compare the Hu/Falun Gong arrest to cindy sheehan

* "Five major civil rights organizations and six business leaders announced their support for a suit filed against President Bush to stop the National Security Agency's warrantless wiretap program today, RAW STORY has learned." (link)
'parently nobody likes being spied on.

* "U.S. Army War College’s Strategic Studies Institute.: Though the critics have made a number of telling points against the conduct of the war and the occupation, the basic problems faced by the United States flowed from the enterprise itself, and not primarily from mistakes in execution along the way." (link)

* arianna: "As we have seen -- and will no doubt be regularly reminded of as the Libby legal maneuverings continue -- Miller is one of the most self-destructive characters in the history of journalism.
Right about now, I imagine it's her own lawyers who are wishing they could lock her up."

* "Seems President Ahmadinejad has taken a page out of the Rove handbook: Ignore mainstream folks and stoke the fundamentalist base. The armageddon lobby gone global." (link)

* i havent yet noticed anyone compare the Hu/Falun Gong arrest to cindy sheehan for being arrested in congress for saying nothing

* juancole: "Cut the fanatics of the ZOA and JINSA off without a dime. The plan of the leaders of these latter organizatons is to gradually shift the American Jewish community toward Revisionist Zionism and Likudism, so as to make it a permanent pillar of the right wing of the American Republican Party. The right wing of the Republican Party is decisively not "for others." It is about the rich being selfish. And Revisionist Zionism of the Likud is not "for others." It is the supreme selfishness, the erasure of another people. And that is not what the American Jewish community has stood for for hundreds of years. It isn't what the Jewish tradition is about."
