<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
Knight's Nike is a fading empire, badly hurt by years of "brand damage" as
activists and culture jammers fought back against mindfuck marketing and
dirty sweatshop labor.<BR><BR>Now a final challenge. We take on Phil at
his own game - and win. We turn the shoes we wear into a counterbranding
game. The swoosh versus the anti-swoosh. Which side are you
on?<BR><BR>Adbusters has been doing R&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
<I>blackSpot</I> sneaker, the world's first grassroots anti-brand. You can
help launch the <I>blackSpot</I> revolution.<BR><BR>THE BIG
QUESTION:<BR>Is it possible to take Phil Knight's billion-dollar marketing
momentum and, in a quick judo-like move, slap him onto the mat with the
power of his own PR thrust?<BR><BR><A

knows Saddam is not a good man.
Yet the issue is not Iraq the real issue will stay in background as
people have to think about something and their attention can be diverted
unlike mine, the real issue is issue of Palestine and systematic inhuman
destruction of other race but Israel, may be they should be reminded
that what happened to them in Germany was not Arab?s fault.

it rather be us thinking about ourselves than we asking for justice and
truth.
But this also brings us to an issue, why can people be direct, honest
and just live in the real world, after all those coward chickens who
control information and events will never be direct, because they know
they are wrong, they can only play indirect games, and if you obey God
properly they can?t do anything to harm you.
Though these are my thoughts but like always they can be wrong, if so
may God forgive me and hope others correct me. May God bring the day
when we become honest, truthful people with Haya and may God give us all
enough courage to ask for unbiased justice and truth. May God give all
the Muslims ability to pray and ability to unite.

Assalam u?Alekum all :) Before we start this topic I would like to let
all of you know that our religion Islam no matter what it is does not
allow us to play tricks and cheat others no matter what. I would like to
applogise to anyone who may get hurt after reading this, look I don?t
have anything against anyone I can only tell you what I heard and know.
Realities are far more different than ordinary people no matter who and
where they can think and imagine. If I am wrong, please correct me :)
Jews believe that their race spreads through their women, what it means
it if you get marry with one and she converts to Islam as well, for Jews
the children would still be Jews. Though I am not
