NGO Monitor - Human Rights NGOs - Arab Israeli Conflict The Ford Foundation is investigating HIC's partisan and anti-Israel ideological agenda, to ensure that Ford funds no longer go to "groups that promote or condone bigotry or violence, or that challenge the very existence of legitimate, sovereign states like Israel." In reality, Hamoked's activities reflect a highly politicized anti-Israel agenda, including indifference to Israeli casualties and an empathy towards Palestinian terrorists in its distorted and unbalanced reports. Blatant anti-Israel articles appear in its news section and documents section, including an "historical overview" from the 2001 Durban Conference comparing the "legal mechanisms in Israel" to those of "the apartheid regime in South Africa," and noting that such mechanisms "reflect the racism at the base of the state's colonial ideology." www.ngo-monitor.org /archives/infofile.htm

German Anti-Partisan Operations in the Russian Theater During WW II The German District Commander assigned the task of destroying the partisan forces to a bicycle-mounted infantry battalion temporarily withdrawn from the front and reassigned to his sector to conduct anti-partisan operations.  Once he had received his mission and conducted his planning, the Battalion Commander issued his operations order to his battalion.  The battalion also had a motorized supply section, an attached signal platoon and a battalion headquarters section.  Using the highly mobile and heavily armed infantry battalion in the attack against the partisan headquarters in Daliki, utilized the principals of mobility, and concentrated firepower, the Germans had learned in previous anti-partisan operations.  Therefore, by 1943, German attempts at surprising the partisans and forcing them into a conventional battle was difficult to achieve due to the excellent Russian intelligence network. www.globalterrorism101.com /articleGermanAntiPartisanOps.html

Rochester Ladies' Anti-Slavery Society Records "Slavery," according to the constitution of the Rochester Ladies' Anti-Slavery Society, "is an evil that ought not to exist, and is a violation of the inalienable rights of man." In the summer of 1851, notices were distributed throughout Rochester, N.Y., to gather together any women interested in becoming active in the antislavery cause. As a society devoted to the immediate abolition of slavery, the antislavery movement forms the context of most of the correspondence in the collection, but the members of the society were individually and collectively involved in the education of freedmen and in other movements, including women's rights. At the end of the war, with the formal abolition of slavery and the establishment of the Freedmen's Bureau, the edge was taken off the urgency of the (now) Rochester Ladies' Anti-Slavery and Freedmen's Aid Society, and the Society fairly rapidly dissolved. www.clements.umich.edu /Webguides/QR/Rochester.html   (1588 words)

FT Januray 2000: A Tragic Conflict Partisan Review was then in its heyday as one of America’s leading journals of politics and culture, decidedly left of center and yet consistently anti—Stalinist. Several pieces revolve around the Hiss—Chambers case, and the final section reflects on the fate of "liberal anti—communism" as found in the Congress for Cultural Freedom, the New Republic, and Partisan Review. While attending a program known as the "School of Letters" in Indiana—where he had gone to study Dante with Allen Tate and Shakespeare with Francis Fergusson—the young Kramer met Philip Rahv, one of the founding editors of Partisan Review. www.firstthings.com /ftissues/ft0001/reviews/wolfe.html   (1588 words)

The Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America Rival unions attempting to undermine the ACWA; anti-Roosevelt political interests attempting to sabotage labor and preserve profit; a Supreme Court which disallowed legislation beneficial to the ACWA; the feared influence of fascism; all of these forces opposed the union and served to reinforce its solidarity. Since Roosevelt battled against forces the ACWA considered anti-labor--the Supreme Court, individual political opponents, the reactionary press, industrialists--the union held common ground with Roosevelt. Union cooperation with manufacturers increased efficiency and production. www.m3ip.org /~mhpm/academic/acwa.html   (1588 words)

Peter Wood on Partisan Review on National Review Online Partisan Review was a force to be reckoned with from the late 1930s to the early 1960s. This was a painful time for Partisan mostly because it had fallen so far behind the dance of cultural politics — a dance in which it had once been among the leading figures. When Edith Kurzweil, the editor of Partisan Review, learned that Boston University Chancellor John Silber was closing the journal, she told me that I'd get a kill fee for my unused review of a book by John Lukacs. www.nationalreview.com /comment/comment-wood042903.asp   (911 words)

The Partisan #8 As the Partisan went to press, we learned that Ralph Nader had authorized papers to be taken out so that he could be run as a write-in candidate in the Peace and Freedom Party presidential preference primary, as well as those of the Democratic, Republican, Libertarian and Reform Parties. As the Partisan goes to press, demonstrations, forums and teach-ins are planned for over 100 colleges and universities across the nation in the period from March 14 through early April. The Partisan is published by the State Central Committee of the Peace and Freedom Party at P.O.

