Federal Judge Proves High Alert Is Strictly Political
Lloyd Hart
2003-02-11 7:11 PM
Federal Judge Barbara S. Jones has proven herself to be an anti-democratic and constitutionally bankrupt lawyer as well showing her politics in the glaring light of public opinion by ruling against a peace march in New York City scheduled for Saturday the 15th February. Jones's ruling proves beyond a shadow of doubt that the high alert the White House put up last week is strictly political. (text/plain)

GRATEFUL HOMELAND SECURITY THANKS LOCAL MORON FOR REPORTING TERRORIST VALENTINE CARD
KDKA
2003-02-11 2:25 AM
A father alerted authorities after opening a box of valentines that he bought for his 3-year-old daughter; now authorities are crediting his vigilance. Nicholas Poillucci says he was shocked when the box of valentines contained the word "Jihad" -- a word commonly known to Americans as the Muslim word for 'holy war' -- followed by the message, "It's time to be mine." Concerned that the message might contain a hidden terrorist message, Poillucci called authorities. Officials are crediting Poillucci for demonstrating the awareness all Americans should have in the wake of September 11th. (text/plain + 2 comments)

Andrew P. Jones
2003-02-09 11:20 AM
War is possible due largely to the dehumanizing of the act of killing. Iraqis are classed together as being a singular evil person, but they are fellow human beings: people who are loving, scared, brave, and intelligent. They share joy, poetry, and music like us. Alyn ware. (text/plain)

Arundhati Roy's Anti-India Allegations are False
Vrin Parker
2003-02-08 11:14 PM
The description is graphic; the veracity of the incident taken almost for granted coming from a writer of Arundhati Roy's reputation. But, alas, that's where we make the mistake. Fame and honesty are not interlinked as the following paragraphs clearly indicate.

Rest under the stars of martyrs, great tired beast.
And don't worry
they died so you can sleep and not worry

And may your dreams bring you

Everlaalasting peace.
