  The Inner Workings of the International Gold Market posted by Bob Chapman via fleet, 2010-09-25 21:28:58
We recently saw gold at $1,300.00 an ounce. That is a long way from $35.00 an ounce on August 15, 1971, just a year shy of 40 years, from when President Nixon closed the gold window. Over the past ten years gold has been up about 20% a year. Shares and mint state graded numismatic coins have certainly outperformed gold bullion. We suppose we’ll know in the final analysis what government manipulation has done to prices and results. We believe that what they have done has been criminal for which they will never be prosecuted. On the other hand buyers have had an unprecedented opportunity to buy gold and silver, bullion, coins and shares at artificially suppressed prices. That condition still exists. Year-to-date in 2010 gold is up about 17%. (full story)

Transcript of Speech delivered to the UN General Assembly by the President of Iran posted by via fleet, 2010-09-23 21:46:30
Western Corporate media goes to great lengths to demonise this man and portray him as some kind of mass murdering maniac, when in fact all the mass murdering that has occurred over the past decade and continues to occur today, has been committed by US/NATO and other servile allies -- FACT!
Read the following speech and judge for yourself. Compare the violent, lying diatribes that issue from the mouths of Western leaders with this man's rational and balanced plea to the world for SANITY and FAIR PLAY!
My only criticism is the slavish homage and other references made to a man-made God (all Gods have been created by men!) However, that fault affects only deluded believers in fantasy and those slaves under the authority of (human) religious leaders, who CLEARLY have no higher interest than blood, guts and themselves; history bears irrefutable proof of that fact! But please, arrive at your OWN conclusions, thinking for yourself has not yet been deemed a crime: (full story and 1 comments)

America’s Permanent War Doctrine for the 21st Century posted by stan, 2010-09-22 19:03:51
We’ve heard it in many forms, the “long war” of Dick Cheney; the “crusade” of the moron president, Bush, and of late, “generational war,” from Pentagon military – it’s a hard sell launched from a multitude of lies, deceit and based on the highly questionable government report on the attacks of 9/11! But regardless of all America’s efforts, few are BUYING this ideological garbage except of course the local uneducated, uninformed, fear ridden, American population. The rest of the world views US actions accurately, as CRIMINAL; designed to ROB poor nations of their sovereign wealth. (full story and 1 comments)

 Israel and America -- Brazen Criminal States posted by Prof. Lawrence Davidson via reed, 2010-09-21 21:04:46
Neither American nor Israeli behavior is legal under international law. It is all a violation of Article 54 of Protocol I, Part IV, of the Geneva Conventions (1977). The law reads, “It is prohibited to attack, destroy, remove or render useless objects indispensable to the survival of the civilian population, such as …drinking water installations and supplies…whatever the motive whether in order to starve out the civilian population, to cause them to move away, or for any other motive.” (full story)

China The Superpower of the 21st Century posted by Michael T. Klare via quin, 2010-09-20 22:04:03
If you want to know which way the global wind is blowing (or the sun shining or the coal burning), watch China. That’s the news for our energy future and for the future of great-power politics on planet Earth. Washington is already watching -- with anxiety. (full story)

Social Contractionism posted by stan, 2010-09-18 21:46:01
Here we are again as unhappy as can be; global economic failure is now unavoidable (spring 2011), massive unemployment, rampant racism (Roma deportations in Western Europe) and social divisions/demonisation promoted by Western leaders – taken straight from Hitler’s political diary – but it’s only the beginning of the horrors that await the Western world.

 Bradley Manning -- Accused of Telling the Truth posted by Ann Wright via quill, 2010-09-17 20:50:23
Bradley Manning now faces decades in prison for informing Americans of the Truth about our wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. He stands accused of 'leaking' the video, “Collateral Murder” to WikiLeaks -- it clearly depicts two Reuters journalists being murdered by a U.S. helicopter strike! Manning is also under investigation for 'leaking' the “Afghan War Diary” documents that were also published by WikiLeaks, in co-operation with the New York Times, the UK Guardian and the German magazine Der Spiegel.
