Boycott the Olympics? Just because of a little oppression?
2008-04-07 18:17:00 Just what is all this bullshit about boycotting the Beijing Olympics? Just because of what's going on in Tibet? Since when have the majority of nations in the world not been screwing over some other country or their own people at any given point in time? If proper moral behavior were a requirement for Olympic participation, the only nation sending athletes to China's capital this summer would be Norway maybe —€” although the Sami may have something to say about that. America, of course, is probably the least qualified to boycott the Olympics over Tibet. How can we wag our finger at China for liberating Tibet when we ourselves have just liberated Iraq? Hell, our nation is founded on the kind of liberation that's going on in Tibet. We liberated this land from the tyranny of the American Indians, the Spanish, and the Mexicans, and liberated a whole bunch of Africans from tribal tyranny so they could come here and enjoy our freedom with us (and do a little work by way of...

Israeli Oppression in Hebron — A Case History of Separation, Forced Displac
2008-01-25 02:31:00 by Stephen Lendman B'Tselem is the independent Israeli Information Center for Human Rights in the Occupied (Palestinian) Territories (OPT) based in Jerusalem with a well-deserved reputation for accuracy and integrity. It was founded in 1989 to "document and educate the Israeli public, policymakers (and concerned people everywhere) about human rights violations in the (OPT), combat the phenomenon of denial prevalent among the Israeli public (and elsewhere), and create a human rights culture in Israel" to convince government officials to respect human rights and comply with international law. Its human rights work is wide-ranging, carefully researched, and thoroughly cross-checked with relevant documents and other official government sources. It also relies on additional information from Israeli, Palestinian, and other human rights organizations. From them, B'Tselem publishes scores of reports, some quite comprehensive in scope.

The ?Oppression? of Christians in America

The Great Debaters:Crime is a Form of Oppression
2007-12-26 16:31:00 Hope all you black people out there in the Blogosphere had a great holiday! I can say mine was uneventful, and thats a good thing. I spent the day in the theaters, not only did I finally get around to seeing I AM LEGEND, but I also got to see Denzel's THE GREAT DEBATERS. It was everything I thought it would be, and, being a member of United Black America, I watched with an eye towards the situations that they (the cast) faced back in 1935 that are still applicable today. I did find quite a few, but the number one thing that leaped out at me during the movie was this statement:"Crime is a form of oppression"The relevance of this statement didn't hit me until I put it into the context of the present day. But before I get into that, let me differentiate between the two types of crime as they relate to this post; overt and covert crime. Covert crime is a criminal activity that is hidden under the guise of being either just, or committed unintentionally. An example of this would be the...

2007-12-05 18:39:00 Apology For Racism: By Courtnee Romer - Nassau, Bahamas: FREEPORT, Grand Bahama – Director of the One Bahamas Foundation Sir Durward Knowles on Tuesday apologized for the oppression of blacks in The Bahamas, which occurred decades ago. Sir Durward spoke at a flag-raising ceremony at Independence Park where One Bahamas ceremonies were held after a five-year hiatus. "Boys and girls, you are living in a great country.

Today, we’re living in a great society. We’ve [beaten] all the trials and temptations and now we’re here as one Bahamas," added Sir Durward, who said he was glad that he lived in the time of oppression because he came out better for it. He said he appreciates all races and it was a blessing to listen to all the performances at the celebration. The re-launch of the One Bahamas festivities co...

Robert Jensen on Oppression
2007-11-11 14:33:00 How do we explain the fact that most people's stated philosophical and theological systems are rooted in concepts of justice, equality, and the inherent dignity of all people, yet we allow violence, exploitation, and oppression to flourish? Only a small percentage of people in any given society are truly sociopaths, engaging in cruel and oppressive behavior openly and with relish. Feminism helped me understand the complex process, which tends to work like this: --The systems and structures in which we live are hierarchical. --Hierarchical systems and structures deliver to those in the dominant class certain privileges, pleasures, and material benefits. --People are typically hesitant to give up such privileges, pleasures, and benefits. --But, those benefits clearly come at the expense of those in the subordinated class. --Given the widespread acceptance of basic notions of equality and human rights, the existence of hierarchy has to be justified in some way other than crass self-in...

Egypt Vehemently Denies Oppression of Religious Minorities
2007-09-18 12:29:00 It is déjà vu!Last spring when the US State Department released its 2006 report on Egypt's violations of the rights of religious minorities, Egypt denied that these violations had ever occurred as was published in this past blog-post.After the release of the 2007 US State Department report on International Religious Freedom, Egypt is repeating its previous stand: that religious minorities are not discriminated against and that they have equal citizenship rights in Egypt.Cairo: El-Badeel newspaper reported, on 16 September 2007, that the official spokesperson for Egypt's Ministry of Foreign Affairs "clarified that the Egyptian society is built on the supremacy of the law, and its judicial system that deals with litigations, is completely independent.

