>"ESCALATION"
>Life in the Second Bush Administration
>by Charles Shaw, Editor-in-Chief
>
>"Throughout the last forty years a legitimate Revolution was taking 
>place in this country. It was quieter and more clandestine than the 
>Socialist revolutions of the 60's, growing from within, from the 
>grassroots upward. It was by the Right, and they now have control of 
>the nation. Orwell may be spinning in his grave, but Barry Goldwater 
>is cackling like a madman in his."

>"9-11 has posed a profound crisis for Americans and the world. It 
>has created almost instantly a militaristically driven approach to 
>all world problems, and put human rights in the back seat of 
>national and international thought. It has also put economic and 
>environmental concerns in the back seat. We are guaranteed to see 
>endlessly bloating military budgets worldwide for as far as the eye 
>can see as "9-11" is used like a hammer by politicians funded by 
>military weapons producers to forge a culture of militarism and 
>fear."

>911 TRUTH FILES LAWSUIT WITH NY ATTORNEY GENERAL ELLIOT SPITZER
>
>100 prominent US leaders including three national presidential 
>candidates, Nader (Indp.), Cobb (Greens), Badnarik (Libertarian) 
>Parties, and actor Ed Asner, singers Michelle Shocked and Richie 
>Havens, etc. have signed a 911 Truth Statement, along with 40 9/11 
>victim's family members, in support of an official complaint 
>delivered to New York Attorney General, Elliot Spitzer's, office 
>demanding a criminal investigation into the events of Sept. 11th, 
>2001.
>
>The Statement supports an August 31st Zogby poll that found nearly 
>50% of New Yorkers believe the government had foreknowledge and 
>"consciously failed to act," with 66% wanting a new 9/11 
>investigation; and a recent online CNN Poll of 11/11/2004 that 
>showed 90% of respondents believe there is a US government cover up 
>of the events of 9/11/2001; and now on the heels of the stunning CNN 
>poll comes a whistleblower, an executive at Underwriter Laboratories 
>(who tested the WTC steel beams), who's informed 911Truth.org that 
>the official story of the WTC buildings collapsing because of 
>burning jet fuel is a false one.
>
>Focusing on twelve questions, the Statement highlights areas of 
>incriminating evidence that were either inadequately explored or 
>ignored by the Kean Commission, ranging from insider trading and 
>hijacker funding to foreign government forewarnings and inactive 
>defenses around the Pentagon. The Statement asks for four actions: 
>an immediate investigation by New York Attorney General Eliot 
>Spitzer, Congressional hearings, media analysis, and the formation 
>of a truly independent citizens-based inquiry.

>Vol. IV, Issue 20 - Feb/Mar 2005  - "LAW & ORDER"
>
>In this so-called "post-911" world, all peoples are becoming 
>increasingly concerned with security. Yet as history has shown us, 
>increased security always comes at the expense of our civil 
>liberties. But is it all about security?
>
>Like Russia and China before it, America is rapidly transforming 
>into a gulag state, as a full 3 million citizens currently languish 
>behind bars. Rather than fund schools and hospitals, this nation 
>builds prisons. This contrasts sharply with the greatly reduced 
>crime rates in Europe and Japan, where social needs are provided for 
>citizens on a much more substantial scale.
>
>In this issue we will examine some of the wide ranging concepts of 
>Law & Order including, crime and punishment, the American 
>"litigation society", the global push for a unified system of law, 
>the drug war and the prison-industrial complex, and the abrogation 
>of civil liberties that come with increased security.

>THE CRUDE TRUTH
>by Henry Quentin Jones
>
>World trade is now a game in which the US produces dollars and the 
>rest of the world produces things that dollars can buy...like oil. 
>This is the story of the Petrodollar, the true Governor General of 
>the Empire, and the force that makes the US supreme.
>
>"Why did we go to war in Iraq and Afghanistan? It wasn't because of 
>WMD, terrorism, liberation, or even bold political doctrines. It was 
>to stabilize the Petro Dollar, and prevent the US Economy, and by 
>proxy much of the world economy, from an epic collapse on par with 
>the Great Depression."

>NOTA FINA
>
>How ironic that the Green Party, who didn't even crack a million 
>votes in the Presidential Election this year, are the only defenders 
>of American Democracy, having raised the money for a full count in 
>Ohio. And where is John Kerry?
