Chevron Oil, natural gas and coal have been the energy workhorses for the last 100 years. To meet the world's future energy demand, we have to expand these old sources and begin making the new ones viable. By working together, we can prepare for this next era of energy. www.willyoujoinus.com

The devil came here yesterday," Chavez said, referring to Bush, who addressed the world body Tuesday from the same lectern. "And it smells of sulfur still today."

Hey, do the Democrats care about fair trade? Did you notice the collapse of the Doha Round of the WTO?

http://www.axisoflogic.com/...

...what made the negotiations flounder was the realisation by the poor countries that there was `something wrong' in the way the WTO operated, and that, possibly, WTO's very foundation stone, the almost axiomatic belief that open markets benefit everyone, the rich as well as the poor countries, turned out to be spurious, or false. Indeed, it is no longer possible not to see, after twenty years or so of neo-liberal globalisation, that open markets have -- through the colossal - and let us say it, indecent and shocking -- profits of the big multinational corporations (MNCs) -- disproportionately benefited the rich countries.

You have to go to Lebanon to hear this point of view. Many will disagree with it. But it is a possible factor. Yet it is rarely (ever?) mentioned in the american press.

Is anyone awake to the wake-up call in London?
By Rami G. Khouri
Commentary by
Saturday, August 12, 2006
Talk about wake-up calls. The arrest in England of 21 people who allegedly planned to blow up airplanes over the Atlantic Ocean is about as dramatic and dangerous as it gets in the wake-up call department. Something is driving average young men to plan and execute deeds of almost unimaginable inhumanity, targeting innocent civilians in the West who have nothing to do with whatever conflict may be at hand here.

Lebanon Massacre Will Live In Infamy
By Ghali Hassan - 24 July, 2006 - Countercurrents.org
In one week of deliberately calculated act of aggression and savagery against Lebanon and the Lebanese people, the Israeli army have destroyed the entire nation civilian infrastructure and massacred more than 400 innocent civilians in cold blood, injured at least 1,000 people and caused a million people to flee their homes.

Do you think if Israel will give the Lebanese the right to return to their rubble? (They will have plenty of stones to throw at Israeli tanks). Read More

read arab opinion much? here is a tame one by Soumaya Ghannoushi, a researcher at the School of Oriental & African Studies, University of London.

The opinions expressed here are the author's and do not necessarily reflect the editorial position or have the endorsement of Aljazeera.

http://english.aljazeera.net/...

The G8 convened just as Israel's tanks pounded Palestinian towns, villages and refugee camps, while a few miles away its warplanes set Lebanon's skies ablaze, turning its nights into an inferno of bombs, death and misery.
Scores of innocent people have lost their lives. Villages have been levelled, and bridges, hospitals, roads, airports, fuel storage facilities and even milk factories have been destroyed.
Years of regeneration effort are reduced to rubble.

The New York Times headline about a family van hit by an Apache missle seems to blame the family for not choosing to leave earlier. What about the Israelis military choice to destroy Lebanon's economy and take 10 eyes for an eye.

I wish this map had attacks on Israel. It would be a comical comparison. Thanks to poxonyou.

Leaving the Truth Buried in Gaza's Sands

By JONATHAN COOK

http://www.counterpunch.org/...

the [Israeli] Supreme Court ordered the army and Ministry of Defence to pull down several kilometres of the steel and concrete barrier they have erected on Palestinian land in the West Bank after it was proved that the security considerations behind the choice of the wall's route were entirely bogus. Official documents reveal that the wall was located there to allow for the future expansion of nearly illegal Jewish settlements on yet more Palestinian land. The army and government concocted the fib and then stuck to it for more than two years. Chief Justice Aharaon Barak called their systematic lying "a grave phenomenon".

on all things considered today the panel joked together and laughed twice while commenting on "an inconvenient truth", the new al gore movie on global warming.

once they joked and laughed about the sad eyed polar bear who cant find ice. the panel doesnt seem to realize that the polar bear is tired and is going to die.

the panel all laughed about having plenty of time to build dykes around new york.

if they had laughed at it in a dark humor dr strangelove kind of way i would understand.

but the panel was making fun of the idea that the crowds at the movies felt for the plight of the polar bear. they made fun of the idea that new york may be doomed by melting ice.

he only argumant they had agaisnt it was that maybe some of the melting in a few places wasnt totally because the planet is getting warmed up by humans who buy drive and fly. Read More

Joe Shepard, sheriff of Gibson County, said 200 to 250 homes were destroyed in his county.
"It's like someone dropped an atomic bomb on the county," he said. "I've been a sheriff for 20 years and I've never seen anything like it. Things that sit out in the yard -- tin roofs, clothes, cars, propane tanks -- are all over the place."
In the rural areas, Shepard said, searchers had to venture into the fields and pick through debris for victims. One family -- a husband and wife and their two children -- were found 150 yards from their home.

Iran's foreign policy chief, Ali Larijani, told reporters in Tehran that the decision to hold talks on Iraq with the United States followed a request from two Iraqi leaders: Abdelaziz Hakim of the pro-Iranian Shiite group Supreme Council for Islamic Revolution in Iraq and interim President Jalal Talabani, a Kurd. Shiites make up a majority in the two Persian Gulf nations.

NPR talk of the nation and all other media i found say the israeli army raided a few minutes after the british and american monitors left. palestinians are convincd it was collusion.

funny how new york times lies about it:

http://www.nytimes.com/....

British and American prison monitors, who were watching over the six prisoners, left the Jericho jail earlier this week after raising concerns about their own security and the lack of Palestinian compliance with a 2002 agreement that set the conditions for imprisoning the six.
