America’s Permanent War Doctrine for the 21st Century
stan, Wednesday, Sep 22 2010, 7:03pm
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. (story and 1 comment)

Lassitude, Fear and Suffering
quill, Wednesday, Sep 22 2010, 10:04am
‘At the root of all sorrow is DESIRE’ – no doubt! An ancient Hindu axiom re-iterated by Gautama Buddha. It is an inviolable TRUTH, too often forgotten at great expense!

 Israel and America -- Brazen Criminal States
Prof. Lawrence Davidson via reed, Tuesday, Sep 21 2010, 9:04pm
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.” (story and 1 image)

China The Superpower of the 21st Century
Michael T. Klare via quin, Monday, Sep 20 2010, 10:04pm
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.

Social Contractionism
stan, Saturday, Sep 18 2010, 9:46pm
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
Ann Wright via quill, Friday, Sep 17 2010, 8:50pm
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.

Lies, subterfuge and mass murder most foul
Ali, Wednesday, Sep 15 2010, 8:35pm
The entire world -- with the exception of uneducated and uninformed Americans (naturally) -- is aware that 9/11 and the anthrax letters were an inside job designed to create hostile social divisions, extend executive powers, in order to facilitate WAR and ROB resource rich poorer nations of their sovereign wealth. In whose interests are these unspeakable atrocities committed? For the many CORPORATE interests that control America today -- as if YOU didn’t know! (story and 1 comment)

How Corporations Own the US Congress
Shamus Cooke via reed, Wednesday, Sep 15 2010, 7:02am
With the November elections quickly approaching, the majority of Americans will be thinking one thing: "Who cares?” This apathy isn't due to ignorance, as some accuse. Rather, working people's disinterest in the two party system implies intelligence: millions of people understand that both the Democrats and Republicans will not represent their interests in Congress.

Tony Blair and the Red Queen
reed, Monday, Sep 13 2010, 8:53pm
Brazen war criminal and member of the coalition of willing criminals, Tony Blair, is forever attempting to salvage his trashed name and save himself from the gallows. The extremes corporate elites go to these days in their vain attempts to avoid legal accountability is indicative of their desperation! (story and 1 image)
