War will highlight the difficulties that current conscientious objectors face
as well as help build relationships and connections between the various
communities within the anti-war movement. The focus of the events is on
supporting contemporary American conscientious objectors and their families, as
well as examining the current potential of conscientious objection (in its
various forms) as a strategy for building an anti-war movement. In addition,
Operation Refuse War will bring together international and American
conscientious objectors to share their experiences and ideas.

Immigration Policy: Send Us Your Poor, They Will Wind Up in Iraq

They are coming by the millions from all
over the world. Let them come here. Let
them find that there are not enough jobs.
They will find the military to be the last
resort when their welfare is cut off. And
let them acquire Gulf War Syndrom
(radiation sickness from uranium
munitions).! It works just fine in the
minds of the neo-cons.

THE CHOMSKY/BLANKFORT POLEMIC - Interview
Silvia Cattori
2006-04-16 11:44 AM
Tel-Aviv and Washington are linked in the Middle East. That's a fact. But the importance of this link in Washington's colonial politics is being debated in the anti-imperialist movement. For the US, Jewish, anti-Zionist journalist Jeffrey Blankfort, Israeli influence is central to US policy and the anti-war movement has failed because of its inability to understand the importance of this lobby. Having developed a radical approach to this question, going so far as to deny the energy factor in the war in Iraq, Mr. Blankfort nonetheless opens interesting paths on Zionist influence in the United States. We reproduce an interview he gave to journalist Silvia Cattori. (text/plain)

Ruairí Ó Brádaigh - The Life and Politics of an Irish Revolutionary
Paddy-bo
2006-04-14 9:56 PM
"In a very real sense, Ruairí Ó Bradáigh can . . . be said to be the last, or one of the last Irish Republicans. Studies of the Provisional movement to date have invariably focused more on the Northerners and the role of people like Gerry Adams and Martin McGuinness. But an understanding of them is not possible without appreciating where they came from and from what tradition they have broken. Ruairí Ó Bradáigh is that tradition and that is why this account of his life and politics is so important."

Filipino Social Democrats assure extreme leftist BAYAN solons case agains them very strong
PDSP
2006-04-13 11:39 PM![]()
Jesuit priest Fr. Romeo J. Intengan, one of the founding leaders of the Partido Demokratiko-Sosyalista ng Pilipinas (PDSP) and author of the Ateneo study asserting that party-list lawmakers belonging to the extreme left channeled millions of pork barrel funds to communist rebels, slammed anew the party-list solons. “The details that BAYAN MUNA party-list Rep. Satur Ocampo and his colleagues (Rafael Mariano, and Teodoro Casiño of BAYAN MUNA; Liza Maza of GABRIELA; Joel Virador Crispin Beltran of ANAKPAWIS) want, regarding the diversion of their pork barrel funds to abet communist insurgency, are now part of the evidence in the rebellion charges being filed by government against them,” Intengan said.
