This is an introduction to a series of articles on propaganda.
The firing of Boeing's CEO, based upon the secret monitoring of his email correspondent with a co-worker/lover, highlights the police-state environment in which most of us now work. Revolution, anyone?
Unbiased federal courts aren't just needed by the ACLU to protect our civil liberties, and by the NAACP to protect our civil rights -- they are the last defense available to anyone who would protect the trees and endangered species in this country from the anti-Earth forces of world capital.

This national conference (March 31st through April 3rd in New York City) will be the first of its kind. It intends to: empower the grassroots; promote discussion and skill sharing; be affordable, accessible, and inclusive; challenge oppression WITHIN the animal rights movement; have an open and participatory structure; develop a broader analysis of the social and economic context of animal oppression; promote abolition, not reform; and support cross-movement alliances.
Ralph Nader told the nation to support Rep. Conyers who is considering moving forward on impeachment hearings. Only people of his state can contact his DC office, emails are filtered.
We are requesting you to boycott the importation of crude oil from Saudi Arabia by corporations which engage in that practice, by supporting and promoting those corporations that do not import crude oil from Saudi Arabia.
Last night, CBS broadcast a piece on the Chilean experience with a privatized Social Security system. Their report, while mentioning some of the pitfalls of the program, was largely a glowing one. Their report stands in stark contrast with a New York Times report in January that starts by noting that the system is "falling far short of what was originally advertised under authoritarian government of Gen Augusto Pinochet."
About 80 farmworkers and 100's of their supporters have converged upon Louisville, KY, home of Yum! brands, the parent company of Taco Bell. Originally, this was to be a yet another mobilization to pressure to Taco Bell into recognizing its role in the supply chain of tomatos.
Even Newt Gingrinch says they have gone too far.
"The House has become a place where trivial issues are debated passionately and important issues not at all."
David Ray Griffin, author of 'The New Pearl Harbgor,' and most recently 'The 9-11 Commission: Omissions and Distortions' will appear live on KBOO Radio March 30, 2005 from 10-11 am during KBOO's Spring Membership Drive.
Amidst the growing momentum of the 2005 Taco Bell Truth Tour and after nearly four years of a national boycott, the CIW and Taco Bell have reached a historic agreement! Join us in Louisville, KY on March 11th & 12th to celebrate this victory and chart the next steps in the fight to end sweatshops in the fields!
"Two brothers own 80 percent of the machines used in the United States," Heinz Kerry said. She identified both as "hard-right" Republicans. She argued that it is "very easy to hack into the mother machines."
We found him in a modest home in a small village and not in a hole as announced," Abou Rabeh said. "We captured him after fierce resistance during which a Marine of Sudanese origin was killed," he said...
He said Saddam himself fired at them with a gun from the window of a room on the second floor. Then they shouted at him in Arabic: "You have to surrender. ... There is no point in resisting."... "Later on, a military production team fabricated the film of Saddam's capture in a hole, which was in fact a deserted well," Abou Rabeh said.
How goes the war on terror, George?
Is Al Qaeda under control? Does the world know peace, freedom and justice? I think I'd say "No" on the whole.
Does anyone have anything more on this story? It seems to be available only in blogs, where it appears to be well documented.
John Kerry is leading a movement in the Senate to force the Senate to hold hearings about the shameful facts concerning child health and medical insurance in the U.S.A. He has 500,000 on-line citizen "co-sponsors" for legislation to try to right the wrongs. We would like to get to 1,000,000 on-line signatures within the next 30 days.
Incongruity
Funny shit. You gotta see it. It made my day.
The Lake Merritt peace walk, dating from 1991, began again in 2001, shortly after 9/11. The weekly demonstration is a Sunday afternoon event which helps to keep the antiwar movement visible in Oakland, California.
A press release regarding an exciting upcoming conference.
Our government is leaving us behind...
posted this awhile back. Hopefully people will now see what the reason forthe post was. Link the new laws covering bankrupcy and debt with the goal to have an enslaved society. We need a slave revolt! Break your chains and head for the masta's house!
Black volunteers for the Army have fallen 41 percent -- from 22.7 percent in 2001 to 13.9 percent as of February 9, 2005. The "U.S. Military Image Study" prepared for the Army, in the inimitable language of marketing experts, offers an unintentionally funny recommendation to the Army in its conclusion: "For the Army to achieve its mission goals with Future Force Soldiers, it must overhaul its image as well as its product offering" . . . because, "[i]n today's reality, the risk/reward ratio is even more out of balance" than usual.
Pre-dried weight is good today
I will make enough to eat twice on Sunday I watch my 'pouty lipped' TV for free sipping all the brown drops squeezed out of a Guatemalan sky...Seven years more till the Mayan calendar runs out
if you talk about torturing people to death you must be an evil liberal!
What Really Happened on September 11 at the Pentagon? Did American Airlines Flight 77, a Boeing 757, crash into the Pentagon?
Sibel Edmonds has rocked this Adminstration. After disclosing spies in the FBI and proving Bush had information prior to September 11th that should have alerted him to the up-coming terrorist attacks, the White House has done everything it could to muzzle her. But her story's coming out: first right here on RADIO INSIDE SCOOP and later on 60 Minutes and in the New York Times and Washington Post.
Forget nukes. Forget laser-guided missiles. Forget cluster bombs. The most powerful weapon in the U.S. arsenal is xenophobia. This ugly trait is possessed by the majority of U.S. citizens and is widely practiced.
help expose the criminals within our own government
Think the white house criminals are not capable?? Better think again!!
Sgrena had the goods on them, the whole bloody litany of crimes perpetrated by the swaggering Texas psychopath and his Pentagon goons. Her interviews with Falluja's refugees put her in a position to spill the beans on Bush's murderous farce and splatter the headlines across Europe with the real picture of what is going on inside Iraq.
A RAY gun which can deliver a bout of excruciating pain to rioters from
a distance of more than two kilometres is being developed by weapons experts in the United States.

