The Cast And Crew:
in no particular order
PoliticalTheatrics Administrator:
Self proclaimed radical journalist,activist,& Liberal Constitutionalist. I do not side with any particular political paradigm, be it with Democrats or Republicans: my municipal taste does not adhere to any of the said prototypes due to the fact that my appetence is much more unconventional and radical.
I am vehemently against all imperialist wars funded by Western tax-payers (i.e. Iraq,Afghanistan,Pakistan,Somalia,Yemen,Palestine et al) and contend that the masses who blindly fund these colonialist massacres should be questioned over their allegiance and premises for supporting these wars via their wallets.
The articles posted on my website reflect my unwavering support for resistance; the very enteté which permits society to grow and expand – not just as nations but as human beings.
Leila Saleh:
My name is Leila and I am a Lebanese American currently living in Lebanon. I am not the best writer in the world. I don’t use big journalistic words and may get my facts and numbers wrong at times. I may offend people and I may be a tad cruel. The only thing that is for sure is that I write for the unheard. I write about the deceitful governments and the innocent people that pay the price. I write for the people who’s voices are smothered by the higher powers and the lying media. I write from a civilian’s point of view and this is how I see the world through my own eyes.
Moonstar Silverwolf:
My name is Moonstar Silverwolf. I was born & raised in the United States currently living in the heart of Dixieland. I am a blogger who will blog about social, political & cultural items that I feel affect my life. I am a nerd, a theatre professor and an artist who is going back to school in International Relations. I am pro-freedom & a human rights activist serving as a member of the ACLU & Amnesty International.
I work with others online to bring attention to human rights abuses, internet censorship as well as political & social events related to civil rights, racism, religious or governmental oppression & war crimes. As an activist, I seek the truth. It is our duty as citizens of this world to bring the truth to the service so that our leaders are held accountable for their decisions. As a blogger, I will sometimes be blunt because the truth will sting if you are not aware. Dissent is the bedrock of democracy, freedom demands that we say something. A silent voice is an oppressed one.

Interjectionist:
Austro-African-Arabian-Brit member of Generation Y; obsessed with books, internets, piracy/copyright, caffeine, perception, academia and intellectual revolution.
More of the ‘Interjectionists‘ musings can be found here, on his Twitter account.
Ali Jawad:
The crucible of history is witness to the everlasting standoff between power and truth. In the annals of time, we learn of individuals who sincerely rose bearing the banner of truth and tore down the pillars of oppression and injustice. In our times likewise, this battle remains; the voices of millions subjected to the designs of the power-hungry are quashed, and their futures turn darker with the passing day. I make a stand – with all my limitations – for the dignity, freedom and right of these persons; the Oppressed. My name is Ali Jawad and I’m a member of the AhlulBayt Islamic Mission (AIM).

Shahrzad
I’ve been a journalist for 5 yrs in Persian journals,then I decided to work as a freelance journalist – not connected to organizations- so i can write what’s on my mind, not what they want me to write!
I’ve started writing in English since I founded my blog on 2007 and since then it’s been one of the most followed Iranian blogs in the blogosphere. I discuss everything there including politics; mostly Iran, Palestine, Muslim world Culture, Religion, Women related topics etc.
