The Secret Of Israel's Kadima Party

12-02-2006 20:20

Sharon left the Likud Party, because it was discredited as a haven for Far-Right Extremists, supporters of an increasingly Fascist vision. His only recourse in keeping such an agenda alive, was to rebrand. For the most part, his plan was a media success, but since then, revelations about the party - and its plans - have begun to come to light.

G8 2003 cops on trial this week!: www.aubonnebridge.net

12-02-2006 18:05

Hi!
In case you did not know, it is not only the Genoa G8 2001 cops who are on trial, but Swiss cops are in courst this coming week too. The Swiss lawyer for the case of the Aubonne Bridge thinks we have a chance to win. We think if the cops are found guilty, it can send a big message to Russia and Germany, and to tell the Russian and German cops that if they beat people up at the G8 in 2006 or 2007, they can be found guilty too.

We have issued political statements for the radical left, and we also
have press releases for mainstream press, which are on the web-site. The decision of the trial should be next Thursday or Friday and then it will quickly be put on the web-site: www.aubonnebridge.net
If you can pass on this info, or post it on your local or regional IMC's, that would be super helpful!

ciao!

Fields of Battle

12-02-2006 03:58

Faced with the undeniable and now unavoidable truth of the criminality of the Bush, Blair and Howard governments, what do you suppose are the consequences for these men? People are fined for parking and littering offences but murder and plunder on an international scale incurs no penalty it would seem. [The ICC is a puppet court, an institution with zero credibility.] Is the lack of legal and public response surprising? Advice from leading consultants and ‘people managers’ was/is unanimous; once a decision is acted upon by a government and a nation is committed to a particular course, the people are swept along regardless of compromising evidence released during or after the event.
