Those on political extremes at Triangle campuses are having trouble coming together to talk about the issues that have divided them since Sept. 11. One side has challenged American policy through anti-war "teach-ins" and panel discussions. In response, supporters of the war in Afghanistan have staged their own rallies and speeches. But for the most part, neither side has turned out to hear what the other has to say. Some teach-in organizers say they'll stay away from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill's Memorial Hall tonight when Los Angeles-based neoconservative David Horowitz takes the stage at 7. "I ...

When Bombs Miss the Mark The owner of a Sudan factory the U.S. destroyed wants his day in court Otis Bilodeau Legal Times November 28, 2001 Salah El Din Ahmed Mohammed Idris wants the United States of America to pay for its mistakes. Idris is the owner of the Sudanese manufacturing plant that U.S. forces bombed to rubble in 1998. Then-President Bill Clinton claimed the facility was cooking chemical weapons and was tied to Osama bin Laden. Idris has strenuously denied these claims. Several investigations and observers suggest Idris is right. U.S. intelligence erred, and the government should pay ...

WASHINGTON: In all but name, the United States is at war with Pakistan. Despite all the protestations about military ruler Gen. Pervez Musharraf’s "bold and courageous stand" and Islamabad’s status as a frontline ally, there is a growing sense in Washington that Pakistan has worked against US interests in Afghanistan. There is also anger in sections of the administration over what is seen as Pakistani perfidy over issues ranging from deployment of its troops, agents and private militia in Afghanistan to its dangerous game of nuclear weapons proliferation. As a result, the Bush administration has begun to quietly punish Pakistan ...

High Court pondering whether government went too far with law aimed at preventing children from viewing online porn By Anne Gearan, Associated Press, 11/28/2001 12:22 WASHINGTON (AP) Congress cannot wall off part of the Internet just because many Americans might think it contains material harmful to children, a lawyer for operators of sexually explicit Web sites argued to the Supreme Court on Wednesday. There is no such thing as an objective nationwide standard to judge what is damaging for youngsters but might have artistic, educational or other value for adults, said American Civil Liberties Union lawyer Ann Beeson. ''A national ...

AIDS activists arrested for threatening, stalking SAN FRANCISCO (AP) -- Police arrested two AIDS activists Wednesday for allegedly stalking and threatening newspaper reporters and Public Health Department workers. David Pasquarelli, 34, and Michael Petrelis, 42, were arrested on suspicion of conspiracy, stalking, terrorist threats and annoying electronic communications, according to San Francisco police.

ACLU supports longtime critic Falwell in property lawsuit against Virginia By Associated Press, 11/28/2001 12:32 LYNCHBURG, Va. (AP) The American Civil Liberties Union offered to support the Rev. Jerry Falwell in his challenge of Virginia laws that restrict how much property a church can own. Though Falwell often chides the activist group, the offer was welcomed by Jerry Falwell Jr., who is representing his father in the case. Falwell Jr. said he hopes other groups also come forward, especially churches. ''It will make more of a statement if other denominations support us,'' the younger Falwell said. The ACLU offered to ...

Spain, U.S. Avoid Clash Over Al Qaeda Suspects November 28, 2001 04:38 P By Steve Holland WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Spain and the United States avoided a potential clash on Wednesday over the possible extradition of eight suspected al Qaeda members to face an American trial for alleged links to the Sept. 11 attacks. Spanish Prime Minister Jose Maria Aznar told President Bush he was willing to study their extradition for trial in the United States if needed, while the White House gave no indication such a request would be coming soon. Bush and Aznar, two like-minded conservatives, held an ...

According to Afghans who fought alongside US special forces, the body of the dead American was found next to a bomb crater in the centre of the prison camp near an arms dump. Commander Omar Latif said: “The body of the American lay on the ground right here by an iron gate. He was definitely killed during the airstrike.” He said that ...

Thank you and thank you for coming, and thanks to Barnes and Noble for hosting this occasion. Hello, okay.

