So, the Drudge Report is linking to an Evening Standard story about an ancient picture of Tony Blair making an "obscene gesture." Maybe he's pretending to grab his "Wee Prime Minister." But maybe, just maybe, he's playing that sadistic game that junior-high boys tend to play. You know, the one where I make a circle with my thumb and forefinger below my waist, and if you look at it I get to punch you twice in the shoulder. Anyone? Anyone?

Iran: The Left Opposition Speaks
An Interview with Bina Darabzand of Salam Democrat
Against Bush, Against Ahmadinejad, For Oaxaca
by Bill Weinberg, WW4 REPORT
On December 12, 2006, as the Holocaust revisionism conference called by President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad opened in Tehran, small but angry groups of students held protests—against both the conference and Ahmadinejad, burning his picture and chanting "down with the dictator." Scores of students marched at the Amir Kabir University of Technology (formerly Tehran Polytechnic), Tehran University and Sanandaj University in Kordistan province.
Among the organizers of the protests was Bina Darabzand, a leftist thinker and longtime veteran of Iran's student movement. Born into what he calls a "left-oriented political family" in Tehran in 1957, Darabzand was involved in protest movements against the Shah from his youth. In 1978, he returned home from studies in the US and UK—where he was a representative abroad of the Confederation of Iranian Students—to participate in the Iranian revolution. After Ayatollah Khomeini took power, he was forced into exile, but returned to Iran again in 1986, and has since been working to build a radical left opposition. Since 1997, when the election of President Mohammad Khatami brought a supposedly more open atmosphere, he has been arrested four times—most recently in July 2004, when he was imprisoned for two years on fabricated charges of slandering governmental officials and organizing underground cells.
By the time of his release six months ago, the hard-liner Ahmadinejad was in power for just over a year. But Darabzand has immediately resumed his political activities, creating the website Salam Democrat as a voice for radical left ideas and news from movements in the outside world in Farsi. It has recently launched a page with updates on the struggle in Oaxaca, Mexico.
On February 13, Bina Darabzand spoke by telephone from Tehran with WW4 REPORT Editor Bill Weinberg over the airwaves of New York's WBAI Radio.

BW: I assume you are aware of the Zapatista movement in Chiapas.
BD: If course. We think they have grown to be a very deep-rooted and effective force in Mexican politics. In their "Other Campaign," they went all across the Mexican country trying to identify the different movements they can unite with, and this was very effective. We believe they had a lot to do with propagating the assembly model throughout Mexico.
Of course, it comes from the Indian culture, and they might think that they are actually trying to go back to the origins of their culture. However, this is the same thing that landlords of the 13th and 14th century in England thought—that they were trying to go back to the old feudal laws. But in actuality, they were pushing capitalism and the power of the bourgeoisie. Similarly, the indigenous people in Mexico—the Zapatistas and Oaxacans and the rest of them—they might think they are going back to their cultural origins through these assemblies, but in actuality they are moving towards socialism.
BW: I think they understand that it is actually a confluence of the two tendencies.
BD: That is perfect! Because what is lacking in all the world is the self-consciousness of the people, knowing what power they have and knowing that they can rule themselves—this is the main issue of the left all around the world. To bring this self-confidence and self-realization within the people.

At least 10 anti-fence activists wounded in Bil'in demonstration
By Haaretz Service
At least 10 activists were wounded on Friday in clashes with security forces at the weekly protest against the separation fence in the West Bank village of Bil'in.
Israel Defense Forces soldiers fired rubber-tipped bullets at protesters who hurled stones at them. Protesters said soldiers also targeted youths who did not take part in the violent exchange.
Meanwhile, dozens of Palestinian youths clashed with IDF soldiers near the Qalandiyah Refugee Camp roadblock just north of Jerusalem.

Trouble and bad luck liked my company. Took me to California, (well at least where it crossed 26th Street).
I didn’t mean nobody no harm. County jail worse than Parchment Farm.

