So much for Labour's pledge to cut energy bills by £300, says David Turver. Under GB Energy, our bills can only go one way, and that is up.

The Sunday Papers (& the Saturday Papers too).

category international | miscellaneous | opinion/analysis author Sunday May 16, 2004 21:30author by iosaf the ipsiphi Report this post to the editors

being this weeks hymn sheet and game plan.

We are going to make an extra special effort on the 17th of May 2004.

If you check your agenda and planners, you will see that May 17 is going to be an important day.

So do whatever you do for May 17.

Status of the Western Cultural Enemy:-

Bush has now fallen behind Kerry for the first time in a U.S. voter intention opinion poll.(1*)

France has topped Germany in the country least liked by Israeli citizens for the first time.(2*)

Rumsfeld is being offered to us on a plate.
& we haven't even danced like salome yet!
So, 300 prisoners out, apologies not yet all round, arab league gonna talk 23-24/5, and 33 years of ViagraMan are now to be looked at.
This will be fun. It will mean a completely new editorial, documental and even coffee table intepretation of the Iraq/Iran wars and the proxy tactics used by both sides.

(We have a non-aggression thingy with the Ruskies for the moment. Leave vlad the Ras-Putin alone for the moment.)

"coach chat":-

Powell and Rice ought be every thinking libertarian's, democrat's, egalitarian's and freaky's target this next week. Let us test the ethnic sincerity of Bush's doves and apologists. The extended retro-time frame will prove very useful. Older readers, writers, politicians and Europeans and indeed Russians and way hey Arabs, will be delighted to re-visit Daddy Bush.

Blair will go if he takes Bush down too. And guarantees no return to the "bush dynasty".

It is not certain @ the moment, whether or not pushing Blair out by May 17 will bring down Bush by June 30th.

Bertie (our lad on 30/6/04) will not be raking Romani's job, that brendan o'c hsa a wicked sense of humour, I almost wet myself laughing, har har har, dollop on the sarcasm why not?
but hey he really has excelled himself in the international parlour game circuit. Sloppy big Hugs, Bertie man, you have made it to the next level.
There's a health pack and some special powers on your left. You're ok till the elections.


This next pre-May 17th we all either learn Scottish or patiently let them do the mooting, the Scot has the floor. (That's is if we aren't mainlander Europeans yet)

We have a non-aggression thingy with the Ruskies.

"The Great Campaign", of ending the wars in the Levant to the Middle East has carried the momentum of one of Hanibal's elephants over the Alps and to the Rubicon.

We have a few days to think less about it, remembering that most of those to be now "led" (the voters of middle and lower U.S. America) are very much slower thinkers than we are, and it is of not matter to them that Bush is not even a parody of Scipio junior.

So this week, ignore Bush and let Kerry display his wares. For we have not yet been offered full and open sight on the real target of this crusade against Western Evil.
So till May 17, let's see what Mr Kerry has to say to us, to presuade us that as we many believe, Nadar is the only choice to Darth Vader.

Let Powell's outrage that Berg's murder has not prompted enough disgust and condemnation in the World (with particular emphasis on the arab world) bounce back like over chewed bubble gum on his face.

Rice as we know, is the most powerful professed and practising presbyterian in the world, let us see her speak Scottish.


room 101 :-

May 17, is a very important day for computer people.
this is list of orgs/internet users who are opposed to developments in intellectual property. which shall be dealt with 17/5/04 in €urope.
This is one of our other "Great Campaign", the fight against immoral and irrational control of information by capitalist laws.

We have less "all round support" in this other Great Campaign even though it is as wise, as well thought out, as tippy toppy insightful and intelligent. But most European politicians and "business leaders" are alas slower thinkers than we are.

and read the info @:-
http://patents.caliu.info/index.en.html
http://drcwww.kub.nl/dbi/instructie/eu/en/T21.htm

Meanwhile, loads of people in Northern Ireland (and northern ireland) have been well pissed off over computer privacy infringement and unprecedented levels of nuisance hackery. It would be prudent of the people who do this sort of thing, to consider the great geo-political cyber stage and not only the "Great Work" of Europe, but the more relevant than ever "Great Work let information be Free" which we are slowly negotiating with our really great new chums the Chinese.
¿got that?
practise your code on someone else.
or each other. None of us like seeing the data tree of one our island's newswire/forums corrupted. It is a serious attack on our core values.

If you're surfing:-
go look at:- http://www.india.indymedia.org
it's full of non homespun articles that like flotsam do the fertilisation thing for us in inydmedia land. Everything's there @ the moment, de-saffronazi-ing, the federal reserve, Mr Chomksy, gossip on the Ghandi's, and stuff about Isreal.

Status of the Enemy within:-

the Bush dynasty disaster has been marked throughout the European homeland by increased racism, and ultra-right activity. This is natural, many of these groups find their funding and political support in the USA.
Al lthis despite serious efforts made by both left and right wign moderate politicians and theorists to contain such extremism.

Yesterday's key demonstration organised by SOS Racism in France, against anti-Semitism in that country, stoking extremist diatrabes from all sections of the "Trio of Sion". (you remember the mountain "berg" we are all building?)

17/5/04
May 17 2004
17th May 2004

oh what will that be about?
look at your interests.
think about that day as a focus.

oh and May 17 2004 we see if Greenpeace USA, (and one of the pacific fleets of our movement) are put on the terrorist list by the Bush Dynasty.
http://www.greenpeaceusa.org/bin/view.fpl/16961.html
That would be "symbolic no?".

Oh and on the personal note, loads of Chilean news at http://del-sur.net/ .
Saw Carlinhos Brown last night, hundreds of thousands of people doing the Brazilian happy dance in the street thing, local mayor up on the bus off his head, wish he could be like that all the time. Could you do that Bertie?
- Doubt it. But anyway horses for courses.

the weird news of "The Great Campaign" is archived here on indymedia. Use the Search button- You have no excuse not to be "very well informed", and thus to "inform others".

seventeenth of may.
