TERROR IN TINY TOWN
In the War on Terror, we are all on the front lines. Now Southold has apparently been targeted by Al Qaeda. I'm not surprised. Southold, if you look at a map, is situated at the ass end of nowhere. We are known for our Strawberry Festival and fire truck parade. According to the Census, this tiny...

WHAT'S THE CONNECTION BETWEEN IRAQ & NEW ORLEANS?
Scoop wrote an excellent and outraged blog here about the Katrina disaster in the Gulf states, and has attracted some attention from Bushites. Remarkably, they're trying to lay the blame for this unprecedented disaster at the door of some long-dead Democratic presidents. Well, I got news for them....

Mencken, Baltimore Sun A reader very recently acquainted me with the above H.L. Mencken quote. And how very prophetic an observation...

NEARLY 2,000 AMERICANS HAVE DIED - FOR A THEOCRACY!!!
Ever since I started this blog, Bushites have been attacking me and my short-sightedness, saying that unless we protect Iraq from "Islamicists", it's a slippery slope right down to the good ol' US of A falling under Islamic law. Now I've always thought that line of reasoning was flawed beyond...

The American media was supposedly set up to look after the interests of the governed, while keeping a sharp eye on the activities of the government. As Justice Black once said so succinctly, ""In the First Amendment, the Founding Fathers gave the free press the protection it must have to fulfill its...

Civilian Dead Nearly 6x Greater Than Under Saddam - Yet They Don't Exist!!
The Baghdad morgue is a fearful place of heat and stench and mourning, the cries of relatives echoing down the narrow, foetid laneway behind the pale-yellow brick medical centre where the authorities keep their computerised records. So many corpses are being brought to the mortuary that human...

A State Execution on the Underground
Last month, at the height of the police hunt for terrorists in London, following the London Underground and bus bombings, a Brazilian man, Jean Charles de Menezes, was shot dead by armed police. It quickly turned out that he was completely innocent. Very quickly, the police-state apologists leapt to...

One Mother's Stand - The Camp Casey Vigil
Iraq Veteran Aidan Delgado opened the vigil with a heartfelt message: "In victory or defeat the price is the same... A price that can not be measured in dollars or votes but can only be measured in pain... We must make sure it is never paid again until all other means have failed." In the foreground...

It is Not Only Iraq That is Occupied. America is Too.
It has quickly become clear that Iraq is not a liberated country, but an occupied country. We became familiar with that term during the second world war. We talked of German-occupied France, German-occupied Europe. And after the war we spoke of Soviet-occupied Hungary, Czechoslovakia, eastern...

WHY THE WAR ON TERROR IS DOOMED TO FAIL
I wrote a couple of posts back about America the teenager - stomping about the place, being hormonal and generally being a nuisance. Well, there's another teenage trait that America has, too - thinking s/he's always right, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary from those who are older, wiser...
