28-09-2006 15:50
The wide gap between U.S. President George W. Bush’s words and deeds vis-à-vis Islam and Muslims doomed to failure his speech at the United Nations on September 19, which could neither appease Muslims nor pacify the ever growing Islamophobia.Afghanistan: The Other Lost War
28-09-2006 15:41
US directed repression of the Afghan people aided by its brutal Northern Alliance regional "warlord" proxies has led to the beginning of a growing insurrection against an intolerable situation that's unsustainable. It has the upper hand in Iraq and is fast becoming more of the same in Afghanistan. It's what always happens because no unwanted occupier is ever accepted by the people it subjugates, especially one whose prime mission is to terrorize the civilian population to pacify it. The mission is doomed to fail as eventually it becomes inefficient, ineffective and people back home no longer will tolerate it. By now it would seem cooler heads in Washington and at the Pentagon would have made some headway convincing the hard line neocons behind this growing misadventure and the out-of-control one in Iraq that it was time to cut losses, pull out, and go another way. Those among them with enough good sense have to realize even the most powerful military in the world has no chance to defeat a determined guerilla force gaining strength because it has most of the people in the country behind it.Homeless families in Iraq seek government action

Suicide Bomber
26-09-2006 03:55
Perhaps the two most feared words in the English language today are “suicide bomber”; the propaganda machine in the west ensures that these two words continue to strike fear and terror into the hearts of the civilian population. Circumstances occasionally present all of us with unusual opportunities. When a young man who claimed the above distinction wished to make known his story it would have been a dereliction of my profession to refuse the request. The public interest is not served unless both sides of a story are made available.OutRage!/NUS; Uganda demo pics and report

The sort of people that might come out for a demo against "replacing" Trident in the totally different global environment post-cold war are a far wider group than the old "lefties, greenies, etc" of the 80s, as are the people that are sceptical of war in iraq, staying in Kabul - when the example of a peace deal with locals seems to have lasted across the S border - but the "casuals" that decide, that A.M. to go - -PHILIPPINES: Remember Martial Law!