FAIR ACTION ALERT: Sinclair's Partisan Ploy Cries Out for Equal Time In an unprecedented move, the Republican-friendly Sinclair Broadcasting company has ordered its 62 television stations to preempt regular prime-time broadcasting to air the anti-John Kerry documentary "Stolen Honor: Wounds That Never Heal" just two weeks before the election. ACTION: Please call Sinclair Broadcasting and tell them that if it airs a partisan documentary attacking a presidential candidate just before the election, then it should give equal time to a documentary from an opposing perspective, like "Going Upriver."

Southern Partisan magazine: Taking Sides [Free Republic] Southern Partisan 's current delays are due in part to editor Chris Sullivan's activities on behalf of some political candidates last year, and in part due to the crash and complete loss of the hard drives of two of Southern Partisan 's computers. Southern Partisan has operated quietly for most of its 21-year history, publishing a quarterly magazine described by its editors as equal parts of the conservative criticism from the National Review, the historical word-pictures from Civil War Times Illustrated, and the recipes and travelogues from Southern Living. In deference to FR's ban on advertising, it's hard to justify lauding the Southern Partisan journal except to say it's worthy of belonging to the conservative ring of publications and should appeal to all grass-roots conservatives, Southern or not. www.freerepublic.com /forum/a3a7ec1623554.htm   (817 words)

Peter Wood on Partisan Review on National Review Online Partisan Review was a force to be reckoned with from the late 1930s to the early 1960s. Partisan Review taught a generation or two of intellectuals how to engage in intelligent cultural criticism.

False Objectivity in Science Reporting - Center for American Progress Science is a highly partisan and politicized issue, and both sides in the climate debate claim scientific support for their positions. Science isn't a democracy, and in practice, one side in a scientific debate is often much more reputable than another. And while career science writers may be well informed about the issues they cover, they may also feel compelled by journalistic canons to present the "other side" even when scientists themselves have stopped taking that side seriously. www.americanprogress.org /site/pp.asp?c=biJRJ8OVF&b=67755   (817 words)

tito.txt From turn 3 to turn 14 (before the arrival of the Soviet reinforcements for the Yugoslavian player), the Axis player may decide to launch an anti-guerrilla operation that gives him favorable modifiers in combat against the partisan, but these operations are limited by a chit draw before the start of the game. Other than in the first two turns (which limit the movement of the combat units of both sides inside the zones they occupy at start), a partisan unit may move and have combat in each zone (and objectives inside) adjacent to the one they start (and in that zone too). And this is probably the greatest limitation (certainly, not a minor one) of a game really peculiar, fascinating in several of his aspects, but probably flawed in his basement. grognard.com /reviews1/tito.txt   (817 words)

IPA Press Release: Southern Partisan T-Shirt Identical to One Worn By Timothy McVeigh at Time of Arrest Southern Partisan General Store sends out form letter stating: "Due to a surprising demand for our anti-Lincoln T-shirt, our stock has been reduced to odd sizes. Southern Partisan sells T-shirts celebrating the Lincoln assassination with a quote from John Wilkes Booth ("Sic Semper Tyrannis") on the front, and Jefferson's quote about liberty requiring "the blood of patriots and tyrants" on the back. Timothy McVeigh is arrested after bombing the Oklahoma City federal building, wearing a T-shirt identical to the one sold by Southern Partisan. www.accuracy.org /press_releases/PR011501b.htm   (817 words)

