POPSSMOKING AND CIVIL RIGHTS
On a practical level, there is simply no reason for the ban on American smokers. The "Public Health" argument, deployed by the EPA, is unconscionably flawed4 and distressingly familiar. Public Health as a rationale for legislation and segregation has a long and dishonorable record. Till the end of the 1950's, the identical kinds of arguments--the "menace to public health"--supported racial discrimination. It was widely accepted and officially tossed around that if a black person and a white person drank for the same fountain, rested in the same rest room, or ate from the same plate--even though the plate had been washed in between--poor whitey would catch his death. In the course of our history, the banner of Public Health--"statistically proven" and trumpeted by the press--has been used to discriminate--also to legislate--against the Chinese, the Italians, the Irish and the Jews...who've been fingered as the "causes" of polio, cholera, TB and bubonic plague.5 This is simply an old hus

POPSlove in the time of crimes & cholera Furaha and her husband, Hakiza, both 30, fled with their two sons and two daughters to a makeshift camp, Kuhindo, in the eastern hills of the Democratic Republic of Congo. It lacks water, toilets and food but it is in a relatively safe part of this war-racked region. Laurent Nkunda, rebel leader, was arrested during a surprise joint operation by Rwandan and Congolese government troops. He is currently in Rwanda awaiting extradition to DR Congo. Circumstances apparently shifted after Nkunda's forces were accused of committing war crimes, and Paul Kagame, the Rwandan president - under pressure for the West - struck a deal with Joseph Kabila, the DR Congo president, last month.

POPSMugabe Unleashes Wave of Terror with Mass Abductions Robert Mugabe is a 'dictator in democratic clothing'. The South African Development Community has been urging Mugabe to address the cholera epidemic (which he refuses to acknowledge) and the economic crisis (which he helped create). The U.S. recently gave $600,000 to fight the cholera epidemic. Any aid sent to this country ends up in the pockets and mouths of the ruling elite. Recent elections were marred with violence and intimidation designed to keep Mugabe in office. 'International pressure' and 'sanctions' are not changing anything in Zimbabwe. How can the world stand by and allow this humanitarian crisis to continue? We need a mechanism to rid ourselves of this vermin not give them aid.
