What's Bush Next Step to His Ultimate Goal? More Chaos?
Are all these lootings part of the Bush's pre-emption doctrine's basic required elements in order to justify further military engagement elsewhere and the eventual total imperialist domination? Is this a set up to assure the extremists will get a hold a small amount of nuclear materials? What is the U.S. government trying to promote?...

"It's like murder is nothing today. It's become normal here," - Palestine? No,
Scott, his pregnant girlfriend and their 4-year-old girl had recently moved to Hayward to avoid the crime of East Oakland.

AN AMERICAN EPIDEMIC: Hate Crimes Against Homeless People
As disturbing as the case descriptions contained in NCH's report are, what is even more ominous is that homeless people have almost no protection against such cruelty.

"Globalization itself could be in peril" Observer article on EU and US Relations
It is all incredibly dangerous - an undermining of how the globe is governed with nothing to put in its place. Globalization itself could be in peril. Yet debate in Britain, rather like pre-war appeasement, is fundamentally misinformed.

REGIME CHANGE BEGINS AT HOME
Hundreds of thousands--indeed millions in some cities--mobilized against the war in Iraq and the question now becomes, where do we go from here? Should we let the movement die because the architects of this criminal war say that it is over? Or should we mobilize against the tyrants responsible for this mass murder and fight to remove them from power before they spill more blood in their quest for world domination?...
