More background info: [prisoner report, pics, audio , spontaneous demo at police station, ], all 22nd of march.
On Thursday July,17th 2003, a more or less spontaneous solidarity action called by the comedian Mark Thomas and supported by Members of Scottish Parliament Mark Ballard and Colin Fox, took place in front of the St.Leonards police station, Edinburgh, with about 60 protesters ready to hand themselves in for displaying postcards with a similar design in public. pics [1, 2 ]
Its not about Americans, who incidently are not a race, but a nation. If Americans are a race, I want to know their racial characteristics, there aren't any, because they are made out of imigrants and that's the thing of America, America is quite proud that it is made out of imigrants.
That's the gig of it."
Mark Thomas in his interview to Indymedia.
"Racism is about power, it is about power to inflict.
Your views, your power, your controll over people because of their race, that's what it is all about.
And, if you therefore say, that you can't critisise the most powerful people, the most rascist nation, by its action as a foreign power, as an imperialist power, its actions towards other countries, then it is absolute nonsense. It is absolut nonsense.
And it is the cops trying it on."
Another mass wave-in of postcards had already occured the 4th of april.
His supporters are asking people in solidarity to come along for Simons trial, which is scheduled now for August 15th, at 10 am at the Sheriff Court in Chambers Street, Edinburgh.

The 'piggies'(as usual) only seem to like certain displays of public 'fuck'ing.
Demo against Pfizer's(MultiNat Drug Co) in Sandwich Kent, had at least one placard with FUCK PFIZERS on which local plod wanted erased.(Cos the locals and golf freaks might be upset.)
YET,seen at Sandwich railstation,with Plods everywhere, a local was walking around
with a T shirt saying 'FUCK- At least I can spell it' quite openly.

War Crimes Tribunals: Bring 'Em On!
20.07.2003 18:40
History will forgive us?
"involve acts dangerous to human life that are a violation of the criminal laws of the United States or of any State; appear to be intended to intimidate or coerce a civilian population, to influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion, or to affect the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination, or kidnapping, and occur primarily within the territorial jurisdiction of the United States."
Bush KNOWINGLY lied about Iraq's WMD to intimidate and coerce the public and congress to get his oil war in Iraq. Bush is, by definition of his own Patriot Act, a terrorist.
Mr. Bush, the country awaits your impeachment and free trip to Guantanamo.
Impeachment is for Liars

But the unfortunate employment of the "F word" directed at Mr. Bush, and the display of an inverted American flag in tandem with the Swastika, will unfortunately obscure the legitimacy of antiwar arguments with larger American audiences unable to get past the umbrage taken over the use of sexual obscenities and the deliberate desecration of Old Glory.
This same methodological error was committed by much of the antiwar Left during the Vietnam War, when more people in the United States in the 1960s and 70s would have been persuaded of American error and moral miscalculation in Southeast Asia by the use of civility in argumentation, appropriate language, and the ethos of love in public discourse.
Let's not make the same mistake again, as we work toward the goal of peace in Iraq and honorable opposition to the policies of George W. Bush and his neo-conservative advisors working for Big Oil and the Israeli lobby.

RE: War Crimes Tribunals: Bring 'Em On!
21.07.2003 04:19
"No action shall be maintained under section 2333 of this title [the section outlining punishments] against--
(1) the United States, an agency of the United States, or an
officer or employee of the United States or any agency thereof
acting within his or her official capacity or under color of legal
authority; or
(2) a foreign state, an agency of a foreign state, or an officer
or employee of a foreign state or an agency thereof acting within
his or her official capacity or under color of legal authority."
However, part (2) of this section is very telling of why Bush declines to bring foreign leaders to U.S. courts over terrorism-related (and specifically 9/11-related) charges; the case would not even make it to court, and would expose his allegations of some nations and leaders as "terrorists" as legally unsound under U.S. Code! Of course, this is in addition to the fact that such a trial would necessitate a full investigation of 9/11, which is not likely to happen any time soon.
On the other hand, the Bush cabal, if enough evidence for impeachment/indcitment is presented, is eligible to be tried for war crimes under U.S. Code (as well as international law), Title 18, Section 2441:
"Sec. 2441. War crimes
(a) Offense.--Whoever, whether inside or outside the United States,
commits a war crime, in any of the circumstances described in subsection
(b), shall be fined under this title or imprisoned for life or any term
of years, or both, and if death results to the victim, shall also be
subject to the penalty of death.
(b) Circumstances.--The circumstances referred to in subsection (a)
are that the person committing such war crime or the victim of such war
crime is a member of the Armed Forces of the United States or a national
of the United States (as defined in section 101 of the Immigration and
Nationality Act).
(c) Definition.--As used in this section the term 'war crime'
means any conduct--
(1) defined as a grave breach in any of the international
conventions signed at Geneva 12 August 1949, or any protocol to such
convention to which the United States is a party;
(2) prohibited by Article 23, 25, 27, or 28 of the Annex to the
Hague Convention IV, Respecting the Laws and Customs of War on Land,
signed 18 October 1907;
(3) which constitutes a violation of common Article 3 of the
international conventions signed at Geneva, 12 August 1949, or any
protocol to such convention to which the United States is a party
and which deals with non-international armed conflict; or
(4) of a person who, in relation to an armed conflict and
contrary to the provisions of the Protocol on Prohibitions or
Restrictions on the Use of Mines, Booby-Traps and Other Devices as
amended at Geneva on 3 May 1996 (Protocol II as amended on 3 May
1996), when the United States is a party to such Protocol, willfully
kills or causes serious injury to civilians."
I have to say that the war crimes trial looks quite a bit more likely than any terrorism carges (such charges would likely throw into question the idea and practice of war itself, and the powers that be will have no part of that). Unfortunately, it may have to wait until the end of Bush's Residency; the "justice" system will be loathe to charge the man sitting as president, especially during wartime, even if that wartime is a direct result of his regime's war crimes.

I took the time to follow back to the BBC report on the BNP case, does anyone have a copy of that leaflet? The words used in the BBC report do not indicate racism, is that misreporting through BBC political correctness? Or were the prosecution on the same silly wicket as against Simon?

has every fucking right to say fuck bush, i live in the u.s, and it can be dangerous to state your opinion about the regime, and some who do pay dearly, some who question are siding with the "terrorists", but to say that what the chap did was racist against U.S should really take a look the majority of people who live here. THERE FUCKING WHITE, and last time i checked, when people of the same "race" get into a conflict, its not about whos color is right, its probably about some other dumb bullshit, The u.s is definetly not one race. Thats fucking retarded, we are a nation made up of many cultural entitiys( mind the spelling) and to group all of us as one race i think is the mentality of someone who is probably racist. FUCK BUSH and FUCK YOU PIGS. thanks for enduring this crap.
