Downing Street "Memo" - online
The Downing Street "Memo" is actually a document containing meeting minutes transcribed during the British Prime Minister's meeting on July 23, 2002—a full eight months PRIOR to the invasion of Iraq on March 20, 2003. The Times of London printed the text of this document on Sunday, May 1, 2005, but to date US media coverage has been limited.
Ok, so the UK press actually printed this, and Blair was still voted in??!!?... WTF is going on over there!?

Goodbye Superman
Goodbye Superman
I remember watching Superman when I was a little kid. Having dreams that I too could fly and fight evil.
I'm very sad to see Chris go. He was a true inspiration, in and out of tights.

Palestinians gather to see a lamb born with what looked like 'Allah' spelled out in Arabic on its coat in the West Bank city of Hebron.
The lamb said it was quite enjoying the limelight and is not at all 'Allah'med by all the media publicity .

While we have your attention, Mr President...
Tuesday November 18, 2003
The Guardian
It's not often that we get the chance to speak directly to the most powerful man in the world. So as George Bush lands in Britain for his first state visit, we asked 60 Brits and Americans to make the most of it
A collection of personal letters from a very interesting list of people, including The pilot falsely accused of aiding the September 11 terrorists, Frederick Forsyth, Salam Pax The Baghdad Blogger, Benjamin Zephaniah, Anita Roddick
60 letters to George Bush (part one)
Dear President Bush,
The child who has lost his arms
thought he was catching a ball
when the bomb his enemies dropped
bounced through his dapper hall.
Look at him here in his bed
washed by the camera glare:
the world must know what happened,
and show how truly it cares.
Was it in fact his foes
who threw this thing in his house?
Or was it perhaps his friends -
hence their exceptional fuss?
Guilt is the great disguiser,
blacking the white of the sun.
One thing we know for sure:
the ball goes bouncing on.

U.S break Geneva Convention
Collective Punishment for Downing Black Hawk?
Fox News reported on Friday, Nov. 7, 2003 from Tikrit, Iraq:
"The U.S. military swept through Iraqi neighborhoods early Saturday, firing at houses suspected to be harboring hostile forces in the wake of an apparent attack on a Black Hawk helicopter that killed six U.S. soldiers."
Geneva Convention Clearly states in:
Art. 33. No protected person may be punished for an offence he or she has not personally committed. Collective penalties and likewise all measures of intimidation or of terrorism are prohibited.
Pillage is prohibited.
Reprisals against protected persons and their property are prohibited
Art. 53. Any destruction by the Occupying Power of real or personal property belonging individually or collectively to private persons, or to the State, or to other public authorities, or to social or cooperative organizations, is prohibited, except where such destruction is rendered absolutely necessary by military operations.
All Articles from the 4th Geneva Convention: http://www.icrc.org/ihl.nsf/7c4d08d9b287a42141256739003e636b/6756482d86146898c125641e004aa3c5?OpenDocument

Bush faces fiery welcome
This Wednesday Guy Fawkes will share his perch on bonfires with a man who, his critics say, poses as great a danger as the 17th-century conspirator once did.

Jessica Lynch hoax
This was the story of a young, frightened soldier, not a combat heroine;
of doctors, nurses and hospital administrators who did all they could
possibly do and more to save and care for their foreign "guest", towards
whom Arab custom would demand generous hospitality.

'Suiciders'
I think George Bush just coined a new word for the suicide bombers (I call them suicide bombers) terrorizing the Middle East. In his press conference, he called them "suiciders." I thought it was a slip and then he called them that again. "Suiciders."