November 28, 2001 THE IMMIGRANTS U.S. Makes It Easier to Detain Foreigners By DAVID FIRESTONE the Justice Department has quietly expanded its power to detain foreigners, letting the government keep a foreigner behind bars even after a federal immigration judge has ordered him to be released for lack of evidence. The change allows the Immigration and Naturalization Service to set aside any release order issued by an immigration judge in cases where the agency says it believes that a foreigner is a danger to the community or a flight risk. To have such a ruling set aside, the service simply ...

Bush supports 'generous but affordable' farm legislation By Philip Brasher, Associated Press, 11/28/2001 18:02 WASHINGTON (AP) President Bush and his agriculture secretary expressed concern Wednesday that crop subsidies in a Senate Democratic farm bill could lead to price-depressing surpluses. Bush said he supports ''generous but affordable'' farm legislation that would provide farmers with an adequate safety net without encouraging them to overproduce. Agriculture Secretary Ann Veneman said the Senate bill would raise subsidy rates as much as 20 percent, which could encourage overproduction and drive down prices. ''This creates pressure for more government payments, thereby creating a self-defeating and ultimately ...

UPDATE 1 - Cuba hails 'knockout' U.N. anti - embargo vote (Updates with Cuban officials' reaction) By Andrew Cawthorne SANTIAGO, Cuba, Nov 28 (Reuters) - Jubilant Cuban officials on Wednesday hailed the United Nations' 10th consecutive vote to condemn the four-decade-old U.S. trade embargo on the Caribbean island as a crucial victory over its political archenemy. "Everyone agrees that yesterday's vote was a knockout blow," Foreign Minister Felipe Perez Roque told Cuban state TV from New York. "It's a triumph that belongs especially to our people and to our commander-in-chief," he said, referring to Fidel Castro. In its annual vote on the issue, the U.N. General Assembly voted ...

The principals of Anne Arundel County's 19 middle schools were given three options yesterday for getting their pupils into physical education and fine arts classes by the second semester, as required by the state. But county educators would rather not do it at all. Moments after giving the principals the freedom to choose what's best for their schools, the county school board voted unanimously to ask the state Board of Education for a waiver from its requirement. Almost two months ago, the state board told Anne Arundel County schools that they were violating state curriculum regulations that require all ...

SEOUL: North Korea on Thursday urged the United States to end its hostile policy toward the communist state, warning that it would take "countermeasures". "We can no longer just sit back. We have no choice but to take countermeasures with the United States persistently raising questions over our human rights record, religion, and demanding an inspection of weapons of mass destruction," a spokesman from its foreign ministry said. The "hostile attitude" of the US government shows it has no intention of entering into dialogue to settle pending issues, even though it declares itself ready for talks without preconditions, the spokesman ...

Airport Safety Regulations by Walter Williams 9/26/2001 SECRETARY of Transportation Norman Y. Mineta, Czar Norman, has ordered new, ill-thought out, oppressive airline regulations in the wake of recent terrorist attacks. Among them: a ban on knives -- plastic or steel -- anywhere in the airport and on airplanes, even in kitchens, no curbside check-in, restricted carry-on luggage, no visitors beyond security checkpoints and who knows what else. Has Czar Norman gone far enough to protect us? I've watched "Investigative Reports" and the "History Channel" documentaries about supermax prisons. Taking away plastic knives is not enough for real security. Knife-like weapons ...

THURSDAY NOVEMBER 29 2001 US targets bin Laden's fortress BY ROLAND WATSON IN WASHINGTON AND MICHAEL EVANS, DEFENCE EDITOR OSAMA BIN LADEN and the Taleban leadership have lost control of their troops, the Pentagon said last night as American forces concentrated on a deep mountain bunker in which they believe the al-Qaeda leader is hiding. The extensive cave complex near the village of Tora Bora, south of Jalalabad, has become the focus of US bombing after the latest American and British intelligence pinpointed it as bin Laden’s hiding place. As opposition forces massed in Jalalabad ready to advance on ...

by Walter Williams Standing in long lines to pass through airport security, I thought: Where's racial and sexual profiling now when it can benefit most, if not all, passengers? You say: "What's wrong with you, Williams? Everybody knows that profiling has been declared racist and sex profiling is no better?" Let's look at profiling as a principle. Suppose you were chief of police seeking to apprehend some unknown gangsters involved in a recent drive-by shooting. Would you instruct your officers to include 80-year-old women as possible suspects to be detained and questioned? You probably wouldn't and why? It's not because ...

