    HOW José Dionisio "Bloodbath" Esquivel and Virgilio Paz Romero were able to personally express their gratitude to their master . As CIA head, George Bush Sr. never had to explain his role in this dirty story of murder and disinformation . A few weeks before September 11, President Bush released two dangerous terrorists, who are also CIA collaborators and CANF mercenaries

  • American Militarism, Part 2: On Celebrating Militaristic Nationalism
    8 July 2005 par (Open-Publishing)

    Around this time last year, I was corresponding regularly with a globe-trotting Viennese Jewish linguist who was visiting Oklahoma City. She wrote from there about being deeply unnerved by the live and televised celebrationsthat she’d seen during our "Fourth Of July" holiday, because they vividly reminded her of 1930s Germany, both as described by her older relatives and as captured by Leni Riefenstahl’s propaganda films.
    This year, her astute observations came to mind as I watched the (…)

  • U.S. Rep. Maurice Hinchey Presses for Iraq Probe
    8 July 2005 par (Open-Publishing)

    NEW PALTZ - The Downing Street memos, a series of communications that some say proves the Bush administration fabricated its justification for the war in Iraq, should be the subject of a full-blown Congressional inquiry, U.S. Rep. Maurice Hinchey told the crowd assembled for a presentation on the memos on the SUNY New Paltz campus Thursday night.
    But the lack of checks and balances in the "monolithic" government, in which both the Congress and Senate favor the administration, will make (…)

  • Deceits enervate an Iraq exit
    8 July 2005 par (Open-Publishing)

    WASHINGTON — President George W. Bush’s latest attempt to justify his Iraq policy with a televised address to America comes as more evidence emerges that the invasion of Iraq was a war of choice. In arguing that the United States must persevere because Iraq has become "a central front in the war on terror," he sounds like the man who kills his parents and then throws himself on the mercy of the court for being an orphan.
    It has long been evident that leading administration officials (…)

  • I never thought I’d miss Nixon
    8 July 2005 par (Open-Publishing)

    It’s starting to get hot in Tucson, Arizona. Really hot. This July, it’s the political climate that is starting to sizzle, and it’s starting to be very apparent here in Arizona, the armpit of the Red States. Republicans and Democrats alike seem to be fed up with the lies that have been told to us by the current administration. Lies about the US winning the war in Iraq, lies about the number of war dead, lies about the number of soldiers critically wounded and maimed for life, lies about (…)

    Daryl Anderson, 22 I’m from Lawton, Ky.
    I was stationed in Eastern Germany with the Army. On Jan. 15, 2004, my contingent was sent to Iraq. We stayed in Baghdad for seven months, where I was wounded and awarded a Purple Heart.
    After that I was sent back to Germany, where I trained for six months for another tour of duty in Iraq. On Christmas, on leave in the U.S., I decided that I couldn’t go back to Germany and from there to Iraq. If I went back to Baghdad I would have been asked (…)

    Experts: U.S. has no good options for Iraq
    By RON HUTCHESON
    Knight Ridder Newspapers
    WASHINGTON - In the swirling debate over Iraq, all sides agree on one thing: There’s no easy way out.
    Every approach to ending U.S. involvement carries the risk that President Bush’s ambitious effort to transplant democracy will end in chaos and create an oil-rich haven for terrorists. Even the most hopeful predictions envision a fragile democracy struggling to overcome ruthless insurgents and (…)

  • Cui bono? Stupidity Versus Logic in the Latest “Terror” Attack

    Wow, al Qaeda must be the stupidest terrorists, no wait, stupidest people period, on this entire planet. Their purported goal is to shake the will of the western powers that have invaded Iraq, and to drive them out, no? Then can someone please explain to me the logic of the London bombings? No seriously, it is time to apply logic to these events. Please do not hand me the nonsense about these people being “killers” who do not apply logic. You do not become the number one terrorist (…)

    GOP Conservatives Call for US Withdrawal from Iraq By David T. Pyne (07/07/05)
    An increasing percentage of the American people and U.S. congressional and military leaders are coming to the conclusion that the United States is losing the counterinsurgency war in Iraq. Car bombings and attacks by insurgents killed 80 U.S. troops in May. An additional 47 U.S. soldiers were killed during the first half of June. A total of 1,730 of our troops have died in Iraq thus far and at least 13,000 have (…)
