FBI Warns Corporate Leaders Of Possible Attacks By Antiwar Activists
OK Mr. Secret Agent Man. We peaceniks are all about peace and non violent solutions. We want to feed the starving masses, unchain the slaves, liberate the poor, and grow our own food on our organic hobby farms. The last thing we want to do is is cause more terror and more despair. half of us don't even eat meat and therefore can't muster up enough violent forethought to plan something terrible. Ugly ugly ugly accusations Mr. Secret Agent Man.
Debunking the bin Laden tape
"I think it's a good way to scare people so that they're more ready to accept a war on Iraq," he says.
Merry Christmas, Peace on Earth and Goodwill to all men (& us girls too)!
We can avoid WAR if we have the guts!
They stopped the war for just a while in 1914. Maybe there is hope for us afterall.
Possible Sulphuric Acid spill in Bosphorus Strait
I have sailed through the Bosphorus Strait and it is a beautiful sight. Along every inch of the horizon is the minarets of gorgeous domed mosques. I have no idea what 5000 tons of sulphuric acid will do to the water but it can't be good.
INS Arrest Numbers Inflated, U.S. Says
We have all heard by now about how law abiding Muslims and Arabs showed up at INS offices only to be arrested and detained as possible terrorists. These men were only arrested because they were Muslim or Arab. How long will it be before all Muslims and Arabs will have to be held in concentration camps for(ahem)their protection. Will they confiscate and sell their belongings just like they did to the Japanese in WW2?
17000 Jordanians Sign Up To Be HUMAN SHEILDS in Iraq!
Will they be bombed anyway? The Jordanian Government supports them with the caveat they are on a suicide mission. All I can say is that these people have guts to stand up for what they believe in. Far more guts than a certain consumerist, materialistic, if it feels good just do it population that supports blowing the Arab population of the face of the Earth!
Sanctions shut down Iraqi Ice Cream Factory
Ok I just want to say that I care less for the Iraqi diet sans ice cream focus than I do about the fact the ingredients used to make ice cream and other dairy treats can also be used to make nukes!!??!!
Eww what have we been eating!
US Pilots took Speed Before Killing Canadians!
Speed makes people cocky, overconfident and a gives them a sense of megalomania. Makes sense to dole it out to young men who may have misgivings about dropping bombs on civilians.
Oil Spill Makes Humans Sick!
Their fishing industry is dead, the beaches are black and sticky, and now they have rashes and fainting spells. I hope someone responsible goes to jail over this!
A Humvee for the masses!
This vehicle is obscene as it uses over 20 litres per 100kms. How stupid! But of course you never know when you may have to go off road on the way to Safeway.
Likud Party so corrupt even Israeli press has turned on them!
This story is incredible and I am sure it is just developing. The good news is that Sharon may lose his job. Better yet, maybe they can throw him in jail for war crimes.
New Weapon of the Week!!
I remember the talk a few years ago about "that WOMAN" who worked for Saddam Hussein making biological weapons of mass destruction. She was referred to as the most evil of evil women since Eve. Glad to know the Pentagon knows where to find evil women as well.
"Bush Should Accept Saddam's Challenge to Duel"
I have just read and signed the online petition.
I personally agree with what this petition says, and I think you might agree, too. If you can spare a moment, please take a look, and consider signing yourself.
Best wishes,
Conspiracy Girl Friend
Pearl Harbor could have been avoided.
I really don't know what to say about this. The story itself is an argument for pre-emptive stiking against foes...something anti-war types argue against. The US may have known the Japanese were going to strike but they could not have known how bad it was going to be. They could only guess. Maybe the issue here isn't the US did nothing to avoid the attack and perhaps hoped the attack would take place but rather they should have simply told the world what they knew. It would certainly have foiled Japan's plans. Which of course brings us to the issue of the US having all sorts of proof of Iraq about to attack the US in some sort of way but the US is unwilling to provide what their proof is. ie: if they know where the weapons of mass destruction are, tell the inspection team so they can go and find them.
Be a Human Sheild!
