Body Pleasure and the Origins of Violence
"As a developmental neuropsychologist I have devoted a great deal of study to the peculiar relationship between violence and pleasure. I am now convinced that the deprivation of physical sensory pleasure is the principal root cause of violence...." [read more] Iraqi Prisoners Abused by US/UK Thugs "The report recommended that Brig. Gen. Janis Karpinski, commander of the Army Reserve's 800th Military Police Brigade, be disciplined for failing to ensure that guards under her command had clearly defined procedures and followed them. It listed 10 other alleged deficiencies in her command. Karpinski has already received a written "admonishment" from Sanchez." (Source: Seattle Times) "Deficiencies?" "Admonishment?"

SF COVERGENCE TIME/PLACE: We want people from the city to invade Burlingame! To ride Caltrain from SF to Burlingame, be at the SF station (4th and King) by (at latest) 3:30 pm in order to take the 3:37 pm train and arrive in Burlingame circa 4:07 pm. Come with us, to the Land o' the Yellow Ribbons!
What... The action itself will entail (hopefully) large numbers of people boarding mass transit (Caltrain) at once, and then disembarking at the Burlingame train depot. We'll meet up there and then march up Burlingame Avenue and through Burlingame and Hillsborough (one of the 5 richest towns in the nation) to our final destination, the Burlingame Country Club. The action will take place on Friday, April 30th, during DASW's "Days of Mourning and Resistance." It will be up to the participants as to how radical the march will be and what kinds of actions we will take. Why... The idea behind this action is to bring the reality of the people's discontent with the war to the suburbs, which usually are allowed to go along their merry, complacent way while we march through places like the Mission district where, for the most part, we're "preaching to the converted." Oftentimes, suburbanites live in near total isolation and alienation from the rest of the world. And they do so because they are allowed to do so. It is time the anti-war movement bring the philosophy of "no business as usual while the war goes on" to the wealthy oasis of Burlingame. Help is definitely still needed on this action. If you are at all interested, contact James by e-mail at splee2000@aol.com, or by phone at (650) 504-7848.
