SPIELBERG ON "MUNICH" (the movie - a review) Professor Asad Abu-Khalil 2005-12-31 1:18 PM
But of course, the kinds of folks who push an ideology that required the expulsion of three-quarters-of-a-million Palestinians from their lands, and then lied about it, claiming there had been no such persons to begin with (as with Golda Meir’s infamous quip), can’t be expected to place a very high premium on truth. -- Tim Wise, anti-racist, anti-Zionist, Jewish-American activist, essayist & public speaker (text/plain + 4 comments)

Hookers, Hoopla, Handshakes and Handouts: Annual 'Pigsylvania Society' Ball Rages On Steve Peacock 2005-12-16 6:12 AM
The annual Pennsylvania Society bash at the Waldorf-Astoria hotel in New York City this past weekend was – just it has been for more than a century – the epicenter of organized gluttony and bribery-made-legal for commonwealth lawmakers and industry barons. Pa. Senate President Pro Tempore Robert C. Jubelirer shrugs off such characterizations, and sees the event instead as an opportunity to simply “ let your hair down a bit,” according to a Dec. 11 AP report. However, as a former plainclothes security officer working near the Waldorf, I can say with certainty that streetwalkers and call-girls will have joined at least some of these corporate and bureaucratic bigwigs as they let their hair down.

SANTA CRUZ, CA – According to a document obtained by NBC News, the Pentagon has been spying on 1,500 “suspicious incidents,” including anti-war and counter-recruitment meetings and actions throughout the nation over the past 10-month period. Among the first pages of more than 400 released, 10 college anti-war protests were listed, including UC Santa Cruz Students Against War (SAW)’s counter-recruitment protest of April 5, 2005, which was the only one to be labeled both credible and a “threat.” (image/jpeg)

Execution of Stanley "Tookie" Williams duko 2005-12-13 8:46 PM
California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger coldly and callously refused to grant him clemency, saying that “the facts do not justify overturning the court decision.” Even though Tookie Williams had changed and became a very outspoken advocate against gang violence and for peace. They showed him no mercy. But it is deeper than this. In a highly political statement, Schwarzenegger also said that Tookie Williams' 1998 book Life In Prison was “dedicated to people like Assata Shakur, Mumia Abu Jamal” and particularly “Black militant George Jackson” which, according to Schwarzenegger, “is a significant indicator that Williams is not reformed and that he still sees violence and lawlessness as legitimate means to address societal problems.” (text/html)

GAO Report CONFIRMS Stolen 2004 Presidential Election Messenger 2005-11-17 7:29 PM
The latest critical confirmation of key indicators that the election of 2004 was stolen comes in an extremely powerful, penetrating report from the Government Accountability Office that has gotten virtually no mainstream media coverage. The GAO findings are particularly damning when set in the context of an election run in Ohio by a Secretary of State simultaneously working as co-chair of the Bush-Cheney campaign. Far from what election theft skeptics have long asserted, the GAO findings confirm that the electronic network on which 800,000 Ohio votes were cast was vulnerable enough to allow a a tiny handful of operatives -- or less -- to turn the whole vote count using personal computers operating on relatively simple software.

This civilization is rotten to the core... Seven Star Hand 2005-11-11 9:07 PM
Most people have no idea that the common-denominator math of all the world's currencies forms an endless loop that generates debt faster than we can ever generate the value to pay for it. Those who scoff at this analysis have simply failed to do the math. Consequently, this civilization is verifiably based on purposeful and institutionalized deception, coercion, and exploitation. The time is long overdue to change the human equation and end the root causes of most injustice and suffering. (text/plain)

Feds let Niger Forgery (forgeries, see photos) pass. What else? 9/11? Clayton Hallmark 2005-11-10 7:43 PM

The Bush administration exploited FAKE intelligence to sell Congress on the Iraq war. FAKE intelligence, not faulty intelligence. We show photos of the forgeries here and point out the glaring errors in them, so you can see for yourself. The CIA and intelligence community let the forgeries slip by until after the war started. Then Joe Wilson exposed the forgeries, and his wife, Valerie Plame, got outed to pay him back and shut him up. WHAT ELSE DID THEY LET SLIP BY? 9/11 MAYBE? (image/jpeg)
