Tim's Tip of the Day
|
 Bush and his corporate backers need to
keep control of the US government and what might win the election would be a nice
new war with Iran. This would explain the insane attack on the religiously significant
Iman Ali Mosque in Najaf. Most of the world's Shite population live in Iran. Being
attacked by Iran would take the heat off the unjustifiable war in Iraq. |
|
Kevin's find of the day
|
 Girl,
16 hanged in public in Iran This story appears
in Iran Focus but with much more detail on the Amnesty International web site. Her crime
was "acts incompatible with chastity" and her judge actually put the noose
around her neck. Neka where the hanging took place is a large seaport and reported
to be a location of Iran's nuclear research and other heavy industry. |

August 20, 2004
by : Mark Weisbrot

a serious threat to the people of this planet.

 Groupthink: a tool to hide
the big lies of sold out Politicians & Co.- Friday
August 13, 2004
by : Mario deSantis
Prince Albert
: How could the most powerful nation on the planet blunder time after time and then

with similar opinions consider a problem they may rely upon formulas and not bother
to look at the facts or relevent information.
