Rather than lapse into despair and inaction, I am asking you all to stand up to them. I do not know, nor have I the capability to say what standing up to them means. But I know it is what we must do. The police expect zero-resistence from their herd of sheep and have grown used to always winning. They always win because they have conditioned everyone to never resist them, just like every good domesticator.

The Kanadian government is trying to process Albert through their colonial, Kangaroo courts. But Albert refuses to be broken, and as a signatory member of the Kanienkekhake tribe, He has and continues to assert that Kanada's INjustice system has no jurisdiction over him. Kanada's kidnapping and imprisonment of Albert has prevented him from continuing to defend his land and his people from genocide & occupying military forces. Albert is not accountable to Kanada's laws but rather the Kaianereh'ko:wa/Great Law, and this matter of kidnapping is an act of treason under International Law.

Will there ever again be a public intellectual who commands the attention of so many across the planet? During the Vietnam War, Chomsky’s arguments helped define the responsibilities of the intellectual to society. He has since been an unstinting critic of US foreign policy, exposing in particular the effects of its efforts to oppose socialism in Latin America.

This series of interviews with David Barsamian is a thorough tour of today’s geopolitical horizon. For Chomsky, the greatest threat to civilisation is not global warming, peak oil or terrorism (though these are hardly to be taken lightly) but nuclear war. The Bush administration’s flouting of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, and weapons programmes of non-signatories such as India, Pakistan and Israel, have led to instability.

Activists plan to disrupt the official opening of Heathrow's £4 billion fifth terminal next month by flooding it with hundreds of protesters.

Demonstrators, wearing yellow T-shirts emblazoned with a "Stop Airport expansion" logo, will descend on the terminal at 11am on 27 March in a "flash mob".

The massive environmental protest will initially be passive to evade strict laws banning direct action inside T5.

PARIS - Alain Robbe-Grillet, an avant-garde author who dispensed with conventional storytelling as a pioneer of the postwar "new novel" movement in France, died Monday. He was 85.

Robbe-Grillet died at Caen University Hospital in western France, where he had been admitted over the weekend for cardiac problems, hospital officials said.

He was among the most prominent of France's "new novelists" that emerged in the 1950s, which included Nobel Prize laureate Claude Simon, Michel Butor and Nathalie Sarraute. The group's experimental works tossed aside traditional literary conventions like plot and character development, narrative and chronology, chapters and punctuation.

PARIS (AFP)---A French anarchist and immigration campaigner was fined 800 euros (1,170 dollars) on Thursday for comparing President Nicolas Sarkozy's policies as interior minister to France's pro-Nazi wartime regime.
Romain Dunant, 35, belongs to the Education Without Borders Network (RESF) which campaigns against the practice of deporting illegal immigrants regardless of whether they have children raised in France, and the CNT anarchist group.

In an email sent to Sarkozy's ministry in 2006 to demand the release of a fellow activist detained for opposing the deportation of a pupil's parents, Dunant attacked his policies as "racist", offering him his "anti-fascist salutations".
