Manifestaciones en el sexto aniversario de la invasión del Irak
Josh 08 Apr 2009 20:09 GMT (translated by Josh)El 19 Marzo ya marca seis años de la ocupación del Irak por los EE.UU. Durante esta semana han pasado manifestaciones en todo el país, mostrando el escándalo de esta guerra y su destrucción continual, conectando con ella la ganancia de las corporaciones domésticas, la desigualdad, y el racismo. Unos eventos en el sabado 21 Marzo fueron presentados por la coalición ANSWER (acta ya paralizar la guerra y acabar con el racismo), coincidiendo con una marcha al Pentágono en Washington. [El Pentágono es la oficina central del departamento de la defensa estadunidense.] Marchantes también pasaron por la administración de veteranos y quatro compañías que están profitando directamente de la guerra.[Read Report]

Con miras al futuro, una memorial nacional fue lanzado en Olympa, WA, el 20 Marzo. En las meses que vienen, el intento es construir memoriales en ciudades diversas, conmemorando las víctimas civiles por agresiones de los EE.UU. En el noreste, grupos anti-guerra se unen para parar la comercialización de la guerra en una shopping gigantesca en Pennsylvania.

why do you deny peace when your education of hate always chooses the losing side of policy as a favor to your devils advocate postures.....
And there’s a lot of talk now also about a green-collar economy.

I think that’s very important, but one of the reasons that it’s important to ban derivative trading is the investment banks are salivating over a green-collar economy, and that needs to be explained why, because they are—have set up trading desks. It’s estimated that carbon trading, the idea of trading in pollution rights, in ten years will be larger than all energy markets combined. So they’re looking to make a killing off of it. They’ll create derivative instruments, and this will just create another bubble. So we need to be now thinking about clearly exactly what to do to put in progressive ideas and to prevent this disaster from happening again.
