A tale of two crises Lebanon rebuilds, New Orleans waits
Ytzhak
2006-08-31 7:22 PM In the Middle East, after a month of Israeli bombing, the people of Lebanon are digging themselves out from the rubble and struggling to return to their homes. In the United States, a full year after Hurricane Katrina, the people of New Orleans are still fighting to do the same thing: return home. It might seem odd to compare the two. After all, Lebanon is recovering from war, and New Orleans from a natural disaster and broken levees. But this is only the superficial story. A look at the New Orleans relief effort and its aftermath shows that poor people’s right to return home has become just as much a battle there as it is in Lebanon. In the United States, the New Orleans relief effort was spearheaded by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, Washington’s disaster relief arm. In Lebanon it is being organized by Hezbollah, the grassroots Lebanese resistance movement that George W. Bush calls “terrorist.”

Army Retaliation against Sgt. Donald Buswell, the 911 NCO
Captain Eric H. May
2006-08-29 6:11 PM The US Army has done the only thing it could do in its attempt to undermine the "911 NCO," Sergeant Donald Buswell, who has become a central figure in the 911 Truth Movement by calling for a new 911 investigation -- and being attacked for it. Sergeant Buswell, it turns out, has powerful comrades in the State Department who present a big problem for a military bent on defaming him for his position of principle and his mission of conscience.

Voters everywhere agree political system "badly broken"
Rasmussen Reports survey
2006-08-29 12:54 AM The Rasmussen Reports surveys were conducted as part of a series of Election 2006 polls on Senate and Governor's races across the nation.
An earlier, national, survey found that just 48% of American adults believe that elections are generally fair to voters. That number has been fairly consistent since we began polling on the topic in the mid-90s. The only change has been the partisan details. In the 1990s, with a Democrat in the White House, (text/plain)
Is this Bush's secret bunker?
The Guardian
2006-08-29 12:08 AM Mount Weather first caught the American imagination on December 1 1974, when a Dulles-bound TransWorld Airlines 727, struggling through heavy rains and 50mph winds, crashed into the top of the mountain, less than a mile and a half from the site. The crash briefly severed the underground line linking to the Emergency Broadcast System, and teletype machines in news offices across the country began spitting out garbled transmissions.

Edward Bernays and
BBC
2006-08-28 8:14 AM This seven-minute video which I call "The Assassin of Democracy" focuses on one of the most skillful and amoral expert of all the experts in mass manipulation, Edward Bernays. Bernays got his first taste of the power of propaganda during World War I. He advised US presidents from Woodrow Wilson to Einsehower and served numerous corporations and business associations. One of his biggest fans was Hitler's propaganda chief, Joseph Goebbels, a fact about which Bernays bragged proudly. (text/plain)

Democrat Gatekeeper's Camptown Races Do-Da
Ed Ward, MD
2006-08-27 10:21 PM What do you do when America's discontent with the democrat's (rats, dims, or for a real laugh democratic) and the republican's (repugs) party is at an all time high? Enough correct and righteous outrage that many simply call both parties - the party of elitists. Democrats formed other democrat groups such as the ADA, Americans for Democratic (apparently, democratic substituting for democrat similar to the currently spun substitution of democracy) Action. The ADA states, "...we lobby through coalition partnerships, through direct advocacy, and through media." The direct inference being democrats will lobby through a 'coalition partners' without the recognized connection of direct advocacy. According to democrat spin this stated strategy seems to also make the word deception interchangeable for democrat, democratic and even democracy. (text/plain)
