The Ant Man Exits: War Crime Accomplice Canned for Insufficient Groveling

12-03-2008 01:12

If Admiral William Fallon really was the only man standing between us and a new war with Iran, as Esquire magazine claimed recently -- well, he's gone now.

While it's true that he voiced some disagreement over the timing and tactics of the White House's bellicose approach to Iran, he also made his true opinion of the possibility of an assault on Iran abundantly clear, telling Esquire:

"These guys are ants. When the time comes, you crush them."

REPORT WILL BE PRESENTED IN EUROPE

THE UK HOME OFFICE: "GAY PEOPLE CAN RETURN TO IRAN, IF THEY ARE 'DISCREET'"

In an article published on Friday March 7th 2008, in the The Independent, Simon Hughes, leader of the Liberal Democrats and the party's Shadow Leader in the House of Commons, stated: "The Home Office claims that a gay person can return to Iran and avoid persecution by being "discreet". All advice suggests that in Iran, to be discreet means that you would have to deny your identity. The punishment for giving in to personal feelings might well be nothing less than torture or death".

The same theory had was pointed out by the members of the NNRF (Nottingham and Notts Refugee Forum) years ago: "The Home Office claims that if a gay person is less obvious about being gay or lesbian they won’t attract the attention of their persecutors," writes Richard McCance on the refugees' association's website.

The EveryOne Group, that, since its launch, has promoted, along with the Non-Violent Radical Party, Transnational and Transparty, and the Nessuno Tocchi Caino and Certi Diritti associations, a campaign in support of its member Seyed Mehdi Kazemi, is going to present a written deposition to the European Union objecting to the UK Home Office's behaviour towards refugees claiming asylum.

Summary of gaping holes in UK government's official 7/7 narrative

08-03-2008 18:36

I don't pretend that this is 100% accurate or entirely comprehensive but it's my attempt - following the Press TV 'London Bombings Enquiry Debate' to sum up the most cogent holes in the official 7/7 story. What are your general thoughts about what I might have missed and/or over-egged? Any peer reviewing by your good selves the public and experts which will help me hone it down appreciated. As you may remember I put out a pledge appeal for some dosh to make a film on this subject but didn't get enough takers.

Why voting in the London Assembly elections is anti-fascist

07-03-2008 11:09

Jennette Arnold is chair of the Labour Group on the London Assembly. Whilst there might be a lot of people who read Indymedia that have little interest in what a Labour politician has to say, she sets out very convincingly an argument as to how voting in May's London Assembly elections for anyone but the BNP will decrease their chances of gaining any seats. The article is from the Guardian:  http://commentisfree.guardian.co.uk/jennette_arnold/2008/03/why_i_fear_the_bnp.html

To summarise: Seats are awarded proportionally. The BNP need 5% of the vote to get a seat. The more people who vote for anyone other than the BNP, the more votes the BNP need to secure to win a seat. Simple as that!
