Amidst growing expectations of a possible an American military strike against Iranian cities, two Democratic Congressmen sent letters to the U.S. President George W. Bush, who secretly decided in 2003 to go to war in Iraq long before he admitted as much in public, expressing concern that if circulating reports about a possible war on Iran are true, then the president is once again acting unilaterally without first obtaining proper authorization from Congress.
"Recently, it has been (…)

Washington Post Gives Nuclear Propaganda Red Carpet Treatment
18 April 2006Patrick Moore’s article in the Washington Post, “Going Nuclear,” [April 16] provides the kind of misleading and inaccurate information that one often hears from nuclear industry propagandists. In a Post-sponsored online forum held Monday, Moore acknowledged that his organization, Greenspirit, works for the industry’s promotional firm, the Nuclear Energy Institute. But, the Washington Post, having selected Moore’s flawed article in preference to hundreds of other submissions it receives (…)

Zarqawi; the Pentagon’s ongoing war of deception
18 April 2006Zarqawi; the Pentagon’s ongoing war of deception
By Mike Whitney
04/17/06 "ICH" — — In more than 3 years of war, there has never been a positive citing of alleged terror mastermind Abu Musab al Zarqawi. 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 (…) -
THE REAL PAT FITZGERALD
18 April 2006" The end result was a mixed bag for Fitzgerald. While a grand jury found the Gambinos guilty of jumping bail , it was deadlocked on the other charges..... Jerry Capeci , editor of Ganglandnews.com , said " it was hung 11-1 for conviction and they (The Gambinos ) copped pleas....the feds suspected that the holdout had been bought ........ Capeci found it interesting that both guys ( Pat Fitzgerald and James Comey) became US Attorneys in the two major cities in the country (Chicago and NY (…)

Breaking the Mikulski Code!
18 April 2006"What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans, and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or the holy name of liberty and democracy?" - Mahatma Gandhi
She looks like a liberal. Walks like a liberal. Talks like a liberal, but on the Iraqi War, she’s, in fact, just another blood stained War Hawk. I’m referring to U.S. Sen. Barbara A. Mikulski (D-MD)!
Just the other day, April 11, 2006, VP Dick Cheney tossed out the ceremonial first (…) -
Mainstream Media lying by omission & complicity in 2.7 million Bush Wars death toll - Iran next?
18 April 2006Decent people are appalled by news reports of an impending US attack on Iran and we might surmise that if it is a prolonged war (cf Afghanistan, Iraq, Palestine, Vietnam and Korea) that millions of people will die, if not from direct violence then from the collateral but equally deadly consequences of war. US Asian wars over the last 55 years have been associated with avoidable mortality totalling about 18 million - but this is IGNORED by racist, lying, Mainstream Media. A more pertinent (…)

Dem Congressmen write letters to Bush on Iran- a man who doesn’t read nor understand US Constitution
18 April 2006I do believe the course of action that the constitution requires is the immediate introduction of articles of impeachment.

War, Death & Destruction: Enough!
17 April 2006War, 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 (…) -
Memo to PM: Action speaks louder than Words
17 April 2006Artful Dodger, Tony Blair, would like us to believe that he does not support the neocon madmen’s intention to attack, let alone nuke, Iran. An article in The Scotsman claims government sources saying that Blair has informed Bush that Britain "cannot offer military support to any strike on Iran, regardless of whether the move wins the backing of the international community."
"We will support the diplomatic moves, at best," a Foreign Office source told Scotland on Sunday. "But we cannot (…) -
Empty boasts on weapons labs
17 April 2006By Derrick Z. Jackson
LAST WEEK, it was the allegation that President Bush himself authorized leaks of intelligence to attack Joseph Wilson, the government’s envoy who found no evidence of nuclear material transfers between Niger and Iraq. Wilson said Bush’s use of intelligence ’’was twisted to exaggerate the Iraqi threat."
This week brings a new twist to the exaggerations. In his February 2003 presentation to the United Nations the month before America invaded Iraq, then-Secretary of (…)
