Together, grassroots/Internet activists have just moved three major American mountains.
On January 6, we forced an angry Republican-dominated Congress into an unprecedented confrontation with the Truth about Ohio’s stolen election, about dubious vote counts nationwide, and ultimately about an electoral process worthy of zero public trust.
America’s progressive grassroots further showed it could prompt the "democratic wing" of the (…)

Lying Online

I once thought finding a date on the Internet was as easy as ordering a pizza. But when you order a pepperoni pizza, you can be pretty sure you’re not getting anchovies. In cyberspace, however, if you ask for Don Juan, you’re likely to get Don Knotts.
Recently, I was flirting with a guy on the Internet who said he was a great catch. He wasn’t kidding. When I eventually met him in person he looked like a salmon. A few weeks later I met another man online who said he had a (…) -
Best of Bellaciao’s Vote Fraud Links

2 commentsYes a chimp could steal the election, and he did. The evidence below is so outrageous that people are left stunned- they don’t believe it. "This can’t be true- how could the media ignore all of these stories?"
It is true, our media is failing us. Mainstream media ’journalists’ are all careerists concerned more with their personal gain than about the future of the country. Real journalists are uncovering the fraud. People like Bev Harris, Greg Palast, Thom Hartmann, Bob Fitrakis, Harvey (…) -

It’s a movement. It’s a phenomenon. It’s a Web site. Or maybe it’s far more than that. No one can really be sure.
No matter what it is, it’s called http://sorryeverybody.com and it expresses, better than any outpouring so far, a sentiment that’s omnipresent and palpable and still going strong, and every single Democrat and every single Kerry supporter (…) -

Indymedia: the tale of the servers ’nobody’ seized
24 October 2004 par (Open-Publishing)
By John Lettice ( john.lettice at theregister.co.uk )
Nobody seized Indymedia’s servers, apparently. On the 7th October hosting company Rackspace ’acted in compliance’ with a court order and two servers belonging to Indymedia were removed from Rackspace’s premises in London.
But the denials of involvement roll in, the latest coming from UK Home Office minister Caroline Flint, who in answer to Parliamentary questions said: "I can confirm that no UK law enforcement agencies were involved (…) -

13 October 2004 par (Open-Publishing)
Evidence is beginning to mount that the authorities of at least four countries (Switzerland, Italy, U.K. and U.S.A.) are involved in last week’s seizure of two of Indymedia’s servers that brought down more than 20 of the Indymedia network’s web sites and several internet radio streams. Indymedia has yet to receive any official statement or information about what the order entailed or why it was issued.
An FBI spokesperson, Joe Parris, confirmed to Agence France-Presse that the FBI issued a (…) -

8 October 2004 par (Open-Publishing)
2 comments"The FBI issued an order to Rackspace in the US (Indymedia’s provider with offices
in the US and London) to remove physically one of our servers. The order was
so short term that Rackspace had to give away our hard drives in the UK. The
servers hosted numerous local IMCs. If you find a site is down: that might be
the reason"
The servers "ahimsa 2" have the following Indymedias: Nantes, Belgrade,
Liege, Oost-Vlaanderen, Andorra, Euskalherria, Lille, Nice, the U.K., Poland,

Antirep leaflet dealing with photo- an film material on demonstrations and behavior on a possible arrest
by : Indymedia Suisse
Media activism - some reflections
For us to film, to take pictures, to make an interview on a demonstration or during an action is a kind of action like spraying, speaking with megaphone or carrying the reinforced front banner. You’re a part of the demo/action and therefore also responsible for it. Because of that, and especially because your (…)