EPA chief undergoes grilling in Senate hearing about anthrax cleanup on Capitol Hill By John Heilprin, Associated Press, 11/28/2001 21:19 WASHINGTON (AP) The government's plan to rid the Hart Senate Office Building of deadly anthrax bacteria inspires little confidence, senators with offices there told EPA chief Christie Whitman. ''The Environmental Protection Agency doesn't have very much expertise on this,'' Sen. Pete Domenici, R-N.M., said Wednesday at a hearing on the progress of the cleanup. ''They don't. They need experts.'' Sen. Barbara Mikulski, D-Md., who chaired the hearing, told Whitman the agency should set clear standards for determining when the building ...

High Court Dismisses Affirmative Action Case Justices Say Colo. Firm Shifted Arguments By Charles Lane Washington Post Staff Writer Wednesday, November 28, 2001; Page A03 A once-heralded affirmative action case fizzled out at the Supreme Court yesterday when the justices unanimously dismissed -- without ruling on it -- a Colorado company's claim that a federal highway contracting program designed to help minority enterprises was a form of unconstitutional racial discrimination.

When Russia failed to offer meaningful cuts, as it did last week (and is likely to do again), it was branded as a spoiler, merely carrying on the ruinous traditions of Soviet-era brinkmanship. This view is leading public opinion down the wrong path. In fact, Russia is practicing what the West grew hoarse in preaching: grow wealthy by maximizing profits, not manipulating prices. It is a rich irony that Russia is now a paragon of competitive oil capitalism, while OPEC and its minions, Norway and Mexico, plod along with socialist-style oil production and a lack of fiscal prudence. Russia's ...

. . . In war it is often easier to know whom one is fighting than what one is fighting. Even World War II, seemingly a model of clarity in the matter of enemies, was more obscure than is commonly taught. That the Allies were fighting Germans and their proxies, everyone knew. But what was the enemy? Nazism? Hitlerism? Prussian militarism? A return in wrath of Germany’s Griff nach der Weltmacht, the drive for world power that had failed in 1914–18? Defining the enemy made a difference not only in terms of the peace the Allies would seek, but in ...

U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth set a trial date of Dec. 3 for Norton and Assistant Secretary of Indian Affairs Neal McCaleb to show why they should not be held in contempt.

Caucasus, Nov 28, 2001 -- (Glasnost Foundation) GEORGIA Georgian President Edward Shevardnadze warned that the unsettled Abkhaz problem cerates a dangerous situation that risks further escalation in which "the developments might get out of control". He cited a refugee forum recently held in Kutaisi city, where thousands of refugees from Abkhazia demanded urgent measures to solve the problem and secure their return to their homes. Shevardnadze said he is not requesting an immediate resumption of Georgian-Abkhaz negotiations, but noted that some steps in this direction must be taken right now, before it was too late.

Mary Robinson, the current holder, has not shied away from criticising western powers as well. Last month she called for a halt in the bombing of Afghanistan to allow humanitarian aid in. And she questioned the legality of Nato's bombing of Yugoslavia in 1999. Earlier this year she announced she would not seek a second term in office. She was frustrated by the lack of clout and resources at her disposal. She reversed her decision a few weeks ...

Why does this give me sleepless nights? Because after the Soviet Union collapsed and we gave billions of $$ to the Russians in an effort to help them stabilize their nation, the Russians developed a biological weapons warhead that was refrigerated. It was made to deliver weaponized blackpox which the Russians had been developing for decades.
If you want to read about it, find the book, The Devil In The Freezer. It's revelations about Russian evil will curdle your blood.
