Casto Hospitalized; Resigns; Hands Power to Brother
Laters for you bitch! Update: D’oh! The Times says it’s just temporary. They should know. Update2: A bit about his brother from the AP: Raul, a political hardliner, belonged to a Communist youth group even before the revolution. The elder Castro didn’t publicly embrace socialism until 1961. But on the economic front, he showed signs [...]
Freedom to Fascism: I Want My Fiat Money Back
Attention: Do Not Waste Your Hard-Earned $8.00 on this piece of crap. I knew it when I saw the trailer claiming the Fed was private. Great. Then I saw that my man Dr. Ron Paul is in it, as well as personal hero G. Edward Griffin and friend James Bovard. My old friend from high-school [...]
Israeli Strike Kills more than 60, Mostly Children
At least 56 people [CNN now saying 60], more than half children, were killed Sunday in an Israeli airstrike that crushed a building, the deadliest attack of the campaign against Hezbollah. U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice decided to return early to Washington with her diplomatic mission derailed after Lebanese leaders told her not to [...]
Operation Shell Game
U.S. TO MOVE TROOPS FROM SOUTHERN IRAQ TO NORTH, AND FROM NORTHERN IRAQ TO SOUTH Andy Borowitz: In a bold attempt to confuse Iraqi insurgents, the U.S. will move 10,000 troops from southern Iraq to the north, and will then move 10,000 other troops from northern Iraq to the south, the Army chief of staff [...]
Stickers for Sale
Do you hate the state? … Do you wish that all those idiots in traffic hated the state like you so that you and your little children could be free? … Well now, there’s finally a way for you do what you always dreamed of: Set an example for those idiots to follow! Buy some [...]
9/11 Kookery on C-SPAN
I am sad to say, I’ve not seen or heard anything convincing from any of these idiots. I still believe that Cheney and Rumsfeld knew, but there’s no proof. Prof. Jones claims that he’s got the molecular evidence, but doesn’t present it. It would be okay, I suppose if the American public believed these assholes, [...]
Collectivism and Murder
Some guy goes into a Jewish business in Seattle, and murders one innocent woman and wounds five others. What’s his excuse? He’s “mad at Israel.” Well, I have some news for you genius: None of those six people were “Israel.” Nor all of them in one room together. In fact, there is no such thing [...]
Video shows Ghraib-like torture by sheriffs lead to man’s death, say groups, family
Raw Story: On Feb. 6, 2006, Jessie Lee Williams, Jr., a 40-year-old black man in a Southern Mississippi jail, was allegedly hooded and hog-tied by police, beaten about the head and testicles and ultimately died from blunt injuries to the head. The coroner determined the death was a homicide. The local sheriff indicated law enforcement [...]
Who attacked who first?
Last week, Antiwar.com ran a story by Joshua Frank – of hate Hillary from the Left fame – questioning whether the story was true that Hezbollah had crossed the border to capture the two Israelis, or if, in fact, the Israelis had crossed the line first. Now AWC regular contributer, Ran HaCohen, has set the [...]
Hezbollah Hiding Within the Civilian Population?
What a load of, uh, untruths. “So the analysts talking on cable news about Hezbollah “hiding within the civilian population” clearly have spent little time if any in the south Lebanon war zone and don’t know what they’re talking about. Hezbollah doesn’t trust the civilian population and has worked very hard to evacuate as much [...]
William S. Lind on the “New Middle East.”
“The goal of Islamic fourth generation forces is the destruction of most, if not all, Arab state governments, so Hezbollah is winning strategically as well. One can almost watch the legitimacy drain away from the region’s decrepit states, with incalculable consequences for American interests. “Not that Washington is doing anything to protect those interests. On [...]
“Quick, change the law so we can’t be convicted of War Crimes.”
Jim Bovard explains, on the Antiwar.com blog (where we are very happy to have him), that once upon a time, the US Congress criminalized violations of the Geneva Conventions on how to make war “properly.” (It is shameful to all adult Americans that we would ever need to rely on foreign treaties to tell us [...]
