There is, let me assure you, nothing more egocentrical than an embattled democracy. It soon becomes the victim of its own war propaganda...(attaching) to its own cause an absolute value which distorts its own vision on everything else. Its enemy becomes the embodiment of all evil. Its own side, on the other hand, is the center of all virtue.
George Kennan

THE SECRETS OF 9-11 SURFACING? OR WHO GOT COZY WITH SARKOZY?
Congressman Kurt Weldon (R. Penn) along with fellow-congressman Hoekstra (R. Penn.) have been now fingered by US French Interpol in making numerous trips to Paris France over the last few years to meet with Israeli Iranian double agents Manchur Ghorbanifar.

Lynne Stewart’s Crime of Courage, Honor and Resisting Tyranny

Lynne Stewart’s Crime of Courage, Honor and Resisting Tyranny - by Stephen Lendman
Years from now, Lynne F. Stewart’s name will be spoken of with even greater reverence than it is today. On October 17, this courageous and redoubtable soft-spoken civil rights defense lawyer was vindicated in the same Foley Square New York federal courtroom where Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were unjustly framed, convicted and sentenced to death in April, 1951 in an act of state-sponsored vengeance for the (…) -

Sentimental Education: Academia Signs Up to Track Down Dissent By Chris Floyd, TO UK Correspondent t r u t h o u t | Report

I.
Why is the United States government spending millions of dollars to track down critics of George W. Bush in the press? And why have major American universities agreed to put this technology of tyranny into the state’s hands?
At the most basic level, of course, both questions are easily answered: 1) Power. 2) (…) -

The United States of America: Born July 4th, 1776 - Died October 17th, 2006
By Mary MacElveen October 17th, 2006
In light of a despot signing ‘The Military Commissions Act of 2006’ into law, it was the day America died. America was born on July 4th, 1976 and died on October 17th, 2006. For a democracy, she died a perilous death at the young age of 230 years old. For six long years she screamed out in pain and while there were some protests, a great majority just stood by and did (…) -
Greenham Common Women’s Peace Camp
17 October 2006 par (Open-Publishing)
by Sarah Meyer
It is the 25th anniversary of Greenham Common Women’s Peace Camp. We lived outside the US base near Newbury, Berkshire, where US Cruise missiles were to be installed. Sometimes there were two or three dozen of us. Sometimes there many more women, especially on weekends and holidays. The first big demonstration, "Embrace the Base,’ brought thousands of women to Greenham. Then Greenham became international. All Greenham gates had women living nearby. Women were supported by (…) -
I Pledge Allegiance to the Corporations... Fascism the American Way

2 commentsBy Jason Miller
Relentless indoctrination by a vast corporate media complex has convinced many that the United States of America is an exceptional nation. Charged with the sacred duty of preserving Pax Americana, the United States is purported to be the embodiment of the ideals of truth, justice and liberty for all.
Before making firm intellectual commitment to such pleasant fictions, consider these questions:
Why is it that virtually every liberal or progressive proposal for (…) -

Congressman, Tim Bishop: “Why Fear a Trial?”
By Mary MacElveen
October 17, 2006
As I attended a debate between Congressman Tim Bishop (D 1st Cong. District, NY) and his Republican challenger, Italo Zanzi: when both were asked of the detainee bill recently approved by Congress which will be signed by Bush today, this is what candidate Zanzi stated that he “doesn’t believe Bush can claim anyone as a terrorist.”
As I read some of contents of this detainee bill which is called ‘Military (…) -

Fear for an individual’s personal security common to a people whose leaders are taking their nation down the road to dictatorship has begun to grip America.
In church this Sunday one man said only half in jest, "When the arrests begin I will (…)
