The leaked statements from witnesses to the shooting of Jean Charles de Menezes refute the account spun to a compliant press in the immediate aftermath of his killing. It was claimed he was wearing a heavy jacket, implying he could have been concealing bombs on his body, that he vaulted a barrier, ran from the police and refused to stop. read full story / add a comment

Come and revisit childhood memories, but only if you don’t mind strange outdoor locations and a surreal taste. Watch Alice meeting her playmates and finding out what society is about. Does this naïve girl really need to grow up? Or are she and her friend in their pureness really more responsible than the adults?

If you are curious, come to this unique opportunity to see a psychological/political tale just below the trains. Probably the only chance you get is this Thursday. (August the 18th) read full story / add a comment

Dr. Mustafa Barghouti, the leader of the Palestinian National Initiative (Al Mubadara), a democratic secular organisation working for peaceful civil-resistance to the Israeli occupation and for the democratisation of Palestinian institutions, has called for the withdrawal of settlers from Gaza to be the first step in the creation of an independent state of Palestine in Gaza, West Bank and East Jerusalem and the settlement of all outstanding issues including the right to return. Dr. Barghouti was the main candidate of the left/secular/democratic forces in the Presidential elections of 2005 when he scored a creditable 20% against the current President Mahmoud Abbas of Fatah.

Is born the first great ideology of the millenium!
Is born the anticompetitivist ideology of the "full effective and obligatory occupation (of all the families) for law", of the successive and innovative historical phase regarding the Socialism, of the anticycling of the economy, ("the second phase" of the democracy, that one "material") and of the peace.
This new great ideology democratic and non-political, through the proposizione of a new and revolutionary economic model, succeeds to resolve problems definitively millenarians which unemployment, the poverty, the inflation, the discontinuity of the economic increase, the deficit of the public budget, the instability financial institution. Its greater objective is the peace. read full story / add a comment
