The corporate sponsorship of cultural life is taking off a storm with companies such as BP and Esso up to their old PR tricks. Buy their oil because they’re the coolest, greenest, cheapest (!), most caring guys in town. This is tosh and we all know it.A difficult day in Palestine

A friend in Palestine just emailed me this article. It is the account of a difficult day of Samah Atout including the trashing of her home and her family being held by soldiers while they occupied the home. Samah is the Project Hope Palestine Director and Nablus Coordinator. The account is in her own words, and details some of the horrendous but everyday tragedies she and others have gotten used to.

01-06-2004 08:58
This short essay is a collection of my thoughts on the legality of invading Iraq, specifically in relation to the infamous Resolution 1441. It is largely the product of various exchanges with posters to Medialens (mostly trolls). As so many journalist, politicians, bloggers, and the like continue to appeal to 1441 (frequently distorting it), it seemed useful to collect my thoughts. I should emphasise that I am not a lawyer but I hope that some people may find it of use -even if it is decidely old news nowMobilization in Guadalajara