Legal scrum: Media win important battle vs. oppression
2007-09-11 00:28:00 I learned the power of the press at a pretty early age. As a teen working for the Fort Myers News-Press, I covered a lot of football and watched a lot of talented players, like the always explosive Deion Sanders. Rarely, did anybody cause any problems. Once, though, a woman at the gate at Cypress Lake High School refused to allow me into a game, perhaps believing I was some high school senior trying to sneak in for free. She said I would have to pay. I repeated that I was a reporter and showed her my notebooks and legal pads. She said I would have to pay like everybody else. I told her not to expect any coverage in the next morning's editions.Fortunately, a track coach at the gate who knew me, told her to let me in. I'd like to think that coach reamed her out, but this woman probably never gave it a second thought. The press, she believed, should not get any special privileges. But, you know, sports reporters are not there eating hot dogs, downing popcorn, and sipping sodas as we ...

Iraq: The Legacy of Oppression and the Legitimacy of Resistance
2007-08-31 21:58:00 We sit here 8000 miles away with our luxuries of electricity and water, while Iraqis suffer in the desert heat with no relief, and we tell them they are disorganized. This is fiddling while Iraq burns. People are dying; the question is moot.We are not fighting Al Qaeda in Iraq; we are slaughtering people's children. We went in to liberate Iraqis from a ruthless dictator we imposed upon them who allegedly killed 300,000 during his 30 year reign of terror. We?ve accomplished more than triple that in a fraction of the time.If ever there were legitimate resistance to illegal occupation, it is in Iraq....And do you know what Iraqis are saying? I don't speak Arabic, but I can translate for you. They're saying, "Get out!" They're saying, "NO way you're staying for 60 years." They're saying, "Get your oil the old-fashioned way - pay for it!" And why are they saying this? Because they have a dignity and self-respect rooted in 7000 years of civilization.Iraq is the center of Arab nati...

Should anarchists use violence to fight oppression?
2007-05-06 19:16:00 As I discussed in my post about the myths people associate with anarchism, violence is not a necessary part of anarchist thought. Certainly violence against others is hardly ever condoned by anarchists. Why would a political philosophy which respects the rights of the individual above all else commit acts of violence or terror? Personally, I believe violence or terror used to further the revolution is really counter-productive. It seems to me that pacifism should be an integral part of anarchism. As the character Winston Smith in George Orwell’s 1984 says while being tortured by Big Brother, there’s nothing worse than physical pain. Physical pain is the tool of oppression. Anarchists should draw the line strictly and never condone it. Only in rare cases where violence against other people is required for self-defense, is it ever justified. But should this even be considered violence?  Anarchism has been associated with violence and terror in the past, however, and this is very...

Islam Commands That Oppression Be Abolished
2007-02-22 03:09:00 Muslims should never remain silent in the face of oppression that they witness, or even hear about secondhand. Their compassion, stemming from the morality of the Qur'an, directs them to oppose all tyranny, wickedness and oppression, to defend the oppressed, to wage a war of ideas on their behalf. Whether dealing with their closest friends or with strangers with whom they share no interests in common, they behave in a manner determined to prevent any such oppression. Rather, they seize on this opportunity to win the good pleasure of God and implement the morality of the Qur'an. Because a believer's conscience is so very sensitive, his compassion never lets him turn a blind eye to the slightest injustice or cruelty. He will take his place in the vanguard of that morality by avoiding any actions that might be unfair to or oppress anyone else. Whenever he sees anyone else behaving that way, his conscience gives him no peace until he's done everything possible to right matters. True...
Compassionate Oppression: Subjugating Your Inferiors with a Human Touch : S
2007-02-21 15:12:02 An Open Letter to Ehud Olmert By T.D. ?Daddy? Rice Ehud Olmert Office of the Prime Minister 3 Kaplan St. Hakiyra, Jerusalem 91919 Dear Ehud, My hearty congratulations to you and your fellow Zionists! You sure know how to contain those infernal camel jockeys infesting your Holy Land. A man can?t help but admire your fierce determination to keep that pack of maggots from maturing into a full blown infestation of flies. But I have to tell you that despite my reverence for you and your cause, I have concluded that you folks are going about this the wrong way. You?ve infuriated most of the Arab and Islamic world, the UN is constantly assailing you, and untold numbers of liberal (excuse my language) pussies are calling for my great nation to stop funding your good work. By persistently applying those ruthless, heavy-handed tactics to rein in your inferiors, you?re borrowing trouble faster than our spend-happy government can increase its debts with China and Japan.
