POLITICAL ACTIVIST CRAIG ROSEBRAUGH RELEASES CONTROVERSIAL BOOK PROMOTING REVOLUTION AND POLITICAL VIOLENCE

PORTLAND, OR – “The Logic of Political Violence: Lessons in Reform and Revolution,” was released today by Arissa Media Group in Portland. This 288-page book, with a cover image of the burning twin towers, discusses why political violence is necessary in a successful revolutionary struggle. Rosebraugh’s profound and well-researched conclusions advocate the necessity of a political and social revolution in the United States, using any means necessary.

From the introduction.

“A political and social revolution is needed in the United States to destroy a system of governing that has proven itself unable to provide for the needs of its people. Furthermore, it is beyond necessary to rid the world of a political system that has demonstrated itself to be one of the greatest – if not the greatest – terrorist organizations in planetary history.”

A political activist since 1990 when he opposed the Gulf War, Rosebraugh is best known for his role as a spokesperson for the underground Earth Liberation Front (ELF). From 1997-2001, Rosebraugh received anonymous communiqués from the ELF, a militant environmental group that has caused over 0 million in damages to entities profiting off the destruction of the natural environment. In 2003 Rosebraugh co-formed Arissa, an effort to build a revolutionary movement in the United States of America.

Rosebraugh will be promoting his book in Portland, OR on Friday, December 12 at Laughing Horse Books (3652 S.E. Division Street) beginning at 7:00pm.

“The Logic of Political Violence: Lessons in Reform and Revolution” by Craig Rosebraugh is available for .95 (+.00 shipping) from Arissa Media Group, P.O. Box 6058, Portland, OR 97228.

The Constitution and supporting foundational documents are designed and written to maintain order and discipline involving the reservation and limited distribution of power defining the relationship between the People and the government servants.

Within the Bill of Rights is the recipe for waging civilized combat against government servants that act above the law.

What is desparately needed in this country, are more individuals with the intestinal fortitude to exercise their power to investigate and have prosecuted government servants that act above the law, NOT violence.

Its called a "presentment" as provided for by the fifth article to the Constitution otherwise and inappropriately known as the Fifth Amendment. Inappropriately meaning that a so called amendment can only clarify or add to an existing provision of the Constitution since the Constitution can not be changed because it is the "source" of all other law.

Hear, hear! Well put.

Ah yes, the 5th Ammendment. Alternate means for the struggle...

"No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury"

So you mean these indymedia revolutionaries could indite President Bush for warcrimes, and convene a grand jury to inquire about and investigate their allegations?

They could overthrow our elected leaders, legally? And within the confines of written American law?

Oh, they must think that to be patently absurd!

But I certainly how they try it *chuckles*! Let me know when the grand jury convenes....I just love to be entertained!
