Peace Activists: Say no to corporate news! Protest at the SF FCC Hearing on 4/26!
While Secretary of State Colin Powell led the U.S. invasion against Iraq, his son, Michael Powell, head of the FCC, ramped up an attack on federal media regulations that could give the corporate media even more power than it already has. SF Bay Area activists: this is our chance to say no to the Bush Administration’s push to give free reign to the corporate media. This is our chance to speak out against media that puts corporate profit ahead of journalism and truth-telling....

'A Chill Wind is Blowing in This Nation...'
Today, prominent politicians who have decried violence in movies -- the "Blame Hollywooders," if you will -- recently voted to give our current president the power to unleash real violence in our current war. They want us to stop the fictional violence but are okay with the real kind. Could this be Joe Liberman?...

ZIONAZIS SUPPRESS SAN ANTONIO EXPRESS COLUMNIST JULIO NABOA
Yet another brave rare American columnist standing up for the truth about the plight of Palestinians has been fired from his post by weak-kneed editors unable and unwilling to stand up to the relentless anti-Palestinian Macarthytes that continue to choke the already very smothered discourse about the Palestinian-Israeli conflict here in the United States....

Stop Them Before They Kill Again
It wasn't but three or four hours after the statue of Saddam Hussein was pulled down by the US Marines (and a few dozen Iraqi extras) in the center of Baghdad before the maddest man on the Potomac, Donald Rumsfeld, issued a warning to the nation of Syria. In effect, Rumsfeld told Syria that its fate would be the same as the Iraqis unless it did his bidding. Further remarks from Rumsfeld and Colin Powell have clarified this threat while simultaneously ratcheting it up....

How Our Iraq Invasion Serves Israeli Interests
It is understood from diplomatic sources that the Bush administration has said it will not support lifting UN sanctions on Iraq unless Saddam's successors agree to supply Israel with oil. All of this lends weight to the theory that Bush's war is part of a masterplan to reshape the Middle East to serve Israel's interests. Haaretz quoted Paritzky as saying that the pipeline project is economically justifiable because it would dramatically reduce Israel's energy bill....

Why Syria Is Our Newest Target For Invasion
Indeed, the Arabs see a deeper plot and they may not be entirely wrong. Some members of the Bush administration came into office determined to overthrow Saddam, occupy Iraq and extend American control through as much of the region as possible. For these officials, some of them close to the Likud party, the invasion of Iraq was only a first step intended to pave the way for the removal of Syria as the last strategic opponent of Israel....
