So What Are You Doing To Stop This War?
Mood:  sharp
Now Playing: TELL ME WHAT WHAT YOUR DOING TO BRING PEACE - NOT WAR?
Topic: WAR

I am really curious to hear from people

 

 (my fellow Z3 Readers, Close Friends, and Family)

 

What "YOU" are doing to end this fricken war?

 

Are you doing anti war activism?

Are you maybe writing your Senators and Representative's?

How about contacting the media, the white house or talk radio?

How about blogging, videotaping, protesting, civil non-violent disobedience?

How about singing for peace, praying for peace, walking for peace?

I feel so alone from my close friends and family on this subject>

Sure there is comrades who are "peacemakers" that I see regularly! But where is my family and my close friends? Don't they want Peace?

So I am asking "what are you doing to promote peace in the world?"

Contact me at:  iam@joe-anybody.com  and please tell me.

Give me some encouragement, I am up till 3am almost every-night working on Peace in the world. I spend "EVERY WAKING MOMENT PROJECTING PEACE 24 hours-a-day"

I am wanting my close Friends and family to support my Peacemaker Mission. Can you help a tired old hippie out? huh?  Can you reach out to my hand in peace?

I am upfront and curious ..... at least tell me something you are doing to help get this war to end!

Or.....maybe your too busy, or you support war and killing

 ..... I dont understand, but I see why you are then, anti-peace!

MAY 1 2007 - SEE YOU IN THE STREETS
Mood:  loud
Now Playing: CIVIL RIGHT HUMAN RIGHT - YOUR DAMN RIGHT!
Topic: IMMIGRATION

 

Take to

 

The Streets

 

 

May 1st 2007

 

 

 

In support of immigrant rights: 

 

 

No shopping, no work, no school!

Demand an end to

 

"Deportations & raids"


Fight for equal rights for

 

all workers,

 

U.S. and foreign born!


Across the country on Tuesday, May 1st 2007, tens of thousands of workers are expected to take to the streets once again to say no to anti-immigrant, anti-worker policies. 

The demonstrations are a continuation of last year’s historic marches of undocumented and documented immigrants as well as their supporters against the highly repressive and punitive Sensenbrenner legislation that criminalized workers.

The current raids and deportations in cities across the country carried out by ICE (Immigration & Customs Enforcement) are just as deplorable and unacceptable.

By singling out Latinos, Asians, Muslims, Caribbeans, and Africans they are thoroughly racist. Not only are they meant to warn immigrants that they better not fight against super-exploitation, it is a message to all working people in this country. As the economic crisis deepens workers—whether they are foreign or U.S. born—are being warned that they had better accept these conditions. The raids and the anti-immigrant climate are designed to bust unions as well as to foster divisions among U.S. and foreign born workers.

But workers are fighting back. Across the country, the most exploited and poorest workers are standing together. Day laborers, for example are standing up to racist attacks whether they emanate from goons or from local city or state officials.

Others are standing up as well. Several unions such as the International Longshore Workers Union, Local 10 and the San Francisco Labor Council are passing resolutions in favor of May 1st and mobilizing to get people out on May Day. In
New York , a UFCW local pushed the May 1st event at a labor event demanding justice for Smithfield workers in Tar Heel, North Carolina .

The International Action Center , a member of the
New York May 1st Coalition and the National Movement for Worker and Immigrant Rights, is actively supporting these efforts in every way possible. We urge you to do the same!


Here is how you can help:

 

         ((1)) Endorse the May 1st action in your city and nationally.

Fake Maritime Boundaries (Iranian Waters)
Mood:  accident prone
Now Playing: FALSE INFORMATION and LIES = Pretext for war?
Topic: WAR

  MY FELLOW

 

Z3 READERS

 

 

THIS IS

 

IMPORTANT

 

BE AWARE OF THE LIES

BE AWARE OF THE BULLSHIT

OVER THIS IRANIAN WATERS BOUNDRY ISSUE

************************************

http://www.craigmurray.co.uk/archives/2007/03/fake_maritime_b.html

March 28, 2007

Fake Maritime Boundaries


The British Government has published a map showing the coordinates of the incident, well within an Iran/Iraq maritime border. The mainstream media and even the blogosphere has bought this hook, line and sinker.

