President Bush has signed an executive order which will allow the US military to shoot down one that country's satelites before its diminishing orbit means the loss of the Hydragin gas it holds. They say they're doing this to safeguard lives. Hydragin as we all might guess is a very dangerous substance. They're not saying they're doing this to have a bit of practise at a remarkably difficult exercise they have not officially admitted to having done before. For many good reasons such as incapability, implausibility and the usual reliable Star Wars diplomacy crap. read full story / add a comment

In his 28th Jan 2008, column for the New Statesman, John Pilger with withering outrage attacks the "ritual danse macabre" that is the US presidential election : Barack Obama is a glossy Uncle Tom who would bomb Pakistan. Hillary Clinton, another bomber, is anti-feminist. John McCain’s one distinction is that he has personally bombed a country. They all believe the US is not subject to the rules of human behaviour ... read full story / add a comment

This is a short piece in general response to queries received regarding the setting up of sites on existing available free open software systems. There are many women's groups currently developing tech and doing road shows for women who wish to focus their community voices onto IMC type systems. This is in response to a developing awareness of a need within women's political communities for 'a room of one's own' to work on issues and themes that never quite make the radar. read full story / add a comment

Over a million dead Iraqis, several thousand US soldiers killed in action, several thousands more soldiers dead by suicide, an even great number of soldiers maimed and disabled. All those lives for non existent weapons of mass destruction and a false allegation of links between Iraq and Al Qaeda - yet George Bush thinks it is funny. read full story / add a comment

Yassamine Mather of Hands Off the People of Iran faced pro-war journalist Nick Cohen of The Observer in London’s Soho Theatre on January 29. There are links below to an artiocle about the debate and to an mp3 of the proceedings. Yassamine said the peoples of Iran have no wish to be a pariah on the international scene and have a deep antipathy to the theocracy, they also do not want their country to be “humiliated - either by sanctions or air strikes”. read full story / add a comment
