In yet another case of U.S. hypocrisy, Granma International reported that the Miami based terrorist group Alpha 66 provoked aggression against the pacifist group Codepink, which was demanding the arrest of Luis Posada Carriles’s.

Last night I was forwarded an email with a link to short video called A Short Course in Brain Surgery which documents the case of an Ontario man with a brain tumor and the challenges he faced with Canadian medical bureaucracy.

Today Bush held a news conference to urge Congress to pass a surveillance bill that gives immunity to the telecommunications companies. He used his usual fear rhetoric..“Without the cooperation of private companies, we cannot protect our country from terrorist attack”..“that their assistance was legal and vital to national security”.

There are some things common to every state that’s made the transition to fascism. Author Naomi Wolf argues that all of them are present in America today. If you look at history, you can see that there is essentially a blueprint for turning an open society into a dictatorship. That blueprint has been used again and again in more and less bloody, more and less terrifying ways. But it is always effective. It is very difficult and arduous to create and sust
