Hier habe ich einen Bericht über den Einsatz von Landminen in Afghanistan von UNICEF

Doch nicht genug des Elends. Das Self Healing Minefield stellt einen der Höhepunkte der Innovationen im militärischen Bereich dar.

Freilich wäre es Sache von Tony Blair gewesen, den US-Falken klar zu machen, dass solche Sitten – ob geschüttelt oder gerührt – nicht ganz entsprechend dem guten Geschmack sind.

Man müsste diesen ausländischen Korrespondenten klar machen, dass es eigentlich keinen Champagner sondern bereits hochprozentigen Wodka erfordern würde, um dies oder jenes doch noch zu übersehen!

But Speaker Pelosi says impeachment is „off the table.“ How can we let George Bush and Dick Cheney get away with the Constitutional crimes they have committed – and continue to commit?

How can there be real change when Bush and Cheney insist on occupying Iraq forever at incalculable cost to human life and national debt?

And how can there be real change when Bush and Cheney insist the „War on Terror“ gives them the power to invade Iran whenever they please?

And how can there be real change when Bush and Cheney break the law every day through torture and warrantless wiretaps?

And how can there be real change when Bush and Cheney nullify every law they don’t like with signing statements?

On Saturday, Democrats.com and our progressive allies will launch a nationwide grassroots mobilization for impeachment in Philadelphia near Independence Hall, where the Constitution was signed on September 17, 1787. The mobilization is called ImpeachForChange. Our goals include:

1. A grassroots petition drive to collect 1 million signatures at ImpeachForChange.org
2. Form Impeachment Committees in all 435 Congressional Districts to lobby every Member of Congress by:
   delivering books & videos on impeachment
   collecting petitions and handwritten letters in front of their District Offices
   meeting with every Member to discuss the issues that require impeachment
3. Expand our Citizens Impeachment Commission to add prominent citizens, celebrities and bloggers
4. 12/10 Bush v. Gore Day:
   Hold Town Hall Meetings on impeachment around the country with Citizens Impeachment Commission speakers
5. 12/15-17 Bill of Rights Weekend:
   Collect petitions and handwritten letters at malls, libraries, post offices, and door-to-door
   Sell pocket Constitutions, bumper stickers, books, videos
6. 2007: Pass Impeachment bills in state legislatures

Transform Political Yard Signs into Impeach Signs

Are there lots of obsolete campaign signs littering your neighborhood? Recycle them!

Plan a sign-painting party to transform those signs into patriotic messages for regime change at home that you can put up all around town. Imagine a thousand signs around your city with such messages as „IMPEACH“ in giant letters. Or make a series of them with a single word on each: „Lying“ „Spying“ „Torture“ „IMPEACH!“ and plant them in a row along a busy street.

More on how to make impeachment signs out of election signs:

Already the Black Agenda Report is becoming an invaluable resource for progressives and activists. The cover story in the November 8th issue has a working headline of „Impeach! Impeach! Impeach!“ We can expect the same insight and experience to be brought to that issue that was brought to so many political issues over the years by the Black Commentator.

Finanziert Österreich mit Ilisu eines der umstrittensten Staudammprojekte der Welt?

„In wenigen Wochen soll die Entscheidung über das derzeit wohl umstrittenste Staudammprojekt der Welt fallen: In der Türkei, nahe der syrischen Grenze, soll eines der wichtigsten Täler der Menschheitsgeschichte in einem Stausee verschwinden. Die Türkei plant den Tigrisfluss bei Ilisu auf 130 Kilometern Länge aufzustauen. Der Damm soll 135 Meter hoch werden. Laut Wissenschaftlern und NGO-Vertretern handelt sich um eines der schlimmsten Dammprojekte mit dramatischen kulturellen, sozialen und ökologischen Konsequenzen. Und der Clou: ob dieser Staudamm gebaut wird odernicht, hängt ganz wesentlich von Österreich – dem Chef der Österreichischen Kontrollbank Rudolf Scholten und vor allem von Bundesfinanzminister Karl-Heinz Grasser – ab. Die Entscheidung darüber soll in den nächsten Wochen fallen….“

Glauben Sie nicht an Verschwörunggeschichten,lesen Sie ganz einfach, was 9/11 wirklich geschah!

Denken Sie an Hatch Rosenberg und daran, dass Anthrax einem US-Labor zugeordnet werden konnte!

Die Zeit ist läuft ab: Target Iran!

„And now, many of those races will be finally decided by what you do in the time between now and the closing of the polls. Please call and email your friends, family and colleagues and ask them to vote on Tuesday. Don’t let a single person you know let Tuesday pass without voting.“
(John Kerry)

Deshalb: Bitten Sie unsere amerikanischen Freunde: VOTE!!!

GB wäre niemals an die Macht gekommen, hätten nicht Interessensgruppen ebenso wie seine mächtige Familie seinen Aufstieg gestützt! Über die umfangreichen Vollmachten hinaus, die ein US-Präsident ohnehin hat, ließ er sich zusätzlich im Rahmen von GWOT noch weitere zusichern. Er trägt einen „kleinen Koffer mit einem roten Knopf“ mit sich.

VOTE!!! VOTE!!! VOTE!!!
