    Afghanistan Is No One’s War By John Chuckman July 10, 2006 A summary of events leading to the invasion of Afghanistan is helpful. Following 9/11, the Taliban government said it would extradite Osama bin Laden if the U.S. could produce evidence against him. This is the approach taken by the courts of every Western country when extradition is requested.
    The U.S. either could not or would not produce any evidence, yet it insisted the Taliban was behaving in bad faith and harboring (…)

    Racism, the ideology that came into full flower as a justification for European conquest of most of the planet, is now headquartered in the United States - with an annex in Israel. Tel Aviv is a very active annex.
    There could be no justification for George Bush’s aggressions, without the underlying assumptions of racial superiority. Bush has committed multiple crimes against peace - a capital Nuremburg offense for which a number of Nazis were hanged. He is a war criminal, many times over. (…)

    Israel Using The Extremists As An Excuse To Avoid Negotiations Gwynne Dyer, Arab News Sunday, 9, July, 2006 The Europeans have rediscovered their backbones. “The EU condemns the loss of lives caused by disproportionate use of force by the Israeli Defense Forces and the humanitarian crisis it has aggravated,” said Finnish Prime Minister Matti Vanhanen, whose country holds the EU’s rotating presidency, on Friday. The Swiss were even blunter, condemning what Israel is doing in the Gaza Strip (…)

    our Army’s more loose
    we still don’t want gays
    or girls in men’s shoes.
    But we now appeal to illegal types
    who’ve recently crawled through
    underground pipes.
    We reach out to coke-heads and winos for sure
    and also are hiring insane without cure.
    Did you notice, pal, today in the news?
    the Army is now getting skinheads in crews?
    Our proud military accepts White Supreme guys
    militias and Nazis, yes they’re on the rise!
    Truly the phrase, "Be all you can be" (…)
