Extractions: Afghanistan: "First execution since fall of Taliban" Amnesty International today (26 April 2004) expressed shock at news of the first judicial execution known to have been carried out in Kabul since the fall of the Taliban. Abdullah Shah, a military commander from Paghman, was executed on approximately 19 April. Amnesty International urges President Karzai to declare a formal moratorium on executions in line with assurances given to Amnesty International in 2003. Over the past year, Amnesty International has extensively documented the many failings of the criminal justice system in Afghanistan. The system is currently incapable of fulfilling even the most basic standards for fair trials as stressed by the United Nations Special Rapporteur on extrajudicial, summary or arbitrary executions, following her observance of Abdullah Shah's trial proceedings. Amnesty International fears that Abdullah Shah's execution may have been an attempt by powerful political players to eliminate a key witness to human rights abuses. During his detention, Abdullah Shah reportedly revealed first hand evidence against several regional commanders currently in positions of power against whom no charges have been brought. They are among the scores of other Afghans implicated in serious crimes, including war crimes and crimes against humanity. The lack of a fair and independent mechanism to deal with such crimes means that most of the accused have not been brought to justice and remain in positions of power from which they continue to threaten the Afghan population. This is of particular concern in the context of upcoming elections due to be held in September 2004 when it is believed that several of these individuals will be standing for political office.

Banner decries what he sees as today's prevailing "smug condescension" to history, and states that executing a fellow human in the 17th and 18th centuries, though exponentially more common than today, was "just as momentous" an act.

But whether or not you oppose capital punishment, The World's Marco Werman says there are some pretty ear catching tunes on "The Executioner's Last Songs." Marco Werman: The independent rock scene known as alt country has the spirit of British punk and the rootsiness of American country. And that rockabilly swagger comes roaring through on the newly released CD "The Executioner's Last Songs." Welshman and, now, Chicago resident Jon Langford is one of the founders of the longest, and still running punk bands, The Mekons. And along with his other musical outfit The Waco Brothers, Langford is also a big player in the alt country scene. But it's under the marquee of the musical collaborative The Pine Valley Cosmonauts that Jon Langford organized and produced his anti-death penalty recording. "The Executioner's Last Songs" says Langford is not intended to be a collection of protest songs per se.

When I looked into the one entitled "alt.activism.deathpenalty" I found a diverse meeting place for people who want ot voice their opinion on the hot issue of capital punishment. The age group seemed to vary, but there were a lot of adults that were extremely knowledgable on the subject. It is a rather large forum with almost one hundred messages to browse through from 'net-surfers everywhere. Most of the subscribers seem to be in favor of capital punishment, but the newsgroup is not only for people who share that opinion. Along with the intelligent discussions on the death penalty that range from political to personal views, many arguments take place as well. Some of the subject lines take a radical standpoint such as the one entitled "HANG THE BASTARDS HIGH!" while others are more subtle in voicing their beliefs. I found a lot of perceptive feedback in this newsgruop on the death penalty and why it should be kept legal. Some of the entries contained background information on capital punishment, some were updates on executions taking place (or NOT taking place), and others were personal accounts of people who had lost loved ones to violent crimes. Whether you are interested in reading about opposing beliefs on capital punishment, voicing your own opinion, or even looking for a source of information for a paper, the newsgroup alt.activism. deathpenalty is an excellent place to look.

Extractions: A first-rate, heartfelt roots-folk tribute to the acoustic bluesman Mississippi John Hurt, who was one of the great rediscoveries of the '60s folk scene... Spearheaded by Peter Case, this is a captivating and effective album, with performances by some of the best roots musicians around folks such as Lucinda Williams, Dave Alvin, Ben Harper and Steve Earle, and even slumming indiepopstars like Beck... The ever-naifish Victoria Williams chirps her way along, as well as Gillian Welch, who does an atypically goofy rendition of the gospel-tinged "Beulah Land". What marks this album is it's near-total lack of the stiff self-consciousness with which folkies have approached blues material in the last few decades these artists all "get" the easygoing, playful vibe that made Hurt such an appealling performer, lo those many years ago. Good stuff! Recommended!
