    The airwaves and the headlines are full of talk of a U.S. military strike against Iran. That is as it should be - the danger of such a reckless move is real, and rising, and we should be talking about it. The Bush administration claims that negotiations are their first choice.

    04/18/06 "Boston Globe" — - The great liberator of Iraq was actually the hyena that cleaned out the nation.
    Piece by piece, Halliburton over here, a corrupt company over there, we have heard various individual cases of overcharging and fraud by American firms in the reconstruction of Iraq. Last weekend, a Globe story connected some of the dots of (…)

    Growing popularity of Sufism in Iran
    Roxana Saberi
    BBC News Tehran
    The lights are dimmed in a home in northern Tehran. The men, women and teenagers gathered in the large living room close their eyes and rock back and forth to the beat of live music.
    As the tambourine and drums beat louder and faster, some members of the group climb to their feet. They begin to swirl slowly in circles and raise their hands to the ceiling. A few fall into trances.
    "You can somehow touch relaxation," (…)

This has led many to believe that he is merely a creation of Pentagon propagandists working with their agents in the western press. Colonel Derek Harvey strengthened those suspicions last week when he admitted in a Washington Post article that the military intentionally “enlarged (…)

    War, Death & Destruction: Enough Already!
    Ok, we’ve had enough! This talk of nukes has forced us to take action. It’s time to ship the neo-cons, supporting military, terrorists, war profiteers, like minded leaders and all the gung-ho proponents for war, death and destruction to Siberia or, better yet, to one of the icy poles to duke it out. (Too bad the space option isn’t ready yet)
    The rest of us want to be left alone! We have lives to live, and frankly the daily (…)
