Eine überwältigende Mehrheit der Deutschen spricht sich dafür aus, den Güterverkehr von der Straße auf die umweltfreundliche Schiene zu verlagern. 93 Prozent der Befragten stimmen Maßnahmen zur Verlagerung des Güterverkehrs auf die Schiene zu, wie die Studie "Umweltbewusstsein in Deutschland 2004" belegt. Die Bundesregierung ignoriert den Willen des Volkes in der Verkehrspolitik.

Zurzeit rotten wir Menschen jeden Tag bis zu 100 Tier- und Pflanzenarten aus. Wir spielen Schöpfung rückwärts und pfuschen dem lieben Gott ins Handwerk. Aber über diesen größten Umweltskandal regt sich kaum noch jemand auf - weder in Deutschland noch sonst wo. So wird auch die derzeit in Bangkok tagende Artenschutzkonferenz von den deutschen Medien kaum beachtet. An das Artensterben haben wir uns offenbar gewöhnt. Oder wir verdrängen es nach dem zynischen Motto: "Tiere und Pflanzen brauchen wir gar nicht. Hauptsache Mensch."

ASCII stands against eviction - free software needs home

The ASCII squat, a free public internet space run by hackers and activists in Amsterdam, is getting evicted at this moment by the local police.

See http://squat.net/asciicam

ASCII was set up recycling old computers and using only free software (GNU GPL) to bring broader access to technology for the populace.

ASCII is a collective of free and autonomous thinkers, technically and politically aware hackers and free software developers.

The current location of ASCII, Kinkerstraat 92, is not the first nor the last place where hackers struggle for redemption from merchantile agendas speculating on technology and its accessibility by the populace. The right to comunicate is everyone's good and software implements it!

Stand now in solidarity with ASCII, because free software needs /home! Raise consciousness! This small eviction reflects a larger wave of repression operated by western NATO regimes, the recent FBI raid on Indymedia online servers is a serious signal of the current crackdown on freedom of speech. As of today there are no clear legal motivations for this action of censorship affecting more than 20 different countries. But for us the motivation is clear: the capitalist regime brought to its extreme consequences is revealing all its intrinsic violence and its logics of prevarication by silencing any critical voice opposing it.

We will keep on struggling for the right to think differently, act differently and compute differently from the way corporations and fascist state governors are trying to impose us. And if necessary we will compile our last lines of sourcecode on the barricades.

In solidarity with all those who resist.

NL: ASCII von Polizei ausgeräumt

Das freie Software- und Internetprojekt ASCII in Amsterdam wurde am 12.10.04 von der Polizei geräumt. Das langjährige Projekt von Hackern und Aktivisten verwendet alte Rechner mit freier Software um kostenloses und unzensiertes Internet für jedermann zu ermöglichen. Aber auch den Niederländern ist freie Kommunikation und Software Politikern und Konzernen ein Dorn im Auge.

[...]

Montag Abend erreicht uns eine weitere traurige Meldung, diesmal aus den Niederlanden.

[...]

ASCII [1] realisierte seit 5 Jahren ein öffentliches, freies Internetcafe in Amsterdam. Der Zugang zum Netz war kostenlos, zum Einsatz kam nur freie Software. Nun wurden die Räume des freien Projektes ASCII von der Polizei geräumt [2].

Es ist nicht das erste Mal, dass ASCII geräumt wurde und sicher nicht das letzte Mal. ASCII wird einen neuen Wirkungsort finden. Das Öffentliche Internetcafe wird es vermutlich nicht mehr geben, doch der Kampf um die Freiheit der Kommunikation und andere Themen, die von der Politik niedergemetzelt werden, geht weiter.

Zitat von der ASCII Webseite: "We will keep on struggling for the right to think differently, act differently and compute differently from the way corporations and fascist state governors are trying to impose us. And if necessary we will compile our last lines of source code on the barricades."

In Solidarität mit den freiheitlichen Bewegungen.

Scientists in the U.S. say they have demonstrated the existence of the illness known as "Gulf War Syndrome." Led by the National Gulf Wa Resource Center, independent scientists, and funding by philanthropist Ross Perot over the past decade, the world now knows the toxic exposures in Southwest Asia are, in fact, related to the serious medical conditions among tens of thousands of Desert Shield and Desert Storm veterans. The serious toxic exposures include chemical warfare agents, experimental shots and pills, and depleted uranium.

