Troops Out Now Coalition Statement on Withdrawal 
from Iraq On the 3rd Anniversary of the war, let's 
make our message clear:A Call to Unite Around the Demand 
for an:ImmediateCompleteUnconditionalWithdrawal 
of All Occupying Forces from IraqThe best way that the 
antiwar movement can mark the third anniversary of the criminal war and 
occupation of Iraq is to unite around the demand for an immediate, unconditional 
and complete withdrawal of all occupying troops from Iraq. 
Immediate - not in 10 years or in six months--as soon as it 
takes to put soldiers on planes and bring them home. Not waiting for the 
"Iraqi" army to be trained or for the establishment of a government subject to 
U.S. control, or for any other reasons that really only amount to one thing: an 
excuse to justify and extend the occupation.Complete - not in 
phases, not with bases left behind, not redeployment across the border, but a 
complete removal of all occupying forces from all Iraqi 
territory.Unconditional - The Iraqi people have an absolute right 
to govern themselves today, without any conditions imposed on them by Bush and 
Halliburton. The principal argument advanced against the immediate 
and complete withdrawal of all occupation troops is that the occupation must 
continue until Iraq is stabilized in order to establish democracy and prevent a 
civil war. The basic premise underlying this argument is the racist 
assumption that the people of Iraq are somehow inherently incapable of governing 
themselves, and require the paternal tutelage of the U.S. We believe that 
the Iraqi people have the ability and the absolute right to govern themselves, 
without the presence of any occupying forces.However, stabilizing 
Iraq was never an objective of the invasion. Ted Koppel's op-ed in the 
Feb.24 New York Times made this clear. Koppel explained that oil has been the 
driving force of U.S. policy in the Middle East for "more than a half-century," 
and was the motive for the CIA overthrow of Mohammed Mossadegh 53 years 
ago. He concluded, The reason for Americas rapt attention to the 
security of the Persian Gulf is what is has always been. Its about the 
oil. U.S. troops are in Iraq to subjugate the people in order 
to ensure U.S. control of the Iraqi people's oil reserves. If the 
troops are there tomorrow, they will be there for the same reason. If they 
are there in six months or ten years, this will still be their goal. 
Stability and democracy has never been and will never be the goal of this brutal 
occupation. If an armed gang invaded your home, destroyed much of 
the furnishings and tortured and killed members of your family--the idea of 
asking them to hang around with their guns to help fix up the place would be 
absurd. You would want them out immediately--not on a timetable, not when 
they decided that they had trained you in how to put your house in order, not 
when they had finished robbing you--but immediately. We've all 
seen the photos of what the invasion and occupation have done -- the devastation 
wrought by U.S. bombers, the torture and abuse at U.S. prison camps. The 
U.S. announced on March 9 that it would soon be opening a new prison at Camp 
Cropper to take over the work of the torture chambers at Abu Ghraib. This 
new prison camp will join some 38 U.S. 


  
  

  Donate to help 
  mobilize for March 18  19 
  military-run detention centers where Iraqi 
people are routinely abused and held in conditions clearly violating 
international law. There is no justification for these crimes to 
continue one more day.Moreover, the U.S.-led occupation is not 
preventing civil war, it is fomenting it. The violence plaguing Iraq today 
is the direct result of the occupation. There are some strategists in the 
Pentagon and the CIA that even look at civil war as an opportunity to carve up 
the country, based on a divide-and-rule strategy. As Gen. William E. Odom, 
former head of the National Security Agency, said, "We created the civil war 
when we invaded; we can't prevent a civil war by staying." Those 
concerned about the violence in Iraq should demand that the occupying forces, 
who are the cause of that violence, leave today.The problem with phased withdrawal 
and relying on politicians for answersIt is critical that 
the antiwar movement steer clear of taking any position that condones the 
continuation of the criminal invasion and occupation of Iraq for even another 
hour. One reason why antiwar activism is not as consistent and militant 
as it should be, despite the overwhelming opposition to the war, is that it has 
not rallied around a clear and principled position independent of the politics 
of the two

 Kosovska Vitina, 23 January: The Kosovo Police Service [KPS] spokesman
 in Gnjilane, Naser Ibrahimi, told FoNet today that an incident had
 occurred at a playground in the village of Mogila last Sunday [22
 January], which had left a 17-year-old Serb boy injured.
 Ibrahimi said that a conflict between young men of Albanian and Serb
 nationality had occurred at the playground, and that a young Serb man
 had been slightly injured.
 Police have detained five young men, taken their statements and handed
 them over to an investigative judge.
 Serbs living in Mogila have specified that a big group of Albanians
 attacked two young Serb men in the St Theodore church back yard, where
 these had gone to make a phone call, since the signal for mobile
 phones is best there.
 Villagers said that Bojan Djuzic (17) and Dejan Nojkic (18) had been
 beaten up.

 Kosovo Serbs demand return to homes and jobs in troubled province

 Associated Press Worldstream - February 8, 2006 Wednesday 12:40 PM GMT
 Copyright 2006 Associated Press
 Posted for Fair Use only.

