  • Arrest that man!

    I’d like to request that the Washington, D.C. police arrest G.W. Bush for criminal negligence, aggravated voyeurism, illegally deporting 150,000 American citizens to kill and be killed in a foreign country, and holding American and foreign citizens hostage without charging them with anything and withholding their civil and legal rights.
    There is also probable cause that this individual has authorized torturing citizens around the world. If he is not arrested immediately, the chances of (…)

  • The End of ’Unalienable Rights’

    Every American school child is taught that in the United States, people have “unalienable rights,” heralded by the Declaration of Independence and enshrined in the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights. Supposedly, these liberties can’t be taken away, but they are now gone.
    Today, Americans have rights only at George W. Bush’s forbearance. Under new legal theories - propounded by Supreme Court nominee Samuel Alito and other right-wing jurists - Bush effectively holds all power over all (…)

    What were a cadre of Sudanese People Liberation Army rebels doing on the morning of 9/11 ? Posing as journalists they dropped by the Florida resort where US president George W. Bush was staying - just hours before Bush and his entourage arrived at Booker Elemmentary where he received word that the 9/11 attacks had commenced .
    SPLA was a Christian fundamentalist /neoconservative backed rebel group . lead by John Garang, attempting to seize power in Khartoum. These "journos" were (…)

    CONSIDERATION
    By Peter Fredson
    January 24, 2006
    I wonder if President George Bush has ever thought about what his actions reflect, or what consequences will result? Does Bush ever deliberate, reflect, or contemplate? Does he ever recite a little mantra to help his mind instruct his body? Does Bush ever show concern, compassion, respect, sympathy toward other people, other cultures, other religions?
    Although I have been a Bush watcher for several years I find no trace of concern for (…)

    Why Not Test Bin Laden’s "Truce" Offer? By Douglas A. Borer January 24, 2006 Edition MONTEREY, CALIF. - One of the hardest decisions a president of the United States is obligated to make is that of going to war. It is a decision, however, that pales in comparison to the degree of difficulty in making peace when one’s enemy remains unvanquished. With the release of Osama bin Laden’s latest media communiqué offering a truce to the US, President Bush must decide whether to stick to the (…)

  • RUSSIA’S NEW NGO LAW: A CONTRARY VIEW
    25 January 2006 par (Open-Publishing)

    By William Fisher
    Virtually all human rights groups have condemned Russia’s new law governing non-governmental organizations, but the leader of one major NGO disagrees.
    “Although the parliament has softened somewhat its original draconian bill, the legislation still obliges offices of foreign NGOs to inform the government registration office about their projects for the upcoming year, and about the money allotted for every specific project. Russian government officials would have an (…)

    By Bill Gallagher
    DETROIT — The radical blabbermouths reverberating in the "shout politics" forums found great opportunities in Osama bin Laden’s latest communication. They bowed to our low expectations of their work as they spread fear and lies and tried to protect President George W. Bush from any criticism, while the al-Qaeda leader hurled more threats. Only traitors challenge our noble leader in these perilous times. We are in a war! Wake up, America!
    With the season of Lent just (…)

  • Mary MacElveen: Let the second American Revolution begin!

    by Mary MacElveen
    To my readers around the globe, this column addresses former US Vice President Al Gore’s speech to the nation in defense of the United States Constitution and the Bill of Rights ... these documents are the foundations that we as a civil society live by and whereby everyone must live under the rule of law.
    I thought it wise that Al Gore chose to give this speech on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday since he was a moral and just man whose life was cut short by an (…)

    "He is claiming absolute power that no one in American history has ever claimed. This cannot stand," said Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y.
    "If you’re dealing with what appears to be a criminal conspiracy by the president, the vice president, the attorney general and others, you cannot ask the attorney general and the people under him to fairly investigate," Nadler said. "Obviously, they will dismiss this out of hand because they will not admit how real this is.
    "I want to be absolutely clear, (…)

    SOME BASIC PROBLEMS WITH GEORGE W. BUSH
    By Peter Fredson
    January 24, 2006
    Like many Americans, I have spent much time in the past 5 years trying to figure out who George Bush is, how in the world he was considered to be Presidential Material, what he is trying to do, and why his character shows so many flaws but yet his supporters are willing to forgive, overlook, or disbelieve any of his negative elements.
    Any analysis is difficult as he surely does not act alone, or with ordinary (…)
