Our Six Month Report

By Maurice Ali, Journalist


This is our first sixth month report. Below you will find all salient events that transpired during the first six months of our organization's existence.

This organization began on October 4, 2003.

Fortressoffreedom.com began life on the same date. Iaij.com began it's existence on December 10, 2003. There are three other domains owned by our organization: fortressoffreedom.org, iaij.org, fortressfreedom.com.

In January of 2004; Fortress Of Freedom Inc. and International Archiving Of Independent Journalists Inc. became nationally registered corporations operating in Canada. Fortressoffreedom.com and IAIJ became registered sole-proprietorships registered and operating in the province of Ontario, Canada.

Our phpbb2 forums became a reality on October 21 at 12:01am.

Our press Card became a reality on December 24, 2003.

The Fortress Newspaper became a reality on April 2, 2004.


Search Engines: Google is still our enemy but others like Yahoo are our friends. Interestingly.....most of our hits come from the original "Uncensored Photos from Iraq" and the rest mostly from that archive of "Freedom Of Thought And Speech In Action". These queries number in the hundreds per month.

We have had one small donation during this time period (and we did not even solicit for one.....). Expenses were not unsubstantial, but given what we accomplished.....this cost is a remarkable achievement! We have managed to set up the building blocks for our organization with personal funds and have avoided the corrupting influences of others as they would have imposed their will upon the organization along with any cash infusion. Fortress Of Freedom Inc. and International Archiving OF Independent Journalists Inc. are for-profit corporations that operated as not-for-profit. It is my intention to keep this organization under our control by keeping it in the black and not "selling out" to bigger business.

The next six months should see our radio commercials being aired, another newspaper coming of the press and our first infomercial becoming a reality at the end of our first year.

The best part of this organization is the people. Regular people making themselves heard in an increasingly isolated world where a few control the mass media. Look at what we have accomplished in this short time. The future awaits!
