  • Camp Casey: Day 6
    13 August 2005 par (Open-Publishing)
    3 comments

    Day 6 began early yesterday morning when people in cars drove by our camp a few times and blasted on their horns. I just assume they were blaring their approval of us.
    Before we get to the less than negative things that are happening out at Camp Casey and in the world at large, over 700 people showed up at the Camp yesterday. There were more people, flowers, cards, mail, interviews, laughter, heartache, camaraderie, excitement, and just sheer work.
    We had the first birthday party last (…)

    CAMP CASEY, TX (Part One) Thursday is only a few minutes young, but Cindy Sheehan is already running late. Rumors are percolating that police will swoop into Camp Casey at midnight to arrest everyone, and she dare not be late for a date like that. So she says, “I really have to go now,” and takes her leave from the soft light and murmur of the Crawford Peace House lawn. Before she goes however she does have time to say that her fever is getting a little better.
    Among the (…)

    Today started at 4am when the rain started blowing into my tent and my head and my feet started getting soaked then thunder and lightening came over my tent. I was really frightened for my life, so I abandoned ship and went into Crawford.
    By the time we made our way through the floods and got into Crawford, I had a fever, sore throat, and bad headache. So I was made to rest and not have any interviews until noon.
    We had a little bit of trouble with locals today. We are (…)

    Reporter suggests Brynes discovered plan to turn nuke exercise into staged terror attack
    by Paul Joseph Watson & Alex Jones
    The head of Fort Monroe’s Training and Doctrine Command, four star general Kevin P. Byrnes, was fired Tuesday apparently for sexual misconduct according to official sources.
    Other sources however have offered a different explanation for Byrnes’ dismissal which ties in with the Bush administration’s unpopular plan to attack Iran and the staged nuclear attack in (…)

  • No Sympathy for the Neocons : Mick Jagger runs with the ’neocon’ meme

    The news that the Rolling Stones are coming out with a song called "Sweet Neocon" that takes the administration to task for its Iraq war policy is ... music to my ears:
    "You call yourself a Christian, I call you a hypocrite/ You call yourself a patriot. Well, I think your are full of sh*t!... How come you’re so wrong, my sweet neo-con."
    Wrong? Neocons? They’ll never admit it, although the whole world knows it.
    That’s a defining characteristic of these (…)

  • Like Nagasaki, August 9 is an orphan of history

    by Harvey Wasserman
    And in that history, new, definitive evidence has finally surfaced that the atomic bombing there was completely unjustified.
    More than 80,000 human beings perished in Nagasaki three days after at least that many died in Hiroshima.
    The Bomb that destroyed this historic city was made of plutonium (Hiroshima’s was uranium).
    Whatever the case for nuking Hiroshima, it was far weaker for Nagasaki.
    The US had already shown it had this ultimate weapon. It showed it was (…)

  • Depleted uranium is WMD

    by Leuren Moret
    My grandfather, U.S. Army Col. Edwin Joseph McAllister, was born in Battle Creek in 1895. He does not know that his first grandchild is an international expert on depleted uranium. I have worked in two U.S. nuclear weapons laboratories, and in 1991 I became a whistleblower at the Livermore lab. Depleted uranium is very, very, very nasty stuff: Depleted uranium (DU) weaponry meets the definition of weapon of mass destruction in two out of three categories under U.S. Federal (…)

    Back in the 60s you could say two things about Navy and Air Force veteran Dick Underhill: he liked to do the work that nobody else wanted to do, and he was a Goldwater Republican. Today as Underhill shuttles in and out of Crawford, Texas, running supplies and tending to lists of things to do in support of Cindy Sheehan, you could still say he likes to do the work that nobody else wants to do, but you couldn’t call him a Goldwater Republican anymore.

    When Robert DeLozier saw the story of Cindy Sheehan on television Sunday, he told his spouse right away: “I’m going up there. We have to drop everything and go.” At the Sam’s Club of all places, says Robert, he nearly broke down crying while he was shopping Monday morning thinking about what Sheehan was doing in memory of her son Casey, who was killed in Iraq last April.
    “She’s a strong woman,” says Robert via cell phone as he drives back home Monday night. “She feels she (…)
