Salaam nettimers. Below the story on The Coups spooky album cover as published by London based website AMMOCITY on Wednesday. The mainstream media in their role as moral watchdogs picked up on the story in an instance, and ammocity has been flooded with threats, abuse and and… ever since. What is most disturbing are reports from various people whose provider (AOL.. others?) refused connecting to ammocity. Hate to be a scaremonger but I have a gut feeling that blacklisting websites is something that is likely to happen. Did you receive any reports on strange, similar looking incidents? take care of each other, roya* ** Spooky sleeve precedes blasts by three months TWIN TOWERS ALBUM COVER The album cover for hip hop group The Coup manages to even out-weird the quotes from the Nostradamus hoax doing the email roundssince Tuesday. Designed more than three months ago, the original cover for ‘Party Music’ shows group member ?Boots? Riley holding a detonator while the World Trade Centre explodes behind them. If you examine the actual explosions you?ll notice that they are around the same relative height on each of the towers as the real explosions. There?s been no word from 75 Ark Records, The Coup?s label, on the subject, but on their website the artwork has already been changed. If you want to see the spookiness you can link to the address http://www.ammocity.com/twintowers – — (this is todays update on the story by ammocity..) Hip hop crew The Coup have responded to the extraordinary similarity between their planned cover art for their album ?Party Music? and the attack on the World Trade Centre. In a statement, frontman Boots Riley expressed regret for the ?uncanny similarity? between the cover, completed in June this year, and the events of September 11. He also stated that ?the original intent of the cover was to use the World Trade Centre to symbolise capitalism and was not supposed to be realistic in its depiction.? Talking of the attack he explained, “all life is precious and this tremendous tragedy is by no means taken lightly by The Coup. This is a very unfortunate coincidence and my condolences go out to the families and friends of the victims.” The album will be released on November 5 with completely new artwork. —————————— Date: Fri, 14 Sep 2001 16:36:07 -0400 From: “Ivo Skoric” <ivo@reporters.net> Subject: Re: [TW] FW: Another Gulf of Tonkin Resolution? This is true – we are in contants with several people from Bosnia and from Serbia – who worked in financial district area – they survived either the war in Bosnia or the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia – and they are all frightened that the war came after them. Some of them are actually in need of counseling, because they don’t believe this is over now. It is also interesting how primary instinct of somebody who was once a victim of war is not to wish for revenge and retribution, but for peace and reconciliation. Those who see this recent attack on the US as a quid-pro-quo for NATO’s bombing of Yugoslavia are usually not those who were running for shelters in Belgrade, but those who were then, as they are now, behind their computer terminals safely, somewhere in the non- descript parts of the U.S. ivo Date sent: Thu, 13 Sep 2001 15:11:56 EDT Send reply to: Tribunal Watch List <TWATCH-L@LISTSERV.ACSU.BUFFALO.EDU> From: “Nalini Lasiewicz (twatch-l)” <LasiewiczN@AOL.COM> Subject: Re: [TW] FW: Another Gulf of Tonkin Resolution?

NYC looked like Sarajevo for a while there. It still does downtown. The victims, traumatized and frightened, wouldn’t quibble with semantics. To them, war has come to America. Can you help me to understand why, in the legal sense, this is not considered an act of war? What are the characteristics missing? Hope you have time to answer.

In all fairness I must say that the production company decided not to remove the buildings. What they did instead was have me reposition the image so that the WTC buildings were not as readily recognizable on one of the sequences. On the other sequence they replaced the shot with another New York shot that did not have the WTC in it. Nonetheless it was not a fun session dealing with the clients and the situation at large. missing hallo psw : ov7o734o7o437 requires – msp. opengl. tzzt +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ nn: what is the dream the dream that feels that fleshes out emotion turns the transcendental into tangible and visceral vibrant even perhaps or soft soft too a means (though subtler) towards touch a dream of or to touch as if touching were the way the only way to maintain a space reality to capture particle of time or, more clearly, a moment +? +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Pirates attack US research ship off Somalia Pirates attack US research ship off Somalia Pirates attack US research ship off Somalia Pirates attack US research ship off Somalia Pirates attack US research ship off Somalia Pirates attack US research ship off Somalia Pirates attack US research ship off Somalia Pirates attack US research ship off Somalia Pirates attack US research ship off Somalia Pirates attack US research ship off Somalia Pirates attack US research ship off Somalia Pirates attack US research ship off Somalia Pirates attack US research ship off Somalia Pirates attack US research ship off Somalia Pirates attack US research ship off Somalia Pirates attack US research ship off Somalia Pirates attack US research ship off Somalia Regarding U.S.A. nationalistic tendencies….I myself have a very difficult time understanding the prevailing sentiment. The government had declared a national day of prayer and flag waving for today. I live in Los Angeles. Relative to the population at large I saw very very few flags being displayed…and based on what I was seeing on TV regarding flag waving elsewhere in this country I am confused ….in comparison I saw an enormous amount of Laker flags last month when the local basketball playoffs occurred.
