The cheapening of Arab blood by the West and the blatant racism
Nawal’s resignation, reflected in many other conversations with other friends and with people on the street, was heavy, but masks a corrosive sense of pain,regret and anger – another violation, another occupation – which was evident in the face of every demonstrator who took to the streets of Egypt, Syria, Palestine, Lebanon, Yemen and Jordan. There was no equivalent in the images of demonstrations in Europe and the United States. The bombing, the immediacy of it, the images of warm, throbbin...

Harper's Publisher Accuses Media of Aiding U.S. War Propaganda
It is one of the most famous images of the war in Iraq: a U.S. soldier scaling a statue of Saddam Hussein in Baghdad and draping the Stars and Stripes over the black metal visage of the ousted despot.
But for Harper's magazine publisher John MacArthur, that same image of U.S. military victory is also indicative of a propaganda campaign being waged by the Bush administration....

Our own USAF academy have long been raping the women cadets. Time for action, bomb the academy. Show the world you mean what you said! Those bastard tyrants at the USAF Academy deserves no more chances. Drop America's secret weapon MOAB on them....

Vatican Concerned By Bush's "Christian" Blood Cult
George W. Bush proclaims himself a born-again Christian. However, Bush and fellow self-anointed neo-Christians like House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, John Ashcroft, and sports arena Book of Revelations carnival hawker Franklin Graham appear to wallow in a "Christian" blood lust cult when it comes to practicing the teachings of the founder of Christianity. This cultist form of Christianity, with its emphasis on death rather than life, is also worrying the leaders of mainstream Christi...
