Transcript of 5/21 Palestinian Demo
transcribed by Mark Gabrish Conlan,

Transcript of interviews conducted by two IMC volunteers and a corporate media worker with participants in the May 21 downtown vigil to protest Israel's genocidal tactics against the Palestinians in general, particularly the recent killing of over 40 people and the bulldozing of hundreds of homes in the Rafah refugee camp in the Gaza Strip. Note how much more freely the KUSI interviewer spoke once he was no longer filming.

Ellis promoted an initiative on the November ballot to restrict the law to violent felons and re-evaluate the sentences of people like her brother.

Exxon/Mobil, the RNC & Widespread Nonviolent Militancy

“If elected, I will run the government like a business” -- George W. Bush

¡DETENGAMOS LA 'RESOLUCIÓN BRASILEÑA'!
Libertad de Expresión,

La reunión de la Comisión de Derechos Humanos de las Naciones Unidas se llevará a cabo del 15 de marzo al 23 de abril en Ginebra, Suiza.
Uno de los puntos más polémicos que se someterá a debate es el de la resolución sobre la “orientación sexual” que fue aplazada en la 59va sesión. Esta resolución, presentada por Brasil, fue expuesta como una medida para no discriminar a los homosexuales. Sin embargo, los miembros de la comisión en 2003 pudieron no haber comprendido totalmente las implicaciones de esta resolución.

FINALLY, OUR ANSWER TO BUSH
BiSexual Polar Bear for Rights,

Gay Penguin is a homosexual penguin. He is incapable of speaking, of signing laws and bills, and perhaps even incapable of abstract thought. However, in retrospect, the past four years of American Leadership have been so poor that Gay Penguin would have easily been the best choice for America.

Gay Penguins are coming out. Just recently, two penguins at the Central Park Zoo in Manhattan have celebrated six years of monogamy, and zoo keepers have given them an egg to raise, which hatched succesfully. While Christian Fundamentalists rally around Constitutional Amendments against Gay Marriage, Gay Penguins are proving that God has no problems with Gay Marriage or Gay Adoption.

But what about Gay Penguin as a Presidential Nominee? Why would he do a better job than George W Bush? Gay Penguin could not have signed the PATRIOT ACT, could not have appointed John Ashcroft, could not have invaded a foreign nation, alienated our allies, or embarked on a dangerous and divisive cultural war.

Gay Penguin, at worst, would have kept the Government in stasis. The Kyoto Treaty would stay signed, and America would likely be participating in the International Criminal Court.

The air would be cleaner, fewer jobs would have been lost, and America would not be in the midst of a perpetual war. Osama Bin Laden would still be at large, as he is now. Saddam Hussein's threat to Americans would remain as it is now- non existant!

Imagine a world where America has been ruled by a Gay Penguin since 2000: where would you be?