I think we will need many more people to take this kind of personal risk to have any sort of effect on the coming war. However it all starts with just one or two people. If you are not willing to be a nuke target in Iraq, at least organise some sort of protest here at home.
Octopus smarter than DUBYA!
Ok ok so its a stretch but it might be true!!!
When Dolphins attack!
Ok I am beyond depressed here. Actually I have this theory the El Nino and El Nina systems have been screwing up where the fish are hiding out and the Cod are safe and sound, relaxing in Bermuda or some other nice place. It's possible isn't it?????
"The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral, begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy. Instead of diminishing evil, it multiplies it... Through violence you may murder the hater, but you do not murder hate. In fact, violence merely increases hate.... Returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."
- Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Lovesick teen almost triggers WWIII
What surprises me most about this article is the fact nobody had a clue what the writing said before they issued a red alert. After they FINALLY tracked down a translater, they discovered the message was sweet and enduring. Why isn't there a translater on staff all the time?
You’re Ariel Sharon, and Life is Good
Another to Hell in a Handbasket editorial. BTW, use your brains please. Criticism of one man who happens to be Jewish does not mean anti-semitism. The real anti-semitism is being unable to criticise any person, no matter how many crimes they commit simply because they are Jewish.
Total Information Awareness
I love Mark Fiore! Now does life imitate art or does art imitate life? I can't remember anymore.
Someone recently tried to sell dirt from the Pickton farm on EBay.
Ok what could be more disgusting than this? I can't imagine what sort of freak would pay money for a souvenier of this sort but it is truly barbaric. When I read stuff like this I wonder if the world really is going to hell in a handbasket. If this is the rot we have to offer after 6 or 7 thousand years of civilisation, then maybe we do need to be blown to kingdom come in WWIII.
Palestinians and Israelis who have lost children to the conflict make use of their moral authority to speak out together
Vacancy in Space
Ok like there are people starving on Earth right now...like skin and bones starving because there is no money to transport a Big Mac and Fries to the parched drought ridden desert that used to be their farms. So lets see...100's of Billions of bucks to hang out in Space or feeding starving children and buying meds to cure STUPID and UNNECESARY diseases like Leprosy and Rickets and Polio. Well gee the choice is clear...isn't it?
P.S This is the reason terrorists get mad and blow things up.
Osama Bin Ladin States His Case.
It is a sad state of affairs that in 2002, we are fighting the same war that has been fought for 2000 or more years. We are still fighting over a few hectares of land in the tiny West Bank. What nobody ever talks about except for the allusion in this letter attributed to Bin Laden, is the Palestinians of today used to be Hebrews...probably Jewish...most likely Jewish before the spread of Islam. Jews or Christians that converted to Islam so many many years ago. Does brothers killing brothers put a different spin on the situation?
Cloned baby about to be born!
Wow what can one say about this. I have heard that cloned cells are as old as the donor is. That means if they use 30 year old cells, the new baby is already 30. When the baby gets to be 30, it would really be 60. Personally I think this is a mess just waiting to happen. I sure wouldn't want to be a clone. There are enough people in this world already isn't there? Do we really need to start cloning? I think it is actually pretty selfish to desire to reproduce so badly you resort to cloning. Right now there are thousands maybe millions of orphans in Africa who can only dream of adoption by Western parents. If someone truly cares for children instead of just fullfilling their hormonal urges, they would adopt.
Alien Spiders from the pit of HELL! AHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Ok I just want to say I was afraid of spiders before I read this story and now I am about to faint. Maybe the spiders have caught wind of WWIII and think they have a very good chance of becoming the new super species on Earth. Yeah...They are just starting on their infrastructure...that's right, spidery infrastructure.
Meanwhile...In Argentina
Umm yeah you remember that big land mass south of us? No, farther south than Mexico. There are several countries there that no one in North America remembers until the World Cup. They call this place SOUTH America. One of the countries there is Argentina...As in don't cry for me Argentina? Yeah that's right. Anyway the situation has become so terrible their children are beginning to die from starvation. Are you hearing about this between news reports about Saddams armpits? No? Write a letter to your local news station and ask them why.
