    UNSCATHED BY THE INSANITY OF OUR TIMES
    By: April Shenandoah We all talk about freedom, but do we really understand what it is? Most of us could at least say what it is not. Freedom is not: telling Mothers and Fathers how to raise their children - or educate them. Freedom is not: putting American citizens in fear of their own police force (we were told they are our friends). Freedom is not: enforcing rules and regulations that make it almost impossible for good citizens not to break (…)

  • "The Greatest Battles are yet to be Won"
    10 February 2006 par (Open-Publishing)

    At last the truth behind the endless stream of 1984-type propaganda against Iran has finally emerged on the fringes of the British mainstream media (MSM). In the cover story of the current NEW STATESMAN, the well-respected investigative journalist, John Pilger, reveals how the recent manoevrings at the International Atomic Energy Authority and the incessant demonizing of Iran by washed-out quislings like Blair and his ’man-of straw’ Foreign Secretary are nothing more than a campaign to (…)

    On the one hand we have the zombie hoards, (…)

    by Cindy Sheehan Dear Friends,
    As most of you have probably heard, I was arrested before the State of the Union Address tonight.
    I am speechless with fury at what happened and with grief over what we have lost in our country.
    There have been lies from the police and distortions by the press. (Shocker) So this is what really happened:
    This afternoon at the People’s State of the Union Address in DC where I was joined by Congresspersons Lynn Woolsey and John Conyers, Ann Wright, Malik (…)
