03-08-2006 04:50
The victims are subject to change. But the Perpetrators have been at it for a century. Something MUST be done about the U.S.-UK Oil Cartel (Exxon-Mobil-Chevron---BP & Shell) for the sake of peace, social and political justice, and to deal with doomsday Global Warming. Grassroots Public information Campaigning to educate & politically activate the GENERAL PUBLIC -- university/college students in particular -- is the ONLY WAY to overcome the Corporation-Government-corporate Mass Media axis.Lebanon, Syria, Iran & The Coming Imperialist Re-Division of the World
02-08-2006 17:38
London, 1st August 2006The sheer brutality of the butchery of civilians by Israeli WMD –
bombs and fighter planes provided by the United States – on Lebanon
is firstly a warning to the rest of the world from the United
States: `accept US global domination, or else'; and secondly, it is
the beginning of a serious struggle for all-out control over Middle-
East, Caspian Basin and Central Asian oil and gas. It is not the
puppet Israel but the US itself who sets the tone of this
purposefully brutal war, a war which opens up a qualitative change
in US aggression and inter-imperialist conflict, a period that will
draw the whole world into intensifying horrors and suffering. At the
same time this new period opens a large window for the dramatic re-
appearance of world-wide mass class struggle bringing workers and
youth back into the centre-stage of global politics.

02-08-2006 08:43
This article is about corporate crooks who have emerged after spending long careers at the Royal Dutch Shell Group. Shell once had a proud global reputation in the days when we could be sure of Shell. That all changed after a series of scandals, including the reserves scandal which was described in a BBC TV programme as the biggest corporate fraud in history.Defining Free Speech

Why has the noun and right of free speech been removed from the 10th edition of the Oxford Dictionary? Does this have anything to do with Tony the Toad's rediculous Socpa Act? Are you old enough to remember Perry Mason, the detective? Do you like secret societies? I have a few questions in my mind...G8 Summit, St Petersburg, Russia - On the ground 3

Saturday 15 July. My English contacts were nowhere to be found in the camp. After some searching and chasing I contacted them by phone only to find they were holed-up somewhere in the city, too fearful of a complete police lockdown of Kirov stadium, which would put a serious damper on any actions they were planning.Directions to AntiG8 Camp, Germany

FILIPINAS EVERYWHERE
29-07-2006 06:18
In the context of the profound economic and political crisis in the Philippines today, what could be the significance of celebrating the one-hundred-year anniversary of the coming of Filipino contract labor to Hawaii? Are Filipinos the new compradors for the militarist U.S. Empire? Or are they harbingers of a new generation of combatants from the oppressed communities, from the internal colonies of the metropoles? At the turn of the last century, the revolutionary leader Rosa Luxemburg elegized the plight of the subjugated natives in "las islas filipinas." Today, U.S. Special Forces are back to reconquer the neocolony, with the natives no longer smiling, now up in arms, united with people of color in Mexico, Venezuela, Palestine, Lebanon, Hawaii, Nepal, and other battlefronts of our beleaguered planet.

Israel's barbaric policies against Palestinians prompted worldwide calls to boycott it, its products and all companies, and organisations that provide it with the ability to continue its agression, which has claimed the lives of many innocent civilians, including women and children.
