The death toll from the Philippines worst politically-linked massacre has risen to fifty-seven. The victims were abducted as they were traveling to nominate an opposition candidate for governor in upcoming elections.The dead include 18 Filipino journalists from regional newspapers. Its believed to be the highest number of reporters killed in a single attack anywhere in the world. We speak with Walden Bello, an Akbayan Representative in the Filipino Congress.
"The common enemy of humanity is man. In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill. All these dangers are caused by human intervention, and it is only through changed attitudes and behavior that they can be overcome. The real enemy then, is humanity itself." -Club of Rome, Environmental Think-Tank Consultants to the United Nations

This is so disgusting. Anyone believing that this problem is man made and thus a taxable event on all the world (enforced by UN) is atrocious!
Haven't these people heard the news? Man Made Global warming thing has been hacked and labeled for what it really is... a HOAX!
