The failed US face of Fallujah

With a few notable exceptions, the media have accepted the recent virtual news blackout in Fallujah. The ongoing fighting in the city, especially in "cleared" neighborhoods, is proving an embarrassment and so, while military spokesmen continue to announce American casualties, they now come not from the city itself but, far more vaguely, from "al-Anbar province", of which the city is a part.

Suit challenging results of election thrown out

OHIO

12/17/2004

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - The Ohio Supreme Court's chief justice Thursday threw out a challenge to the state's presidential election results.

A lawyer for the 40 voters who sued said he would refile the challenge as early as today.

Chief Justice Thomas Moyer ruled that the request improperly challenged two separate election results. Ohio law only allows one race to be challenged in a single complaint, he said.

The challenge was backed by the Rev. Jesse Jackson and Cliff Arnebeck, a Columbus attorney for the Massachusetts-based Alliance for Democracy, who accused President Bush's campaign of "high-tech vote stealing."

Without listing specific evidence, the complaint alleges that 130,656 votes for Sen. John F. Kerry, D-Mass., in 36 counties were somehow switched to count for Bush.

Silent Genocide

"After the Americans destroyed our village and killed many of us, we also lost our houses and have nothing to eat. However, we would have endured these miseries and even accepted them, if the Americans had not sentenced us all to death." Before the damage we inflict grows greater, before history's judgment gets worse, before we contaminate the whole world - even before we vote in the next election - we must stop what we're doing. We must stop now.

It's time to listen for a moment not to defense analysts briefing officers, pols or pundits, but to people like Jooma Khan, a grandfather who lives in a village in Laghman Province, in northeastern Afghanistan, who is quoted above. Surely he deserves 30 seconds of our undivided attention. "When I saw my deformed grandson," he told an interviewer in March of 2003, "I realized that my hopes of the future have vanished for good. (This is) different from the hopelessness of the Russian barbarism, even though at that time I lost my older son Shafiqullah. This time, however, I know we are part of the invisible genocide brought on us by America, a silent death from which I know we will not escape."

We're waging war-plus in Afghanistan and Iraq - in effect, nuclear war, with our widespread use of depleted-uranium-tipped shells and missiles. This is no secret. DU, with its extraordinary penetrating power and explode-on-impact capability, helps assure our military dominance everywhere we go. But people like Jooma Khan and his grandson reap its toxic legacy.

So, of course, do our own troops.

Kahn's words are only a sliver of the damning testimony contained in the documents of the International Criminal Tribunal for Afghanistan, a Japanese citizens' initiative that recently concluded its two-year inquiry into the first phase of the Bush Administration's war on terror. But they say everything that we cannot hear. If we could hear Jooma Khan, and others who are sounding the alarm about DU, such as former Livermore Labs geologist Leuren Moret, who testified at the tribunal, there would not be mere thousands of people in the streets of American cities demanding that we stop the war, but hundreds of thousands, or millions - the sort of numbers that turn out inother parts of the world.

The use of DU weaponry is not the extent of our criminalirresponsibility in Afghanistan and Iraq, which led to the tribunal's guilty verdict against George Bush on charges of war crimes, but it's the most chilling. (You can check out the full report at, among other places, http://www.mindfully.org/Reform/2004/Afghanistan-Criminal-Tribunal10mar04.htm)

As Moret testified, depleted uranium turns into a infinitesimally fine dust after it explodes; individual particles are smaller than a virus or bacteria. And, "It is estimated that one millionth of a gram accumulating in a person's body would be fatal. There are no known methods oftreatment."

And DU dust is everywhere. A minimum of 500 or 600 tons now litter Afghanistan, and several times that amount are spread across Iraq. In terms of global atmospheric pollution, we've already released the equivalent of 400,000 Nagasaki bombs, Moret said.The numbers are overwhelming, but the potential horrors only get worse. DU dust does more than wreak havoc on the immune systems of those who breathe or touch it; the substance also alters one's genetic code.

