The Guardian has continued its war on WikiLeaks with three new attacks over 48 hours—five days before Julian Assange’s final extradition appeal judgement in the High Court and a UK Parliamentary debate and vote on extradition abuses (both Monday, December 5). While it is often counter-productive to divert resources to dealing with PR attacks head-on, we provide here a revealing window into the behind-the-scenes realities that WikiLeaks has to deal with every day as a result of its high profile. While many attacks come from "traditional" enemies — the organizations WikiLeaks has exposed — others come from opportunists trying to work an easy socio-political sector — apparently saying what they believe these powerful enemies would like to be said, in the hope of preferment or relief in other areas. Others still, in fear of their reputations or the legal process, seek to whitewash past opportunism before natural moral or legal redress. http://www.makeahistory.com/index.php/free-stuff/43033-guardian-pr-war-against-wikileaks-qwikileaks-secrets-and-liesq-guardian-documentaryThe Guardian has continued its war on WikiLeaks with three new attacks over 48... more

In January 2008 some members of an Internet-based collective known as Anonymous began actions against the Church of Scientology that are continuing. They designated their collective action “Project Chanology.” The originations of Project Chanology, its structure, its decision-making process, and its methods of protesting are collectively unique. Project Chanology shows the new types of social networking and activism that can spring from the instant communication the Internet provides. Understanding Project Chanology will provide a template for understanding such future movements and their actions........ http://www.makeahistory.com/index.php/recent-news/42986-the-war-hackers-vs-scientology-project-chanologyIn January 2008 some members of an Internet-based collective known as Anonymous began... more

It's a common conceit among Christians that their religion was in opposition to the Nazi regime of Germany. The truth, however, is that most Christians either went along with the Nazis or actively supported them. Just about the only Christian group that opposed the Nazis - and paid for it - were the Jehovah's Witnesses. How many other Christians supported them? http://www.makeahistory.com/index.php/recent-news/393-resistance-to-hitler-It's a common conceit among Christians that their religion was in opposition to... more

Men are more likely to tell lies than women and feel less guilty about it, says a survey.
In a poll of 3,000 people, researchers found that the average British man tells three lies every day, that's equivalent to 1,092 a year.
However the average woman appears more honest, lying 728 times a year - around twice a day.
Mums are the people mostly likely to be lied to, says the Science Museum who commissioned the survey.
Twenty-five per cent of men say they've lied to their mother, but only 20% of women admit to having lied to their mum.

I'm going on a tour of Canada and the US with the bands Propagandhi and Strike Anywhere to educate, organize, and mobilize people to stop a disastrous oil project called the Tar Sands. Every night I'll be speaking with the bands on stage, working with teams of volunteers and the organization Substance to get hundreds of people to sign up to join our campaign, take actions locally, recruit for different local organizations, screen slideshows and films, distribute literature and information, and even sing songs. Here is the first of our adventures.
