U.S. Military Shows Off New Ray Gun

26-01-2007 07:13 | Anti-militarism | Terror War | World

The latest tool of The Military Industrial Complex was unveiled for the first time today, reconfirming years of speculation that Directed Energy Weapons will be part of the New World Order arsenal. This sick invention will torture the innocent women, children and enemies of "democracy" in a way the Geneva Conventions never could have envisioned.

Big Day Out? Freedom, Choice, Love, Pride Not patriotism or nationalism

Unfortunately the media reports were not quoted accurately and we must thank the participating media for wasting everybody's time including the Prime Minister John Howard, Premier Morris Iemma, NSW RSL President Don Rowe, Keysar Trad (a confidant of the Mufti Sheik Taj el-Dene Elhilaly) and Burt Lane of the Australian National Flag Association...

Genoa/Diaz missing Molotovs update

25-01-2007 18:42 | G8 Russia 2006 | Repression | World

The Committee "Truth and Justice for Genoa" issued a press release earlier today stating that they had written an official complaint/ statement (esposto) to the Judicial Authorities in which they demand to know what has happened to the two molotovs amongst other things.
They go on to say that the missing Molotovs are only the latest in a whole series of delaying tactics, used by the police to try and impede the magistrates and stop the trial.

Stop the Iran War Before It Starts

25-01-2007 16:50 | Anti-militarism | Iraq | Terror War | World

In April 2001 I was invited to Washington, DC, by a group of Republican Congressmen collectively known as the Theme Team. The subject was Iraq. It seems that the Theme Team, responsible for monitoring the ideological pulse of America, was somewhat perturbed that a self-described Republican and former Marine officer, not to mention a former UN weapons inspector, was trash-talking America's Iraq policy. While this sort of action might have been acceptable during the tenure of a Democratic President like Bill Clinton, it was not part of the grand design when it came to the presidency of George W. Bush.

Presidential Selectee Hopefuls Do the Bomb Iran Conference

25-01-2007 12:22 | Anti-militarism | Iraq | Terror War | World

Newt Gingrich once again climbs up on the soapbox, this time at the Herzliya Conference sponsored by the Institute for Policy and Strategy in Israel. Newt tells us that the “terrorist threats are larger and more formidable than the political system in Israel or the US can cope with,” and of course, following the official fairy tale, this threat is nuclear, never mind Israel and the United States combined have more nukes than any other nation on the planet and have expressed their avid desire to use them, explicitly against Iran.

Early CIA Involvement in Darfur Has Gone Unreported

25-01-2007 12:08 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | World

There has been a glaring omission in the U.S. media presentation of the Darfur tragedy. The compassion demonstrated, mostly in words, until recently, has not been accompanied by a recognition of U.S. complicity, or at least involvement, in the war which has led to the enormous suffering and loss of life that has been taking place in Darfur for many years.

General Strike against Iran being Nuked - can anything less prevent it?

The warnings that the UK / US / Israel are planning on launching a war against Iran, possibly including the first use of nukes since 1945, are becoming more frequent.

Attached are two very good radio shows on this subject and some links for futher reading.

Iran Must Get Ready to Repel a Nuclear Attack

25-01-2007 10:42 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Terror War | World

In the overall flow of information coming from the Middle East, there are increasingly frequent reports indicating that within several months from now the US will deliver nuclear strikes on Iran. For example, citing well-informed but undisclosed sources, the Kuwaiti Arab Times wrote that the US plans to launch a missile and bomb attack on the territory of Iran before the end of April, 2007. The campaign will start from the sea and will be supported by the Patriot missile defense systems in order to let the US forces avoid a ground operation and to reduce the efficiency of the return strike by “any Persian Gulf country”.

Youth organisations Haika and Segi declared terrorist

24-01-2007 18:19 | Repression | World

On 19/02/2005 the Audiencia Nacional issued a decision whereby it stated the youth organisations Jarrai, Haika and Segi are not terrorist organisations because they do not use weapons or explosives, although the Court did declare them illegal and sentenced 24 young Basques to between two and half years and three and a half years in prison. This decision was appealed by the defence and the Prosecution, for different reasons, before the Supreme Court.

Col. Gardiner's Warning: Pieces in Place for Escalation

24-01-2007 18:12 | Anti-militarism | World

Regional diplomacy must replace empire-bulding and sabre-rattling.
The strength of the law must replace the law of the stronger, the law of the clenched fist, the law of the jungle.

International Mobilization To Stop U.S. Attack on Iran

24-01-2007 17:18 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Terror War | World

Anyone, including those in Iranian political circles, who cherished the illusion that the Cheney-Bush cabal was not committed to a new war in Southwest Asia, has had to abandon such dreams in the wake of George W. Bush’s Jan. 10 speech on his “new” policy for Iraq. The so-called “surge” in troop strength for Iraq which Bush announced, was recognized, correctly, by all in the region, as a commitment to open a new war front, this time against Iran or Syria. This analysis, which EIR had been circulating for weeks, including during a visit to Tehran in late November-early December, was finally embraced as the correct reading.

Looking to the Side, From Belsen to Gaza

24-01-2007 17:14 | Palestine | Repression | World

A genocide is engulfing the people of Gaza while a silence engulfs its bystanders. "Some 1.4 million people, mostly children, are piled up in one of the most densely populated regions of the world, with no freedom of movement, no place to run and no space to hide," wrote the senior UN relief official, Jan Egeland, and Jan Eliasson, then Swedish foreign minister, in Le Figaro. They described people "living in a cage," cut off by land, sea and air, with no reliable power and little water and tortured by hunger and disease and incessant attacks by Israeli troops and planes.

US occupation turns 3.7 million Iraqis into refugees

24-01-2007 17:01 | Iraq | Migration | Terror War | World

The United Nations Refugee Agency (UNHCR) reported this month that the US invasion and occupation of Iraq has forced one out of every eight Iraqis to flee their homes—more than 3.7 million people. The agency described the refugee crisis caused by the Iraq war as the worst in the Middle East since the ethnic cleansing that accompanied the creation of Israel in 1948. The Zionist military and paramilitary death squads drove an estimated 711,000 Palestinian Arabs from their land.

'Survivors' of truama and abuse caused by Ombudsman... Reply from LGOwatch....

I am tryingto gather up further support and ask further advice and any action that needs to be taken urgently on this matter with Local Goverment Ombudsman's abusive behaviour is being monitored by Gary Powell and other at LGOWatch, in which is impacting on some of the most vulnerable disabled people and their familes and carers within our society here in the UK which is causing many 'victims' of basic human rights abuses.

With others within the disabled peoples and other movements in the UK I am asking for allies within the UK and global indymedia on this urgent basic human rights matter. Please read below....

Local MP George Galloway makes rash comment on BBC News 24!

24-01-2007 05:48 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Anti-racism | World

The only thing that the world at large has been made aware of about the contribution to politics made by George Galloway is his widely reported stand on Iraq. The second thing, internationally, is that he has almost without exception been described as being not only biased in favour of Muslims but as being excessively biased in favour of Muslims. How valid is that perception as based and tested on the evidence of Galloway’s conduct and comments?
