US Social Forum started today in Detroit
An activist report from the Gulf on the expanding BP disaster: we’ll get an in-depth report on the growing civilian casualties in the Afpak War, as the US Commander there tenders his resignation; and we’ll have a report on how the mainstream press demonized a military whistle-blower instead of supporting and welcoming his courage; and Jesse Strauss reports in Up front from the second US Social Forum.
