It seems that some of the links I pasted didn't paste into the text properly. In addition, some phrases magically disappeared. Most weird. I'll try again. The link for the petition to the Iranian government to free the jailed trade union leader:

href="http://www.labourstart.org/cgi-bin/solidarityforever/show_campaign.cgi?c=167">Iranian trade union leader

another link I tried to make was to 'projectforanewamericancentury.org' but not only is the page notoriously difficult to load, the very words "project...." disappeared from the text of my post. Ah well. Gremlins again.

Teribus: here's one further intersting article by Jimmy Carter on Israel:
