As of this writing, the IAEA Director-General continues to report that Iran is in complete compliance with its Safeguards Agreementand that no NPT-proscribed materials have ever been diverted by Iran to a military purpose.

Zimbabwe’s Lonely Fight for Justice

01-04-2007 11:08

Left critics of Mugabe ape the argument of the US ambassador, adding that Mugabe’s anti-imperialist and leftist rhetoric is, in truth, insincere. He is actually right-wing and reactionary -- a master at talking left while walking right.

what is it about the holloway road, anarchists, and cops? a year and a half ago the anarchist book fair ended in a ridiculous police operation that blocked holloway road for more than an hour, led to trials lasting several weeks for affray, assault, etc. and yet in the end the court decided no crime was committed - the police had totally overreacted. tonight's rtf4 party received the same ridiculous treatment.
