2007-10-23 18:23 America's war without end
By Simon Tisdall (THE GUARDIAN, 23/10/07): Planned US spending on the "global war on terror" is set to rise sharply in the coming year, despite claims from the president, George Bush, that al-Qaida is on the run in Iraq. A funding request sent to Congress this week seeks $196.4bn (£96bn) for counter-terrorism in 2007-8, $25bn up on this year. The Pentagon's separate budget request amounts to an additional $481.4bn. Justifying these whopping increases, Mr Bush repeats a favourite mantra, that "Am …

By Tom Malinowski, Washington advocacy director of Human Rights Watch (THE WASHINGTON POST, 21/10/07): In 1988, the people of Burma launched a nonviolent struggle for democracy and were met with gunfire. I was working for Sen. Pat Moynihan, about the only prominent American to notice then what was happening in that isolated country.

2007-10-19 19:30 What Happened To The Boycott Initiative
Nothing. Plain and simple. The initiative was just not getting the good press that it needed. I'm thinking it's just not as popular as other people wanted it to be. It's hardly a hot topic. I don't see any major headlines about it. But why The greater majority of people around the world seem to understand the logic. I wouldn't go as far as saying people love the Olympics more than they care about what's going on in Myanmar. But I would definitely say people don't see China had a hand in any of t …
