Independent Journalists Visit, Report on Iraq
Mark Gabrish Conlan/Zenger’s Newsmagazine,
Independent journalists and filmmakers Mark Manning and Dahr Jamail spoke at the Thomas Jefferson College of Law June 2 and showed a short film, "Caught in the Crossfire," documenting the utter destruction U.S. forces in Iraq leveled against the city of Falloujah in November 2004. Jamail talked about how the U.S. military actions in Iraq have consistently violated international law and how the corporate media helped build support for the war — itself, he argued, a war crime — while Manning said the U.S. people are ultimately responsible for stopping the war in Iraq and bringing their country back to the norms of legal behavior.

Bush, NSA Kill Democracy
Mark Gabrish Conlan/Zenger’s Newsmagazine,
The revelation that since shortly after 9/11 the federal government has received records of virtually every phone call made in the U.S. is a shocker even by the increasingly jaded standards of the "war on terror" era. There are a number of salient points to make about this program: 1) It is patently illegal on its face. 2) It is a symptom of the Bush administration’s visceral contempt for civil liberties, the right of privacy, judicial due process and anything else that would stand in the way of Bush’s radical-Right blueprint to turn the Presidency into a dictatorship. 3) Bush and the members of his administration have systematically lied to the American people about the extent of their spying on them and sought to punish the journalists who have brought these stories to light. 4) The majority of the American people have become so traumatized by 9/11 and the fear-mongering of this administration that they will go along with this latest offense against their liberties.

Cygnet's Atwater an Acting Tour de Force
Mark Gabrish Conlan/Zenger’s Newsmagazine,
Cygnet Theatre's production of Robert Myers' one-person play "Atwater: Fixin' to Die" offers Jeffrey Jones the opportunity for an acting tour de force as Lee Atwater, who was to the first President Bush what Karl Rove is to the second — his vicious, unprincipled hatchet man. Myers' script never quite resolves the contradiction between Atwater the unashamed race-baiter in his campaigns and Atwater the lover of African-American music and amateur blues player who recorded an album with B. B. King — but the piece does show that the seemingly anarchic, liberated energy of rock ’n’ roll could actually be quite easily harnessed to an ultra-indvidualist Right-wing political agenda.

Film Exposes Negroponte’s Human-Rights Abuses
Mark Gabrish Conlan/Zenger’s Newsmagazine,
John D. Negroponte has steadily risen through the ranks of the U.S. government, from ambassador to Honduras in the early 1980's and Mexico in the early 1990's to Bush's ambassador to the U.N. in 2001, ambassador to (and effective ruler of) Iraq in 2004 and now the head of ALL U.S. intelligence. But a Norwegian documentary, "The Ambassador," explores Negroponte's involvement in political killings and other human-rights abuses in Honduras when he was ambassador there. The film was screened May 10 at the First Unitarian-Universalist Church in Hillcrest and Andreas Tomás Gutierrez, who defied Negroponte at his confirmation hearing for the U.N. appointment on September 13, 2001, spoke about the film and his work with Honduran human-rights activists who documented — and sometimes experienced — Negroponte's abuses.

Genocide in Northern Uganda
Mark Gabrish Conlan/Zenger’s Newsmagazine,
On May 8 Activist San Diego moved its regular monthly meeting to the Alliance for African Assistance in the College area to hear Ugandan émigré Charlie Lakony of Friends for Peace in Africa and Kathy Smith of Amnesty International discuss the Ugandan government's human-rights abuses against the Acholi people in northern Uganda. Though the government blames the situation in the north on a religious-Right guerrilla movement called the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA), Lakony and Smith argued that the government, not the LRA, is responsible for 93 percent of the over 3,000 people, many of them children, who die in northern Uganda every week. They also said Uganda has used the concentration-camp strategy to cut off northern Ugandans from their homes and land and render them vulnerable to deaths from disease and kidnapping by both LRA forces and Uganda's own army.

Over 200 Attend Anti-War Demo on Iran
Mark Gabrish Conlan/Zenger’s Newsmagazine,
Despite only two days' notice, over 200 people attended a demonstration at the Federal Building in downtown San Diego May 6 to protest the Bush administration's plans for war against Iran. Speakers at the rally highlighted the similarities between the ways the Bush administration is pushing for an attack on Iran — including manipulating the media to create an atmosphere of fear that will lead the public to support the war — and the ways it previously pushed for the war on Iraq. There was also a lot of concern about the reports that the Bush administration plans to use so-called "tactical" nuclear weapons in any attack on Iran.