Thus, birth defects are way up in Afghanistan since the invasion: children "born with no eyes, no limbs, tumors protruding from their mouths ...deformed genitalia," according to the tribunal report. This ghastly toll on the unborn - on the future - has led investigators to coin the term "silent genocide" to describe the effects of this horrific weapon.

The Pentagon's response to such charges is denial, denial, denial. And the American media is its moral co-conspirator.

But blame is beside the point. Surely even those who still await "conclusive proof" that DU is the cause, or a factor, in the mystery illnesses and birth defects emanating from the war zones, can see the logic in halting its use now.

Please sign the Iraq Peace Petition

Each day brings more stories of bombings, kidnappings, and death in Iraq. As the occupation rolls on with no end in sight, more and more ordinary Iraqis question our intentions in their country. To continue down the current path of military occupation and dominance will only invite more violence.

It's time to change course in Iraq. It's time to bring the troops home.

Please take a moment to sign the Iraq Peace Petition. Tell the President that we've had enough of body bags and maimed children.

The petition will be delivered on the morning after the inauguration. It says:

Mr. President:
We urge you to end this war now. Iraq belongs to the Iraqi people. War is the wrong path. Too many lives have been lost already -- let our troops come home.

Support for the war continues to ebb. Help us build the momentum for peace.

Sign the petition and pass it along to your friends:

A nation demands the right to exist

The Inuit peoples of the Arctic have launched a dramatic legal action against America. The charge? That US emissions of greenhouse gases have made their very survival impossible

GLOBAL WARMING AND HUMAN RIGHTS - Oread Daily

The United States is about to be charged with human rights violations for contributing substantially to global warming.

The Inuit, whose homeland stretches from the northeastern tip of Russia across Alaska and northern Canada to parts of Greenland, plan to seek a ruling from the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights saying that the actions of the US are threatening their existence.

The Inuit plan is part of a broader shift in the debate over human- caused climate change evident among participants in the 10th round of international talks taking place in Buenos Aires aimed at averting dangerous human interference with the climate system. Inuit leaders said they planned to announce the effort at the climate meeting today. Representatives of poor countries and communities -- from the Arctic fringes to the atolls of the tropics to the flanks of the Himalayas -- say they are imperiled by rising temperatures and seas through no fault of their own. They are casting the issue as no longer simply an environmental problem but as an assault on their basic human rights.

Such a petition could have decent prospects now that industrial countries, including the United States, have concluded in recent reports and studies that warming linked to heat-trapping smokestack and tailpipe emissions is contributing to big environmental changes in the Arctic, a number of experts said. Last month, an assessment of Arctic climate change by 300 scientists for the eight countries with Arctic territory, including the United States, concluded that "human influences" are now the dominant factor.

Sheila Watt-Cloutier, elected chair of the Inuit Circumpolar Conference (ICC), says the biggest fear was not that warming would kill individuals but that it would be the final blow to a sturdy but suffering culture. "We've had to struggle as a people to keep afloat, to keep our indigenous wisdom and traditions. We're an adaptable people, but adaptability has its limits…Something is bound to give, and it's starting to give in the Arctic, and we're sending that early warning signal to the rest of the world."

Chief Gary Harrison of the Arctic Athabaskan Council, said: "Our homes are threatened by storms and melting permafrost, our livelihoods are threatened by changes to the plants and animals we harvest. Even our lives are threatened, as traditional travel routes become more dangerous."

Attorneys from Earthjustice and the Center for International Environmental Law (CIEL) are working with the Inuit Circumpolar Conference to file the petition.

Donald Goldberg, a senior attorney from CIEL said at the Conference, "Climate change is a human rights concern on an unprecedented scale. It poses an immediate danger for Inuit and other Arctic inhabitants, but millions of people in mountain areas, low-lying island and coastal regions, and other vulnerable parts of the world will soon face similar threats."

"Protecting human rights is the most fundamental responsibility of governments," said Martin Wagner, International Program managing attorney for Earthjustice. "Climate change is threatening the health, culture, and livelihoods of the Inuit. It is the responsibility of the United States, as the largest source of greenhouse gases, to take immediate action to protect the rights of the Inuit and others around the world."

