War protesters arrested at House office building

This is just in from the A.P. The government and George Bush are getting testy as the American public refuses to simply put up with more of this war. We’ve all had enough of it. We know it’s for oil and has nothing to do with democracy. We can only expect more of this as more people refuse to put up with Bush and his henchmen’s stupidity.
This is beginning to look more and more like Vietnam.

By NATASHA T. METZLER
Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON -- Several dozen demonstrators protesting the Iraq war
marched Wednesday to the Capitol building carrying mock coffins and
lay down in front of doorways at a House office building, where some
were arrested.

Many covered themselves with sheets designed to make them resemble
dead bodies.

"I had to bring my body down here to say no," Paki Wieland said as
she waited in line to get on a police bus.

The protest was organized by the Declaration of Peace, a coalition of
about 500 groups that has organized Iraq war protests around the
United States since Sept. 21, to coincide with the United Nations
International Day of Peace.

The world can't wait - Oct. 5

YOUR GOVERNMENT, on the basis of outrageous lies, is waging a murderous and utterly illegitimate war in Iraq, with other countries in their sights.

YOUR GOVERNMENT is openly torturing people, and justifying it.

YOUR GOVERNMENT puts people in jail on the merest suspicion, refusing them lawyers, and either holding them indefinitely or deporting them in the dead of night.

YOUR GOVERNMENT is moving each day closer to a theocracy, where a narrow and hateful brand of Christian fundamentalism will rule.

YOUR GOVERNMENT suppresses the science that doesn't fit its religious, political and economic agenda, forcing present and future generations to pay a terrible price.

YOUR GOVERNMENT is moving to deny women here, and all over the world, the right to birth control and abortion.

YOUR GOVERNMENT enforces a culture of greed, bigotry, intolerance and ignorance.

People look at all this and think of Hitler - and they are right to do so. The Bush regime is setting out to radically remake society very quickly, in a fascist way, and for generations to come.

We must act now; the future is in the balance.

Millions and millions are deeply disturbed and outraged by this. They recognize the need for a vehicle to express this outrage, yet they cannot find it; politics as usual cannot meet the enormity of the challenge, and people sense this. There is not going to be some magical "pendulum swing." People who steal elections and believe they're on a "mission from God" will not go without a fight. There is not going to be some savior from the Democratic Party. This whole idea of putting our hopes and energies into "leaders" who tell us to seek common ground with fascists and religious fanatics is proving every day to be a disaster, and actually serves to demobilize people.

But silence and paralysis are NOT acceptable. That which you will not resist and mobilize to stop, you will learn - or be forced - to accept. There is no escaping it: the whole disastrous course of this Bush regime must be STOPPED. And we must take the responsibility to do it. And there is a way. We are talking about something on a scale that can really make a huge change in this country and in the world. We need more than fighting Bush's outrages one at a time, constantly losing ground to the whole onslaught. We must, and can, aim to create a political situation where the Bush regime's program is repudiated, where Bush himself is driven from office, and where the whole direction he has been taking society is reversed. We, in our millions, must and can take responsibility to change the course of history. Acting in this way, we join with and give support and heart to people all over the globe who so urgently need and want this regime to be stopped.

This will not be easy. If we speak the truth, they will try to silence us. If we act, they will try to stop us. But we speak for the majority, here and around the world, and as we get this going we are going to reach out to the people who have been so badly fooled by Bush and we are NOT going to stop. The point is this: history is full of examples where people who had right on their side fought against tremendous odds and were victorious. And it is also full of examples of people passively hoping to wait it out, only to get swallowed up by a horror beyond what they ever imagined.

The future is unwritten. WHICH ONE WE GET IS UP TO US.

Kansas Wing-nut Kline shits on his own nest


Statement on Kansas Attorney General Phill Kline's "Memo"



We, the undersigned clergy persons and religious leaders, are incensed by the recent memorandum that was leaked from Attorney General Phill Kline's office, the authenticity of which has been confirmed by his staff. It is evident that in his quest to garner contributions and votes from conservative, evangelical, and fundamentalist congregations, Kline has asked churches to walk dangerously close to the line drawn by the Internal Revenue Service that prohibits nonprofit organizations from supporting political candidates. In fact, Kline has asked them to cross that line.

Yes, Kline certainly has the right to speak at select houses of worship, but, as his memo indicates, he has another agenda. Does not asking pastors to identify the five members of their congregations with the deepest pockets and assembling groups of lay people to be campaign workers constitute a blatant violation of IRS Code Section 501(c)3? The Attorney General of the State of Kansas, of all people, should know better.

In certain religious circles in this nation, there is a burgeoning tendency to eradicate the demarcation that separates church and state. The assumption, for many Christians, is that our faith will somehow become more legitimate if it is legislated. Ignoring the first ten words of the First Amendment, candidates on the far right are exploiting this mindset for political means. This is not only unconstitutional, but it is an utter offense to those of us who are being asked to give to Caesar that which belongs to God.