 ZVECAN Serbia-Montenegro - Hundreds of Serbs displaced from Kosovo
 since the 1998-1999 war held a protest rally Wednesday demanding a
 safe return to their homes and jobs.
 About 500 protesters gathered in the town of Zvecan, where the
 province's U.N. administrator, Soren Jessen-Petersen, had arrived for
 talks with the leaders of the dwindling Kosovo Serb community.
 Our right to work and live in freedom has been suspended more than
 six years ago, protest leader Dragisa Terencic said, referring to the
 1999 change of authority when NATO intervened in the armed conflict
 between Serbs and ethnic Albanian separatists over Kosovo.
 As NATO bombing forced Serbia to relinquish control over its southern
 province, more than 200,000 Serbs fled while about 100,000 remained,
 living mostly in enclaves surrounded by the ethnic Albanian majority.
 The Wednesday rally gathered representatives of more than 7,000 Serbs
 who worked in Kosovo's coal mines and power plants before the war.
 Jessen-Petersen made no comment as he entered the talks with the Serb
 leaders, but he was expected to address reporters after the meetings.

Peninsula Peace and Justice Center 
3/6/06 - Kurt Vonnegut's Stardust Memory
Monday, March 06 2006 @ 09:06 AM PST (View web-friendly version here) 
http://peaceandjustice.org/article.php?story=20060306090609596
Harvey Wasserman
Columbus Free Press (Ohio) 

On a cold, cloudy night, the lines threaded all the way around the Ohio State 
campus. News that Kurt Vonnegut was speaking at the Ohio Union prompted these 
“apathetic” heartland college students to start lining up in the early 
afternoon. 
About 2,000 got in to the Ohio Union. At least that many more were turned away. 
It 
was the biggest crowd for a speaker here since Michael Moore. 


In an age dominated by hype and sex, neither Moore nor Vonnegut seems a likely 
candidate to rock a campus whose biggest news has been the men’s and women’s 
basketball teams’ joint assault on Big Ten championships. 

But maybe there’s more going on here than Fox wants us to think. 

Vonnegut takes an easy chair across from Prof. Manuel Luis Martinez, a poet and 
teacher of writing. He grabs Martinez and semi-whispers into his ear (and the 
mike) 
“What can I say here?” 

Martinez urges candor. 

“Well,” says Vonnegut, “I just want to say that George W. Bush is the syphilis 
president.” 

The students seem to agree. 

“The only difference between Bush and Hitler,” Vonnegut adds, “is that Hitler 
was 
elected.” 

“You all know, of course, that the election was stolen. Right here.” 

Off to a flying start, Vonnegut explains that this will be his “last speech for 
money.” He can’t remember the first one, but it was on a campus long, long ago, 
and 
this will be the end. 

The students are hushed with the prospect of the final appearance of America’s 
greatest living novelist. Alongside Mark Twain and Ben Franklin, Will Rogers 
and 
Joseph Heller and a very short list of immortal satirists and storytellers, 
there 
stands Kurt Vonnegut, author of SLAUGHTERHOUSE FIVE and SIRENS OF TITAN, CAT’S 
CRADLE and GOD BLESS YOU, MR. ROSEWATER, books these students are studying now, 
as 
did their parents, as will their children and grandchildren, with a deeply felt 
mixture of gratitude and awe. 

Nobody tonight seems to think they were in for a detached, scholarly 
presentation 
from a disengaged academic genius coasting on his incomparable laurels 

“I’m lucky enough to have known a great president, one who really cared about 
ALL 
the people, rich and poor. That was Franklin D. Roosevelt. He was rich himself, 
and 
his class considered him a traitor. 

“We have people in this country who are richer than whole countries,” he says. 
“They 
run everything. 

“We have no Democratic Party. It’s financed by the same millionaires and 
billionaires as the Republicans. 

“So we have no representatives in Washington. Working people have no leverage 
whatsoever. 

“I’m trying to write a novel about the end of the world. But the world is 
really 
ending! It’s becoming more and more uninhabitable because of our addiction to 
oil. 

“Bush used that line recently,” Vonnegut adds. “I should sue him for 
plagiarism.” 

Things have gotten so bad, he says, “people are in revolt again life itself.” 

Our economy has been making money, but “all the money that should have gone 
into 
research and development has gone into executive compensation. If people insist 
on 
living as if there’s no tomorrow, there really won’t be one. 

“As the world is ending, I’m always glad to be entertained for a few moments. 
The 
best way to do that is with music. You should practice once a night. 

“If you want really want to hurt your parents and don’t want to be gay, go into 
the 
arts,” he says. 

Then he breaks into song, doing a passable, tender rendition of “Stardust 
Memories.” 


By this time this packed hall has grown reverential. The sound system

Forthcoming: Two Washington Times Exposes

Could 2006 be the year that sinks the Washington Times? Bill Sammon recently 
jumped 
ship to join the Washington Examiner and the paper continues to hemorrhage 
money. 
Further, two former W. Timers are working on pieces that will open the curtain 
on 
what takes place behind the scenes at the Washington Times, and from my 
conversations with both of them, it sounds as if some damning information could 
potentially emerge as a result.

