Stop the Extradition of Marc Hall!

http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/826/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=2217

The US military plans to extradite a stop-lossed Iraq war veteran to Iraq "within a few days" to face a court martial for allegedly threatening military officers in a protest rap song he made. Spc. Marc Hall has been jailed in the Liberty County Jail near Fort Stewart, Ga., since Dec. 11 because he wrote a song called "Stop Loss" about the practice of involuntarily extending military members'  contracts.

Marc served 14 months honorably in Iraq. Learn more about his story here.

Using stop loss orders, the US military has stopped about 185,000 soldiers from leaving the military since 2001. An additional 13,000 troops are now serving under stop-loss orders. President Obama said he thinks the practice should be stopped.

Internationalist Communist Group (ICG)

Barricades made out of bodies. This is what proletarians of Port-au-Prince erected across the streets eight days after the earthquake. It is said that "they protest against glaring lack of emergency relief". How not to see, beyond this obviousness that media prefer to hold on to, what these proletarians surviving on borrowed time proclaim to the face of this society, of its dominant class, but also to all of its decent citizens: these are your deaths,

Haiti On Our Minds

posted at www.uruknet.de
Mumia Abu-Jamal
January 27, 2010 - ... Haiti, we are informed by the corporate media, is the poorest nation in the West. We are never told however, how it got that way. How many of us know that the U.S. brutally occupied Haiti, and stayed there for over 20 years? Or that Haiti, which had the temerity to defeat not one, not two, but three colonial armies (the French, the British, and the Spanish), was forced to pay France billions of dollars in reparations for 200 years -- the first and only time in history that a victor in war had to pay back the nation it defeated!? Haiti isn't just poor; it's been impoverished by a global system of exploitation and a plantation capitalist economy that was designed as a sanction for Black Liberation...
