    <TD class=px15 width=400><B>For years, Nike was the undisputed champion of 
      logo culture, its swoosh an instant symbol of global cool. Today, Phil

      activists and culture jammers fought back against mindfuck marketing and 
      dirty sweatshop labor.<BR><BR>Now a final challenge. We take on Phil at

      game. The swoosh versus the anti-swoosh. Which side are you 
      on?<BR><BR>Adbusters has been doing R&amp;D for more than a year, and 
      guess what? Making a shoe - a good shoe - isn't exactly rocket science. 
      With a network of supporters, we're getting ready to launch the

      help launch the <I>blackSpot</I> revolution.<BR><BR>THE BIG

what
kind of family setup and society it will create, a society where there
are no rules, rules are any rules can be broken and human values have no
importance what so ever when it comes to success and failure. Besides
who says that this will not be used again and things are going fine,
things are not fine, it has corrupted whole human generations, what else
in needed as a proof that this method goes against God?s desired path. 

Besides even if you ask the "good people" they will accept that
corruption exists, and I know that many times bad guys have used there
influence to corrupt those they couldn?t corrupt themselves (proof to
follow insha?Allah). I personally think that using unlawful relationship
is inhuman and goes against any decent religion and this practise should
be completely abolished. It is amazing that religious leaders would go
to such length to stop one war or another but would not say a word and
would not encourage rallies to stop this inhuman practise by secret
services.

May God bring unbiased justice and truth back to this world, may God
