"this is a very modest step forward which is being spun as a colossal leap" P. Watt of Action Aid "President Bush's pledge today will mean an extra nine hundred million dollars each year for Africa and this is a welcome first step. Hoewver it is widely calculated that $25 billion is needed annually for Africa so we hope the announcement today is just the beginning of a much bigger US commitment to fighting poverty." - Oxfam the USA will double its aid to Africa in the next five years to those states which are "reforming" on the basis of trade and support the "war on malaria". It will not cancel debt, it will not cancel US drug patents, it will not increase US corporation tax donations on african mining or commidities. read full story / add a comment

It is very likely that the hour is late, that capitalism will soon perish. It will happen sooner or later and if it does happen sooner, we have to be prepared. We need to debate the principles of our coming revolution; the principles of socialism. read full story / add a comment