Back in Mississippi-hey.
I made a record and even got on the radio. I would’ve kept making music but it only kept me poor.
Well now I play in the church once in awhile. That kind of music never goes out of style.
Well I learned it as a child
Back in Mississippi-hey.
Steel plants and factories broke my back. But they paid good wages, else we went on strike. Well the unions was the first to go. Jobs today, well it pays so low.
Well I hear there’s work down home
Back in Mississippi-hey.
And I believe I’ve stayed up north here long enough. Have had some good times but mostly things been rough.
Well Chicago’s so goddamn cold. Chilled my natural body, almost took my soul.
I’ll spend the rest of my days down home
Back in Mississippi-hey.
That’s where I’ll be found. Where the people close to the ground.
Back in Mississippi-hey.
i'm half-way through my major sleep and

NY Times' Nagourney compares hatemonger Coulter to Sen. Clinton
http://mediamatters.org/items/200703030006
In a belated report on right-wing pundit Ann Coulter's reference to former Sen. John Edwards (D-NC) as a "faggot," New York Times reporter Adam Nagourney purported to explain a denunciation of Coulter's remark by Edwards, as though it needed explanation. Nagourney wrote:
The question of whether the remark was offensive enough aside, the Edwards campaign saw an opportunity in the remarks of a woman who is about as popular in liberal Democratic circles as [Sen.] Hillary Rodham Clinton [D-NY] is in Republican circles (not very). Mr. [David] Bonior [Edwards' campaign manager] sent an e-mail to supporters last night urging them to make contributions to the Edwards campaign.
Hillary Rodham Clinton? What did she do to deserve a comparison to Coulter? Whether or not Coulter is "[un]popular in liberal Democratic circles," the reasons for liberals' denunciations of her could not be more different from the reasons that Republicans might dislike -- and apparently fear -- Clinton. Last we checked, Clinton had not referred to anyone as a "faggot" or advocated the assassination of anyone. Nor has she, to our knowledge, lamented that Timothy McVeigh did not blow up a news organization.
heh.
that anonymous is apparently a fan of Groucho's m.o., "I wouldn't want to be a member of any club who would have me as a member."
March 3-4, 2007 -- A Texas billionaire, who has given generously to Republicans and Democrats alike, is, according to our sources in the Caribbean twin island nation of Antigua and Barbuda, using his vast wealth to practically take over the independent nation. The individual in question is Sir R. Allen Stanford, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Houston-based Stanford Financial Group.
http://www.waynemadsenreport.com/
Stanford acquired over 120 acres of prime land from the previous Antigua and Barbuda government of Prime Minister Lester Bird. Since Bird's Antigua Labour Party government was ejected from office by the United Progressive Party of current Prime Minister Baldwin Spencer, Stanford, who reportedly gave Bird a half million dollars in bribes, has been attacking Spencer, even his his home constituency. For an American citizen to inject himself in the affairs of a sovereign nation is a throwback to the banana and gunboat diplomacy of the United States in the 1920s and 30s.
Notably, under Bird, Antigua and Barbuda became a domain for Russian-Israeli mafia money laundering and dodgy Internet casino gambling.
Stanford has purchased all the land around V C Bird International Airport, including the airport parking lot. The ownership of Stanford's airline company, Caribbean Star and Caribbean Sun Airlines, is evenly split between him and the cash-strapped Leeward Islands Air Transport (LIAT). It is expected that Stanford will soon try to buy the LIAT shares and become sole owner of the airline.
Stanford has also banned his employees from belonging to unions. He claims he pays them enough without the need for union membership. Antiguan and Barbudan commentators have said that Stanford expects the people of the islands to just sing their calypso songs and dance their jigs like good little blacks and leave the financial decisions to him and his business colleagues.
With such an anti-union, ultra-capitalist marauder staking ownership of an Afro-Caribbean independent nation, it is noteworthy to note the Democrats and Democratic organizations to which Stanford has contributed: the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee/non-Federal Unicorp Association, former Texas Rep. Martin Frost's Lone Star Fund PAC, Texas Sen. John Cornyn, Washington Sen. Patty Murray, Texas Rep. Charlie Gonzalez (shame on him -- his father, the late House Banking Committee Chairman Henry Gonzalez strongly criticized the covert off-shore financial activities of people like Stanford), New York House candidate Dan Maffei, former Texas Rep. Max Sandlin, Montana Sen. Max Baucus, Washington Sen. Maria Cantwell, Rhode Island Sen. Jack Reed, former Missouri Sen. Jean Carnahan, New York Sen. Charles Schumer, Florida Sen. Bill Nelson, former Texas Rep. Martin Frost, Texas House candidate Ken Bentsen.
It is no surprise that someone like Stanford has donated generously to the GOP, a racist and anti-union party. Republicans who have benefited from Stanford's largesse include Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison's KPAC, Utah Sen. Orrin Hatch, Alabama Sen. Richard Shelby, former Texas Sen. Phil Gramm, former Ohio Rep. Bob Ney (now in federal prison), National Republican Congressional Committee, and Tom Delay's Americans for a Republican Majority (ARMPAC).
March 3-4, 2007 -- Our March 1 report on the 1975 SS Mayaguez incident in Cambodia elicited a response from a U.S. Navy veteran familiar with details of the U.S. Marine and Navy attack on Cambodia following the seizure of the Mayaguez, a purported U.S. spy ship operating within Cambodian territorial waters. Although the Gerald Ford administration claimed 41 Marines died in the "rescue" mission for the Mayaguez, our Navy source reports that U.S. Navy corpsmen who attended to the dead and wounded reported at the time that 120 U.S. servicemen died in the attack. The next-of-kin were told that their sons were one of the brave KIAs (killed in action) who gave up their lives to save the crew of the Mayaguez. Corpsmen who knew the extent of the U.S. deaths in the Mayaguez were told to keep their mouths shut or face courts-martial.
http://www.waynemadsenreport.com/
i'm sure Stanford would say
"it's just 'bidness'."
The burden of history is on the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps to refute charges that they lied about the number of deaths in Cambodia. Consider the following facts: the attack of Cambodia (and cover-up of the true casualty figures) were ordered by the three principal Ford administration officials involved -- Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, White House Chief of Staff Dick Cheney, and Secretary of State Henry Kissinger. All three have been involved in similar lies and cover-ups involving Iraq and the so-called "War on Terror."

Gonzales is ‘too busy.’ From Bob Novak’s column today: “Attorney General Alberto Gonzales has indicated he is too busy to answer letters from Democratic congressional leaders about his firing seven U.S. attorneys involved in probes of public corruption, though a lower-level Justice Department official rejected their proposals.”

New Mexico Republican bigwig on Rep. Heather Wilson (R), the member of Congress at the center of the canned US attorneys scandal. From the Albuquerque Tribune ...
"If I was Heather Wilson, I'd be thinking about taking a long trip to Baghdad, where the conditions are a little more subdued," said former Gov. Dave Cargo.
Cargo, a Republican, was only half-joking.
Claims that Wilson and Domenici pressured Iglesias to bring indictments in a politically charged corruption investigation of local Democrats ahead of last year's election - when Wilson was locked in a battle for her political life - are "terribly serious," Cargo said.
"This has the potential to really cripple the (state) Republican Party," he said. "And the way Heather and Pete are handling it, by essentially taking the Fifth (Amendment), isn't helping them."
Locked in a battle for her political life is right. But I'm not sure how many people outside of New Mexico get that yet.

They're calling it the Beer Barrel Main Event Charity Burger, and the 120,000-calorie entree features an 80-pound ground beef patty. It also has a pound each of lettuce, ketchup, relish, mustard and mayonnaise, 160 slices of cheese, up to five onions and 12 tomatoes.

Iran's Ahmadinejad visits Saudi amid regional crises by Lydia Georgi
Sat Mar 3, 5:53 PM ET
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad left Saudi Arabia late Saturday after talks with King Abdullah which had been expected to focus on the sectarian bloodshed in Iraq, the crisis in Lebanon and Tehran's nuclear row with the West.
Saudi officials said Ahmadinejad departed after spending some seven hours in the kingdom, but did not give details about the talks, which lasted around two hours.
The Saudi monarch hosted a dinner for the Iranian leader, whom he greeted earlier at an airbase in Riyadh in a red-carpet but brief ceremony which underlined the working nature of the visit.
Ahmadinejad, who previously saw the king at an Islamic summit in Mecca in December 2005, said before leaving Tehran that he would discuss how Iran and the kingdom could work together to reduce tensions in the Middle East.
"We will discuss with King Abdullah the joint work that we have to carry out in the Islamic world and the region," he told reporters.
"Iran and Saudi Arabia are two significant countries whose relations in recent years have been expanding and developing, and we are interested in expanding our stable ties," he said.
Relations between the two regional heavyweights have been strained over non-Arab Iran's growing influence in Iraq and its perceived backing of Shiite militias battling the once-ruling Sunni minority there.

