[Some snippets of comments to the article: "this thing here" wrote: name a single country on the face of this earth that has a purely capitalist economy....it's impossible... now, like a gigantic flashing red light trying to tell us something, perhaps we should all notice how a vast majority of the economies on this planet are mixed to one degree or another. even america's... "Konrad Adenauer" responded: ...I don't consider myself a doctrinaire follower of any "ism" of any variety. However, I think it's important to avoid simplistic mantras of any sort in economics or politics. While few people today would embrace simplistic Marxist slogans of the sort that were the stock in trade of the East Bloc authoritarian regimes, plenty of people are willing to assume that capitalism as we know it today is some kind of natural, inevitable state of affairs, or even that "it's always been this way." And it's even more important to disabuse ourselves of the airy fairy tales of capitalist propaganda of the sort that Marx debunked more than a century ago but that live on alive and well in the imaginations of millions to this day, than it is to ward off the dangers of left "utopianism."]
Amazing ... Kathy Kelly finally finds jail time for protesting the School of the Americas ...
After all the public work that she's done in Iraq. Too bad really, she should be in Iraq not prison, seeking imprisonment for her work there not here ... ???
Whispers of "revolution" are growing louder in Baghdad this month at teahouses, public protests and tribal meetings as Iraqis point to the past as an omen for the future.
Iraqis remember 1920 as one of the most glorious moments in modern history, one followed by nearly eight decades of tumult. The bloody rebellion against British rule that year is memorialized in schoolbooks, monuments and mass-produced tapestries that hang in living rooms. Now, many say there's an uncanny similarity with today: unpopular foreign occupiers, unelected governing bodies and unhappy residents eager for self-determination. The result could be another bloody uprising.
A good friend of mine- and exlover, used to sing these lyrics to me over and over when we were traveling. It would make me laugh and laugh. I would be grinning cheek to cheek trying to join in and sing the lyrics to this song with him. Our dimples mirroring each other we still couldn't keep the same rythm. He had a perfect Jello Biafra imitation, I had something else all together. Anyway this song is so funny, from the title to the last line. My favorite line is, show your grandson who's the boss. I invite people to share your lyrics, with the movement...

Fundamentalism has Spawned an Ideology of American Supremacy
Just about everyone with a 401(k) pension plan or mutual fund has money invested in companies that are doing business in so-called rogue states. In other words, there are U.S. companies that are helping drive the economies of countries like Iran, Syria and Libya that have sponsored terrorists.
The Jewish settler population grew by more than 5000 in the first half of 2003, Israel said on Thursday. The increase comes despite peace moves requiring Israel to halt construction in the settlements. The interior ministry said 5415 Israelis had moved to the new settlements since January, with the ultra-Orthodox West Bank settlement of Beitar Illit seeing the largest jump of more than 1000 newcomers.

Uranium is the modern day broken treaty with the American Indians. Actually there are so many ways that we attack and try to dessiminate the Indian movement today. Our government would love to see direct representational democracy die, and this is what many small tribes had. As long as we see a people who have a center, a people who develope community above hierarchy, we have fear of them. Technology is assaulting native communities.

Arlo was arrested on March 27, 2003 as he was seen walking down Colfax Avenue by a Denver, Colorado police detective, Abe Alonzo, following a federal grand jury indictment on charges of being involved in the death of Anna Mae Pictou Aquash, a member of the Micmaq First Nation of Nova Scotia, Canada, whose body was found on the Pine Ridge Reservation in February of 1976, 27 years ago.
Global oil production is expected to peak in about 2010. It's downhill from there fast unless decisive action is taken at the national level to create an alternative energy infrastructure. Even then, it's not looking good.
with all the naieve enthusiasm for sapce travel, few consider the problems this new venture is creating. Will a clean space be sustainable? Or will it come to resemble our oceans: a place filling up with human debris?
THERE IS A HUGE MOTIVATOR TO REMOVE THEM WITHOUT BILLLIONS IN COST: In other words, the motivation to take them down illegally was VERY HIGH. So, when you put 2 and 2 togther with other known connections (US secret police to both the failed 1993 and successful 2001 attempts to INTENTIONALLY take them down)---explains a lot about FBI/CIA being in on both of these these illegal attempts at demolition in 1993 and 2001: a) 1993 bombing created with a fake cover context of "arab terrorism" to take them down, is very similar to the b) 2001 fake context of "arab terrorism" in 2001--except that a lot more interests had time to simmer for 8 more years and many more ideas were bundled into the 2001 WTC demolitions. In this later case, the cover story was elaborated---even adapted--from existing Arab terror plans. The US made sure it was done 'right. By 'right, I mean it was to be a useful example of how state terror could help out the Bush family interests consolidate power: 2001 version of illegal demolition of the WTCs extended into a cause for global war by adding in 'the icing on the WTCs cake'--fake hits on the Pentagon and other potential DC targets (fourth plane failed to reach its target, though would have). They said it themselves, they were ready with the shadow government that very day. Personally, this is the second statement from this team that I believe I have read. I have read a statement by an architect who was dismissed from this or a similar team. This is the statement from the 'accidental photographer,' accidentally included into the group in 1988.

KIRKUK, Iraq (news - web sites) — This fabled city of muddy streets and hidden guns, where one person's folklore is another's atrocity, has U.S. officials concerned that ethnic tensions could ignite a civil war and spoil plans for a unified Iraq.

no time to translate the following article ... a synopsis ...
Experts hotly debate which diseases may truly be caused by vitamin D deficiency. Nevertheless the extent of the evidence and its consistency makes a powerful case for D-deficiency being an important cause of over a dozen chronic diseases and almost as many cancers.
"If a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without His notice, is it probable that an empire can rise without His aid?"
I suggest we choose by some means two of the major corporations that are profiting from the destruction of Iraq. We could then list every project they are involved in. We could locate their offices in every city and every country across the world. We could go after them. We could shut them down. [ANY TAKERS THAT THIS MEANS SHUTTING DOWN HALLIBURTON, AS A SUGGESTION. WHAT WOULD BE ANOTHER?] It's a question of bringing our collective wisdom and experience of past struggles to bear on a single target. It's a question of the desire to win. The Project for the New American Century seeks to perpetuate inequity and establish American hegemony at any price, even if it's apocalyptic. The World Social Forum demands justice and survival. For these reasons, we must consider ourselves at war.

Secretary of State Colin Powell held out the possibility Saturday that prewar Iraq may not have possessed weapons of mass destruction... "What was it?" he asked. "One hundred tons, 500 tons or zero tons?"... "It's going to take some additional... time in order to look in all the cubby holes...," Cheney said. "It doesn't take a large storage space to store deadly toxins..."
Two human rights groups have issued a searing indictment of the U.S. military's system for compensating Iraqi civilians victimized by American troops.
