  NOVANEWS   Government should announce a ceasefire date: Vara Vara Rao Rajeesh | August 8, 2010 | Categories: Uncategorized | URL: http://wp.me/pglpM-1St NISHIT DHOLABHAI New Delhi, Aug. 7: Maoist sympathiser Vara Vara Rao today said the rebels wanted the Centre to announce a “mutual ceasefire” date so that talks could be held. “We demand an immediate announcement of a ceasefire and ask the government to call back security forces. The government should announce a ceasefire date,” Rao told a news conference today. The poet said the Maoists felt there should be a “simultaneous and mutual ceasefire” as in Andhra Pradesh in 2004, instead of Chidambaram’s proposal for a 72-hour ceasefire by the rebels only. In 2004, the Maoists had announced a ceasefire in the morning and th...

  NOVANEWS   Dear,   The Senate isn't doing anything about tax giveaways to oil companies. But we are. Ending tax giveaways to oil companies won't happen without you.   I can't believe it. Did you hear? Yesterday, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) decided to pull the plug on passing any energy legislation before Congress went on vacation.1 What the hell does it take?!? We've had a five-month oil spill that has dumped over 200 million gallons of crude into the Gulf of Mexico and tar balls washing up on beaches in Florida, and still BP plans to claim billions in tax breaks. Meanwhile, Congress can't seem to hike its pants up, tie its shoes and find a real solution. Harry Reid and the Senate gave up. But we haven't.  Wednesday, we an...

NOVANEWS Somehow, the Chilcot Inquiry has become like Big Brother. About once a month it pops up as a small item in the news and you think: "Oh blimey, I didn't realise that was still going on." Before long, like Big Brother, they'll come up with stunts to try and revive some interest. So they'll reintroduce contestants from previous inquiries such as Martin McGuinness and Christine Keeler, or make some witnesses complete a task of finding hidden ping-pong balls in the room or they have to give evidence blindfold.  So it might seem these procedures are pointless, in which case it makes no difference that the Israelis have agreed to co-operate with a United Nations inquiry into the episode in which nine people died after the Israeli Defence Force went aboard the Mavi Marmara as it sailed to...

NOVANEWS by Gilad Atzmon Back in 2007 the notorious American Jewish right-wing organization, the ADL (Anti-Defamation League) announced that it recognised the events in which an estimated 1.5 million Armenians were massacred as “genocide.” The ADL’s national director, Abraham Foxman, insisted that he made the decision after discussing the matter with ‘historians’. For some reason he failed to mention who the historians were, nor did he refer to their credibility or field of scholarship. However, Foxman also consulted with one holocaust survivor who supported the decision.  It was Elie Wiesel, not known for being a leading world expert on the Armenian ordeal. The idea of a Zionist organization being genuinely concerned, or even slightly moved, by other people’s suffering could truly be a ...

NOVANEWS Dear,   We want to end the corporate handouts. Will you help? Help us raise $10,000 to launch an emergency campaign to Stop Big Oil's Bailout.   Did Congress and BP forget who was responsible for the Gulf oil spill? Seems that way to us, since BP not only is asking the government to do most of the cleanup work but also is going after OUR tax dollars for their own coffers. They're trying to take a $10 billion tax deduction as a result of the spill.1 That's only the latest handout. Before the disaster, BP was already getting a quarter million dollars per day in tax breaks for leasing the Deepwater Horizon well. AND the other oil companies are in on the game too, avoiding about $4 billion in taxes every year.2 So, how do we fix it? We think it's time to sto...
