The London Catholic Worker marked the 6th. anniversary of the opening of Guantanamo with a vigil at the U.S. embassy, located near Grosvenor Square in central London. To vigil is stay awake; to stay awake to the mainstreaming of torture, to attacks on civil liberties, to our complicity with the CIA kidnapping and rendition flights refueling in England to the U.S. gulag that is Guantanamo. As we enter the 7th. year of the Bush initiated war without end, civil society remains asleep, sedated and silenced in the face of a war that escalates in Iraq and Afghanistan and expands into Lebanon, Somalia, Pakistan and who knows where next? read full story / add a comment

It seems like on the cusp of being real. For the first time in the U.S., a black man has a serious chance of being the next occupant of the White House. Barack Obama won the Democratic caucus in Iowa and finished a strong second to Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire. The centerpiece of his campaign has been the claim that he is the candidate of “hope” and “change” as opposed to the establishment figure Hillary Clinton. He has crowned himself the king of post-racial and post-partisan politics. With the assistance of the corporate media machine, he’s been allowed to capture the imagination and hope of millions of voters, particularly new layers of politicized young people. This includes hope that he has a “realistic” plan to end the Iraq War, that he is not beholden to big business interests and that he’s the candidate of universal healthcare. Obama wants us to believe that he’ll lift up the working poor and save the middle class. read full story / add a comment

Dark tales of babies for breakfast and drugged up doctors on muscle -relaxants racing in dark nights of Belfast operating theatres (in the nineties) provided an evening of food for those inclined to Carteresque tales and shape-shifters of the Danish variety.

As the war escalates and expands and our movement grows, more resisters will be imprisoned. This can either be an experience of great solidarity and empowerment or demoralisation and defeat. A lot of it depends on us on the outside. Consider sending a postcard or solidarity letter to the following prisoners...... read full story / add a comment
