notes from new palestine: revolutionary suicidal tendencies (the war brought home) Ytzhak 2005-09-05 9:32 AM

perhaps this has become a war/a battle for our self esteem—a collective esteem held in our hearts that everyday is a struggle to maintain a principle in the purity of lost lives in everyland which holds a truth. The truth is still with those who have experienced the taunting, the violence, the disrespect, the rapes, the harassment, the murders -- the lies and manipulations. Those who have fallen and have had compadres/conferes/comrades/bruhs and homies lost to the callousness of the system and to the sociopaths what serve it and it’s ministry of social engineering who will try and beat us all down into an unconsciousness of passivity, (image/jpeg)

White & Black Alike, Unite Against The Bush Nazis notepad 2005-09-05 1:43 AM
We have been spoon fed a pack of lies from day one - this apparent willful campaign to mislead the public is very deep, so far reaching, and if not understood by the general public, could ultimately lead to full martial law being declared across the United States. (text/html + 1 comment)

Crisis and Crisis Management in Hurricane Katrina: A Radical Critique Ben Grosscup 2005-09-05 12:50 AM
Stepping back from the horrid immediacies this situation presents, we can discern two intimately connected aspects of our social reality that bear upon the disaster: First, we see the present market-based social and economic order where each must fend for him or herself without any background assurance that society will help when in need. Second, we see that the relationship of this social order with its natural environment is one of dangerous ecological imbalance. These two aspects of our social reality are intimately connected, and as this disaster reveals with horrifying clarity, they exacerbate each other's effects. (text/plain)

The federal official in charge of the bungled New Orleans rescue was fired from his last private-sector job overseeing horse shows. And before joining the Federal Emergency Management Agency as a deputy director in 2001, GOP activist Mike Brown had no significant experience that would have qualified him for the position. The Oklahoman got the job through an old college friend who at the time was heading up FEMA. (text/plain)

..he also worked in Russia for years, both before and after the fall of the Berlin Wall, and organized relief in the immediate aftermath of Chernobyl. He doesn't post here, but he wrote this - he's been on the phone day and night for the past five days trying to get someone to OK the offered assistance.

All citizens stranded by Katrina need to know: The US gov't is giving $2.2 billion to Israel, so they can pay each settler family $200,000 to relocate. And get this- every single settler already has a place to sleep... Will the US gov't pay $200,000 for each family displaced by Katrina? (text/plain + 1 comment)
