The Pentagon has dropped charges against a man alleged to have been the "20th hijacker" in the September 11 attacks, his US military defence lawyer has said.
Mohammed al-Qahtani, who is being held at a US military jail at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, was one of six men facing murder and war crimes charges for their alleged roles in the 2001 attacks.
Many of us went up to Seattle to fight the FCC, knowing all along that the deck was stacked. They wanted to hand over a huge victory to the corporate police state: They wanted to allow anyone with enough riches to take control over all of the media they want. That means, they would have been able to control what we see, hear, learn, and think. And they had the votes to override the voices of millions of citizens who opposed the plan. ...Or so they thought.
on tonight's newscast to tell how--in most predictable fashion--that the 2
recent cop killings were necessary, totally justifiable, etc. etc. as he looks the viewing audience in the eye with his steely eyes that suggest a manic on the loose?
"Fecal matter and syringes"
The sheer lack of representation in our government, Local, State, and Federal, has many up in arms as to what can be done. Here are just a few suggestions!
WASHINGTON - Pressed by the demands of the "global war on terrorism", the United States is violating an international protocol that forbids the recruitment of children under the age of 18 for military service, according to a new report released Tuesday by a major civil rights group that charged that recruitment practices target children as young as 11 years old.0514 01 1
The 46-page report, "Soldiers of Misfortune", which was prepared by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) for submission to the U.N. Committee on the Rights of the Child, also found that the U.S. military disproportionately targets poor and minority public school students.

On May 10, the MOVE organization and supporters gathered at 11th and Market to protest the imprisonment of the MOVE 9, on the 23rd anniversary of the May 13, 1985 bombing of the MOVE's West Philadelphia home.
Third political parties do not compete on a level playing field in U.S. politics; the corporate media will spend more money in one day, promoting the campaigns of Senators John McCain, Barack Obama and Hilary Clinton, than the amount of money third political parties will spend in one year to promote their candidates, combined. While third party candidates are spending hundreds and thousands of dollars on flyers and brochures, big corporations are spending millions to keep the names of their candidates in the public's view.

On May 1, the day of his book's release, author J. Patrick O'Connor was interviewed at Philadelphia City Hall about "The Framing of Mumia Abu-Jamal." In part three of this interview, he condemns the recent decision by the PA Parole Board denying parole for the three remaining MOVE 9 women.

The task force members come from prestigious universities, medical groups, the military and government agencies. They include the Department of Homeland Security, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Department of Health and Human Services. The proposed guidelines are designed to be a blueprint for hospitals "so that everybody will be thinking in the same way" when pandemic flu or another widespread health care disaster hits, said Dr. Asha Devereaux. She is a critical care specialist in San Diego and lead writer of the task force report.
Today's commonsense is tomorrow's absurdity.
Aboslut Vodka appeases Anglo-Americans after they throw a tantrum over a politically inspirational (and honest) ad.
These are notes taken from today's sentencing hearing for Eric McDavid. The author truly believes based on observing the trial ever so slightly, reading the defense motions and the recent juror affidavits, that FBI puppet Anna entrapped Eric. I also read the Elle article about snitch Anna. One also thinks that the FBI needed this case to justify their fat budgets to congress post 9/11. Cointelpro never disappeared.
To the goons who work for the FBI, Who Bombed Judi Bari, was it agent Doyle? Do FBI agents know who Hill and Knowlton is? Who killed Rachel Carson?
Just caught this from the corporate media.

FBI Withdraws Unconstitutional National Security Letter After ACLU and EFF Challenge Gag Order Lifted on Internet Archive, Allowing Founder to Speak Out for First Time
Sentencing is on for Thursday, May 8
We've had one too many Clinton, and two too many Bushes. Clinton is pure status quo -- on the take with payola from Israel (AIPIC), the politician Michael Moore identifies as most on the take from big medicine. She voted for the war... and as recently as this spring said she wouldn't get out of Iraq by 2010.
It appears that the sea lions found dead were not shot.

In part two of this interview, J. Patrick O'Connor discusses the March 27 ruling by the US Third Circuit Court of Appeals denying Mumia a new guilt-phase trial. In his book, O'Connor felt strongly that Mumia would be granted a new trial, and in light of the contrary ruling, he argues that the court made a political decision and actually went against court precedent to do this.

Our systemic service discrepancies, and the social and psychological result of long-term economic discrimination.
Part 2 will cover potential solutions and alternatives to the homeless services so that they can work.
A new website, CauseCaller.com, created by Fred Benenson for his Master Thesis, puts professional campaign technology into your hands. It is a free web application that automates the process of building a phone bank to contact elected representatives. It is Open Source, and incredibly easy to use.
Now that the financial clouds have lifted a bit, the pushback against sensible regulation is in full swing. Wall Street did an end run around regulation. There's every reason to believe that the next crisis will be bigger still-and that the Fed wont have enough duct tape.
What primarily motivates US foreign policy-economic interests or a religious mission consciusness?? A special world view is added to the economic interets. In this perspective, economic liberalism brings political freedom. Both lead to peace which intensifies free trade.
On May 1, every port on the West Coast of the United States was shut down to demand an end to the U.S. war and occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan. The historic May Day walkout by the International Longshore and Warehouse Union (ILWU) is the first time ever that an American union has struck against a U.S. war. The union ranks defied the rulings of an arbitrator, who twice ordered them to go to work. They overcame the capitulations of the ILWU leadership, which didn't want the work stoppage in the first place, tried to water it down and cowered before the threats of legal action while waving the flag. The employers' Pacific Maritime Association (PMA) declared the May 1 port shutdown an "illegal strike." But after all the huffing and puffing from the bosses' mouthpieces, the dock workers pointed the way to defeating the imperialist war by mobilizing working-class power. In the end, it was more than a work stoppage. The dock workers' May Day strike against the war was a first step, a show of what it will take to bring down the warmongers in Washington. Their "symbolic" action was felt all the way to Iraq, where dock workers in two ports stopped work in solidarity with the ILWU. But it was only a beginning. What is needed is not only industrial action but a political offensive against the Democrats and Republicans, the partner parties of American imperialism, to build a class-struggle workers party.
Here you go....

The recent action taken by President Bush and the Feds, to reduce the time that 130 million Americans will need to wait before receiving their welfare checks, is another indication of the critical state the U.S. economy is now experiencing. Socialists believe it is necessary to create good paying jobs for working people rather than mailing millions of people a one time welfare check. Socialists have called for higher minimum wages and developing socially useful jobs for all working people.
Americans need a constitutional amendment making affordable universal health care a constitutional right.
The campaign against animal torture at the University of California-Berkeley continues on, despite the "terrorist" label being thrown at the activists, and the passage of AB 2296 (California Animal Enterprise Protection Act), which makes it a crime to run a campaign of this nature.
Palfrey made it clear she had no intention of suicide, and warned she may be killed in this manner by powerful men threatened by her 'black book'. She just so happen to mention Cheney as a possible client.

During this current war, over <b>4,000 tons</b> of munitions have been expended, so the D.U. poisoning is at lethal stages now. How much contaminated sand has the military stored already at this Idaho facility? Prepare to be shocked.
<b>" 'We've received tens of thousands of tons from the U.S. military that has higher radioactive levels than this shipment'</b>, Hyslop said." How many "tens of thousands of tons" have been stored there already? We may never know.
