The Federal Reserve and the Pathology of Power posted by charles hugh smith via stan, 2010-11-20 17:35:26
The Federal Reserve is an example not just of run-of-the-mill hubris but of the far more profound Pathology of Power. The rule of law has been supplanted in the U.S. by self-serving propaganda campaigns serving State and financial Elites: this is the Pathology of Power. The Federal Reserve is an instructive example because it is so blatant. (full story)

 A Measure of American Subservience and Slavery posted by stele, 2010-11-19 22:21:45
Perhaps in its blind desire for ever more profits and less resistance, Corporate ruled America has crossed the line of tolerance – but we think not, as it is plain for the world to see that there is no limit to American servility and no slave like an American slave -- pathetic! (full story)

Derivations of Rumi posted by wisp, 2010-11-15 20:22:21
Few in the world today are aware that the world's most sublime, mystic love poet fared from Afghanistan. Yes, Jalaludin Rumi was born in Baktria. I am wondering what claim murdering Americans can make, aside from the most heinous and barbaric criminal acts known to civilised society. (full story and 1 comments)

The Stench of American Hypocrisy posted by Paul Craig Roberts via reed, 2010-11-15 17:44:47
"The list of criminal actions by presidents Bush and Obama, Vice President Cheney, the CIA, the NSA, the US military, and other branches of the government is long and growing. For example, both president Bush and vice president Cheney violated US and international laws against torture. Amnesty International and the American Civil Liberties Union responded to Bush’s recent admission that he authorized torture with calls for a criminal investigation of Bush’s crime."

WikiLeaks is Not about One Person posted by stylus, 2010-11-12 18:23:57
And the first person to agree would be Julian Assange -- who, incidentally, has made the short list for TIME magazine's most influential person of 2010.
Truth and full disclosure are about making it very difficulty for criminals in high places to function and deceive the population -- in other words WikiLeaks servers the interests of a healthy, DEMOCRATIC society. Those that oppose WikiLeaks should be watched very carefully indeed, as they are clearly CORRUPT and/or involved in CRIMINAL activity -- it really is that simple, Jethro! (full story)

Oz High Court rules in favour of Bikers (and our) right to Free Association posted by cubic, 2010-11-11 05:31:34
Following the AMERICAN trend of Government influencing/interfering with the independence of the Courts, South Australia, the first State that attempted to implement American police state tactics in Oz, failed in its corrupt bid. The AUSTRALIAN High Court bench (6 from 7 Judges) ruled in favour of the Bikers to freely associate! The judges also expressed their contempt for the South Australian Government for attempting to institute such an oppressive policy. (full story)

 Obama: A servant of big business posted by Patrick Martin via gan, 2010-11-10 18:29:20
"To describe Obama as chastened by defeat would be an exaggeration, since it might suggest that before the election he had been engaged in an aggressive campaign against his opponents. He was low-key, conciliatory and, above all, prostrate before corporate America, whose servant he is." (full story and 1 comments)
