The case for making Al-Jazeera available to Canadian cable companies is made by a Halifax journalist. >by Stephen Kimber >http://www.rabble.ca/news_full_story.shtml?x=23627 * Pledging allegiance to U.S. foreign policy * Under the Bush Administration, the warning is clear: a free trade agreement is not something one has a right to. It's a privilege. When it comes to prospective trade partners, the U.S. expects cooperation ^× or better ^× on foreign policy and security issues. >by Luke Eric Peterson >http://www.rabble.ca/news_full_story.shtml?x=23680 * A bodyguard of lies * The White House has now retreated from claims made in George W. Bush's January 28 State of the Union address that Iraq attempted to purchase uranium from Niger. While the belated retraction was obviously welcomed by those who prefer their politicians to be honest at least some of the time, it only scratches the surface of the Bush administration's many lies on this issue. >by Scott Piatkowski >http://www.rabble.ca/columnists_full.shtml?x=23799 * Sixteen little words, my as*terisk * ^ÓJust 16 little words,^Ô as one media commentator described them, apparently trying to trivialize the controversy over a forged document that threatens to engulf George W. Bush's presidency. But the 16 little words ^× ^ÓThe British government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa^Ô ^× weren't just a casual, off-hand comment. >by Linda McQuaig >http://www.rabble.ca/columnists_full.shtml?x=23736 * Corporate agenda on campus * What was once just a delusion, John McMurtry believes, is now a dominant agenda: the subordination of higher research and education to transnational commerce. More and more evidence suggests that universities are being remodeled as research and market sites for big corporations. >Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives >http://www.rabble.ca/in_cahoots.shtml * Legal limbo must end * And the leader said, ^Óthe only thing I know for certain is that these are bad people.^Ô Hundreds of them, held without charge, without access to lawyers or family, many since late 2001. Now six of them could be the first to face trial by secret military commission. Without recognizable criminal charge or right of appeal, these men could now face death sentences. Is this really happening in the U.S.A.? >Amnesty International Canada >http://www.rabble.ca/in_cahoots.shtml _______________________________________________ This week @ rabble.ca To subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.rabble.ca/mailman/listinfo/announce ____________________________________________________________________________ Did a friend forwarded this to you?