And we are the dreamers of dreams,
Wandering by lone sea-breakers,
And sitting by desolate streams.
World-losers and world-forsakers,
Upon whom the pale moon gleams;
Yet we are the movers and shakers,
Of the world forever, it seems.
With wonderful deathless ditties
We build up the world's great cities,
And out of a fabulous story
We fashion an empire's glory:
One man with a dream, at pleasure,
Shall go forth and conquer a crown;
And three with a new song's measure
Can trample an empire down.
We, in the ages lying
In the buried past of the earth,
Built Nineveh with our sighing,
And Babel itself with our mirth;
And o'erthrew them with prophesying
To the old of the new world's worth;
For each age is a dream that is dying,
Or one that is coming to birth.
~Arthur William Edgar O'Shaughnessy~

i don't know what kind of racket you're running there, sister
but it stinks...
it has "news consumers" fingerprints all over it
I have to ask people to not giggle when I tell them what they owe for not bringing a book back..ok...so shut up...it's humiliating enough...makes me feel like a 100buck a month teacher in oaxaca....
ok not really....that was some agit prop.. ( i think )
Agit-prop is a contraction of "agitation and propaganda".[1] The term originated in Bolshevist Russia (future Soviet Union), where the term was a shortened form of Š¾ŃŠ“ŠµŠ» Š°Š³ŠøŃŠ°ŃŠøŠø Šø ŠæŃŠ¾ŠæŠ°Š³Š°Š½Š“Ń (otdel agitatsii i propagandy), i.e., Department for Agitation and Propaganda, which was part of the Central and regional committees of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. The department was later renamed Ideological Department.
The term propaganda in the Russian language didn't bear any negative connotation at that time. It simply meant "dissemination of ideas". In the case of Agit-prop, the ideas to be disseminated were those of communism, including explanations of the policy of the Communist Party and the Soviet State. In other contexts, propaganda could mean dissemination of any kind of beneficial knowledge, e.g., of new methods in agriculture. "Agitation" meant urging people to do what Soviet leaders expected them to do; again, at various levels. In other words, propaganda was supposed to act on the mind, while agitation acted on emotions, although both usually went together, thus giving rise to the clichƩ "propaganda and agitation".
In the western world, agit-prop has a negative connotation. In the United Kingdom during the 1980s, for example, socialist elements of the political scene were often accused of using agit-prop to convey an extreme left-wing message via television programmes, theatre and even children's books. However, in a more general sense, a television cartoon might be described as 'agit-prop' if it could be interpreted as a marketing ploy to sell toys.
The term is frequently used in the modern Russian language to describe information provided by mass-media, if it is considered to be pro-government and biased.
After the Bolshevik revolution a Agitprop train toured the country, with artists and actors performing simple plays and broadcasting propaganda. It had a printing press on board the train to allow posters to be reproduced and thrown out of the windows if it passed through villages. Trotsky implemented them during the civil war to produce Bolshevik propaganda.

Reason number 1,534 why Mike is an arrogant conceited fop.
...........
excerpt from a 2003 CNN report on the Democratic field:
In January [of 2003], Lieberman led the [Democratic] field in the Newsweek poll with 22 percent.
...........
Hey, cool!
You know what that means, right?
Rudy Giuliani is *precisely* as "legitimate" (according to polls which mean nothing in March of 2007) as Joe Lieberman was "legitimate" (according to polls which mean nothing) in January of 2003.
Wow.
That Mike sure knows how to put a cork in an argument.
(I love Mike's peremptory sign-off -- "end of". It's Mike's charming way of signaling that he's just scored a game-ending touchdown in his Walter Mitty mind and it's time to put a cork in the conversation b/c "you people" can't think objectively.)
-- dr
p.s. Rudy may wind up being the Republican candidate, Mike. Not saying he won't. Just saying a lot can happen in the better part of a year, in which time Rudy might wind up looking about as "legitimate" as Joementum did. But then, you'd know that, Mike, if you ever did what you accuse "you people" of not doing: think objectively.

AO is our asshole immunization tool.
"he" is actually a computer generated personality set at random chaos and triggered by certain 'key' words much like the NSA web strip search programs.
