Several boys die copying Saddam hanging

A day after Saddam's execution, a 10-year-old boy in Texas hanged himself from a bunk bed after watching a news report on the execution. Police in the Houston suburb of Webster said the boy, Sergio Pelico, tied a slipknot around his neck while on the bed but had not mean to kill himself. "I don't think he thought it was real," Julio Gustavo, Sergio's uncle, said afterward. "They showed them putting the noose around his neck and everything. Why show that on TV?" Something similar occurred in Turkey, where 12-year-old Alisen Akti hanged himself Wednesday from a bunk bed after watching TV footage. His father, Esat Akti, told a newspaper in the southeastern province of Mus that his son had been affected by the televised images. "After watching Saddam's execution he was constantly asking 'How was Saddam killed?' and 'Did he suffer?'" Akti was quoted as saying. "These television images are responsible for my son's death....
Watada is a military hero who refused to participate in the rape of Iraq, but his disappointment on American public to stand up to the rape of Iraq is misplaced. Americans always help their troops even when they rape. "Could it be that ... many people don't care about the illegality of this war?" Watada asked students and others who packed a hall at Seattle Central Community College. "It is my belief that the American people have relinquished their responsibility."

Who condemned terrorism?

Muslim organizations around the world condemned terrorism for the September 11, 2001 terrorist attack; did American organizations condemned American terrorist attack around the world which killed almost a million people and made refugees of more than two million peoples? Does a Whiteman think a blood of Muslim less red than that of white people and their slaves in America or around the world? Terrorism need to be condemned and fought by people of all faiths and people who don’t believe in God or gods. This has nothing to do with religion. Whiteman established a system based on superiority of a white man and later on the superiority of Americans in general (racism and hatred of ethnics is still rampant in America though.) manifest destiny where white Americans used to rape other nations as well as native Americans, blacks and Hispanics and others here in the United States is still used. That is why American terrorism is acceptable against other people and not being condemned. The Whit...

'Racist' marriage law upheld by Israel

By Donald Macintyre in Jerusalem Published: 15 May 2006 Israel's High Court has narrowly upheld a law denying Palestinians from the West Bank and Gaza married to Israeli citizens the right to live in the country with their spouses. The judges voted by six to five not to cancel a four-year-old amendment to the Citizenship Law which outlaws "family unification" in Israel between Palestinians and Arab citizens of Israel. It was passed as a one-year emergency measure in 2002 on the ground that it was needed to protect Israeli security. But the amendment, described yesterday by the Knesset member Ran Cohen, of the left-wing Meretz party, as "rooted in racism", has been renewed every year since then. Israel's Chief Justice, Aharon Barak, sided with the minority on the bench, declaring: "This violation of rights is directed against Arab citizens of Israel. As a result, therefore, the law is a violation of the right of Arab citizens in Israel to equality."...

In their own words

David Ben-Gurion to Nahum Goldmann, the president of the World Jewish Congress: “If I were an Arab leader I would never make terms with Israel. That is natural: we have taken their country . . . We come from Israel, but two thousand years ago, and what is that to them? There has been anti-semitism, the Nazis, Hitler, Auschwitz, but was that their fault? They only see one thing: we have come here and stolen their country. Why should they accept that?”

The Power of Zionism

14 Carter Center Board Members Resign (AP) Fourteen members of an advisory board to Jimmy Carter's human rights organization resigned on Thursday to protest his new book, which has been attacked as unfairly critical of Israel and riddled with inaccuracies. The resignations at the Carter Center are the latest backlash against the former president's book "Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid." The book has also drawn fire from Jewish groups and fellow Democrats, and led to the resignation last month of Kenneth Stein, a center fellow and a longtime Carter adviser. "You have clearly abandoned your historic role of broker in favor of becoming an advocate for one side," the departing members of the center's Board of Councilors told Carter in their letter of resignation. The 200-member board is responsible for building public support for the Carter Center. It is not the organization's governing board. The board's members "are not engaged in implementing ...
After telling Zionist criminal leaders in Palestine; George “The Coward” now sending his slave girl Condoleezza “condominium” Rice to occupied Palestine to give a sense to American public he is trying to make peace between the Zionist murderers and the occupied Palestinian people. We all know he sabotaged the Palestinian government led by Ismael Haniya, created a civil war between the government and Fattah tugs, withheld the help Palestinian money directly and indirectly through the Zionist occupation forces, destroyed infrastructure (through the Zionist government)., bomb the population (through the Zionist government). Then he realized Palestinians are not cowed or backed down. Why the interest now? To say he “The Coward” started negotiation but run out of time? just like Clinton did? There can’t be peace nor can it be two separate homelands for the Zionist occupiers and the Palestinian natives. How could there be? Except Gaza which is very small land surrounded by Zionist forces; th...