"What's missing from News in the United States is the news."
In Need of Thompson's Savage Take By Frank Rich The International Herald Tribune Saturday 05 March 2005
American workers are more educated and literate than ever, but their real wages are below the peak in the mid-1970s.
Here is a Jew talking about the misuse of anti-semetism. I can't wait to see foxnews and the JDL smearing this guy. Maybe they will just focus on Ward Churhill and make sure you never hear about him. This guy could rain on our pro-fascist government's parade like cats and dogs(and is). Meet Norman Finkelstein, targetted for depression and suicide by the fascists, just like his parents.
Thanks to friends in Oregon, the keynote speech that Jeff 'Free' Luers gave
at the 23rd Annual Public Interest Environmental Law Conference *this morning* has been uploaded to http://www.freefreenow.org
Look for bogus terrorist reports to start coming out in the future against these counties. Bush and other corporate criminals should hand for their crimes against humanity.
Using the neo-con takeover as a successful blueprint, we can build another kind of victory, not the victory of the war without end but the end of war, a victory for the people and the Earth.

Where is the wisdom
Embattled Professor Ward Churchill speaks on the controversy over his essay, his treatment by the media and the people calling for his firing, and even execution, for 'treason'. In this hour-long program, Prof. Churchill invites FSTV into his home to tell the side of the story told nowhere else on American television: his side.
Here we have Skolnick going through Gannon's military torture expertise and there is a follow up aside about a murdered judge that is an interesting read. Just another tall tale? Beats anything the mainstream is putting out, fact and/or fiction.
Using the neo-con takeover as a successful blueprint we can build another kind of victory, not the war without end but the end of war - a victory for the people and the Earth,
Other than being peppered with insults both from listeners emails as well as from Art Bell himself to his listeners tonights show went smoothly, Ben Chertoff handled the questions calmly and rationally, shrugging off the answers he was unable to give due to lack of research. Here is a blow by blow report from that Show.
bush working hard
Headline (AP) -- Bush Sets Up Social Security 'War Room'
Bush has set up a "war-room" to make war on the American people. "War" is apparently Bush's way of describing his campaign to dismantle Social Security.
After the last election, millions of us stood in disbelief of the reelection of George Bush. This combined with defeats in the House and the Senate handed the entire government to the GOP.
he Department of the Navy has a Naval Historical Center and its website includes a page entitled "Instances of Use of United States Forces Abroad, 1798 - 1993"

Therein you will find 234 events in which the U.S. military has gone "abroad in search of monsters to destroy" (as John Quincy Adams put it).
Record deficits, colossal debt and no clear plan for digging itself
out. If the U.S. sinks, it will take Canada down with it.
"I have been thinking that I would make a proposition to my Republican friends... that if they will stop telling lies about the Democrats, we will stop telling the truth about them." Adlai Stevenson (Democratic candidate for president in 1952 and 1956)
