Real Terrorist Trial

There will be an International trial of US, British, and Israeli leaders, George Bush, Tony Blair, and Ariel Sharon, for war crimes committed against civilians in Iraq and the Palestinian territories. The two-day event is set to open on Friday, February 3rd in the Egyptian capital.

It will include international lawyers and human rights activists including Ahmed Ben Bella, the former Algerian president, and ex-Malaysian leader Mahathir Mohamad. Nelson Mandela, the former South African president accepted an invitation to be the chief judge. The prosecution will be headed by Ramsey Clark, the former US attorney-general. Witnesses include Hans Blix, the former UN chief weapons inspector who monitored Iraq's weapons program under Saddam Hussein.

There will be extensive media coverage, but don't look for that on CNN or any other Euro-American network. Follow it instead with the rest of the world on al Jazeera. A full story of the plans is carried there at this link.

Chicano History

*
*
"We didn't cross the border;
the border crossed us."

What is important for the Mexican crossing the border into America, or El Otro Lado as it is called here, is not only his wages but that he does not forget himself, even more so. In a land of lies, twisted and hidden histories, and brainwash, he must always hang onto his own superior culture, or he is lost and nothing more than a victim of money. Living as though it is what is most important, like the lost people he works for. These people, who call themselves Americans, the result of how their nation was and is being made.
*
Here in the land of the scar left by America's theft, on both sides of the wound many of us are involved in both cultures which forms one of its own. In this border zone and what it has become, it is often called the land of Atztlan. Chicano is what many of the people call themselves. Mexican, with the heritage of centuries behind them, no matter what side of that false line.
*
Here is one of the many websites from Atzlan. The introduction page sends a good message, and the many pages linked to it hold excellent information. It shows the struggle of the these people to realize and save their own heritage. These issues and truths need to free themselves from the shadow of the United States and be seen by the world. It is important that not only is America exposed for what it is doing at the present, but also through its very guarded and false history.

Chicano History, Our History

"It's time for us to learn our true history, which includes over 4,000 years of civilization in Mexico, beginning with the Olmeca, and includes the Zapoteca, Purepecha, Mixteca, Tolteca, Teotihuacano, Maya, and Mexica-Azteca. We need to learn tha Mexico has been a European-Terrorist puppet regime for 500 years. We need to learn the history of the Chicano Movement, and all the great struggles that our forefathers and foremothers have made for us. Our people-not Europeans- are the pioneers of the Western Hemisphere. Our people are the rugged, hardy settlers of every square inch of it."
*
"Our history did not start the minute a White man stepped foot on this continent. 99% of our history happened BEFORE European Terrorists invaded our lands (50,000 yrs ago vs. 1492 - do the math). But what gets taught most is that 1%, and it gets taught from the Eurocentric TERRORIST point of view. We never learn the GENOCIDE of over 100 MILLION of our people (over 769 Hiroshimas) by European Terrorists".

*

"We have been invaded, colonized, murdered, enslaved, raped, ignored, and used as cheap labor for over 500 years, since Europeans arrived. They lecture us on how they have the right to defend what their ancestors stole from ours. But that we have no right to defend what was stolen from us. And they tell us this while they dwell on their "Greatest Generation" of World War II and Pearl Harbor. They call our ancestors "bloodthirsty" while they themselves were burning their own women alive over suspected "witchcraft" at Plymouth Rock, and lynching black and brown people well into the 1960's".

*
"They promised Civilization, but what we got were Prisons, Reservations, Barrios, mass burials and lily-white television programs for us to be hypnotized by. What we got was their White Male-God to kneel down to and worship. What we got were a few token success stories to make us think we have "made it."

*
"The Spaniard may have won the political/economic war, but genetically, the "Indian" won over the Spaniard. Genetically, we are much more of the "Indian" than Spaniard. Only 300,000 Spaniards came to Mexico, and they were mainly men. There were 24,000,000 (million) Indigenous people in Mexico. That's a 98.5 to 1.5 percent racial differential".

So Corrupt


(The Art of Agusti­n Portillo)
Three headline news stories today. This one, migrants showing the hypocrisy of the American immigration laws which for generations have made it easy to cross their borders to work illegally. The next, Luis Posada Carriles, America prepares to give bail to one of the worlds worst terrorist, showing that to them this is not really a crime they are worried about. And another headline, Agustin Portillo, a Mexican artist with too true a depiction of American people, he has had his visa revoked unfairly for it.

These articles show how America manipulates its system when they feel the need to. America's laws and rules are not to protect people or make a better nation, but merely tools of oppression for world dominance and personal harassment or favor. This nation uses the word corrupt continuously when it is pointing a finger, but they are that very thing themselves.

Fortress Mentality

Don´t fence me out!" say Mexicans


America's plans on building their border wall between them and their neighbor Mexico, shows what type of a nation they truly are. Oppressive and hostile, backwards and paranoid. With the example of the world and it's great fences thru history one would think America could learn from that. This nation has no shame to stooping to all the worst man can do to each other and all these examples of what they do should be heeded.