I just can't believe what I heard in class yesterday. In a course I am taking on the sociology of religion, I was listening to an interesting lecture on the reality vs. non reality of brainwashing. Believe it or not, Saddam Hussein was compared to Jim Jones!!! We also learned that at the end of the war Hitler, knowing he was facing defeat wanted to nuke Germany off the face of the planet!!! Will Saddam try and do the same thing??!!! Oh no we need to go to war right now! If we don't nuke Iraq right now, innocent Iraqis will die at the hands of that evil madman Hussein! I am so glad I attend the highest priced school in the country and get to learn how everything I have ever known so far is wrong!!!
Was this subtle enough for ya?
THE BRIGHT SIDE OF OIL SPILLING!
It turns out we are having accidents less often and spilling less oil! I know a way to stop spilling oil forever...do you?
"Air pollution comes from trees,"
I think it's going to be one of those days I wish I stayed in bed.
Organizer Julia Morley denied that it had been irresponsible to stage the show in Nigeria.
Who was the braindead architect of this mess? Let's see I wanna hold a contest where women parade almost naked and are judged on their physical attributes and other ability to entertain men for a cash prize...where is a good locale...hmmm how about NIGERIA! Thats it! The Nigerians who are already busy killing each other over the implementation of Sharia Law need a bit of escapism! Man I am just too shrewd to be lewd!
gas guzzling Herb
"Minister Herb Dhaliwal confessed that, well, he has two Volvos and two sport utility vehicles -- General Motors 4x4s, to be precise. One pair for Ottawa and one pair for his home in Vancouver."
Wow must be nice!!! The good news is that most of us can't afford four cars and won't take his example.
"Fascism should more properly be called corporatism, since it is the merger of state and corporate power." -- Benito Mussolini.
IDF shoots 8 yr old boy
You throw a rock at the tank of the bad men who are stopping you from getting enough to eat and in response they kill you. Quite sickening really yet hardly anyone dares criticise the IDF...because if they do they will be branded anti-semitic.
Internet Flamer Personalities
Is it just me or does Paula Zahn look puffy this morning? She sure is happy to tell the world about Saddam's evil fishing habits and bizarre armpit fetish. I guess she finally has some proof Saddam might be...unique. Oh well! I change my mind about everything! Let's nuke Iraq into dust and convert the survivors to Christianity. Oops sorry, that was Ann Coulter's line. (sorry about that bit of plagiarism Ann).
Ok ok I didn't really change my mind. Whatever Saddam does with his armpits in the privacy of his own bedroom is fine with me. No reason for GENOCIDE or anything drastic. Oh and that fishing with grenades thing? Nukes will take care of any pesky fish Iraq may have left. Does this mean impending "Regime Change" to punish all our politicians that are allowing industry to foul up our environment?
Terrible effects of depleted Uranium
"The risk in Kosovo and elsewhere in the Balkans is augmented by the uncertainty of where DU was dropped in whatever form and what winds and surface water movements spread it further. Working the fields, walking about, just being there, touching objects, breathing and drinking water are all risky. A British expert predicted that thousands of people in the Balkans will get sick of DU. The radioactive and toxic DU-oxides don't disintegrate. They are practically permanent."
Wow. This page has a couple of pictures of babies who were born deformed so you may not want to look if you are sensitive to this. They are small and at the very bottom of the page. This is the cost of war. Perhaps because the article deals with people exposed to radiation in Kosovo, you know...a European country...people will be a little more interested. No human should have to deal with this sort of crisis. If you think radiation fallout is a good punishment for Iraqi civilians, you better rethink everything you are about.
Why Reagan Was Famous
This is a great little essay I found on Bartcop. I always wondered why Reagan is refered to fondly as "The Gipper". Disapointing really. Actors are not the people they portray.
Miracle Child
This is an amazing story. Hopefully this little boy will make a full recovery. I have heard of young children surviving and recovering fully from an unfortunate dip in freezing waters.
