A report by an Iranian news agency alleges that US and British forces have secretly moved WMDs into Iraq, supposedly to counter claims that they failed to find the original justification for the war on Iraq. [taken from the From the Environmentalists Against War website: envirosagainstwar.org]
This is what Zionist Democracy looks like! The Arab construction workers building the Israeli Knesset building must mark their hardhats with a red "X" so that the Israeli Army snippers can keep better aim on their heads! Read this report from Ynet-online, Israel's biggest paper.
The two events that will reveal the truth will take place in the coming months of 2004. Specifically, between May and the end of October, Bush will miraculously "capture" Osama bin Laden, who has been under surveillance since the start of the Afghan war, held as a trump card for just this purpose, an electoral surge. The other event that will occur between May and October is a second engineered terrorist attack in the US, coordinated by the security apparatus under Bush, similar in magnitude to 9-11, designed to terrify the US public into ceding more authority to Bush and electing him based upon a state of national emergency.

"Must the price of progress be the social degradation of the person to a Pavlovian dog of the market machine?.. The absolutism of the market is not an alternative to the absolutism of the state. We have the task of reinventing the idea of social freedom for the 21st century.."
Earth Defenders often get smeared w/ many labels. It is easy for us (US) to justify our grown men going to war around the globe against little 13 year old boys, we justify this as herorism yet we still must stock pile and test/sell weapons. This man blew the whistle on Israel stockpile of Nuclear weapons. So he is in jail... in solitary confinement! FREE TRE!
One more in the long disgraceful row...
It should come as no surprise that the Iraqi security forces in Falluja are scared half to death.
This Sunni town, 40 miles west of Baghdad, has produced the most violent resistance to America's occupation of Iraq. There have been dozens of fatal attacks on US troops and Iraqi police, who are regarded by many locals as little more than collaborators. In turn, dozens more Iraqi civilians have died in American raids and military operations.
Dear Pres.
I'm writing to you, because I'm not sure who else can help.On Jan 8th 2004 while in Baghdad I was in a c5-b that was hit by a surface to air missile on take off, once we landed we weren't given any kind of medical treatment... This is just a taste... The E-Mail to the president and all text is legit. email me at  george.walker.bush@us.army.mil and I will forward you a copy of it.

The pro-Israel lobby has slipped an anti-Free Speech resolution through the House; This resolution would criminalize criticism of Israeli policies on US college campuses. Contact your Senators today and demand that they vote against H.R.3077, which is an attack on our civil liberties.
The Israeli government has written to the BBC accusing its Middle East correspondent, Orla Guerin, of anti-semitism and "total identification with the goals and methods of the Palestinian terror groups" over a report on a 16-year-old would-be suicide bomber last week.
In her report on Hussam Abdu last week, Guerin noted Israel's desire to gain a public relations advantage from the arrest. She described how the army "paraded the child in front of the international media", and observed that journalists had been prevented from asking him questions and therefore were left only with the army's account of the arrest. The Israeli minister also protested at Guerin's conclusion, as the youth was forced to stand forlornly alone at the checkpoint solely for the photographers, that "this is a picture that Israel wants the world to see". A week earlier, when a 12-year-old boy, Abdullah Quran, was stopped while unwittingly carrying explosives at an army checkpoint, Israeli embassies called news editors to insist they cover the story and warn that failure to do so would be viewed as bias against Israel. When several news organisations failed to report it, an Israeli newspaper called for their correspondents to be expelled, including Sky News' Emma Hurd and Stephen Farrell of the Times. The government emailed the article around the world and reproduced it on official websites. CNN sources say the network has bowed to considerable pressure on its editors. Israeli officials boast that they now have only to call a number at the network's headquarters in Atlanta to pull any story they do not like.
Tre Arrow supporters in the US and Canada are mounting a international effort to flood the The Victoria Island Regional Corrections Center, where Tre is being held in solitary confinement. Tre's incarseration has become a human rights issue, as he is being treated to cruel and inhumane treatment.
Stevedoring Services of America, which recently shortened its name to "SSA Marine," is a multi-national corporation with headquarters in Seattle. War profiteer, privatizer and globalizer, this corporate thug was involved in the police attack at the Oakland docks on April 7, 2003. On the anniversary of that day--let us return to the Port of Oakland to picket SSA.

[Tucson, April 1, 2004] The Turkish Press reported that 41 members of the DHKP-C [Revolutionary People's Liberation Front] http://www.dhkc.net/ have been arrested in Turkey and Europe. The BBC reported the arrest of 53 militants of the DHKP-C. Agenzia Giornalistica Italia [AGI] reported that ten DHKP-C cadre were taken into custody along with Moreno Pasquinelli of the international spokesman of the Anti-Imperialist Camp. Pasquinelli was arrested after he and other anti-imperialist activists arrived at the Rome editorial offices of the Corriere della Sera last night to protest against the Deputy Director of the newspaper Magdi Allam. Maria Grazia Ardizzone, member of the Political Committee of the Anti-imperialist Camp and Alessia Monteverdi were also arrested in the same raid. Other DHKP-C cadre were arrested in Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands. Belgian authorities said they detained eight people.

More Interviews with ex-FBI Translator Sibel Edmonds
Veteran Middle East correspondent Robert Fisk reports live from Baghdad. Fisk describes the "grotesque, gruesome, terrible" attacks in Fallujah, the contracted mercenaries that have infiltrated Iraq: "They swagger in and out with heavy weapons, with automatic weapons and pistols as if they're cowboys" and the deteriorating situation throughout the country: "The violence and the insecurity, the sense of anarchy is greater."

