620 Legitimizing the assasination of political leaders -- rank: 1000

Just woke up to the splendid news that the Americans have begun to fight the good fight for World Democracy... Upon opening the television I hear that the first thing the U.S. military did was to launch 40 missles on a residence where they were presuming Saddam Hussein to be at that moment. The unambiguous explanation given was that they were attempting to eliminate Hussein. So the American government has now openly and through its own practice legitimated on the international stage the policy ...

624 Israeli army bulldozes, kills US protester (ISM Statement)(Editorial issues at Indymedia Israel) -- rank: 1000

I agree Carrol, The problems are one of system-inertia and one of practicality. We would have to end the idea of Open Publishing in order to have an editorial process which would filter out in a fair way, these types of hateful speech. The whole system works with immediate publishing....when you click the publish button on the publish page, the articles are immediately put into the newswire. We would have to have some form of delay mechanism which would then only show the articles in the newswi ...

625 Israeli army bulldozes, kills US protester (ISM Statement) -- rank: 1000

We (edit group) are debating whether to remove them or not...always a debate between free speech uber alles and the question of whether we should be very strict about our four red lines: 1. No Direct calls for violence. 2. No provable lies. 3. Blatently racist statments. 4. No overt racism. We have decided to hide (they are not removed) some of these comments... The problem is we are constantly 'attacked' by a group of about 15 right wing idiots. They don't even attempt logical argumentation, t ...

When Jewish blood is shed, the IDF investigates By Gideon Levy Most of the ills of the occupation and the policy of untrammeled force the Israel Defence Forces is conducting in the territories converged in the incident last Thursday in which two security guards were killed by Israeli forces. Regretfully - because this time the victims were Israelis - the appalling tragedy of errors illustrates the tactics the IDF is actually using against the Palestinians. The killing of the guards - Yoav Doron ...