The Arctic is warming much more rapidly than previously known, at nearly twice the rate as the rest of the globe, according to the Arctic Climate Impact Assessment (ACIA), a four-year scientific study conducted by an international team of 300 scientists under the direction of a high-level intergovernmental forum including the United States. Increasing greenhouse gases from human activities are projected to make the Arctic warmer still, according to this unprecedented report.

The Inter-American Human Rights Commission (IAHRC) is an agency of the Organization for American States, of which the US is a member. The Inuit have a voice in the OAS - and thus the commission - through Canada, where they have their own immense and partly autonomous territory of Nunavut, covering 1.9 million square kilometers, a fifth of Canada. But although the IAHRC can issue findings, recommendations, and rulings, it is not a court, and the US has predictably indicated it will not consider itself bound by anything that emerges.

But a ruling could be the basis for lawsuits. If the Inuit gain a ruling that their human rights have been violated, it could form the basis of a case against the US government in an international court, or class-action suits in the US against the government or US energy companies, akin to the suits which have led to multibillion-dollar judgments against the tobacco companies.

One Inuit community of nearly 600 people in the Alaskan barrier island of Shishmaref faces becoming the world's first "global warming refugees". The permafrost on which their homes were built has melted and the ice that used to stop waves reaching the shore has nearly disappeared. Joe Braach, the headteacher of Shishmaref school, says: "When I moved here, the sea was 40ft (12m) from the house. Now it's about 10ft (3m)." Storms have destroyed some of the homes and the community now has little option but to move to the mainland, at a cost of $400m.

Time has come for precautionary policies to reduce exposures from power-frequency EMFs

Microwave News is back!

Last September I attended the International Scientific Conference on Childhood Leukemia in London. At the end of the weeklong meeting, I was convinced, more than ever, that the time has come for precautionary policies to reduce exposures from power-frequency EMFs.

On further reflection, I realized that the reason simple and low-cost measures have yet to be adopted has less to do with resistance from the electric utility industry (what else would one expect?) than from the public health community.

Mike Repacholi of the World Health Organization¹s (WHO) International EMF Project, has been the #1 foot-dragger. Last month, he released a draft ³Precautionary Framework² with a case study on ELF EMFs. This came close to two years after Repacholi and his assistant Leeka Kheifets endorsed applying the Precautionary Principle to control EMF cancer risks --but they then quickly flip-flopped and withdrew the proposal. Sad to say, they have turned their small corner of the WHO into an industry outpost.

All the excuses not to protect children used by Repacholi, Kheifets and others at health agencies in the US and the UK are bogus. It¹s all explained in a special issue of Microwave News, now posted on our Web site: http://www.microwavenews.com/headlines.html#whoppemf

Subject: WHO dragging its feet on precautionary principle
To: "Louis Slesin, Microwave News" info@microwavenews.com

Louis: Canada Mortgage and Housing Corp is also dragging its feet! They ordered a study of EMF levels in Canadian Housing in 1995 and never published it when it came out in 1996! When ELF magnetic fields were classified 2B, I convinced them to give me a copy: they hired me to do a summary which was suppposed to be published as a research highlight, but they still haven't published it.

However, research head Jim Robar authorized me to publish it in my magazine in Dec. 2001. It can be of great use to many, but it's in French: http://www.21esiecle.qc.ca/CEMcanadiennes.htm

Original author Andrew Michrowski still has not been paid for his work. He's at pacenet@canada.com . He found very high levels in children's bedrooms. Quebec may have the highest exposure rates in the world as more than 70% of homes use electric heat. Grounding on the water main is a big problem, especially with net current circulating in urban row-house developments. Andrew's paper shows simple ways to reduce exposure. I'm still putting pressure on CMHC: Researcher Christopher Ives cives@cmhc-schl.gc.ca , who hired Andrew, is a good guy, but his boss Robar no longer returns my calls. Seems utilities put too much pressure on him, but as Andrew says, their power lines are rarely the main cause of the problem. Wiring erros by electricians are the main cause!