Report Adds to Confusion over Gulf War Syndrome

All Things Considered, October 15, 2004 · A report ordered by the Veterans Affairs Department concludes an alarming number of U.S. soldiers suffered neurological damage from chemicals encountered in the 1991 Gulf War. But some experts say there's still not enough evidence to conclude that nerve gases, pesticides and other chemicals caused long-term illnesses in veterans. NPR's David Kestenbaum reports...

http://www.veteransforcommonsense.org/NewsArticle.cfm?ID=2228

According to the Washington Post, "The family of Army Spec. Rodney A. Jones buried the young soldier at Arlington National Cemetery yesterday, along with his dreams. Jones, 21, was killed Sept. 30 in Baghdad when a car bomb exploded near his dismounted patrol. He was the 87th soldier killed in Iraq to be buried at Arlington.... Acting Secretary of the Army Les Brownlee attended the service and at one point knelt in front of family members and spoke to them privately." However, after 19 months of war in Iraq and 87 burials, President George Bush has failed to attend a single funeral down the street from the White House.

http://www.veteransforcommonsense.org/NewsArticle.cfm?ID=2226

The well-researched article below describes the death of Jeff Lucey, an Iraq War veteran. "[W]hen Jeff returned to his parents’ home in July 2003 after serving six months in Iraq as a truck driver, there was nothing ordinary left about him. He started drinking too much. He became withdrawn, depressed and distant. In June, after what his parents describe as months of mental and emotional torment, the lance corporal went down to the basement and hanged himself. He was 23."

http://www.veteransforcommonsense.org/NewsArticle.cfm?ID=2231

According to the Guardian newspaper, "Discipline and morale among US troops in Iraq was under fresh scrutiny last night as the military admitted that 17 soldiers were being investigated for refusing to operate a fuel convoy because of safety fears."

"Das Ergebnis unserer Prüfung stellt sich wie folgt dar: An der gesundheitlichen Schädigung Ihrer Familie scheint kein Zweifel zu bestehen, auch am Krankheitswert kann in diesem Fall nicht stichhaltig gezweifelt werden. Es ist davon auszugehen, dass in Ihrem Fall tatsächlich durch elektromagnetische Wellen Gesundheitsstörungen hervorgerufen werden. In der Wissenschaft ist allerdings unstrittig, dass es außer der Beendigung der Exposition KEINE ETABLIERTE THERAPIE der Elektrosmogkrankheit gibt. Aus diesem Grund ist auch die Frage zu stellen in wie weit die Bestimmung von Melatonin und Serotonin oder von Antikörpern gegen Aspergillus für die einzuschlagende Therapie von Bedeutung sind."

In den USA dürfen implantierbare Mikrochips angeboten werden, die alle medizinischen Daten des Trägers enthalten. Verbraucherschützer sind besorgt.

Die US-amerikanische Food and Drug Administration (FDA) hat die Vermarktung von implantierbaren Chips genehmigt. Der elektronische Informationsspeicher unter der Haut soll einfachen Zugang zu den medizinischen Daten eines Patienten ermöglichen. Der Hersteller vertritt die Meinung, dass diese „VeriChips“ Patienten schnellere und bessere medizinische Versorgung gewährleisten. So könnten sie zum Beispiel Unfälle durch Verabreichung falscher Medikamente verhindern.

Die New York Times weist in ihrem Bericht über die Neuheit aber auch die Problematik dieser Technologie hin. Datenschützer und Verbraucherzentralen äußern bereits starke Zweifel an der Harmlosigkeit des Chips. „Sobald der Chip einmal unter der Haut ist, hat man keine Handhabe gegen eine mögliche Überwachung„, sagt Marc Rotenberg, Geschäftsführer einer Gruppe in Washington, die sich für Datenschutz einsetzt. „Da liegt nämlich das Interesse: an der Möglichkeit, Leute zu identifizieren und zu verfolgen.“

Der Chip-Hersteller versucht diese Zweifel mit dem Argument abzuschwächen, dass die Implantation freiwillig ist und dass nur Daten gespeichert werden, die vom Patienten autorisiert sind. Ärzte und Krankenhauspersonal sollen mit einem speziellen Scanner eine 16-stellige Zahl über den Chip lesen können. Der Chip soll keinerlei andere Aufzeichnungen enthalten, nur die Zahl, über die der Arzt Informationen erhält, wie beispielsweise Blutgruppe, Medikamenten-Historie oder andere medizinische Daten, die im Computer gespeichert sind.

In the battle against biopiracy, Indian wheat farmers, backed by Greenpeace, won a significant victory after the European Patent Office revoked a patent given to Monsanto for its "Nap Hal" wheat variety.

