STRIKE IN SOLIDARITY WITH END THE FED

 

"WE the PEOPLE" do not have to travel great distances in order to face down tyranny, it is right in our own neighborhoods. The tentacles of global banking and governments have infiltrated us right down to the very heart of our being, and are instilled locally in politics, religions, and military madness.

 

 Although we don’t support  foundation funded movements,  we do support people getting involved and being active in the restoration of freedom in the…

How Israel and the Americans foster Islamic fundamentalism to stall peace with the Palestinians and other imperialistic objectives

There's No Quick Fix for Veterans~ Maggie Martin..... A True Hero

It has been nearly five years since I left the Army and still my time in the service is fresh in my mind. I think about my deployments every single day without fail. I have friends and family, responsibilities and passions that keep me moving, but the time I spent in the Army and in Iraq are what…

Ending Violent Resistance - Target the Oppressor, Not the Resistance

Dissident Voice

by Kim Petersen / October 23rd, 2010





First a given: there can be no resistance unless there is something to resist against. There can be no anti-occupation resistance if there is no occupation, and there can be no resistance against oppression if there is no oppression. It is a simple logic that eludes many people. That it… Continue

Putting a price on Afghan life



What is the price of a human life?



In Afghanistan, if foreign troops kill an innocent civilian by accident, families may receive compensations of around $2,500.



But there is no fixed system for compensation - something that Stanley McChrystal, the top US commander in Afghanistan, is now calling for.



However, many bereaved families aren't convinced that money will heal deep wounds.

Haiti: An Unwelcome Katrina Redux

by Cynthia McKinney



President Obama's response to the tragedy in Haiti has been robust in military deployment and puny in what the Haitians need most: food; first responders and their specialized equipment; doctors and medical facilities and equipment; and engineers, heavy equipment, and heavy movers. Sadly, President Obama is dispatching Presidents Bush and Clinton, and thousands of Marines and U.S. soldiers. By contrast, Cuba has over 400 doctors on the ground and is sending in… Continue

Afghanistan: the Roach Motel of Empires

By ZOLTAN GROSSMAN



In just a few months, Afghanistan will surpass Vietnam as the longest single war fought by the United States in its history. In his West Point speech on December 1, President Obama denied that “Afghanistan is another Vietnam”--and in some senses he is correct. Vietnam in 1975 was a far more unified state--ethnically and politically--than Afghanistan ever has been. Afghanistan is far more mountainous and difficult to occupy, and is bounded by more artificially… Continue

Opium, Rape and the American Way

By Chris Hedges



The warlords we champion in Afghanistan are as venal, as opposed to the rights of women and basic democratic freedoms, and as heavily involved in opium trafficking as the Taliban. The moral lines we draw between us and our adversaries are fictional. The uplifting narratives used to justify the war in Afghanistan are pathetic attempts to redeem acts of senseless brutality. War cannot be waged to instill any virtue, including democracy or the liberation of women. War… Continue

No settlement can follow from Israel's imposing its narrative

By Mustafa Abu Sway

Commentary by

Monday, August 31, 2009



The Palestinian-Israeli “road map” was supposed to be a performance-based plan leading to a two-state solution by 2005. Israel “accepted” the road map, yet it presented 14 reservations, a classic move aimed at placating the international community while, at the same time, presenting its own understanding of what peace or a peace process should look like. This imposition of a Zionist narrative onto attempts at… Continue

Palestinians: No homeland in Jordan



Barack Obama, the US president, is attempting to seal an Arab-Israeli peace deal that has eluded the region for more than six decades.



Ahead of an initiative expected to be announced in September, Al Jazeera is examining the prospects for peace in a week-long series from Israel, the West Bank, Gaza and Jordan.



In the first of the series, Al Jazeera's Nisreen El-Shamayleh speaks to Palestinian refugees about an Israeli plan that Jordan become their… Continue

Israel troops 'shot Gaza civilians'

Israeli soldiers unlawfully shot and killed 11 Palestinian civilians, including four children, who were in groups waving white flags during the Gaza war, a report prepared by the US-based Human Rights Watch says.



Civilians Killed Holding White Flags in Gaza, published on Thursday, is HRW's third publication in five months condemning Israel's actions during the Gaza conflict, following allegations over white phosphorous and drones.



For its part, the Israeli government… Continue

Tomgram: Chalmers Johnson, Dismantling the Empire

The Obama administration's plan to end production of the F-22 Raptor has received plenty of press coverage, but the Pentagon budget itself, even though it's again on the rise, hardly rates a bit of notice. In fact, amid the plethora of issues large and small -- from health care reform to Gates-gate, from energy policy to the culpability of Michael Jackson's doctor -- that make up the American debate in the media, in Washington, and possibly even in the country, what Chalmers Johnson has called… Continue

US stay in Iraq stinks 'like fish', says memo

Fri, 31 Jul 2009 16:51:46 GMT



A top US military adviser says Iraqi forces are now able to protect the government, admitting that US troops are no longer welcome in Iraq.



In an unusually blunt memo, Col. Timothy R. Reese details the deficiency roots of the Iraqi army, but admits that any the US military presence beyond August 2010 will do little to improve their performance while deepening resentment of Americans.



"As the old saying goes, 'Guests, like fish,… Continue

Israeli leader calls Obama 'slave'

Tue, 28 Jul 2009 17:28:53 GMT



Rabbi Ovadia Yosef, spiritual leader of Israel's Shas Party, has called US President Barack Obama "a slave" who seeks to rule the world and control Tel Aviv's affairs.



"American insidiousness tells us to build here and not to build there as though we were slaves working for them," he said. "We live in a time when slaves are governing us and are trying to control us."



The racist remarks were made during Yosef's weekly sermon on… Continue

Israeli settlers burn more Palestinian farms

Israel's illegal settlers in the West Bank have set fire to more than 120 hectares of Palestinian land, the Ministry of Agriculture says.



In a series of attacks since the spring, settlers have gone on the offensive, attacking Palestinian farmers particularly in villages surrounding the cities of Nablus and al-Khalil (Hebron), the Palestinian Ministry of Agriculture said on Sunday.



The ministry issued a statement after settlers in the West Bank town of Beit Ummar set fire… Continue