Here in the U.S., there must be a clear, powerful, unmistakable repudiation of everything represented by the Bush clique and their agenda.
It is up to the people to deny--to them, their agenda, and the powerful forces they serve--any right to claim they are acting and speaking for the people of the United States. It is up to the people to challenge their offensive, undermine their support, and prepare conditions to bring about a radically different future.
INTERFAX: Billionaire financier George Soros had glue and water thrown on him by two unidentified people ahead of a human rights forum in Kiev.
BBC: The billionaire philanthropist George Soros got a wet reception in Ukraine when two young men threw water and mayonnaise at him. The incident happened at a human rights conference in the capital, Kiev. The two men were immediately arrested by the police. The radical nationalist group Bratstvo (Brotherhood) claimed responsibility for the attack. The group accused Mr Soros of trying to repeat in Ukraine the Georgia-type "velvet revolution" of last November. Some critics have suggested that Mr Soros' Open Society Institute played a role in the ouster of Georgian President Eduard Shevardnadze, who was forced resigned amid mass public protests.
Were they really "civilians"?
FTAA Talks Collapse in Buenos Aires. The resistance is WINNING!
"The Uzbek government is conducting a merciless campaign against peaceful Muslim dissidents," said Rachel Denber, the acting director of HRW's Europe and Central Asia Division. "The scale and brutality of the operations against independent Muslims makes it clear that these are part of a concerted and tightly-orchestrated campaign of religious persecution."
Both the 319-page report as well as the violence in Tashkent and Bukhara pose major dilemmas for Washington and other Western donors that have treated the Karimov government as a close ally in the US "war on terrorism". Based on five years of research throughout Uzbekistan, including some 200 interviews with victims and their relatives, as well as other witnesses, human rights defenders and government officials, the report notes that independent Muslims are arrested on vague charges of "subversion", "encroachment on the constitutional order", or "anti-state activities", tried "in grossly unfair proceedings", and routinely sentenced to up to 20 years in prison. Those targeted for arrest include people whom the state deems "too pious", a term that may include those who pray at home or wear a beard. The regime has also used mass public denunciations of the families of independent Muslims in which they are paraded before their neighbors to be denounced as "traitors" or "enemies of the state" in demonstrations that recall the Stalin period. In addition, police are known to arrest and torture family members of alleged "extremists" or "Wahhabis" in order to gain their surrender.
At a graduation ceremony for the Iraqi police (the next group of Iraqi targets of the resistance), Mr. Bremer told these men that the dead occupiers in Iraq had "not died in vain." The GIs who were killed were fulfilling an obligation they may have regretted they ever made. Dying for a cause you don't believe in is a hard thing to do.
As for the others, they didn't die in vain either; they died in Iraq for a big paycheck. These guys weren't innocent bystanders, mind you. They worked for Blackwater Security Consulting and were most likely looking for trouble. This firm is one of the many nominally private companies doing the US government's dirty work in Iraq and elsewhere around the world where Washington thinks its direct involvement might cause even more problems than that caused by so-called civilians. Like most other firms of this nature, Blackwater (and I quote from their website) "has it roots in the Special Operations community and continues to sustain the skills that have been acquired over the years as effective tools that will support both national and commercial objectives." In addition, it maintains offices in McLean, Virginia very near the CIA headquarters. In other words, the men that they hire are trained killers.
The four "civilians" killed, burned, and dragged through the streets of Fallujah, Iraq, were employees of Blackwater Security Consulting, a rural North Carolina subsidiary of Blackwater USA, one of several dozen firms taking over the duties of the regular American military in Iraq, protecting buildings and grounds as well as officials.

Tre Talks Today About Mistreatment At Hands of Jailors
Countless eyes were glued to the days of public testimony on March 23 and 24 before the "National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States." The ten-member panel grilled policymakers from the Bush team and the previous Clinton administration. There were angry outbursts and finger-pointing. For days, charges and countercharges echoed back and forth outside the commission hearing--through the power structure and the intensifying electoral arena.
The press didn't grasp that the joke was on them.
The four civilians who were killed and dragged through the streets of an Iraqi town Wednesday worked for a North Carolina subcontractor that is providing security in a hostile area of Iraq. Blackwater Security Consulting provides security training and guard services to customers around the world. It is one of five subsidiaries of Blackwater USA, based in northeastern North Carolina about a half-hour's drive from the world's largest naval base in Norfolk, Virginia.

Occupied Iraq is suffering a new brain drain as intellectuals flood out of the country to avoid unemployment and an organised killing campaign.
I found this poem which appears to be anonymous. I was looking for the beautiful Diane Pattersons' lyrics. I was not able to find them but I hope that one day I will. If you come across her art work grab it. Her music is fabulous and she is so wonderful in concert. Free Tre! Human abuse and torture of our international prisoner must not be tolerated!
I've heard that these four "contractors" were private soldiers. It's also worth noting that only days before this incident nine Fallujah were killed by U.S. Marines, which has not been reported in the U.S. media.
Israel/Occupied Territories: Children must not be used by armed groups
On Thursday, March 25, after nearly three days of deliberation, a jury in King County Superior Court found Mezquia guilty of felony murder for the brutal July 7, 1993, rape and strangulation of rising punk rock star Zapata, lead singer for local band the Gits.
VRCC denies Tre the right to visit with CBC, other media because of his Hunger Strike
WASHINGTON, March 31 (UPI) -- In the first year of war in Iraq, the military has made 18,004 medical evacuations during Operation Iraqi Freedom, the Pentagon's top health official told Congress Tuesday.

The really big unanswered question of September 11, 2001 is this: Once it became obvious that at least four passenger jets had been hijacked--at one point that Tuesday morning, Clarke says the FAA thought it had as many as "eleven aircraft off course or out of communications"--why didn't our government intercept them?
