Petition

Here is a vitally important
petition to the U.S. Senate to impeach George Bush and key administration
officials. Bush has committed so many impeachable offences against the U.S. Constitution and against international law. His lies to Americans to get them to support his war on Iraq is a major impeachable offence. His continuing to make illegal, unjustified war every day, resulting in the death or maiming of thousands of Americans is an impeachable offence. |

Long term C.I.A. analysts, authors of the following dire warning against a U.S. war with Iran, are saying what many others have said on our website, that Bush plans this war with Iran; that it is linked to U.S. Israeli policy; that it could become nuclear and threaten all humanity; that this war is very much against the interests of the U.S. and others; that the neocons have pushed this policy as well as initiated the war on Iraq primarily to satisfy Israel's territorial ambitions; that most Americans fear to speak out because they have been conditioned to believe that those against Israeli policy are anti-Semitic. |

Let's
Stop a US/Israeli War on Iran The peace movements of the entire world should be in crisis mode right now, working non-stop to prevent the U.S. and Israel from starting a war against Iran. (See the James Petras article in CounterPunch on December 24, 2005 titled Iran in the Crosshairs for the best summary of the present situation.) The reckless and unnecessary dangers arising from such a war are so obvious that one wonders why normal political forces in the two aggressor countries -- both of whom love to glorify themselves as democracies -- would not prevent such a war from happening. |

Iran's danger to America
is not its nuclear program but its plan to introduce a euro-based energy
exchange. Starting in 2006, Iran will start up an "oil bourse", or a stock exchange for trading energy, that will be based on the euro, not the US dollar. While this may seem innocuous, it will be a grave risk to continued American global hegemony. |

Robert Steinback has written
an excellent analysis of how far the American public has adapted to Bushism
since the 9/11 attack in 2001. Although Bush's popularity has gone down to 35%, his control over the country is not seriously challenged. He still gets what he wants with a few modest objections. More importantly he continues to wage an illegal war based on lies, and plans for a war on Iran, perhaps with nuclear weapons. Remarkably few object. Even the Democratic Party don't oppose him, and refused to tell the American people the truth about Bush's Iraq war lies. They actually support that illegal war based on a litany of lies They refuse to expose and fight Bush's electronic voting machine fraud in the 2004 election, that gave him another term in the Whitehouse. There is no longer a real opposition party in the USA. |

People may not be aware of how deeply the criminal neocon system of beliefs have permeated the Bush Administration. It is very pervasive, very committed, criminally insane, and convinced they are right. They have also committed themselves to the potential pre-emptive use of nuclear weapons against any non-nuclear states they decide to claim are 'suspected of having WMD and suspected of plotting to attack the U.S.' |

The refrain of the Democrats about being misled into supporting the invasion of Iraq has become really tired. And someone other than the White House smearmongers needs to say it: The Democrats cannot be allowed to use faulty intelligence as a crutch to hold up their unforgivable support for the Iraq invasion. What is DNC Chair Howard Dean's excuse? He wasn't in Congress and didn't have any access to Senate intelligence. Still, on March 9, 2003, just days before the invasion began, Dean told Tim Russet, on NBC's Meet The Press, "I don't want Saddam staying in power with control over those weapons of mass destruction. I want him to be disarmed." |

Three weeks ago, Nick Turse wrote a dispatch, The Fallen Legion, Casualties of the Bush Administration, about government officials who resigned or retired in protest, or were forced over a cliff by this administration. It was, in essence, a proposal for a Wall of Honor. At the time, we realized that it should be accompanied by a Wall of Shame. This, then, is the first of two linked pieces that attempt to apportion a little of the shame and honor. Look for Nick Turse's accompanying piece tomorrow. |

They already understood that what the Bush administration so clearly planned to do was based on lies.

to Continuing US-UK War Crimes in Iraq Now Tony Blair's military are putting Kendall-Smith on trial for refusing to serve again in Iraq because he believes the war is illegal. The evidence keeps piling up, far more than we had in 2003 and 2004 that the war is illegal and violates every law, every convention, every treaty on every aspect of waging war, that humanity has ever created. Really it is so absolutely stupefying, and I am amazed that there is so little opposition to Blair's colossal deceit.

