TOP SCOOPS
Sludge Report: Kiwi Advice To The World
….in this edition we feature two email messages - anonymous pleas for peace - apparently sent from New Zealand to the
world in general and consumption in the USA in particular. Take it away Bob Harvey… See... Sludge Report #109 – Bomb Them With Butter [1]

Howard’s End: Islamic World’s Concerns Justifiable
- As the Western world prepares for strikes against Afghanistan we can take little comfort from the U.S. Government's
assertion that "this is not a war against Islam." For more than 1,000 years the Christian West and the Muslim world have
been entangled in a long series of wars. Maree Howard writes. See... Howard's End: The History Of Christianity Vs Islam [1]
Sludge Report: Bush’s Alliance Against Terrorism Fails To Form
- When US President George W. Bush, the Commander in Chief, returned from his weekend war retreat at the beginning of
last week the talk was tough. But as yet the President’s Global Alliance Against Terrorism has failed to materialise.

Hard News Is Here! (Plus new mailbag)
- The saddest and most beautiful things I've read have come from New York residents. My heart really goes out to them.
It's all very well to say the citadels of capitalism were stormed, but you're talking about people who feel like a part
of them has been ripped out. See... HARD NEWS 21/09/01 - Making Sense of It IV [1] and HARD NEWS: Making Sense of it V: The Last Emails [2]
Howard’s End: Raising Bread For NY Families
- Insurance and death benefits don't kick in until a death certificate is issued, so millions of dollars is being
raised by real estate agents and mortgage bankers to save the homes of those who died or are missing following last
week's terrorist attacks in the United States. See... Howard's End: Breadwinners Taken From Families [1]
Sludge Report: Love Vs Fear
- Inside This Edition: New York Cover Up Part II...the Story continues... LOVE VS FEAR - The State Of The World And
What To Do About It – New York Cover Up Part I Feedback See... Sludge Report #107 – Love Vs Fear [1] . See also...Earlier Sludge #107 - New York Cover-up [2]
ZNet Commentary On US Terror - September 11 And Its Aftermath

BBC Talks To Colin Powell

intelligence and upon whose outcome you cannot be sure.” See... Colin Powell Interview by the BBC [1]
Fighting Words – Bush’s Speech To Congress
- In the normal course of events, Presidents come to this chamber to report on the state of the Union. Tonight, no such
report is needed. It has already been delivered by the American people. See... Bush Address to a Joint Session of Congress [1]
Youth Looking For Peace - Plan To Go Get It
- “Suddenly, peace is a national, and indeed international, issue again, “said Julie Fairey, National Spokesperson for
Staunch Alliance. “ But did it ever really go away?” See... Staunch Gives Peace a Chance: Matt Robson to Tour! [1] and the latest edition of Young Labour’s weekly newsletter... Future Lefts - This is not a Eulogy [2]

- In this issue: Upton-on-line reports on some of the ripples the terrorist attacks in the US have created on his side
of the Atlantic. See... Upton-on-line - Diaspora Edition [1]
Lindsay Perigo: Damn The Apologists
- I have long since gotten used to the fact that no matter how despicable the overtly disreputable enemies of reason & freedom become, their more respectable apologists will still make excuses for them. See... Lindsay Perigo: The Apologists for Evil [1]
Stateside: Power Is A Powerful Hypnotic
- To turn an intrinsic value that we take for granted every day into the excuse to devalue some other individual life
is to participate in giving up your agency as an individual. See... Stateside with Rosalea: To Whom It Does Concern [1]
Howard’s End: Ignored Warnings
- Historians of the future will record the recent terrorist attacks on the United States as an intelligence disaster
comparable not only to Pearl Harbour but also Hitler's attacks on the Soviet Union in 1941 that cost millions of Russian
casualties. See... Howard's End: Alarm Bells Unheeded [1]