First there is George Archibald, who was with the Times for 23 years and who 
left in 
December. He is currently in Arizona, working on a book about his time at the 
Times, 
tentatively titled Journalism is War (a phrase used by Managing Editor 
Francis 
Booth Coombs, Archibald's national editor for many years). Archibald has a 
shelf 
full of interesting (some scandalous, some not) stories about the Times but the 
question is how much will actually make it into his book. 

I won't be unkind, Archibald says. It is not a hit job book. But it's clear 
from 
talking with Archibald that he's torn about revealing his full experiences 
while at 
the Times and his desire to be respectful of his former colleagues and his 
place of 
employment for much of his adult life. 

I do not like bigots and there is some bigotry that I will talk about, 
Archibald 
says. Archibald has other stories (which he may or may not include in the book) 
about suspiciously canned stories, tempers, egos, poor leadership from the top 
and 
the Washington Times purported losses of $2.5 billion over the years.

His book has already caused some tension at W. Times HQ. Coombs has ordered 
employees not to speak with Archibald, claiming that, in fact, Archibald's book 
is a 
hit job.

It is Archibald's belief that many seasoned and veteran reporters at the Times 
have 
left the paper or been pushed out because of Coombs ill-tempered 
micro-management 
of reporters and repeated changes to their copy without consultation with the 
reporters, often for apparent ideological, political or other reasons at the 
behest 
of senior editors. 

Some also have told me reporters were pushed out because Coombs did not 
believe 
they were sufficiently toeing his line or sufficiently loyal to the way he 
wanted 
them to report their beat and write their stories -- or because they were 
senior 
with high-enough salaries that he could get rid of them and hire two younger 
hungry reporters for their cost who would be his loyalists -- that he is 
remaking 
the newsroom for the time he might become editor-in-chief after Wes Pruden 
retires 
in a year or so.

(But another W. Timer, however, told us that Coombs' ascendancy is not a 
foregone 
conclusion, even though Pruden has said it publicly in a TV interview. The 
owners 
were not happy with Pruden's presumption and took him to the woodshed over that 
and 
he apologized to the company president, Douglas Joo. Tony Blankley, the 
editorial 
page editor is definitely a candidate for the editor-in-chief position when Wes 
retires and Coombs is not a shoo-in by any means.)

Still, Archibald says that his book won't be done in a whining, complaining 
way...There are no sour grapes.

UPDATE: Coombs wrote in to us to explain his side: Just for the record, I 
have not 
ordered employees of The Washington Times newsroom not to speak to George 
Archibald. 
He has repeated that charge in numerous e-mails to me, and it is simply not 
true. I 
presume George also told you that he asked me to rehire him several months ago, 
so 
one gathers his employment here was not an altogether unpleasant experience.

Then there is Robert Redding Jr., who left the paper this year. His

By setting up a toothless review process for warrantless wiretaps of Americans, 
the Republican-controlled Congress is handing George W. Bush another major 
victory in his consolidation of virtually unlimited executive power.

The plan -- promoted by moderate Republican senators -- may even allow for 
more wiretapping by broadening the scope to any American deemed to be working 
in support of a terrorist group. Given Bush's view that you are either with 
us or with the terrorists, that could cover almost any administration critic.

As part of this deal, Congress also is moving to scuttle any investigation into 
the legality of Bush's wiretapping in this latest case of oversight by 
capitulation.

[CTRL] Boston clergy lawsuits, Parliamentarians Show Prostitution the Red Card

2006-03-10 Thread Smart News
-Caveat Lector-









AP Newsbreak: Plaintiffs in clergy lawsuits agree to settle Boston "All 88 people who were offered arbitration to settle clergy sex abuse claims for between $5,000 and $200,000 have agreed to the settlement deal, the Archdiocese of Boston said Thursday. Arbitration hearings in the cases are scheduled to begin next week and run through April. Kelly Lynch, a spokeswoman for the archdiocese, said the 88 people were offered the chance to participate in a first round of arbitration. About 100 additional lawsuits are still pending, and the archdiocese may offer a second round of arbitration to some of those plaintiffs, Lynch said." http://www.wfsb.com/global/story.asp?s=4609139ClientType=Printable

INT'L WOMEN'S DAY: Parliamentarians Show Prostitution the Red Card Stefania Bianchi Brussels, 3/8/06 (IPS) - The European Union marked International Women's Day Wednesday by launching a campaign against sexual exploitation of women during big sporting events. "European parliamentarians are calling on the European Commission, the European Union (EU) executive, to exert pressure on European governments to tighten border controls and step up efforts to identify women and children being moved illegally through EU countries to Germany during this summer's football World Cup.They say every year around 100,000 women become victims of human trafficking in Europe, and fear that several thousand girls and women will be sexually exploited during the competition. The European lawmakers say most of the women engaged in the business are victims of organised crime, lured by false promises of legal work abroad, and then forced to sell their bodies."We have a duty to shout loud, expose the disgrace of trafficking, and put the authorities under such pressure that they cannot turn a blind eye to it. Between 600,000 and 800,000 women and children are trafficked through international borders each year," she said (Mary Honeyball)." http://www.ipsnews.net/interna.asp?idnews=32425