But there are two colossal problems.

A) The Iran/Iraq maritime boundary shown on the British government map does not exist. It has been drawn up by the British Government. Only Iraq and Iran can agree their bilateral boundary, and they never have done this in the Gulf, only inside the Shatt because there it is the land border too. This published boundary is a fake with no legal force.

B) Accepting the British coordinates for the position of both HMS Cornwall and the incident, both were closer to Iranian land than Iraqi land. Go on, print out the map and measure it. Which underlines the point that the British produced border is not a reliable one.

None of which changes the fact that the Iranians, having made their point, should have handed back the captives immediately. I pray they do so before this thing spirals out of control. But by producing a fake map of the Iran/Iraq boundary, notably unfavourable to Iran, we can only harden the Iranian position.

My fellow Z3 Readers, be sure to read the comments on this link at the original post on Greg Murray's blog, they are worth reading. Thanks!

Senator Smiths Office - and no corporate media?
Mood:  irritated
Now Playing: Peacemakers arrested for trying to stop the war
Topic: PROTEST!
2 More Peacemakers Arrested 29.Mar.2007 23:18

 2 LADIES WERE ARRESTED TODAY AT THE SENATORS OFFICE

A Peaceful Non Violent Demonstration with a message of "No More War Funding"

It happened this afternoon, and a small group from  http://www.defundthewar.com/
was there to urge Sen. Smith to vote against all funding for the War in Iraq.
The letter was read to the Senators two reps who came down to get the petition signatures and (probably to diffuse any hoopla over any arrest at the Senators office Private-Property-Residence)

After delivering a petition list of citizens against funding this war, which was about as long as 1/2 of a basketball court, the two women tried to enter building lower lobby doors and were blocked by the nice security man and arrested by portland police, they were then walked two blocks to the Justice Center in handcuffs. I wish drivers-going-by knew what & who these brave peacemakers who looked like average cuffed criminals were and why they were walking handcuffed down the street.... to a jail cell of cold IRON and cement

...nice place for "peace makers" it 'hones their spirit.'


These Portland citizens are in jail tonight for simply promoting PEACE

By their actions they were doing one thing "They are - trying to end this war"

A congressman's office on "private property"?
Well how convenient!

There was no "Corporate Media"?
Well how convenient!

That is why I made sure I was there on my lunch hour with plenty of tape
As I filmed these dedicated people, I wonder what "each" and "every" one of us is doing for their part to "help end this war?"
Please ask yourself that question and take some action if your not already.
I am just trying to encourage not be bossy


Our officials need to see more people become active - let the world know - You don't have to get arrested but you do need to speak up LOUD and clear
"WE DON'T WANT WAR NO MORE"

There has to be the voices that say "STOP THE WAR - NOW!"

.......because without those voices what is left ....?

we need the voices...we need your voices!

we all NEED to rise up and say like we heard today ...

"NO MORE

Mood:  not sure
Now Playing: Corn Shortage? Farmers for food or fuel or ....both?
Topic: ENVIRONMENTAL

 Seems to be some questions on availability

Here is the article on Cnet:

There are 114 ethanol distilleries in operation across the country which produce ethanol from corn. Production is projected to exceed 6 billion gallons this year compared with 4.89 billion gallons in 2006, and some 3 billion gallons in capacity will be added in 2007, the group said.

