DOCUMENT 1: Program of the Human Rights Film Festival in Glasgow

05-09-2003 10:22

"Document 1 is Glasgow's first ever International Human Rights Documentary Film Festival. The main focus is to show work from the regions around the world where asylum seekers in Glasgow have come from.
In doing so, the films will give asylum seekers a chance to see what is happening in their country of origin and give other residents of Glasgow an opportunity to see everyday life in such countries. These films, whilst explaining the conflicts which people have involuntarily had to flee, also show the richness of their societies and cultures."

Executive Order 13315: The Official Looting of Iraq

04-09-2003 19:51

Executive order 13315, which Bush signed on 8/28/03, was published in the Federal Register on 9/3/03. It expands upon executive order 13303, and appears to be an asset grab under the guise of funding the Iraqi reconstruction, placing Iraq's state assets under control of the U.S. Treasury: in effect, the official looting of Iraq. Very convenient for a government which seeks to hand over control of Iraq to UN peacekeepers. This executive order has had zero corporate media coverage as of today.

Open letter to Blunkett

04-09-2003 15:08

I've been writing to my MP, David Blunkett, about Britain's use of D.U. weapons. Predictably, he refuses to answer any questions about them. I had a lengthy correspondence with him & a face-to-face interview before the invasion of Iraq. Needless to say, he is DEAF as well as blind...