The question of legality deeply concerns the British military brass, who sought Tony Blair's assurance on the eve of the invasion, got it and, as they now know, were lied to. They are right to worry; Britain is a signatory to the treaty that set up the International Criminal Court, which draws its codes from the Geneva Conventions and the 1945 Nuremberg Charter. The latter is clear: "To initiate a war of aggression... is not only an international crime, it is the supreme international crime, differing only from other war crimes in that it contains within itself the accumulated evil of the whole." |

Until today, gross incompetence, abuse of power, corruption, corporatocracy, and federal insolvency could be checked and reversed by balanced and separated governmental powers, and at the ballot box by a citizenry informed and provoked by an alert and independent media. Now all branches of government and the mainstream media are dominated by the wealthy elites in control of a single political party. Can you believe this? ..... bushwatch |

Escalation Scenarios Spiraling to World Nuclear War |
by Carol
Moore

|
|
A world nuclear war is one that involves most or all nuclear powers releasing a large proportion of their nuclear weapons at targets in nuclear, and perhaps non-nuclear, states. Such a war could be initiated accidentally, aggressively or pre-emptively and could continue and spread through these means or by retaliation by a party attacked by nuclear weapons. While some speak of "limited nuclear war," it is likely that any nuclear war will quickly escalate and spiral out of control because of the "use them or loose them" strategy. If you don't use all your nuclear weapons you are likely to have them destroyed by the enemy's nuclear weapons. |

Why did such a big movement occur from such a small action on August 6, 2005? .....full story |

As the blood of US soldiers continues to drain into the hot sands of Iraq over the last several days with at least 27 US soldiers killed and the approval rating for his handling of the debacle in Iraq dropping to an all-time low of 38%, Mr. Bush commented from the comforts of his ranch in Crawford, Texas today, We will stay the course, we will complete the job in Iraq. |

Last week, we wrote of the Bush Faction's increasingly successful drive to establish the principle of unlimited presidential authority -- beyond the reach of any law or constitutional restriction -- as the new foundation of a militarist American state. This relentless push toward autocracy gained even more strength in recent days, in two cases centering on what has emerged as the very core of President George W. Bush's authoritarian philosophy: torture. |

Can you imagine that in a time of peace at the end of the cold war, with the US recognised as the only superpower, the US military takes 68 cents of every tax dollar for defence, as against only 32 cents on everything else. And it's not enough, they want more. |
Two-Thirds
On Defense |

Many Americans believe that 19 cents on defense for every 81 cents on non-defense is a reasonable way to spend a tax dollar. But by another calculation, the tax dollar splits 68 cents for defense and 32 cents on everything else. It is a common misconception that U.S. defense expenditure is equivalent to the Department of Defense outlays. Instead of $436.4 billion of defense expenditure, as Congressional budgeteers count, government statisticians in the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) counted $548.0 billion for calendar year 2004a whopping $112 billion difference. And by our own calculations, U.S. defense expenditure is much higher than even the BEA's numbers suggest, namely $765.6 billion in calendar year 2004about $330 billion or than the Department of Defense outlays. |

We have already crossed the Rubicon. We
are already in Hell. World War III in Eurasia is already ongoing. There
was not an Iraq war; there is a continuing Iraq war. There was not an
Afghanistan war; there is a continuing Afghanistan war. There's already
an onset of a war with Iran, being run covertly, as a covert operation,
from the United States, in Iran right now! You see it on the television
screens here. That is not a spontaneous student movement. That is a
U.S.-run destabilization of Iran, trying to set up the conditions for
a war. The situation in Korth Korea; other situations I know of; we
are now inside World War III. It is not something that we could prevent
from happening. We're there. |

At the end of the Iraq war, vast sums of money were made available to the US-led provisional authorities, headed by Paul Bremer, to spend on rebuilding the country. By the time Bremer left the post eight months later, $8.8bn of that money had disappeared. Ed Harriman on the extraordinary scandal of Iraq's missing billions. |

....Some believe his [Bush] Administration was implicated in committing the 9/11 attacks - the new 'Pearl Harbour' called for in the neocon PNAC papers. Without 9/11, his lies and war crimes would not be possible. So far, he has got away with all these crimes, consolidated and increased his power domestically and externally. He is absolutely committed to continue these crimes, and will likely increase them. There seems to be no serious and powerful opposition from the Democrats or others, such as the mass media, to Bush's administration and actions. |
