| To initiate a war of aggression, therefore, is not only an international crime, it is the supreme international crime differing only from other war crimes in that it contains within itself the accumulated evil of the whole. -- The Judgment of the Nuremberg Tribunal, 1946 - War Crimes Law Applies to Us Too, Walter J. Rockler, Lawyer and Prosecutor at Nuremburg, ZMag |

Fact |
Any violation of any treaty entered into under the authority of the United States is also a violation the Constitution of the United States. Therefore, to violate the United Nations Charter by starting a war without the approval of the United Nations Security Council would be a violation of the Constitution of the United States. |
-- The Constitution of the United States of America, Article VI, The Library of Congress, September 17th, 1787

Be The Media |
 In 1988
Noam
Chomsky and Edward
S. Herman published Manufacturing
Consent which illustrated in undeniable detail how media moguls
defend the economic, social, and political agendas of privileged elites.
The picture they painted was bleak and dark, but today, light from media
savvy citizens strikes
the canvas with diverse, copyleft
content, low-tech and Do
It Yourself (DIY) solutions, and blistering global growth.

"Be the Media" feels much less theoretical after you personally post a photo or audio clip to your local Independent Media Center's (IMC) open publishing newswire. The Media Democracy movement faces broad oposition from established government and private sector players, but given the production-quality independent media available today (tv [broadcast | internet], satellite, radio, internet, print), and the falling costs of used DIY equipment, the future for media diversity looks bright. So write up an Op-Ed article on issue you feel strongly about or do some research and write a report. Ask your neighboors about your community, report on a city council meeting, write an article. Photograph problems and solutions, videotape a concert or a police action. Start a weblog in which to publish your work, or post it here, here, here, here, here, or here. -- Be the Media. In Addition to the resources linked to above, here are a few more to get you started:
