text ¡Ni un solo casco azul al Líbano! PCInt. 2006-08-21 7:15 PM
La guerra de Israel en el Líbano tiene varios aspectos. Algunos corresponden a la política de Israel con respecto a su territorio, otros a la política imperialista estadounidense en Medio Oriente de la cual Israel es su instrumento fundamental, más allá vemos la constante inestabilidad de un país como el Líbano y de una población como la palestinense, indomable frente a los diversos Estados del área en la cual sobrevive separada y prófuga, pero incapaz históricamente de emanciparse de la opresión nacional impuesta desde hace un siglo, primero por el colonialismo inglés y, luego, por el sionismo.

text Revolution DVD screenings new orleans volunteers 2006-08-21 4:27 PM
As we approach the first anniversary of Katrina, millions are horrified and angry. The world watched as the government left hundreds of thousands stranded, unleashed the National Guard with shoot-to-kill orders, and branded people struggling to survive as criminal "looters." In contrast, Katrina highlighted the strength and courage of the masses of people, who organized themselves to rescue, feed, and house other victims. Over the past year, tens of thousands of people, overwhelmingly poor and black, have been barred from returning to their homes. The people of New Orleans have seen the horrors that define this capitalist system. But the world does not have to be this way. As we commemorate this anniversary by intensifying our resistance—declaring, "Never Forgive and Never Forget", we must allow ourselves to envision a whole different world—one brought into being by the revolutionary upsurge of the people.

text Bombs in the WTC Buildings Proves Nothing to Racist-Fascist Bigots Ed Ward, MD 2006-08-19 11:03 PM
For the first time, this article finally allows Lou to tell his story, the way he wanted to tell it - truthfully and to the best of his knowledge. The article gives more than just the facts as he lived them. It gives insight into the fate of all the heroes present on that despicable day. A fate that awaits other eyewitnesses of the clean up crews and city inhabitants that had inadequate or no protection because the EPA had stated the air was safe to breathe. (text/plain)

text Civil Society Relief Is Not Enough: Katrina Survivors Need Public Services. Mike Howells 2006-08-19 6:53 PM
Almost a year after Katrina the situation prevailing in New Orleans demonstrates that the rebuilding of this city with justice cannot be accomplished by the works, however well intentioned, of civil society. For the Right of Return to become a reality the hundreds of thousands of New Orleanians who still languish in exile, public services, at the very least will have to be restored to pre-Katrina levels. To accomplish this individuals and groups fighting for the Right of Return will have to build a mass movement strong enough to reverse the the ruling class dismantling of public services that has transpired in the city following Katrina. Building such a movement requires a realization on the part of activists and others that illusions about the capacity of civil society groups to get the job of rebuilding New Orleans with justice seriously hamper the attainment of the end goal of the movement.

text 100's of "behavior police" in the works. Just airports for now. Look for more Eric Lipton 2006-08-17 9:14 PM
100's of "behavior police" in the works. Just airports for now. Look for more expansion. Already used minimally by police now as "suspicious" behavior (justification of car searches and more). Look for more of the thought police - coming soon for you and me. "We could do much better, and we should because it could save lives." "Instead, the assignment is to find anyone with evil intent." "You just don't know what I am going to see." Frightening stuff. (text/plain)