The link below from the El Universal newspaper is a very fair assessment of what the problems have been between the two nations and what is being done about it.


http://www2.eluniversal.com.mx/pls/impreso/web_columnas_sup.detalle?var=28006

"Central and South American countries have joined Mexico in deploring the Fortress America Mentality".

"As U.S. Ambassador Tony Garza said last week, of course the United States has the right to build a wall. He should keep in mind that it wouldn't exactly be a sign of progress for his government's hemispheric diplomacy. It would symbolize the deterioration of relations between the two nations".

"Sadly, there's plenty of political hay to be made in both countries from hysteria over the long-simmering quarrel. That's partly because immigration is not a stand-alone issue. It's mingled with worries about the cross-border drug trade and the terrorist fears that grip sizable sectors of the U.S. public".

Terrorist Reward


The US military has been distributing free water in quest of winning the hearts and minds of people it conquers. An article in the Mumbai Mirror carries a photo of US Army Col Jacqueline Lyons in Manila, as she displays a water bottle bearing likeness of a wanted terrorist and advertizing reward for capture.

US Should Join Latin America´s
War on Poverty
*

A future where the United States fits in with the majority of the continent is what is to be hoped for. It has the choices of giving up its policies and beliefs of world domination and oppression to become a civilized nation working for peace and the good of humanity. If they refuse to loosen their grasp, then it will have to be done for them. No longer can this be tolarated.

This link and the quotes, from Prensa Latina, shows Latin Americas view, which is soon to be the more important one in the eyes of the world.

"The continent´s growing push for unity and determination to fight poverty and exclusion is something that should be hailed instead of rejected by the United States". "Nonetheless, if the US continues its same course, supporting sell-out leaders and policies that only benefit a small elite, the forging of a new Latin America, the one dreamed of by liberation heroes Simon Bolivar and Jose Marti, may come sooner than thought possible only a few years ago".

American Hysteria

*
Mexican Family
*
Our beautiful Nation has been turned into a jungle by the mass invasion of illegal aliens - the streets of America; the neighborhoods and communities where we live; the malls and stores where we shop; the schools where our LEGAL children attend - and yes, even the churches where we worship - are now the Citadels of fear, bigotry, racism, physical danger and hate! The LEGAL children of America's 21st century have become the scapegoats and the victims of this invasion of illegal aliens. They have become - the get behind, the left behind, the back of the class, the back of the bus, the get off the playground, the get out of my way - pawns and victims of peer abuse and societal indifference".
*
http://www.mothersagainstillegalaliens.org/
*

"As Americans, most of us have come from other countries, as many of our grandparents struggled and went through the Legal process to become a Legal Americanan".


Here is a statement, taken from this site above, made of ignorance, and the thinking process being short circuited by severe brainwashing. The barrier of an ocean to cross to get where you want to go and a questionable line drawn on a map is two different things and results in different methods. If all these many Americans grandparents could have picked up and walked, like they always had, they would of. And I don't think they would have taken no for an answer. Especially if they were use to that "no" meaning, yes really, just slip across, it cost us less.
*
America has always had a doors open policy, anyone's country, after they jumped it and killed off most of the originals, or fenced them up. We don't have ships arriving here in Mexico to sell us papers and transport. We have feet and thousands of miles of border and no sure way for anything before we get there. Very few are allowed legal work permits, they are hard to get, time consuming and expensive. And if your sitting hungry in a village that times have changed, and all you know from rumor, there is work in the north you go. There is no applying for papers first, phone calls and lawyers to get you thru the loopholes. America beckons these people because their economy and their greed needs them, and at the same time feel a threat from them as their country slips from their grasp.
*
The world needs to see the sick side of America to understand its internal rot and the threat it poses to itself. This organization of mothers is based on hysteria that their government has brewed in them in order to promote their war on terrorism. This war is one of their most important as it defeats its own people at the same time. Loosing them their constitution and their freedom and endangering their safety by being a threat to the world that needs to bring them down

Everyone Knows

*
A revealing article from the Arts And Ideas section of the Moscow Times. Everywhere one looks, there is the Evil Bush and his criminal doings.
*
http://context.themoscowtimes.com/stories/2006/01/13/120.html
*
If President George W. Bush shows no qualms about violating the 217-year-old U.S. Constitution or the 791-year-old Magna Carta, why should we be surprised to find that he is now violating the 2,400-year-old Hippocratic Oath?
*
Last week Bush turned the screws even tighter on his Gitmo trash, signing a law that strips the captives of the ancient right of habeas corpus, which predates the Magna Carta. They are to have no access to the legal system, not even a simple declaration of why they are being held. What's more, last week Bush also asserted his right to ignore an anti-torture law he had just signed.
*
But just how far does the "Commander's" torture authority reach? To the crushing of an innocent child's testicles. So says John Yoo, the former deputy assistant attorney general who helped craft the official White House "torture memos" that justified any torture short of permanent maiming or death -- and even countenanced the latter if it was "unintentional."

