The death has occured of an indymedia NYC photojournalist and activist in Oaxaca Mexico. He was shot by forces loyal to the Governor of Oaxaca as he was videoing in the zone of the popular uprising led by the APPO- The Popular Assembly of the Oaxacan People. We have all seen the photos of the assassin, the downed photographer and the scenes in NYC of Erin Siegel Indymedia photographer/Reuter photographer being arrested and her camera confiscated. The Protest at the Mexican Consulate was a solidarity and celebration of Brad Will's Life. Others have died this week in Oaxaca, members of the APPO and the medium for Broadcast of the APPO, the Radio Universidad was attacked and put off Air. In all this the activist and writer has died and brought the truth of the lawlessness of the federales who are sponsored by the US into our community. It should not have taken a death to do this. read full story / add a comment

How insulting is this. Bremer had two lieutenants on the economic front: Thomas Foley and Michael Fleischer, the heads of “private sector development” for the Coalition Provisional Authority (CPA). Foley is a Greenwich, Connecticut, multimillionaire, a longtime friend of the Bush family and a Bush-Cheney campaign “pioneer” who has described Iraq as a modern California “gold rush.” Fleischer, a venture capitalist, is the brother of former White House spokesman Ari Fleischer. Neither man had any high-level diplomatic experience and both use the term corporate “turnaround” specialist to describe what they do. According to Foley, this uniquely qualified them to manage Iraq’s economy because it was “the mother of all turnarounds.” Baghdad Year Zero http://www.commondreams.org/views04/0924-13.htm read full story / add a comment |