U.S. farmers plan to cash in on the fuel ethanol boom by planting the largest area of corn in 63 years, potentially yielding a record crop and calming fears that renewable fuels will steal grain needed for food and feed, the federal government said Friday

Time Caught in Act of

Dumbing Down the News for

US Readers


03/27/07 5:14 PM



Blogger Paul Schmelzer has been busy raising questions about some of the nation's widely read periodicals when it comes to the selection of their cover stories—namely the difference between Time's April 2 U.S. and International editions. While the international cover features a story about Pakistani religious extremists filtering across the border of Afghanistan "with the intention of imposing their strict interpretation of Islam on a population unable to fight back," the US edition of the publication features the story, "The Case for Teaching the Bible." Schmelzer wonders why Time isn't giving the U.S. the same edition that the rest of the world is seeing on newsstands. The choice can't only be about marketing and keeping newsstand sales up in the U.S. Somethings a little fishy here.

This isn't the first time that a major US news weekly has pulled this trick of presenting the news differently to US readers than it does to the rest of the world. Last September, Newsweek gave international readers a cover story about the Taliban and US readers a cover featuring photographer Annie Leibovitz, in essence replacing with a hard-hitting news story of international importance with a much lighter celebrity piece. In the case of both the Time and the Newsweek cover story cover-ups, the stories were related to coverage of the Taliban. Is marketing getting in the way of the serious news in the U.S.? Or is the media afraid to tell Americans what they don't want to hear? Only Time can tell.

Dad says: My son pleaded guilty - so he could go home
Mood:  don't ask
Now Playing: USA - GITMO ruins lives and forces confession, what a Hell Hole!
Topic: TORTURE


Dad says: Gitmo prisoner

 

wants to go home

 

I copied this from here: http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/ap/world/4666536.html

David Hicks, who was accused of supporting al-Qaida and the Taliban during the U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan in late 2001, entered the plea Monday in a surprise development seen as a bid to end his five-year imprisonment at the U.S. naval base in southeast Cuba.

The United States has agreed to allow Hicks to serve any sentence in Australia, and the U.S. military said a conviction on his charge of providing material support for terrorism could allow him to return home by the end of the year.

Hicks' father, Terry Hicks, told Australian Broadcasting Corp. radio on Tuesday that he believed his son pleaded guilty as part of a bargain with prosecutors that would get him out of Guantanamo: "It's a way to get home, and he's told us he just wants to get home."

The guilty plea came at the opening session of a new military tribunal signed into law in October by President Bush after the Supreme Court struck down the previous system.

Critics of the

 

commissions said the

 

 plea reflected Hicks' 

 

despair over his

 

prospects for justice

 

from Guantanamo

courts

 

"He and his attorneys knew he could not receive a fair trial, so Hicks pleaded guilty," said Marine Lt. Col. Colby Vokey, the lawyer for Omar Khadr, a Canadian detainee who is expected to face charges before the commission.

Hicks, a 31-year-old Muslim convert, pleaded guilty to one charge of providing support to a terror organization involved in hostilities against the United States. But he denied a second allegation of supporting terrorism.

He allegedly attended terrorist training camps in Afghanistan and reported to an al-Qaida commander after the Sept. 11 attacks, but he was not accused of firing a shot against U.S. or coalition forces. He was captured in December 2001 and was one of the first men taken to Guantanamo a month later.

Hicks, who lives at a maximum-security facility at Guantanamo, has been transferred to a complex with special meeting rooms to make it easier to consult with his lawyers.

At a private conference Tuesday, the defense and prosecution were expected to discuss details of the guilty plea before presenting it to the military judge, Marine Corps Col. Ralph Kohlmann, said Pentagon spokesman Bryan Whitman. Kohlmann was expected to make the determination this week.

"Under commission rules the military judge must be satisfied that Hicks' guilty plea is voluntary and otherwise lawful," Whitman said.

Members of a military tribunal convened for Hicks' case are expected to travel to Guantanamo this week to approve any sentence. Defense attorneys said a gag order by the military judge prevented them from discussing details of the plea until a sentence is announced.

Hicks is the only detainee charged so far by the reconstituted tribunal system. The military says as many as 80 of the 385 men held at Guantanamo will likely face prosecution.

A challenge of the new system is pending before the Supreme Court. Lawyers for detainees have asked the high court to step in again and guarantee that the prisoners can challenge their confinement in U.S. courts.
