"Guantanamo has become the gulag of our time," Amnesty Secretary General Irene Khan said as the London-based group launched its annual report. Amnesty International called for the camp to be closed. Story Continues Below The annual report accused the United States of shirking its responsibility to set the bar for human rights protections and said Washington has instead created a new lexicon for abuse and torture. "Attempts to dilute the absolute ban on torture through new policies and quasi-management speak, such as 'environmental manipulation, stress positions and sensory manipulation,' was one of the most damaging assaults on global values." Some 540 prisoners from about 40 countries are currently being held at the U.S. prison camp in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. More than 200 others have been released, though some are now jailed in their countries; many have been held for three years without charge.

NATION BRIEFS No. 224, May 1-7, 2003 White quits as US Army Secretary The civilian who oversees the US Army, Thomas White, has submitted his resignation. The Defense Dept. has not given a reason for the resignation nor the date it will be effective. Before being appointed by Pres. Bush in 2001, White worked 11 years for Enron, which filed one of the biggest bankruptcies in US history in December 2001. His most recent corporate job was vice chairman of Enron Energy Services, which allegedly traded millions of megawatts of electricity with other Enron divisions, artificially jacking up prices. Defense Sec. Donald Rumsfeld was reported to have a grudge against White for working behind his back last May to sustain the $11 billion Crusader artillery program which Rumsfeld cancelled. (Reuters) Bush stays on war footing for re-election drive Pres. Bush unveiled the central points of his re-election campaign on Apr. 24, mixing muscular rhetoric on the war against terror with economic optimism. Bush never strayed far from the theme of national security that will dominate his drive for a second term. After the conflict in Iraq, Bush warned other states and terrorist groups against challenging Washington.

Many of the undersigned agencies previously wrote to you on March 2, 2004 to request a TPS designation for Haiti based on the political turmoil the country was undergoing at that time. While civil strife is still rampant, as evidenced by recent rioting in Port-au-Prince during which several people were beheaded, another major disaster has struck Haiti since we last wrote to you: Hurricanes Ivan and Frances and Tropical Storm Jeanne have caused an official toll of 1,870 deaths (with more than 800 still missing), rendered an estimated 300,000 people homeless, and caused incalculable damage to Haiti’s already fragile ecological, economic, and social infrastructure. As you know, a designation of TPS permits nationals of a designated nation living in the United States to reside here temporarily and qualify for work authorization for the prescribed period. A designation of TPS may be based exclusively on a finding that there has been a flood or other environmental disaster resulting in a substantial, but temporary, disruption of living conditions in the area affected. A TPS designation based on natural disaster must come pursuant to an official request from the affected foreign state, which is unable, temporarily, to handle adequately the return of its citizens.

Wisconsin Green Party News Progressive politics for Wisconsin. « January 2005 February 2005 March 2005 » GREENS CHARGE THAT BUSH IS SOWING CONFUSION ABOUT SOCIAL SECURITY PermaLink President Bush is using the 'Cato strategy' in his disinformation campaign to promote his Social Security plan, say Greens, who call for public discussion of caps, means testing, and other steps to prevent a shortfall. WASHINGTON, D.C. Green Party leaders accused President Bush of using deceptive and unsupportable claims in his campaign to promote his Social Security privatization plan. "Democrats won't say it, reporters won't say it, so Greens will: President Bush is deceiving the American people to sell his Social Security privatization scheme," said Pat Driscoll, California Green candidate in a special election for Congress (5th Congressional District) "The chief criticism of the Democrats has been that the President isn't specific enough about the plan, and most of the media has covered it as a question of whether Mr. Bush will succeed in enacting his plan, rather than investigating the plan's background and details," added Mr. Driscoll. "Have none of them learned the lessons of President Bush's 2003 State of the Union, when he sold the American people an invasion of Iraq based on equally false information about WMDs, collusion with al-Qaeda, nuclear weapons materials, and an 'imminent threat' to the U.S.?" Greens listed several falsehoods and distortions in Mr. Bush's promotion of his plan:

The departments and agencies represented here each play an important role in our endeavors as do many federal offices and organizations which are not present. Our success at insuring a safe and secure environment for our citizens depends on how well we organize and coordinate our efforts. In this context, I am happy to share with you the State Department's assessment of expanded U.S. Government law enforcement efforts abroad, including that which is contemplated by the FBI. The Threat and Policy Response The collapse of communism, and the emergence of open markets and open societies hold great promise for American citizens. Not only are Soviet missiles no longer targeted at American cities, but our goods and services are sold in all parts of the world, and we continue to lead the largest collection of democracies in the world's history. If we are to secure the benefits of peace and prosperity for our citizens, the United States must continue to lead in the coming century.

The founders, including Jessie Wallace Hughan, leading suffragette, socialist, and pacifist, believed that if enough people stood in total opposition to war, governments would hesitate to go to war. During WWII hundreds of members were imprisoned in the US for refusing to fight. The League was radicalized when these resisters left prison after the war. Not only had the prison experience deepened their thinking, but League members were impressed by the drama of Gandhi's nonviolent struggle for India's liberation. In the 1950s WRL members worked in the Civil Rights movement, in opposition to nuclear testing and "Civil Defense," and helped launch
