World Social Forum activists rail against Bush | ||
2005-01-29 | ||
In the run-up to historic elections to choose a new Iraqi government, activists burned an effigy of US President George W Bush, railing against the occupation of Iraq amid doubts American troops will ever leave the country. Tens of thousands of leftist and left-leaning activists from around the world at the World Social Forum are convinced Saturday's election won't bring democracy and that American soldiers face a permanent stay in Iraq to influence the region and ensure a steady flow of oil. "The US will stay there to dominate the Middle East," Brazilian artist Jairo Silva said before an anti-Bush march on the third day of the social forum, held to protest the World Economic Forum under way in Davos, Switzerland. He added: "They'll stay there because the oil's there and so American companies can get all the contracts to rebuild a country America destroyed." The fifth annual social forum has drawn tens of thousands of

#20 How can we disbeleive them when they have a Girl named " Pornpen " spealing for them? I mean that name alone brings credibility and gravitas to them! " surprised that many Americans support the killing of US soldiers as a legitimate move to oust the occupying power." They are called Traitors - and deserve to hang. |

In the meantime, anybody got a good source for 10-gauge #1 buckshot? From the looks of that parade, I need about eight cases... |

#15 "They’ll stay there because the oil’s there and so American companies can get all the contracts to rebuild a country America destroyed." As the rabid twit jumps into his petro fueled vehicle after the ankle biter festivities. |

#13 The thing that gets me about those raving lunatics is their hypocrisy. Those people do not give a shit about the Iraqi people. They never wanted to save the latter when Saddam was killing them by the thousands but now they are all heart. Those vermin do not give a flying F*** about people dying unless they can use their deaths to further their utopian agendas or their virulent anti-americanism. I think I am beginning to like the terrorists more then those idiots. |

#10 Apparently your "relevance" meter didn't even register, or you would have provided it. Ya do have to "love" these people who hold their "conference" in "southern Brazil" to "protest the World Economic Forum under way in Davos, Switzerland." |

#7 This is really excellent news: Thousands of enemy agents and terror-shills from all over the world publicly identify themselves in the foolish belief that Fidel Castro, Arab money, and media shielding can protect them forever from the just consequences of their actions. |

#6 "Sammi Alaa, a leader of the Iraqi Patriotic Alliance group supporting the resistance, said he expected social forum activists would be sympathetic, but was surprised that many Americans support the killing of US soldiers as a legitimate move to oust the occupying power. 'There are a lot of Americans here and when I take the microphone and explain the Iraqi resistance, they come up to me afterward and say they agree with me,' said Alaa, an Iraqi who lives in Denmark. "Hi, Mr. Alaa, groovy speech and all, man. Meet my new friend, Gideon Phoenix." DEATH TO TERRORISTS! DEATH TO TRAITORS! DEATH TO MEDIA SHILLS! |

#4 We are on the verge of a great revolution, but not the kind these authoritarian media-cultists pretend to seek. It will be a revolution against the authoritarians themselves, against their culture, their media, their place of power in the world. The outlines of this revolution are only dimly visible now, as was the outline of the First World War, say, 100 years ago in 1905. They will be crystal clear after the fact, though, in, say, 20 years. In a thousand years, the Institutional Media Culture of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries will be studied and analyzed as a puzzling but horrible relic, long since having taken its place alongside the Spanish Inquisition and the Divine Right of Kings in the dustbin of history. |
