Let the Healing Begin - by Rick Simpson - Jack Herer MySpace Blog
When are people going to wake up and look at what the system has been doing to them? In 1923, the Canadian Government in all their wisdom passed laws restricting the use of Indian Hemp for medicinal purposes. Then in the 1930's they renamed Hemp "Marijuana" and proceeded to try to brainwash the public into believing that hemp was some new, dangerous, and addictive drug. Right up the present day the government has continued their smear campaign against hemp with no evidence to back up what they have been telling us.
Hemp is not a drug, it is a plant, and hemp is the most medicinal plant on Earth. Throughout history, hemp has always been known to be man's oldest known and safest medication. Also, the non-addictive nature of this plant has been known for thousands of years. In medicine hemp was known as a panacea, which means "cure-all" and the old pharmacopeias reflect this.
So why would our government pass laws to restrict the use of a plant that was known to possess all of these medicinal virtues? The answer is sickening, yet simple (big money). Governments' rich friends wanted hemp outlawed because hemp presented a danger to their monetary concerns. Laws are supposed to be put in place to do the greatest good for the greatest number; obviously this law restricting hemp's medicinal use is corrupt. more ...

Italia dall'Estero
Un sito dove persone di buona volontà si prendono la briga di tradurci articoli pubblicati dalla stampa estera, inerenti l'Italia. Un grande strumento per allargare l'orizzonte informativo negato in questo paese.
Riporto dal sito:
[In un Paese assordato dalle grida di chi vuole imporre la sua ragione, noi vogliamo dare un piccolo spazio alla silenziosa lettura di quel che scrivono osservatori lontani e distaccati. In questo sito troverete una raccolta aggiornata di articoli sull’Italia dei più importanti media internazionali di diverse orientazioni politiche tradotti in italiano. Per citare alcune lingue e giornali riportati: inglesi (Herald Tribunes, Economist, New York Times), tedeschi (Die Zeit, Neue Zürcher Zeitung, Wiener Zeitung), francesi (Le Monde Diplomatique, Le Monde) e svedesi (Göteborg Posten, Dagens Nyheter). Speriamo che questo nostro sito possa darvi un nuovo punto di vista, più ampio, creato da osservatori stranieri sul nostro paese e che possa nutrire la memoria per i tempi a venire.

W. Ross Wells, Film Director
When I was 5, my parents took me to Radio City where we saw Kubrick's masterpiece 2001: A Space Odyssey. That was almost 40 years ago and I still remember that night as if it was yesterday. The colors, the design, the frosty performances by Keir Dullea and Gary Lockwood...the first computer graphics. I think about some aspect of that film (and many others) almost everyday.