ICNIRP hopes to accomplish to lead the Russians down right to their scientific slaughterhouse

Important message from France

In the below informative message from Jean-Pierre Lentin take special note about what is mentioned about ICNIRP's Bernard Veyret. This is especially interesting as Veyret will be "guiding" the so-called French/Russian series of studies to verify (or not) the validity of the Russian RF Standards, (and therefore ICNIRP's as well). As I mention in my report on the Russian cell phone conference the credibility of ICNIRP is also at stake in these studies. Allowing ICNIRP to "guide" this research effort I would call a BIAS of the highest order.

All the more reason that Section III of my report
http://www.emfacts.com/papers/moscow_conf.pdf is taken up as a requirement by the Russian RF scientific community. This is a recommendation that an independent oversight committee be formed to monitor the progress of the research. I have previously suggested this to the RNCNIRP. Whether that translates into firm action remains to be seen.

In my opinion what ICNIRP hopes to accomplish with these studies is to lead the Russians down the garden path right to their scientific slaughterhouse. And then the main threat to ICNIRP's version of "science" is eliminated.

IT IS VITAL THAT THE JOINT FRENCH/RUSSIAN STUDIES BE INDEPENDENTLY MONITORED TO KEEP THE BASTARDS HONEST! Pass it on!

Don Maisch



Dear Don,

I am currently reading Alexander and Ann Shulgin's "PIHKAL", originally published in 1991, a book about their life of research on psychedelic drugs, with no obvious connection with EMF health issues, except this interesting "factoid" :

In year 1966, Alexander Shulgin, a chemistry researcher, was briefly employed by an American military facility, the San Carlos Aerospace Laboratory, at Sunnyvale, California.

This is his account of top-secret on-going research projects at the time :

"Here were arcane projects such as black membrane dynamics, and studies of the influence of gravity on plant growth, the relationships between magnetic fields and the blood-brain barrier, and the effects of radiation on fertility. All were intriguing studies, and all were being run in well equipped laboratories by extremely competent scientists."

Until now, the earliest references found for American military research about EMF effect on blood-brain barrier were 1972 or 1974.

Now, we find that this subject of research was already being studied in 1966 !

Apparently, the American army knows a lot of things about EMF effects on health, things that are still not revealed today...

Well, while I'm at it, here are a few infos on what's happening in France and elsewhere on the "frontline" of EMF & health issues.

Mobile phone operators in France have filed a judiciary complaint against two notorious French anti-masts activists, Etienne Cendrier and Annie Lobe, demanding incredible sums... As French justice is pretty slow, these trials will probably happen within the next year (2005). The activists are being pursued for declarations they have made to the press, so it seems to me that this is in clear violation of freedom of expression rights. Ever an optimist, I think this complaint will not be upheld by the judges, and that this "gagging" strategy from the mobile phone operators will turn out to be viewed as a very bad idea, and seriously tarnish their reputation. We will see...

I must add that Annie Lobe herself did file a complaint against French scientist Bernard Veyret, who heads the "biology commission" at ICNIRP (although he is a physicist !!!). Veyret may be viewed as the "French Michael Repacholi", i.e. the reassuring expert who constantly downplays, in official reports and media communication, all independant research about EMF health-risks. Now, unfortunately, I seriously doubt that Annie's action will be followed by the judges, for lack of scientific evidence, despite the encouraging message she received from W. Ross Adey shortly before his death...

We have a lot of "cancer clusters" in France, linked to mobile phone masts, but despite the valiant efforts of several citizens associations, the plight of those poor people is not being seriously considered by public health authorities. And things won't change in the near future, as our new "health czar" (i.e. director of the "Delegation Generale de la Sante", the top health public institution in France), nominated last year, is none other than Dr. William Dab, who headed for years the "medical department" of EDF (French national electricity distribution), and repeatedly said you can live safely under a high-voltage line...