Shame on Phill Kline for exploiting communities of faith for political gains. His modus operandi is apparent when one compares the image of the incumbent who altruistically seeks to convey his faith story (albeit with congregations comprised of parishioners more likely to agree with his political stances) with the image of the candidate who cautions his staff that, once he shares the Good News, to "Get me out . . .I am spending too long at these events."

Regardless of which side of the aisle one worships God from, dressing a political campaign in the wool of Christian witness makes a mockery of our churches and a charade of our political system. It may mask the identity of the wolf beneath, but its howl is quite distinguishable.

An earnest plea to all of us, to all our sisters and brothers of faith, many of whom subscribe to more conservative forms of Christianity: we may disagree on social, political, and doctrinal issues. That's fine. The Christian Church is by no means a monolith. However, when the Gospel is co-opted for political means, it subverts the grace it bequeaths. Do not be deceived by those who seek your endorsement under the guise of spiritual righteousness, but lull you into idolatry. Their hands may be on The Bible when they stand in your pulpits, but their eyes are focused solely on the polls.

The separation of church and state, or religion and government, not only protects democracy; it protects the sacred worship spaces that are so integral to our lives.

Kansans should oppose torture

It’s no surprise that our two senatorial clones of President George Bush have supported their leader and favored using torture. But Sen. Pat Roberts, R-Kan and But Sen. Sam Brownback, R-Kan aren’t getting a free ride with the press. The Wichita Eagle, Wednesday, printed an editorial called “Oppose Torture.” In it the Eagle editorial board said:

“Several leading GOP senators are taking a brave stand against the Bush administration's creeping moral relativism on torture, which threatens not only this nation's authority on human rights but also its success in the war on terror.
The outcome of this debate touches on the nation's soul, on our very identity and ideals as Americans.
Sen. Pat Roberts, R-Kan., backs the president's position -- no surprise. But Sen. Sam Brownback, R-Kan., has been mostly silent so far. Why?
Brownback has been a notable conservative champion of human rights abroad, opposing the brutal treatment of prisoners in North Korea, Iran and elsewhere.”

There little support for our use of torture in the rest of the world. How can this country champion human rights when it can’t practice what it preaches. And the war is more about keeping the oil flowing to a society that over-consumes it anyway.
Torture is inexcusable! It’s up to Americans to put an end to it!

What’s happening in Peru?

Recently a person --- In MAOIST_REVOLUTION@ yahoogroups. com, wrote:

Hello,
I am from India..and a student.I am interested to know , what is the
present condition of the Shining path? Is the movement totally stopped
after the arrest of Chairman Gonzalo..?

This letter was sent in as a reply:
Hi, they still exist and may have anywhere from 600-3,000 fighters, the numbers are very difficult to come by. They are but a shadow of their former selves, though, but since year 2000, they have been active all over the country, including Cajamarca and near Piura. Lately, they have showed up again in Puno. They are taking a softer line, buying animals from the peasants instead of taking them at gunpoint. The radical attacks on the rest of the Left have basically ceased, so it is not the same Shining Path as in the 1980's-1992.



They are definitely active in the Huallaga Valley, Apurimac and Ayahusco and of course in the Satipo Valley where they have their main base. A few years ago, they were organizing in the shantytowns of Lima again. A lot of the Leftists are disenchanted with them. FARC has been moving into Peru in the past couple of years in a major way and has been finding lots of support with former Sendero supporters. I'm not opposed to FARC like most on this board probably are. Lord knows, Peru needs some kind of a revolution.
BTW, the FARC in Colombia is really huge and has branched out into all the surrounding countries. They have a large front in Venezuela, they have a front, FARE, in Ecuador, they have R and R in northern Peru and southern Panama, they have a front, FARB, in Brazil and lately they are even in Guyana taxing gold smugglers. It's a huge movement. It may not be Maoist, but lord knows it's better than the fascist government.

Spread the word – Wal*Mart’s not worth it

There are plenty of reasons why people should not buy at Wal*Mart. It offers us low prices and wide selection, but at a really large price. It cost us wages, jobs and damages local economies.

Yet the store has it’s supporters including conservative columnists such as JONATHAN GURWITZ, of the San Antonio Express-News:
From The Wichita Eagle, Sep. 08, 2006:

Democrats denounce Wal-Mart at own peril

“For all its good works, low prices and incomparable efficiencies, Wal-Mart may not be the corporate messiah. Neither, however, is it a corporate Satan, as an increasing number of Democratic politicians are making it out to be.
The New York Times reported last month from the campaign trail in Iowa that Sen. Joseph Biden, D-Del., a presumed presidential candidate, delivered a 15-minute stem-winder of a speech to party activists. His main target was Wal-Mart.
He is not alone. The new election rallying cry of many Democratic leaders, the Times reported, is denouncing Wal-Mart.
I don't know who's mixing the Kool-Aid for the Democratic National Committee these days, but a populist political strategy is supposed to have popular appeal.
Despite charges of substandard wages and nonexistent health care benefits, Wal-Mart is the nation's largest private employer, with 1.3 million employees. And notwithstanding the high proportion of "made in China" labels on Wal-Mart products, more than 100 million customers shop at its U.S. stores every week.
Biden and company might want to look at a poll conducted last year by the Pew Research Center.
It found that 84 percent of Americans said they had shopped at a Wal-Mart store in the previous 12 months, with half of these shopping regularly. Wal-Mart's most faithful shoppers have annual incomes of less than $30,000.
Eighty-one percent of respondents said Wal-Mart was a good place for families to shop, 68 percent said it had a positive impact on their neighborhoods, and 64 percent said the company had a positive impact on the nation -- sentiments that were even more pronounced among African-Americans and Hispanics.”

Yes it may seem that Wal-Mart is popular, but not everyone is fooled by a few low prices.

According to Fat American:
Sweat Shop Superstore - When this monster moves into your hometown look out. Mom and Pop will soon be looking for work, Brother and Sis will be taking a pay cut, and our cousins accross the border will lose gallons of sweat. But who cares, it will all be worth it because you will be able to change your oil, buy groceries, get new glasses, wardrobe and a haircut all under the same roof. Oh, and Don't forget to Super Size everything!
At ReclaimDemocracy,com, the make the following points from a film:


"Walmart: The High Cost of Low Price" focuses solely on Walmart Corporation while ignoring the existence of other giant retail chains (Sam's Club, which is mentioned, is a division of Walmart) that create most of those same destructive impacts. Walmart indeed is unique in its size and impact, has a worse record than most in compliance with the law, and certainly deserves most criticism it receives. But while Walmart differs in scale and degree from other corporate chains, is it different in kind?
Target Corporation, Walmart's most direct competitor, is invisible in the film, yet it:
* Pays workers wages essentially identical to Walmart and is ardently anti-union;
* Drives down wages at competitors, especially unionized supermarkets;
* Has an equally devastating impact on many of the communities where it locates "superstores" and on independent business in and near those communities;
* Wields its amassed power to extract taxpayer subsidies around the country, with all the accompanying harms the film blames on Walmart;
* Uses corporate funds to help elect candidates favored by its directors, undermining democracy
* Sells mostly imported goods from the same countries and often the same factories as Walmart (the prices and quality tend to be slightly higher, but an equally low portion of sales go to the people who make them);
* Drives sprawl, increased costs for roads and services, and consumes enormous amounts of land for single-story buildings and parking lots isolated from any other destination."

And let’s not forget that their TV’s are made in China for wages of 50 cents.

9-11 and Bush brought us fascism

A lot has happened in the last 5 years since 9-11. President George Bush said we were hit by terrorists who hate our freedom. Well he’s taken care of that problem. We are now loosing our freedoms, so there should be nothing to hate us for.
Just last week it was revealed by our president that we have secret detention centers were the CIA tortures captured al Qaeda leaders for information. Bush claimed it wasn’t torture, but that depends on the definition of torture. Apparently if the rack isn’t used and there’s no visible scars when finished, it isn’t torture. To convince someone they’re drowning, stripping them naked and depriving them of sleep 48 hours is OK.
Bush argued that lives were saved and terrorist acts prevented.
“Were it not for this program," Bush said, According to the Chicago Tribune, "our intelligence community believes that Al Qaeda and its allies would have succeeded in launching another attack against the American homeland."

Yes torture has always been a useful tool for extracting information. Ask any dictator in the Middle East. Ask Saddam Hussein.
And to reward these people for all the information they gave up, Bush is now planning their trials, so they can be executed. That must be the corner stone of democracy. It’s a little like the processed used at Democratic Kampuchea's S21 prison.
So we use torture, we have a concentration on Guantanamo and the Patriot act allows the government to spy on us at any time. We should feel real safe, unless we fall under suspicion of our government.
And let’s not forget the war which was planned before 9-11, even though Bush insisted they are related.
Yes, fascism is a safe form of government, except for the never ending war in Iraq and other parts of the Middle East.










9-11 has changed us for the worse. In some ways the terrorist have succeeded. They have proven that our constitution is nothing but toilet paper anytime the American citizens are frightened. That’s just what happened in Europe before World War II.

Lebanon is step 1 to a war with Iran


Will we be invading Iran next, despite all the setbacks and all the screw ups? According to a reporter from the New Yorker magazine, the answer is YES!
Seymour Hersh, in a story called “Watching Lebanon: Washington’s interests in Israel’s War,” said that the George Bush administration is interested in the planning and execution of war in Lebanon and that the war there is viewed as preparation and a trial run for a US attack on Iran.
According to the article, any truce in the fighting is just a tactic to muster up forces. The captured soldier by Hezbollah was an excuse by the Israelis and they have been planning the attack for some time. The US is interested in starting an air war with Iran.
