[Peace] Speaker co-sponsorship opportunity

[ndahlhei at uiuc.edu]

Dear AWARE peace list,
    My name is Nick Dahlheim, a junior in political science.  
This past year I have devoted a great deal of my time to 
educating myself on matters of public policy, particularly 
the world events surrounding 9/11, Iraq, and "The War on 
Terror."  Given the fact that this government led by a 
corrupt George W. Bush administration has lied consistently 
since the beginning.  The war on Iraq is a racket for the 
international banks, Wall Street, oil companies, and the 
military-industrial complex.  It's very important for people 
in college with the future of the country and maybe the peace 
of the world in doubt in this crucial time to be informed as 
to how the government works and what a racket the "War on 
Terror" is for those bankers and oilmen at the top.  In the 
past year, I have found an alternative to the mainstream 
corporate-run media who protect the bankers and oilmen who 
control the government for their own interests at the expense 
of ordinary people.
    That alternative news source is Micheal Ruppert and his 
excellent publication From the Wilderness which exposes much 
of the government corruption behind the war on drugs, Wall 
Street, insider trading, 9/11, Iraq, and the mother of all 
issues facing the future of our society: Peak Oil and the 
future of industrial society.  This guy is right on target 
about many issues, and he reports the news without the 
propaganda of the mainstream corporate-controlled media.  He 
is an excellent speaker.  His video from a speech given in 
Nov 2001 at Portland State University is advertised on his 
website www.copvcia.com.  I am trying to get as many people 
concerned about this War on Terror on this campus and in the 
community interested in potentially helping me get him to 
visit campus before the 2004 elections where many of our 
freedoms will likely be at stake.  I will be at the next 
AWARE meeting at 5PM at the IMC to bring more information 
about Ruppert and some of my ideas for getting the people of 
this campus informed about the reality of the way this 
corrupt government works and why we need to organize for our 
rights and our democracy.  Please feel free to contact me at 
this listserve or e-mail me backt at ndahlhei at uiuc.edu or 
give me a call at my home at (217) 255-6415 or my cell # 
which is (630) 476-0803.  Take care and look forward to 
hearing thoughts and discussions about my idea.
                           Sincerely,
                           Nick Dahlheim