Jackson would have lost his brats in Canada
"In Canada, child-welfare authorities said that if the singer tried the stunt anywhere near them, he'd have to answer to police and a few social workers."
See now I am just amazed at this story. Why would anyone in their right mind dangle a kid off a balcony. I assume he did it to show his fans his new baby but...gee what if he slipped or something, or the baby wriggled. He took quite the chance.
Mccallum Tells off Bush
"I think that is a Canadian matter, I think that a number of Canadians were a little bit ticked off ... So while Mr. Bush may be asking for what I'm asking for, I'm not asking for his help." (John Mccallum Canada's Defense Minister)
I am glad to know someone finally has some guts to stand up to tyrants
Israel rejects black Hebrews as Jews
How is this not racism? Could you imagine the outcry if Christianity did not recognize Blacks? Granted this group is unique in their specific beliefs but the implication is there is one "approved" form of the Jewish Religion mandated by the Israeli government. Who decides which beliefs are allowable? And why does the expulsion of "heretics" seem acceptable? Dangerous stuff.
Americans can't find Iraq!
Well what a surprise! Maybe the troops will get lost on the way and the world will be saved.
Several years ago, I heard Margaret Atwood speak at a Canadian University. She was explaining her book the Handmaid's Tale and how it would prove to be a prophetic work. At the time I considered her brain had become addled but each and every day since 9/11 things get worse and worse. When will it end? How much longer will CNN anchors sell out and regurgitate pro-war, anti liberty propaganda. Just today I saw Paula Zahn and cohorts assurring America there was no need to worry about the new restrictions on liberty unless you were already involved in criminal activity. I hope Paula never has to defend herself at a secret military tribunal. Peace Now!
Ex-Taliban says tortured in Cuba prison
"I heard the Arabs were taken out and forced to stand among the practice targets on the shooting range. The soldiers used
dummy bullets, but they were trying to terrify and intimidate the al Qaeda members," Mohammad said.
Can this crap be true? What is happening to the world?
Damaged oil tanker sinking off Spanish coast
Worse then the Exxon Valdez? Just one more reason to buy an electric car!
The Mother of all Conspiracies...Solved at last!
You know if this wasn't funny you would have to read a diatribe about the lack of respect shown to these damn good conspiracies!
An obnoxious amount of pop-ups so beware. I warned you.
Have you been charged with conspiracy?
You know if there was no such thing as conspiracy, they wouldn't have a law against it!
Start your own Religion
War for General Audiences!!
When was the last time you went to a war movie that didn't include blood, guts and grown men calling out for Mommy?
Warmongers trip Blix
"The United Nations chief weapons inspector, Hans Blix, yesterday accused hawks in Washington, who are bent on going to war with Iraq, of conducting a smear campaign against him. "
I guess it would so totally harsh their mellow if Iraq actually complied with their demands eh?
Well here we are ON THE BRINK OF WORLD WAR III! and do you think anyone gives a shit? Doesn't seem like it. They are going to blow the Middle East off the face of the Earth with no concern to the millions of innocent people who live there and no concern for the soldiers who will lose their lives. Meanwhile everyone just continues watching TV, listening to tunes and blocking out the madness. I just want to ask one question.
WHO AMONG YOU ARE READY TO GRAB A COUPLE GRENADES, AN ASSAULT RIFLE, SOME K-RATIONS AND THEN JUMP OUT OF A PLANE INTO BAGHDAD AND START KILLING WOMEN, CHILDREN AND OLD MEN?!!?
All you bastards who think it will be over by Christmas need to remember your grade nine history class. I am disgusted at all the diarhea mouth WAR MONGERING jerks spouting support for a war they are not even willing to fight themselves. It won't be the children of politicians being sent to the front you know...it will be me and YOU!
Thats right...it will be YOU that hopefully won't come home in a box.
You do realize that ...don't you? I think you would look great in desert cam. Be careful of friendly fire, it's a real bitch.
PEACE NOW!
