The Information Clearing House has made the video and a transcript of its content available: "A Message from the 'Iraq Resistance.'"

So what is the truth behind this latest kerfuffle in the Art World? Is Hockney merely obscurely projecting his own opinions onto the work of Renaissance artists? Or have they all lost any sense of perspective? Read the New Scientist story and make your own mind up. pat c read full story / add a comment

Not just in Ireland, across the water the image of the friendly bobby is also taking a bashing. What makes this case different is that it doesnt just hinge on the question of individuals being assaulted by the police; it also takes the form of an action over breach of Civil Liberties. The police intend to call Ken Livingston (in his capacity as mayor of London) as a witness. I await his testimony with bated breath. pat c (Story below) read full story / add a comment

Pius XII was pontiff, bishop of rome, secular head of the Roman Catholic Church, pope, head of the Holy See, and as such signed the diplomatic agreement with Mussolini ending a very long conflict over the territorial integrity of the Vatican and establishing it as a state, and as Pope did not call attention to the Shoah. Pius XII is currently being discussed for canonization by which he would be declared a Saint. read full story / add a comment

At a mass rally of 10,000 people on Monday January 10, Venezuela’s president Hugo Chavez announced a new decree aimed at speeding up land reform. Since the Land Act was passed in December 2001, the National Land Institute has already distributed 5.5 million acres of land to peasant cooperatives. Up until now all the land distributed has been state-owned land and there have been no expropriations. The new decree is aimed at the large landed estates (latifundia) that have been left idle or are poorly used. (January 12, 2005) read full story / add a comment

Todd Gitlin, Paul Berman and assorted intellectuals of the "decent left" have earned their keep arguing that anti-imperialism is nothing but an echo chamber of nihilism, oedipal rage and tacit support for whomever the governing class declares the enemy. Once upon a time their kind derided the Communist left as window dressing for the gulag; now they argue with parallel duplicity that anti-imperialists are shills for "Islamo-fascist" death cults and suicide bombers. As the gate-keepers of acceptable dissent, that is to say "none," they rarely take time to note what it is, this America, they've declared their loyalty to and what it is exactly the "anti-Americans" oppose. read full story / add a comment

Four remaining Britons and an Australian being held at Guantanamo Bay will be released soon, officials said Tuesday, amid reports the number of prisoners at the U.S. military base would be radically reduced. A lawyer acting for two of the Britons told Reuters all the British detainees would be released within weeks. "The Foreign Office has confirmed to me that the four of them will be coming back within the next few weeks," human rights lawyer Louise Christian said. read full story / add a comment

As in every country around the world, in Sri Lanka the people have reacted far more quickly than their government. It is an excellent opportunity for the masses to work together and to realise that co-existing and cooperation are possible and to experience them. Unfortunately, the authorities are not using this opportunity to forge unity, but the opposite. Article from socialistworld.net read full story / add a comment

What exactly is fascism? Political scientist Dr. Lawrence Britt recently wrote an article about fascism ("Fascism Anyone?," Free Inquiry, Spring 2003, page 20). Studying the fascist regimes of Hitler (Germany), Mussolini (Italy), Franco (Spain), Suharto (Indonesia), and Pinochet (Chile), Dr. Britt found they all had 14 elements in common. He calls these the identifying characteristics of fascism. read full story / add a comment

Pinochet is now going to get bail. and will be able to leave his house with swimming pool to have a toddle around only and only if the next judge supports the decision made earlier today to accept his bali application in relation to the ongoing investigation into his alledged missappropriation of several billion dollars during the extended operation Condor which brought him to power September 11 long time ago.
