>>> "Our emperor says that
we are not occupiers, yet we show no inclination to
relinquish the country of Iraq to its people. Those
who have dared to expose the nakedness of the Administration's
policies in Iraq have been subjected to scorn. Those
who have noticed the elephant in the room -- that is,
the fact that this war was based on falsehoods
have had our patriotism questioned. Those who have spoken
aloud the thought shared by hundreds of thousands of
military families across this country, that our troops
should return quickly and safely from the dangers half
a world away, have been accused of cowardice. We have
then seen the untruths, the dissembling, the fabrication,
the misleading inferences surrounding this rush to war
in Iraq wrapped quickly in the flag." Senator
Robert Byrd. October 17. The Emperor has no clothes.

"Before the war, week after week after week after
week, we were told lie after lie after lie after lie.
And now, despite the increasingly restless Iraqi population,
despite the continuing talk of sabotage, despite the
foreign terrorists crossing thousands of miles of border
to attack U.S. servicemen and women in Iraq, the Administration
still refuses to face the truth or tell the truth. Instead
the White House responds by covering up its failures
and trying to sell its rosy version of events by repeating
it with maximum frequency and volume, and minimum regard
for realities on the ground. "

"...at the White House, the subject of terrorism
now means the subject of our invasion of Iraq. The President
waves the bloody shirt of 9-11 and then subtly shifts
the conversation to Iraq. The only problem is that the
President's attempts to tie Saddam Hussein to the 9-11
attacks have no basis in fact. By speaking of al Qaeda
in one breath, and Iraq in the next, he has devised
a construct for confusing the American people about
the real threat to our country. And his strategy has
worked: according to a recent Washington Post poll,
seven in ten Americans believe that Saddam Hussein is
behind the September 11 attacks." Senator Robert
Byrd. September 10th. More...
>>> "We are told
and have been on a daily basis since September 11 that
the peoples of the Middle East are our enemies, that
they are terrorists with no regard for human life, and
that they hate us for our freedom and for our Christian
values. The fact that this fiction has gained such wide
acceptance by the American public is puzzling, given
the that in recent years a good portion of the population
had developed a healthy sense of skepticism with regards
to a government and media which they knew couldnt
be trusted. Adding to this puzzling situation is the
fact that these same skeptics came to understand with
equal clarity that the real threat posed to America
came not from without, but rather from within."

"Does it really come as a surprise to anyone that
many of our allies are reluctant to commit their own
troops to the aftermath of a pre-emptive war, considering
how the Administration tried to bully them during our
headlong rush to war against Iraq? While the White House
was furiously trying to twist arms in Berlin, Paris,
Ankara, and Moscow to gain acquiescence to a war in
Iraq, millions took to the streets to protest the President's
policy toward Iraq." Senator Robert Byrd,

There are many sources for news and views about what's
going on in the Middle East and what's ahead. Some followers
of Pat Robertson's 700 Club are looking at weather patterns.
The Christian Broadcasting Network reported that May's
damaging tornados were a repercussion of U.S. pressure
on Israel that put the "covenant lands of Israel
at risk." According to CBN, a researcher has proven
that "when Israeli settlements are touched, there
are also occurrences of hurricanes, tornados, and major
problems in the American economy." CHRISTIAN

"Bush and Sharon know perfectly well what awaits
them by letting go of the wolf's ears. They realize
that despite whatever promises are made by their victims
to "forgive and forget" that nevertheless
memories of people being killed by occupying armies
(whether in Iraq or in Palestine) will override any
sense of amnesia which their oppressors hoped their
victims would develop." Grabbing the world by

" We can imagine that it in the end it may look
something like this: They stood before him on Judgment
Day, expecting a "king's reward" in Heaven.
They had spent their lives professing his name, driving
out demons and performing many miracles, and therefore,
should, in their estimation, be first in line for their
heavenly inheritance. We can only imagine their surprise
when they heard the following". The Mark of

"The fundamental question that is nagging at many
is this: How reliable were the claims of this President
and key members of his Administration that Iraq's weapons
of mass destruction posed a clear and imminent threat
to the United States, such a grave threat that immediate
war was the only recourse?" Senator Robert Byrd,
