Lebanon: Full Color Pictures of the Atrocities

Two bodies aflame, after Israeli bombings in Lebanon In the last few weeks, an increasing number of horrible, very upsetting photos of the massacres committed by Israel have been coming out of Lebanon.

The alternative media are doing everything possible to break the censorship of images that was enforced by the Corporate and authoritarian State media which only show a sanitized war, disinfected images of material destruction.

The smuggling and widespread dissemination of images from The Realm of The Real that are coming out out of Lebanon and Gaza now make all of us uncomfortable. For those of us who do editing and publishing work, they bring up the awful worry of "is this appropriate?"

Moore's Law Ending Is Threat to MSFT--Indymedia Connection

Indymedia was born of necessity in Seattle in 1999 as a way to bypass the corporate media and report on a WTO conference. As an Indymedia founder (quoted below) stated, it was also necessary to bypass corporate software -- Windows. What most don't know is how much trouble the Windows/Microsoft/Intel monopoly is in, and what THIS means for computing and the economy. For one thing, it means that such bypasses as that of the Seattle IMC will be easier and commoner.  http://home.earthlink.net/~moores-law/

Britain's positioning on the Israeli side by helping the sifting of bombs from the US has made us all participants in the murder of Lebanon’s children, in a clear act of terror on innocent civilians. Thank you New Labour for making me a terrorist.

bunker-busting bomb-maker UK places

Re: The recent story about the US pushing ahead its order of bunker busting bombs to Israel, refuelling the transport planes at Prestwick airport in Scotland... the makers of those bombs are Raytheon and they have several offices and works in the UK, so I'm spreading the info around in the hope that people will pay them some attention. These bombs cause a vacuum, basically sucking the air out of people's lungs (as well as collapsing buildings, etc), and it looks to me that the attacks in lebanon are all against civilians - terror attacks, collective punishment, call it what you will, but designed to scare the living daylights out of the population.