And a few more sites, just in case the truth has a harder time getting through to some than others.

Very Annoying

US Presidunce Bush signed a new a US law on Thursday 5 January 2006 which makes it a federal crime to either post annoying web messages or send annoying email (that's the wording, believe it or not) without disclosing the sender's true identity. It applies to any one making any use of the internet in any manner while committing this annoying crime. Provisions of the new law were sneaked into Section 113 of H.R. 3402 titled Violence Against Women and Department of Justice Reauthorization Act of 2005.

The certain way for US citizens to acquire freedom of thought and word would be to join 10 million or so others in expatriation from their choking homeland to one where "freedom" is a word with more substantial meaning than nothing left to lose. But, all is not lost for those who remain and yet wish to fight the colosus from inside by saying what they damned well please. There is a way.

MyTrashMail is a Japanese based web service which permits sending email using any fake identity and return address desired, whether such exists or not. One can be gwbush@usgov.com if desired. An option is to have responses stored for reading. Otherwise, responses to non existent addresses go off into the ether's great bit bucket. If however a real address is used, no matter who's, the owner of that address will receive any responses. There is nothing in the message headers to indicate the email is anything but legitimate nor betray the source. Thinking "Let's you and him fight", consider what annoyances could pass between selected enemies.

There is a complicating work around which can be used just in case MyTrashMail should renege on promises and release a user internet address to law pigs. That is to not contact MyTrashMail directly but instead browse to them using an address masking service. Anonymouse in Germany does such a good job of that, it is dificult to even trace their location.

Bush The Terrorist

*

*
Memories of childhood, I remember this man Harry Belafonte from it. Records on the record player, concerts out under the open skies with my family. My first taste of Jamaican Music which has only grown. A black man bringing his talent to those who would listen. I still can hear the rhythms of him in my head right now. Smooth and peaceful. And now here he comes to my attention once again. This time it is his words, not his singing, that should be heard.


*
"I not only think that they are misguided, but I think they know exactly what they are doing, and I think that they are men who are possessed of evil"
*
See Guardian's story at this link


Belafonte accused U.S. news media of falsely painting Chavez as a dictator, when in fact, he said, there is democracy and citizens are optimistic about their future.

Deja Vu

Starting on 1 January, officials in Germany's state of Baden-Wuerttemberg have been given a list of 30 questions about what they call moral values to be used as guidelines during interviews with Muslims who are applying for German citizenship. They include applicants' opinions on homosexuality and how young women should dress. The list has been sharply criticized by Muslim groups and lawmakers, as well as Jewish leaders, who argue it is discriminatory. State officials in Baden-Wuerttemberg have defended the list as a fair way to assess whether future citizens uphold the values guaranteed by Germany's constitution.

World's Best Writing

Each year, the winners of Nobel Prizes present acceptance speeches on the work for which they are honored. Those are generally given wide press coverage. Laureate Harold Pinter's December 7, 2005 soliloquy on receiving his Nobel Prize for literature was accorded little if any note in British or USA press. Its content may explain why. The entire speech may be read at this link.

Pinter details US foreign policy's bloody de facto conquest throughout the world and spanning US administrations from Reagan through the latest Bush, as "Low intensity conflict (which) means that thousands of people die but slower than if you dropped a bomb on them in one fell swoop. It means that you infect the heart of the country, that you establish a malignant growth and watch the gangrene bloom. When the populace has been subdued – or beaten to death – the same thing – and your own friends, the military and the great corporations, sit comfortably in power, you go before the camera and say that democracy has prevailed." Pinter characterizes this as "criminal outrage" in which the entire so called developed "international community" through profit participation and nuclear fear, is complicit in ignoring and allowing.

The invasion of Iraq is described as a "...bandit act of blatant state terrorism, demonstrating absolute contempt for the concept of international law..." and responsible for the "death and mutilation of thousands and thousands of innocent people". He qualifies Blair and Bush as "mass murderer(s)" and "war criminal(s)" who consider their own more than 2000 dead as no more than "an embarrassment".

Pinter, judged the world's best current composer of thought, concludes by volunteering to serve as a Bush speech writer and submits this example:

"God is good. God is great. God is good. My God is good. Bin Laden's God is bad. His is a bad God. Saddam's God was bad, except he didn't have one. He was a barbarian. We are not barbarians. We don't chop people's heads off. We believe in freedom. So does God. I am not a barbarian. I am the democratically elected leader of a freedom-loving democracy. We are a compassionate society. We give compassionate electrocution and compassionate lethal injection. We are a great nation. I am not a dictator. He is. I am not a barbarian. He is. And he is. They all are. I possess moral authority. You see this fist? This is my moral authority. And don't you forget it."
