(Delaware County, population11,044). Recently the Lansdowne Council passed aresolution declaring Lansdowne a "Bill of RightsProtection Zone." Among other things, the resolutionexpresses the Council's concern that The USA PatriotAct and certain executive orders and policy decisionsmade by the executive branch of the US governmentviolate important constitutional protections. Why wasthis action taken? Why is a little town inSoutheastern Pennsylvania concerning itself withnational issues? The answer is simple: we arepatriots. http://edop.thetriangle.org/2003/06/27/patriotact.html Durango bookstore owners fight Patriot Act Peter Schertz and Andrea Avantaggio, owners of Maria’s Bookshop in Durango, are leading a Durango petition drive to spur political support for the Freedom to Read Protection Act (FRPA), the Durango Herald reports. The FRBA would overturn powers of the federal government to obtain customer-purchase and library-usage records, and monitor Internet traffic at public computer terminals without notification or a court order. While the bookshop owners say they have tried to stay apolitical, this issue hits close to home. So far, 300 people have signed the petition, according to the Herald. Other local bookstores have joined the effort and the director of the Durango Public Library is also making the petition available to library patrons. http://www.vailtrail.com/newsdetail.cfm?NewsID=1211 Not a modified bean in the house: the villagers who drove GM out of town 'There are huge risks associated with these crops that are just not worth taking' http://news.independent.co.uk/uk/environment/story.jsp?story=419967 FraudTech's World of Cons, Frauds and Other Lies Within these pages you shall be subjected to the methods used by others to make your life miserable.

But there is progress. One advance has been in the oil industry, which has been revived mainly by US companies, some of them associated with leading Washington politicians. In an exclusive story, Foreign Report reveals a second advance that will affect regional strategies and the USA's position in the Arab/Islamic world. http://www.janes.com/security/international_security/news/fr/fr030625_1_n.shtml IF YOU DON'T THINK THIS WAS PLANNED ALL ALONG, YOU DON'T KNOW THE GLOBALIST HEGELIAN METHODOLOGY. THE AGENDA IS PUSHED BY THE PHONY FRAMED REPUBLICRAT DEBATE AND IT'S SWALLOWED BY THE DUMBED-DOWN MASSES. Calls for international force grow THE White House is coming under pressure from senior Democratic and Republican politicians to approve an international force of up to 60,000 troops for Iraq, including soldiers from countries that opposed the war. Senator Joseph Biden, an influential Democrat on the Senate foreign relations committee, warned yesterday: "I think we need somewhere between 30,000 and 60,000 other troops. "I want to see French, German, I want to see Turkish patches on people’s arms sitting on the street corners, standing there in Iraq," Mr Biden said. "We’ve got to get over this ideological fixation on the part of Mr [defence secretary Donald] Rumsfeld and [vice-president Dick] Cheney of not letting the Europeans and NATO come in." http://www.thescotsman.co.uk/international.cfm?id=712892003 US Senator demands international peacekeeping force in Iraq A prominent US Senator has called for an international force of up to 60,000 troops to stop the continuing violence in Iraq. The most senior Democrat on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Joseph Biden, says the Bush Administration must get over what he calls its "ideological fixation" and invite NATO and European peacekeepers into Iraq. And as the number of American troops killed in Iraq continues to grow, Republican Chuck Hagel says the deaths should be the "jarring gong" for the Administration to seek help. http://www.abc.net.au/am/content/2003/s891175.htm Transcript: Sen. Joseph Biden (D-DE) on Fox News Sunday I want to see French, German, I want to see Turkish patches on people's arms sitting on the street corners, standing there in Iraq. That's one way to communicate to the Iraqi people we are not there as occupiers. The international community is there as liberators. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,90699,00.html YEAH IN A RUSSIAN SAFEHOUSE WITH HIS BUDDY PRIMAKOV US admits Saddam may be alive A top US official signalled Washington believes Saddam Hussein may be alive as US forces launched an operation to crack down on armed resistance blamed on die-hard supporters of the toppled Iraqi leader. "I'm assuming he's still alive, and we will get our hands on him, dead or alive," Paul Bremer, who heads the US-led administration in Iraq, said. http://www.theage.com.au/articles/2003/06/30/1056825310553.html Afghan Insurgents Attack U.S. Troops Insurgents attacked U.S. troops in southeastern Afghanistan, sparking a gunbattle in which American helicopters were called in for strikes, the military said Saturday. About 11,500 coalition troops, most of them Americans, are in Afghanistan carrying out operations against the guerrillas. The Taliban government was toppled in a U.S.-led war in 2001. http://www.newsday.com/news/nationworld/wire/sns-ap-afghan-us-firefight,0,1988387.story?coll=sns-ap-nationworld-headlines "Why are We Still Here?" "What are we getting into here?" asked the sergeant from the U.S. Army's 4th Infantry Division, stationed north of Baghdad. "The war is supposed to be over, but every day we hear of another soldier getting killed. Is it worth it? Saddam isn't in power anymore. The locals want us to leave. Why are we still here?" http://www.washingtondispatch.com/article_5945.shtml Many Iraqis still not won over by U.S. invasion Jassem Alwan Blasim watched his two younger brothers die when an apparently errant U.S. bomb crashed into the street next to a Baghdad market in March. In all more than 70 people were killed. ''I will never forgive the Americans or Saddam Hussein for what happened,'' Blasim said from his electronics shop, seated where he was on that day, just a few metres (yards) from the crater caused by the explosion. http://famulus.msnbc.com/FamulusIntl/reuters06-29-055935.asp?reg=MIDEAST Ministers knew war papers were forged, says diplomat US official who identified documents incriminating Iraq as fakes says Britain must have been aware of findings http://news.independent.co.uk/uk/politics/story.jsp?story=419982 EU stars for UK troops in Congo The government was accused yesterday of moving closer to joining a "Euro army" after British soldiers began an African mission under European Union command, wearing EU insignia. http://news.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2003/06/29/neu29.xml&sSheet=/news/2003/06/29/ixnewstop.html U.S. Army patents chemical/biological agent grenade launcher As antiwar.com is highlighting, according to United States patent 6,523,478: What is claimed is: 1.

Greenpeace said their scheme was meant to be of more practical use to Iraqis than a three dollar per barrel offer from the U.S. Army for the containers, previously used to store low-enriched uranium peroxide powder known as "yellow cake". http://www.underreported.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=1050&mode=thread&order=0&thold=0 Death on the road to Basra The girl is still crying - her name is Sabrina, she is 13 years old.

In my experience, there's not much human about human-resource departments, and zillion-page legal documents detailing ways to enforce patriotism and secure the homeland sound like instruments that might guarantee the opposite effect. http://www.tallahassee.com/mld/democrat/news/opinion/6187494.htm Chinese Activist Indicted on Subversion A Chinese democracy activist detained last year after distributing an appeal for political reform has been indicted on subversion charges and will go on trial next month, a human rights group reported. Former middle school teacher, Zhao Changqing, was charged Wednesday in the western city of Xi'an with "inciting subversion of state power," Human Rights in China said in a faxed statement received in Beijing Saturday.