Telegraph News William Phillips Partisan Review was then published under the auspices of Rutgers University, which provided Phillips with a professorship in the English department. While the pages of Partisan Review were a forum for political and intellectual controversy, its offices were a hotbed of gossip, intrigue and back-stabbing, and of "off-hours boozing and competitive sex". By the late 1960s, most of Partisan Review's best writers had moved on, many to cosy jobs in the academic and literary establishment, and Rahv, increasingly bored with the whole exercise, left Phillips with most of the burden of editing the magazine. www.telegraph.co.uk /news/main.jhtml?xml=%2Fnews%2F2002%2F09%2F17%2Fdb1702.xml   (817 words)

Guardian William Phillips The Partisan Review's intention was to ally anti-Stalinist politics with modernism - many of whose exponents, such as Eliot, were now far from the left - while fostering tradition (the first issue included a piece by Edmund Wilson on Flaubert). As Phillips put it, a distinct element in the Partisan Review was "its literary and cultural criticism, with an emphasis, particularly in the 1940s, on the relation of social questions to matters of text". The Partisan Review became vital again in the 1960s, when it published such names as Norman Mailer and Susan Sontag, with her essay, Notes On Camp. www.guardian.co.uk /print/0,3858,4504798-103684,00.html   (817 words)

The Growth of the Anti-Communist Network Moreover, because of the Roosevelt administration's sympathy for the CIO, anticommunism became a partisan issue. Even the American Civil Liberties Union turned anti-Communist and expelled a leading party figure from its board of directors. His vision of the Communist menace extended far beyond the Communist party to almost any group that challenged the established social, economic, or racial order, and he was to dedicate his entire professional career to combating that menace. www.writing.upenn.edu /~afilreis/50s/anticom-network.html   (817 words)

The Growth of the Anti-Communist Network Moreover, because of the Roosevelt administration's sympathy for the CIO, anticommunism became a partisan issue. The obsessive anticommunism of FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover may well have been typical of the beliefs of the nation's law enforcement agents. Certainly, it is not hard to conceive of the existence of the countersubversive tradition as a subterranean source of popular irrationality and xenophobia that could be exploited by ambitious politicians or special-interest groups to direct hostility against the opponents of their choice. www.writing.upenn.edu /~afilreis/50s/anticom-network.html   (2758 words)

Paradox Interactive Forums - Game Feature #1 Explanation - 29th of November Assign units to anti-partisan duty, where they will suppress the partisan activity, and if there is an uprising nearby, they will automatically move and eliminate it, before returning to their base.

index-ZiemiLubelskiej.html The battle had a following course: the joint Soviet-Polish partisan grouping stopped for a rest in the village of Majdan Sitaniecki, Powiat of Zamosc, after having fought just the previous day (on 02 April of 1944) the Germans conducting an anti-partisan operation in the area of Kukawka. Noticing this, the Germans organized an ambush; a sudden engagement resulted, but unexpectedly a Soviet partisan detachment was marching un-noticed nearby, and it was these Soviet partisans who made a surprise attack on the ambushing Germans from the back. During this battle the 5th and 9th Company, together with part of Lavrov's Soviet partisan company, launched several counter-attacks that pushed the Germans back. wolnapolska.boom.ru /index-ZiemiLubelskiej.html   (2758 words)

A regular writer for the Southern Partisan. "Is the White Southerner Ready For Equality?" Expresses that Southern Nationalism will not make progress if it is "anti-black." Reed is perplexed and annoyed that various Neo-Confederate groups are racists. Given who made up Reed's fellow editorial staff at the Southern Partisan, it has to be wondered who did Reed think he was working with? 30, where in heading of the article it mentions that he wrote for the Southern Partisan under the name J.

The Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History. The Collection. Newly Discovered Documents The article went on to explain Hamilton's corrupt system that disqualified anti-administration candidates from public office, controlled the public press through government favors and contracts, and gave large sums of money by legal trickery to public officers for private use. He took full advantage of the freedom of the press outlined in the Bill of Rights, as did his innumerable enemies. Considering this background it is not surprising that a letter of Hamilton's has emerged that speaks forcefully about bringing a slander suit against the newspaper. www.gilderlehrman.org /collection/docs_archive_partisan.html   (1245 words)

