- tHE END OF THE WILDCATS OF JAPAN
: Japan's Unholy Worhship of Big Business Wins Again
27 April 2007, Asiana Press Agency.
(the wild cats of Iriomote Island
have never inhabited the Iriomote National Park, a mountainous reserve designated in their favor in 1972. Maybe this has begun to change. The bulldozers have plowed up the coastal zone, pushed the forested hills into ravines and swamps, cleared the debris. Big industry planted pineapples and sugar cane. Big tourism planted resorts. As their natural habitat disappears, the rare Iriomote Wild Cats are being forced to adapt or die. - see also: http//:www.Asiana-Press-Agency.com)

- LITTLE SOMAN's LITTLE WAR
: And other portraits by an American Journalist in Afghanistan
Published by Kyoto Journal, No. 67, Summer 2007. (Dead army tanks are everywhere here. One supposes they are dead. There are dead tanks in villages, sunk in streams, crossing fields, sleeping on hills, burrowing into the wind-swept land like crabs at the beach. In some towns the chunky steel tracks of tanks lie across roads as speed bumps. The dead tanks are like beacons of hopelessness, monuments to the failure of international peace and cooperation. - see also: http://www.kyotojournal.org/kjselections/soman.html)

- STOP US TERRORISM AGAINST IRAN
: Stop the Pentagon's War or Profits and Terrorism Against the Islamic World
the US foreign policy position on Iran is yet the latest thrust in the American war OF terror against independent & sovereign nations and their people. Any concern by people of the United States about nuclear weapons should be focused on the world's leading purveyor of nuclear terrorism: the United States military and civilian nuclear weapons and power complex.

- KALACHAKRA 2006: A Prayer for Andhra Pradesh
: Fifteen Days with the Dalai Lama
Amaravathi, India: 5-16 January 2006
(All things pass... I left Amaravathi the way I arrived: on my bicycle. The Kalachakra Empowerment Ritual was over. My faithful bike has toured me all over the world, and with between 100,000 to 150,000 people exiting the Kalachakra at once, and with trains in all directions sold out through the end of the month, here was my liberation from suffering.
The first 50 kilometers it was me and the sky, a few birds, poor farmers with ox carts, some flooded rice paddies, but tranquil nature turned into an industrial war zone - a sad, beaten, exploited land, and a beautiful, smiling people, abandoned and desperate. - see also: http://www.kyotojournal.org/)

- GEORGE BUSH's SHOTGUN VISIT TO AFGHANISTAN
: A Personal Commentary
Reported from Kabul, Afghanistan, 6 March 2006. (there was no waffling about George Bush's shotgun visit to Afghanistan last week. Bush sneaked into Afghanistan at midnight. In Kabul, the capital, they rolled out the red carpet. Mr. Bush pulled the proper strings and an animated President Karzai praised his puppeteers. It's curious that George Bush didn't treat Mr. Karzai to one of his characteristic Christian prayer breakfasts. Mr. Bush choppered back and saluted his toy soldiers at the Bagram Air Force Base before departing, a few hours after arrival. )
