At a hearing in Courtroom 310 on Dec 19, Tyler Froatz's trial date was rescheduled for Feb 27, with motions to be heard on that same day. This was because of a nearly-booked schedule for the judge.
Froatz's attorney wanted a motions hearing with an "expert witness" in an attempt to claim his arsenal is an antique collection. Since when do things like a molotov cocktail and an AK-47 constitute "antiques?" Unfortunately, those maps in his car weren't dusty old treasure maps either-they were diagrams of Malcolm X Park showing lines of fire into the crowd at the May 1 immigration rally!
Due to a lack of resources and a sustainable collective, we are putting our operations on hold. Please email info at beltwayimc.org if you'd like to get involved.
I don't know if there's anyone here empowered to do edits/deletions, but if there are, they'd better get on the stick before the center column's totally overrun with Italian link spam.
Yet another early-morning-news REM State inspiration classic!
Greetings & Solidarity from the Upstate Uprise Unconventional Action Faction,
Martin Luther King, Jr Day weekend, January 19-21st, are tentative dates for a
northeast Unconventional Action convergence in Binghamton, New York to network
anti-authoritarians for the protests against the 2008 Democratic & Republican
National Conventions.
While plans are still coming together, we wanted to give people a heads up and
start getting the word out. Several groups/individuals are working on
announcements & info about logistics that will come soon!

What Is Unconventional Action?
(FOREIGN-LANGUAGE FILM, Bullshit with English Subtitles)
Janey Kinney ,head of government relations for Glaxo-SmithKline(GSK), received a 45 minute protest at her home 4825 Quebec(st?), near American University on Halloween. This is because GSK continues to do business with Huntingdon Life Sciences, a contract vivisector that tortures 500 animals to death every day.
Here is the residential address of William A White-the Nazi who has posted the home addresses of the Jena 6 and asked racists to visit them:
Bldg. 101 Apt. 1 Summit Apartments, Summit Way (off Franklin Road) Roanoke, Va. drives a Silver Toyota Solara with Virginia License Plates: JXB 5595. Decal on rear bumper of an eagle with a German saying and a National Alliance live rune in the center of the eagle
Israel's airstrike on a target in Syria has raised fears of a spreading war. This scenario is exactly how many expect any war with IRAN to start, and two carrier battle groups are now in the Persian Gulf. Guess we now know why they are there...
Neo-Nazi William A White(Bill White) is trying to direct racist thugs to the homes of the Jena 6 defendants in Jena, Louisiana. He has published their home addresses trying to bring about who knows what.
He is also a racist slumlord who has been buying up all the houses on his block and the next block and evicting Black residents.
Here is an interesting story from a rival Nazi website targettting him:

IT IS CONFIRMED HE COLLECTS MAIL FROM THIS ADDRESS, BUT HE APEARS TO LIVE ELSEWHERE
On the morning of September 18th, as many as 100 fed-up DC residents occupied the City Council chambers and shouted down the council, demanding the revocation of about 40 emergency bills passed in the summer to sell public land to developers.
Schools and libraries are being turned into condominiums over the objections of almost all city residents other than the developers themselves. All summer Jack Evans and Mayor Fenty conspired to speed this up even further and exclude the public, setting mandatory hearings for such dates as July 5th.
The front page of the August 28 Washington Post had the ultimate juicy story: Another GOP sex scandal! This time itś Mitt Romneyś former Idaho campaign manager and Idaho GOP Senator Larry Craig.
Larry Craig was a big supporter of the Marriage amendment(a constitutional ban on Gay marriage) and opponent of gays in the military. The Washington Post cited DC Gay activist Larry Rogers as having heard comnplaits about him before, from men who encountered him in Union Stationś toilets.
A shocking report came in from the Immigrant Solidarity Caravan as they prepared to set out for Manassas from Culpeper,VA. Sanctuary movement leader Elvira Arellano has just been arrested by ICE and is being held in detention in Los Angeles!
She had just spoke at Our Lady Queen of Angels Church in downtown La, and was preparing to go to another church to speak. -Moments after she got in her van her van was surrounded by Federal Gestapo!

Although the psychotic warlord George Bush is losing his grip, the fascist atmosphere has become even more ominous. ICE has been building massive detention centers for the victims of their raids-reminding many of camps the Nazis built for THEIR enemies!
These giant facilites are located in rural areas, deliberately out-of-reach to most legal counsel, and abuse and torture are reported by immigrants to be growing rapidly.
On September 4 members of the Pittsburgh Organizing Group (POG) will start a month long fast against war and military recruitment at the doors of the Armed Forces Career Center (military recruiting station) on Forbes Ave. Throughout the fast, participants and supporters will remain camped out in front of the station to put a spotlight on one of the most grotesque symbols of militarism in our community. We invite our friends and supporters to join us in our campout and, as your health situation and work schedules allow, join us for all or part of the fast.
Some of you may recall William Kristal, editor of the Weekly Standard, a notorious neocon journal. This is like a Bush/Cheney/Perle/Rove version of Der Sturmer! Kristal helped make the Iraq war possible. On August 7, he was given a column in the Washington Examiner, where he said the US can win the war in Iraq and war opponents are in defeat.
Here is his quote from the Examiner column: "It ended with respected military analyists-Deomcrats no less!-reporting that the situation on the ground had improved, and the war might be winnable."
You know things got more than more than a little WTFish at this Saturday's Anti-Immigration Rally when a certain Nazi nimrod we know announces a $250 reward for DLJ's address (hint: somewhere outside Philly)!
On July 2 in El Salvador many, many people were beaten, 25 were shot with rubber bullets, and 13 charged with terrorism for peacefully protesting water privatization. These "terrorism" charges carry 40 YEAR prison terms!

Although 14 were arrested originally, one was so badly beaten that prosecutors reportedly dropped charges rather than have his beaten and bloodied face shown to the media in a courtroom.
See whole article hear. Sounds like Sheehan's an anarchist!

Sheehan's Rebellion
Cindy Sheehan to take on Nancy Pelosi: some advice for a would-be candidate
by Justin Raimondo
I see that Cindy Sheehan is announcing a possible run against Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi. Sheehan's angry that Pelosi has consistently resisted defunding the Iraq war and has staunchly stood against the impeach-Bush-and-Cheney tide sweeping the Democratic/antiwar netroots. Yet it seems, also, that she has had an ideological awakening:
