Saint Theo of the Never-Never-Lands

10-11-2004 19:33

The self-fullfilling prophesy is one brought about by the prophet. Theo van Gogh castigated the multi-cultural society. He provoked the violence he brought down on his own head. The solidarity demonstration the evening of his death was a mono-cultural one, celebrating a Netherlands of tolerance that only in part existed and then only during the long boom. Time to move from outrage to reflection on the conditions that give rise to such.

Evidence Mounts That The Vote May Have Been Hacked

10-11-2004 18:21

logo
While the heavily scrutinized touch-screen voting machines seemed to produce results in which the registered Democrat/Republican ratios largely matched the Kerry/Bush vote, in Florida's counties using results from optically scanned paper ballots - fed into a central tabulator PC and thus vulnerable to hacking – the results seem to contain substantial anomalies.

Demonstration against migration management and forced integration

10-11-2004 18:18

The EU-ministers responsible for immigration and refugee policies are convening in Groningen, Netherlands from the 9th until the 11th of November to discuss integration. Integration is the latest part of their harsh immigration and refugee policy. Platform N10 wants to protest and give alternatives to this policy.

The immigration and refugee policy is mainly intended to keep refugees and migrants out of the borders of Fortress Europe. Those who do receive permission to stay will not get the same rights as an EU-citizen. By differentiating between two kinds of citizenship, the EU wants only to profit from the labour contribution of these new citizens. However, at the same time, the EU undermines the existence of this group of people by cutting back their social securities. N10 wants same rights for everybody!

Stop building of new Vivisection beagle unit being built

10-11-2004 14:42

Since 1984 Wickham Labs have been trying to get planning permission to build a beagle unit and state of the art laboratory on some land that they own, as part of an expansion project. Time and time again their application has been rejected. Recently they have appealed against this decision. It is really important that we lodge our complaints against this application, as these will be taken into account when the final decision is made.

IRAQ: Fallujah - History in the making.

10-11-2004 10:54

Even here in Amman, I can still feel the suffering of the Iraqi's. The slaughter of Fallujah is underway. I spent time there during April's offensive, I know the place and many of the people. While the 'insurgents' defend their positions with AK47's and Rocket Propelled Grenades, the Americans attack with Howitzers, Planes, Helicopters, Cluster bombs and Hellfire missiles. The weaponry sums up the situation, but one thing is certain - these coming days will be marked down in the pages of the history books.