Right now, the top independant scientific website on EMF health risks in France is <http://csifcem.free.fr/>http://csifcem.free.fr/. Most of their material is in French, but they have several English translations, and I strongly suggest a visit to their pages. These people (Richard Gautier, PhD, Roger Santini, PhD, Pierre Le Ruz, PhD, and Daniel Oberhausen, PhD) are the best French independant experts on EMF & health. They published a "white book" last year on mobile phone health risks, which caused quite a stir.

I might add that my own book, "Ces ondes qui tuent, ces ondes qui soignent" (Waves that kill, waves that heal), on EMF & health, has been republished as a pocket book last May, and has sold so far about 20 000 to 30 000 units, which is a nice figure for France, and makes me one of the most outspoken opponents of EMF pollution in France. Unfortunately there is no English translation. The only abroad publishing so far is.... an Arabic translation !

A more exotic note to finish. My ex-wife, who's a TV documentary director and who did with me a 52 minutes documentary on EMF health risks, "Ces ondes qui nous entourent / Mit Strahlung in die Zukunft), aired on French-German TV channel Arte in 2002, is now a fervent Tibetan Buddhist and is traveling a lot in India. A few weeks ago, she was in the Myrik monastery, in north-eastern India, the world leading center for the Changpa Kagyu school of Tibetan Buddhism. And she was horrified to find that a mobile phone base station is being built on the roof of the "retreat center", i.e. the place where dozens of young Buddhist converts, coming from from all the world, will spent four years in isolation and prayer in order to become Buddhist monks or nuns. That means they will live for 4 years, 24 hours a day, under a phone mast ! We are right now setting up a campaign to have the masts relocated to a safer place. Stay in tune !

Well, that's it for today. Of course, all these informations may be posted on the list, if you wish.

Warm Regards

My comment: ICNIRP should not be allowed at all to interfere with the russian research, I don't understand why the russians agree to this - would the ICNIRP agree that the russians evaluate their flawed papers? Before the ICNIRP "monitor" anything, their own conflicts of interests needs to be monitored. Veyret himself is involved with deep conflict of interests in France. He is the one who should be judged in court, and not people who expose truth.

--------

May I react to Jean-Pierre Lentin's mail, dated Dec 17, about what is happening in France, in which my name was quoted, but associated with some incorrect information. I wish Jean-Pierre had asked me before sending out this mail, or had at least sent me a copy of it right away, which unfortunately he didn't do.

The complaint I filed is against Bernard Veyret and Rene de Seze. Both of them made scientific communications in 1991 and 1995, recognizing and even explaining the specific effects of EMF in great details, even though they now deny them. The complaint is based on their own scientific documents, as well as on prooves of their financial links with Motorola and consorts.

If the Russian knew about all that, they probably would'nt accept what is being proposed to them.

The judge seemed interested. He let me know he would upheld the complaint after a certain event takes place, which I unfortunately cannot mention. The question is, when ?

All of us are concerned by Veyret's lies, for he is a leading member of ICNIRP, OMS and DG XIII's European Commission, the three of which are responsible for producing "protection" standards and recommendations that make so many people ill all around the world.

Should any of you be willing to file such a complaint in your own country, I'd be glad to let you have the necessary documents (most of them are in French, you will probably have to pay for a certified translation).

Shortly before Ross Adey's death, I spoke to him on the phone, asking if he was aware of what I'd just had a confirmation to : the extremely low frequency of 16 Hz is present in the European GSM. He told me that he knew about that.

Some of you probably know the studies of Ross Adey and Carl Blackman about the calcium ion efflux that takes place at 16 Hz.

Several measurements on a mobile phone during the communcation, with professional instruments, showed not only 16 Hz, but every harmonics (multiple) of 8 Hz, up to 500 Hz. This means that not only 16 Hz, but other frequencies that may provoke this calcium ion efflux, are emitted.

The question is, why ? Probably because of the "american and japanese" electronical components, as per a scientist who participated the the GSM working group more than 20 years ago.