DATELINE YUGOSLAVIA: THE PARTISAN PRESS "The American press has become very partisan and anti-Serbian. "I've worked with the press for a long time, and I have never seen so much lack of professionalism and ethnics in the press," and another, "Especially by the American press, there is an extremely hostile style of reporting." "A kind of nihilism has been established," said yet another U.N. official. Yet, unlike the controlled press in Zagreb, it was remarkable how domestic and foreign media through mid-1993 continued to lambaste the Serbian government. www.balkan-archive.org.yu /kosta/mediji/mediji-dateline_yugoslavia_the_partisan_press-WI9394-peter_brock-foreign_policy.html   (6372 words)

Partisan Press Wants YOU Depressed We now have a press that is anti-conservative(Republican) and has no qualms in creating false news in order to promote a socialist agenda to the masses. They want you thinking that the mainstream press is still all-powerful, all-dominant, and no matter what inroads we gain, no matter what desires we have, we're going to be cut down. I warned you about not falling for the tricks of the press this week and their constant alliance with Kerry and their attempt to suppress the vote. www.freerepublic.com /focus/f-news/1257600/posts   (3477 words)

Holocaust Revisionism and Neo-Naziism The new anti-gay Holocaust revisionism alleges that gay men were not particularly persecuted under the German Nazi regime, and additionally, that homosexual men were especially prevalent in the ranks of German Naziism, and were in large part, the motivators of the Jewish Holocaust. While not, in any way attempting to diminish the repugnance of 'traditional' anti-Semitic Holocaust revisionism, this new form of Holocaust revisionism poses a grave danger insofar as it is sponsored and endorsed by groups which are (marginally) closer to the political center than those groups which promulgate 'traditional' Holocaust revisionism. These groups have also shown, through the several anti-gay Oregon ballot initiatives, and the Colorado amendment two, that they are able and willing to influence public opinion to persecute gay men and lesbians. www.qrd.org /qrd/www/RRR/revision.html   (3477 words)

california patriot blog » Pro-Life or Anti-Life Judges? Changing federal law to prevent moving people off of feeding tubes (even when they don’t have a cerebral cortext) would have at least been consistent with some overarching conservative ideology, and not be such an obvious partisan attempt to curry favor with right wing anti-abortion extremists. Yes, the federal government should remain out of one’s “personal life.” However, the reason the federal government was created was to ensure that everyone has the basic liberties of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. First, if scientists know which cells and what parts of the brain are necessary for a person to feel pain, and someone doesn’t have that part of their brain, then it’s isn’t exactly conjecture to say that a person doesn’t feel pain. www.calpatriot.org /blog/index.php?p=193   (3477 words)

Partisan Review Now that the legitimacy of their opposition to Communism has been affirmed by historical events, it is time to stop confusing their anti-Communism with support of McCarthyism. Trying to steer a careful middle ground between acquiescence to demagoguery and the violation of civil liberties on the one hand, and softness towards totalitarianism and Communism on the other, their position was found to be unsatisfactory by those on both the hard left and far right. Joining the effort to uproot Communism was not a bad policy, and would not contribute to a climate of fear. www.bu.edu /partisanreview/archive/2000/4/radosh.html   (5037 words)

Catholic League (U.S.) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The non-partisan Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights is nation’s largest Catholic civil rights organization, with the mission of defending the civil and religious rights of Catholics in the United States to participate in American public life without defamation or discrimination. The League issues a journal, Catalyst, as well as reports, such as "Pope Pius XII and the Holocaust", books/brochures and an annual Report on Anti-Catholicism. This often places the league at odds with other civil rights groups such as the ACLU that advocate for legalized abortion, marriage for homosexual couples, and the suppression of many public references to religion. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Catholic_League_(USA)   (514 words)

Air Force Document Envisions Variety of Anti-Satellite Weapons The anti-satellite weapons described in the report are likely to draw interest on Capitol Hill, where members of Congress and their staffs are generally divided along partisan lines on the issue. Republicans on the committees that oversee the Pentagon tend to believe that anti-satellite weapons will be needed to ensure that enemy nations do not use space to the same advantage that the U.S. military did in Afghanistan and Iraq, one staffer said. The Air Force plan also envisions a space-based radio frequency energy weapon, described as a constellation of satellites that would "disrupt/destroy/disable a wide variety of electronics and national level command and control systems." Such a system would "typically be used as a non-kinetic anti-satellite weapon," the plan said. www.space.com /spacenews/archive04/weaponsarch_030104.html   (651 words)
