"George W. Bush declared the “War on Terrorism” “the first war of the 21st century” almost like a boy proudly claims a newfound toy. Soon after followed the knee-jerk USA PATRIOT Act, a misguided piece of follow-the-leader legislation ushering in a new era of human rights violations. Writing for LAWeekly.com, Christine Pelisek has compiled a mile-long list of post 9/11 “accomplishments” and statistics facilitated by the expanded reach the PATRIOT Act granted to federal offices and the creation of the Homeland Security department. For example: “Number of al Qaeda or allied terror suspects arrested by officials since 9/11: 2,700. Number of U.S. citizens indicted by a federal grand jury for al Qaeda-related activities: 5.” Newfound capacity for the Bush administration to exploit post-9/11 fear and grief for its own secret purposes: Priceless.

It is extraordinary that some people who post here, and probably pride themselves on their "progressive" politics, can think the kidnap and imprisonment of totally innocent people is a good idea, as long as it's carried out by the FARC ghouls. Have these people ever devoted even a moment's thought to the despicable crime against humanity that kidnapping represnets ? They should read this report from the BBC: ... read full story / add a comment

It will probably not surprise many people, but George Bush treated Senegal and its people with utter contempt during his recent to that country —700 US security personnel protected the paranoid president; all trees along his route had to be cut down; state exams were postponed; roads, businesses and hospitals were shut for the duration. ... read full story / add a comment

As the UK government continues to wriggle over weapons of mass destruction, of sexing up dossiers and general spin, Tony Blair argues that there is no greater charge against a prime minister than for him to have personally falsified claims on which to take a country to war. That may be so, but another grave charge would be personally ordering the sacking of a scientist who was involved in some of the first independent tests on GM, especially if those tests showed evidence of harm, and also especially if the orders came from Monsanto, via the White House. This is what Dr. Arpad Pusztai, who raised concerns about GM food in 1998, claims happened to him. ... read full story / add a comment