Anyway, I've been lead to interesting findings about the causal link between the calcium ion efflux caused by certain particular frequenciesand the micro-wave syndrom, as well as other diseases such as cancer, Alzheimer's desease, diabetes, depression and insomnia.

This scientific data is currently being examined by several experienced seekers. I didn't intend to speak up on the public scene before their validation, but I have to do it now, because of Jean-Pierre Lentin's mail. It's a few months too early but now, you are aware of what is about to happen.

Should some of you want to propose help, I'd be very glad to receive it.

Truly yours,

Call for a global ban on the brutal practice of shark finning

It's too barbaric to imagine, but it happens everyday. Fishermen catch a shark, slice off its fins, and cast it back into the water to bleed a slow, painful death. What's worse, this practice has accelerated in recent years, driven by increased demand for shark fin soup in Asia, where it's considered a delicacy. But you can help:
http://www.care2.com/go/z/19550

Shark finning is pushing the species dangerously close to extinction, with shark numbers down roughly 90% since the 1950s. But the oceans cannot thrive without predator species. Indeed, sharks play a critical role in maintaining the health of our marine ecosystems.

But there's reason for hope. Last month, the 63 nations that comprise the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT) approved a binding U.S. proposal to ban shark finning in the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea. This is a big step forward, as it's the first time there has been a multilateral effort to ban this cruel practice on the open seas.

We must not lose momentum! Urge U.S. officials to pursue a global ban on shark finning and an end to this barbaric practice once and for all.

Thank you for receiving Animals & Environment Alerts from Care2, and please act today!

Strange and suspicious behavior regarding the election and recounts from Ohio Secretary of State Ken Blackwell

For a Republican and state Bush campaign co-chair Secretary of State responsible for the election in his state who claims that the Presidential election was conducted fairly, Ohio Secretary of State Kenneth Blackwell is behaving very strangely and suspiciously. Claims of massive fraud and corruption regarding the tally in Ohio are rampant among the progressive blogosphere and are growing daily. The best thing for Secretary Blackwell and other Republicans to do to crush such speculation would be to allow and get behind the efforts to recount the vote, efforts that are clearly provided for in Ohio state law. Instead, it appears that Republicans in the state and nationally are engaging in what can only be interpreted as efforts to fight and delay it and intimidate those who want it. On December 8th, Former Congressman Dan Hamburg was arrested while attempting to deliver a letter to Blackwell from the US House Judiciary Committee with questions about the election. Two days later, Secretary Blackwell issued a surprise executive order stopping the recording of voting information from several minority precincts in Greene County. Two volunteers, Joan Quinn and Eve Roberson, two certified election volunteers, were hand-copying voter discrepancies from precinct voting books on behalf of Green candidate Mr. Cobb and Libertarian candidate Badnarick, who were the original requestors of the Ohio recount. Blackwell's order goes further and specifies that the voting records are to be locked down and declares that they are 'not public'.

Messages left for comment at the Ohio Secretary of State's office were not returned. Instead of providing more confidence in the veracity of Ohio's election, Blackwell's actions are throwing gasoline on the fires of the conspiracy theories out there and are perilously close to being in direct violation of Ohio state law. The secretary has one legitimate course of action open to him. Obey the spirit of Ohio state law, and permit a transparent, efficient, complete and rapid recount process. The voters of Ohio and the nation deserve no less.

“Tagging” U.S. Schoolchildren

Houston’s Spring Independent School District “is equipping 28,000 students with ID badges containing computer chips that are read when the students get on and off school buses,” reported the November 17 New York Times. “The information is fed automatically by wireless phone to the police and school administrators.” Police can monitor children from the time they leave home to their arrival on campus. “In a variation of the concept, a Phoenix school district in November is starting a project using fingerprint technology to track when and where students get on and off buses,” continues the Times. “Last year, a charter school in Buffalo began automating attendance counts with computerized ID badges — one of the earliest examples of what educators said could become a wider trend.” That trend has been referred to as “tagging” schoolchildren, supposedly as a measure to prevent child abductions. The favored method involves radio frequency identification (RFID) computer chip technology “similar to that used to track livestock and pallets of retail shipments.”

