A Message to the Anti-war Demonstrators duko 2005-09-20 11:41 PM
<p>Guantanamo. . . “shock and awe”. . . “collateral damage”. . . Fallujah. . . Abu Ghraib. Behind the words stand the cities reduced to rubble, the bodies in the streets, the hooded prisoners, the kicked-down doors, and the children—crying in terror or silently watching the humiliation of their parents. All justified by outrageous lies.</p> <p>The horror grinds on, every day.</p> <p>Iraq cannot wait.</p> <p>Iraq cannot wait for “pendulum swings.” Iraq cannot wait for possible resolutions to set “reasonable” deadlines for hypothetical timetables. Iraq cannot wait for the 2006 U.S. elections—especially (but not only) when the major Democrats all <em>oppose</em> withdrawal from Iraq, and some even support <em>more troops</em> being sent.</p> (text/html + 2 comments)

Feds See Little Need for Healthcare Volunteers michael 2005-09-20 7:19 PM
The federal Deptartment of Health & Human Services today sent the following message to people who signed up as volunteer healthcare workers (click 'continue reading').

AT LEAST 60 LIVING PEOPLE LEFT TO DIE IN MILITARY MORGUE DR. MARK N. PERLMUTTER 2005-09-20 7:42 AM
He saw 80 of the people in the morgue, and 60 of them were still alive, in the morgue, waiting to die in a room they call the expectancy room. He begged for -- he begged for four of those people to be removed. For all of them to be reevaluated, the chief medical officer at the time, whose name he didn't catch said, "I'm sorry, they have to stay there to die." He then went to another chief medical officer who allowed him to take four people out and Reverend Noland tells me that alls they needed was water to come back to life. (text/plain + 2 comments)

KATRINA: BUSH'S acceptance of responsibility is a joke FARHAT MAQUAMI 2005-09-19 12:17 PM
Bush administration is culpable not only for failure to repaire the levees which led to death and destruction of New Orleans, but for forcible dislocation of thousands of poor blacks from their roots and community. No American patriot should accept Bush’s apologies to the victims of catastrophe. Anyone who let Bush walk away from this should let all criminals who confess and accept responsibility for a crime go free. Admission of responsibility does not absolve his culpability. To accept responsibility is confession to a crime of negligent homicide. The real contrition is in acceptance of punishment. There exists tons of research papers, State’s requests, official demands and news prints analysis which points to the upcoming catastrophe if levees are not repaired. It was an obvious failure in the chain of command. Nixon resigned, Clinton was impeached even for a far less significant misdeeds! (text/plain)
