    How the Bush Administration is Using Terror Laws to Prosecute Nonviolent Environmental Activists
    Green is the New Red
    By WILL POTTER counterpunch
    The Red Scare was less about evidence than really great PR. Joseph McCarthy and crew flacked one word so relentlessly, so virulently, that it became a political albatross to hang around anyone’s neck.

    It’s the perfect day for a march. Sunny, crisp, clear, spring-like. The sort of day that just gives you hope for no reason at all, though my own hopes are not high for New York’s latest antiwar demonstration. I haven’t received a single email about it. Many people I know hadn’t realized it was happening. I fear the outreach has been minimal (…)

He’s world renown twice over - in his chosen field of linguistics where he’s considered the father of modern linguistics and as a leading voice for equity, justice and peace for over four decades. Although the dominant US corporate media religiously (…)