Understandably, many older students object to the technology. “It’s too Big Brother for me,” complained 15-year-old Kenneth Haines. “Something about the school wanting to know the exact place and time makes me feel kind of like an animal.”

Erklärung zur Enttarnung des verdeckten Ermittlers Kristian K.

"Anfang November 2004 ist in Hamburg Kristian K. als verdeckter Ermittler der Polizei enttarnt worden. Unter dem Namen "Christian Trott" war er in verschiedenen linken Gruppen und Zusammenhängen aktiv. Gemeinsam ist diesen Gruppen der Widerstand gegen den Sozialabbau. (…) Der Einsatz des verdeckten Ermittlers Kristian K. ist nicht nur ein Angriff gegen einzelne politische Gruppen, sondern richtet sich gegen den gesamten Widerstand gegen Sozialabbau. Wir verurteilen den Einsatz verdeckter Ermittler. Insbesondere aber verurteilen wir eine Politik in deren Zentrum der Abbau demokratischer und sozialer Rechte steht. Der Widerstand gegen diese Politik hat nur dann eine Perspektive, wenn er sich den Spaltungen in einen gemäßigten und einen radikalen Teil widersetzt."

This means England won't be able to hold people in secret jails any longer. Hopefully, courts in the United States will reach a similar conclusion and decide in favor of the rule of law and against government-sponsored fear...

Say NOW Vote Fraud Demo & Need for Lawyers, Actions

In my last email I gave an update about how real evidence of vote fraud, vote suppression, and vote machine manipulation was coming out in Ohio. Representative Conyers is getting the FBI, etc. to investigate and Kerry is asking Ohio counties for requests to make recount more transparant and count every vote but he still isn't putting all his money where his requests are (see link below for Kerry action and others).

If we are very lucky the revelations coming out of Ohio may even change the election. But even if it doesn't, it might at least help institute election reform that will make it harder to manipulate elections in the future. And bringing out all the vote fraud, suppression and errors in the election will take away from the idea that Bush has any "mandate." But for this to happen we all need to ACT! Please read over the rest of this post to see what you can do.

In addition, a lawsuit by citizens that are challenging the Ohio election needs lawyers. If you are a lawyer who is interested (or know one) contact Gail Jonas gejonas@sonic.net , 707.433.6845 of 707.431.8451

Furthermore, the law firm serving as counsel for the recount effort for the Greens/Libertarians need donations (they are working pro-bono --without pay from their clients). They also do other great stuff for voters w/out access to money and power http://www.nvri.org

One day we'll all know - Let's hope it isn't too late

From Mast Neuwork:

So in Finland they are saying there are no adverse health effects from mobile phones or masts (but use a hands free, and don't talk too long). In Sweden they recognise EMF-induced EHS, while in England they say it doesn't really exist! In Russia they say science calls for vastly lower emissions than even phones throw out, while WHO says there's nothing other than heating effects. Back in Norway they know what our farmers know, but the RSPB dsimisses! With TETRA at least, we have come to know all about smaller birds disappearing from our gardens.

One day we'll all know: let's hope it isn't too late.

Subject: [BOU BirdTalk] Mobilephone masts

Hello all,

It was interesting to read about the Golden Plover behaviour. Here in Norway they don't erect mobile phone mast near fox farms or mink farms. It seems that the animals become very distressed. A few years ago a mobile phone mast was erected about a 1000 metre above a regular breeding site for a pair of our local Eagle Owls. That was the last year they were seen in the area.

All the best,
Eddie Chapman, Voss. Norway.

And then, of course, there are the homing pigeons that don't know where they live any more because more and more masts are appearing. Perhaps these birds are all manifesting 'psychosomatic' symptoms? And of course, Finland's economy relies heavily on Nokia, so their birds have obviously flown!