"This was clearly a biopiracy attempt by Monsanto and would have set a new and dangerous trend," said Dr. Ashesh Tayal, scientific advisor for Greenpeace India. "Revocation of the patent in total reinforces a victory for the farmers in India and a lesson to learn that we need to be much more proactive to protect our traditional knowledge."

In its patent application, Monsanto claimed a special baking quality in the wheat was its invention. But Indian farmers, with the help of Greenpeace, were able to prove it was a trait bred by them and not genetically engineered.

"This is a big success for farmers all over the world," said Dr. Christoph Then, patent expert from Greenpeace Germany. "For the future of saving world food security it is extremely important to promote open access to seeds for farmers."

Although I just signed a petition demanding to know how George Bush plans to avoid drafting a generation of young people to fight in Iraq, and I hope you will to by going to the website listed below, I did not get this message to you by submitting your address on the petition signing website. If you want them to have your address, feel free to give it to them as I did mine, but that is your right and privilege.

In any case, I do hope you got to
http://petition.democracyforamerica.com/page/petition/nodraft/lvzmcr and sign the petition.

George Bush is already drafting some people -- he is forcing soldiers to stay active beyond their commitments and ripping apart families by sending unprecedented numbers of National Guard and Reserves to occupy a foreign country.

He has been misleading us on Iraq from the beginning -- about nuclear weapons, about the cost, and about the progress being made. George Bush has some explaining to do about how he will fix the mess he's made without asking this generation to make the sacrifice he dodged.

Join me and demand some answers:

Chemicals Sickened '91 Gulf War Veterans, Latest Study Finds

In a story which Veterans for Common Sense was critical in publicizing, the New York Times' Scott Shane reports that a new VA Research Advisory Panel on Gulf War Veterans' Ilnesses report breaks dramatically from previous government reports describing stress as the major causative factor in Gulf War illnesses. The new report, focusing on exposure to toxic chemicals, raises the key question: have we learned from our mistakes and will we treat returning Iraq veterans any better than we did those of the Gulf War and Vietnam?

Transparenz?

Von Dagmar Schindler

Wenn ein Kreisbauamtsleiter in seiner Eigenschaft als FWG-Kommunalpolitiker in der Stadt Bad Dürkheim einen Antrag stellen muss, damit die Kreisverwaltung in Sachen Mobilfunk größere Initiative entwickelt, dann ist das schon bemerkenswert. Zwar war es natürlich nicht Peter Kiefers Absicht, die Kreisverwaltung mit einem Kataster zu behelligen. Aber dass der Bürgermeister den FWG-Stadtrat über den Umweg des Landkreises beim Wort nehmen würde, war abzusehen. Durch seine berufliche Position lieferte er dem Bürgermeister die Angriffsfläche. Deshalb hatte die FWG nicht das richtige Händchen, als sie ausgerechnet den Kreisbauamtsleiter für solch einen Antrag vorschickte.

Es macht auch keinen Sinn, wenn jede Kommune im Landkreis für sich ein Kataster erstellen will, hier ist wirklich die Betreuung durch die Kreisverwaltung sinnvoller. Wobei Sinn und Zweck einer solchen Auflistung [Mobilfunkkataster] schon zu hinterfragen sind. Welchen Nutzen soll so etwas haben, wenn nur die grobe Umgebung einer Antenne farblich hervorgehoben werden darf? Die eingeforderte Transparenz ist doch eigentlich nur eine Verschleierung.

Last night during the third and final presidential debate, both President Bush and Senator Kerry were asked to discuss how their personal faith has and will influence their policy. Although both candidates took a moderate stance in their responses last night, during this campaign as a whole, religion has been repeatedly used as a political tool to divide the country and create wedge issues.

As a recipient of Political Alerts from Care2, you have been following this election closely. Please sign this petition today to protest the manipulation of religion for political gain: http://www.care2.com/go/z/17931

Nothing is more fundamental to America than freedom of thought and belief. But the president is preaching that his faith is the purest, and as such dissenters must be a people whose values and sincerity are of a lower order. This is not the religion of George Washington, John Adams, or Abraham Lincoln.

Act now and add your voice to the thousands of Americans calling out to put compassion back into politics, to end the manipulation of religion in this presidential campaign, and to end the alienation of non-Christian faiths and Christians with different political views.

Send a message to the world that America still believes in the separation of church and state. Sign this petition today! http://www.care2.com/go/z/17931

Thanks for taking the time to make a difference.

Sincerely,
