At least 33 dead in rampage on Virginia campus
15 others at Virginia Tech wounded in worst mass shooting in U.S. history
Witnesses described him as a man in his 20s, wearing a maroon cap and
a black leather jacket. A spokesman for the FBI in Washington said
there was no immediate evidence to suggest that the incident was a
terrorist attack, "but all avenues will be explored."
Perkins said the gunman never said a word. "He didn't say, 'Get
down.' He didn't say anything." He just started shooting."
Until Monday, the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history was in
Killeen, Texas, in 1991, when George Hennard plowed his pickup truck
into a Luby's Cafeteria and shot 23 people to death, then himself.
The deadliest previous campus shooting in U.S. history took place in
1966 at the University of Texas, where Charles Whitman climbed to the
28th-floor observation deck of a clock tower and opened fire. He
killed 16 people before he was gunned down by police.

Torture, Secrecy, and the Bush Administration
We have a duty to posterity, and that is to bear witness to these
events. We must document them carefully. We must act to avoid the
destruction of valuable evidence-and recognize, as we have already
seen, that it is in the character of those who commit crimes to
destroy the evidence of their misdeeds. In this way we lay the path
for the justice which will in good time be meted out to those who
betrayed a nation's trust.

Bush administration pushes for expansion and deepening of police state
The George W. Bush administration seized the White House in 2000 by
way of an openly stolen election, then cemented its criminal power
into place with the unprecedented 9/11 mass murder, and its two
resulting abominations: the fabricated "war on terrorism" (the
pretext for endless global war), and the USAPATRIOT Act (the
full-scale destruction of the Constitution, and the militarization of
the US homeland).
The deepening of the war and security state continues unabated and
relatively unopposed, in spite of meager posturing of (largely
complicit) congressional Democrats. Nothing has been done to stop,
reverse or undo the Bush administration's boundless criminality, its
wide open corruption, or the absolute and systematic rape of law
itself. Few if any of Bush's criminals have been brought to justice.

About anti-Semitism
A letter -from the heart- to my Jewish friends :
People talk with liberty about Muslim extremists, and Christian
fundamentalists; but they stop short of uttering the forbidden word
"Jewish extremists"

San Diego: Fascist Raids and Vigilantes Terrorize Immigrant Communities
Eight men in an unmarked white suburban pull up to a home in Vista,
San Diego. They knock on the door, looking for a Mexican woman who
has been ordered deported. The men are armed Immigration Customs
Enforcement (ICE) agents. They search each room in the house and
round up the family who lives there and question them in their living
room. The woman ICE is looking for doesn't live there, but they
detain two men, including the father of a 3-month-old and an
8-year-old daughter in the house. It's 5 a.m. and the men, still in
their pajamas, are handcuffed and driven away in a van.

Cheney's Nemesis
"We know from the Pentagon Papers -- and to me they were the most
important documents ever written -- that from 1963 on, Kennedy and
Johnson and Nixon lied to us systematically about the war. I remember
how shocked I was when I read them. So . . . duh! Nothing's changed.
They've just gotten better at dealing with the press. Nothing's
changed at all."
