        Red Book

        redbook

        The authors of the present book, who come from a country (Estonia) which has shared the fate of nations in the Russian and Soviet empires, endeavour to publicize the plight of the small nations whose very existence is threatened as a result of recent history. Perhaps it is not too late to give a supporting hand to them without an attempt at either ideological brainwashing or economic exploitation.

        Interesting.

                  According to the latest news the average surfer visits “just” 6 sites. Maybe proves that people don’t know rss and that the information gab or overload is still there?

                          U.S. Aligned With Iran in Anti-Gay Vote

                          (Washington, D.C., January 25, 2006) – In a reversal of policy, the United States on Monday backed an Iranian initiative to deny United Nations consultative status to organizations working to protect the rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) people.

                          In a letter to Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice, a coalition of 40 organizations, led by the Human Rights Campaign, Human Rights Watch, the International Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission, and the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, called for an explanation of the vote which aligned the United States with governments that have long repressed the rights of sexual minorities.

                                    Blog commenters, opinion makers.

                                    opinion

                                    European Commissioner Margot Wallström has recognized that new media commentors can be considered just as much opinion makers as normal media column writers and letter writers, sort of.

                                    Involved commenters are involved citizens?

                                                Now I just found the story online back again. The history just shows that speculating and fraude are not from yesterday.

                                                The question remains if we wise up from it.
