Tom Parfitt in Moscow guardian.co.uk, Friday 21 August 2009 20.05
Russia has declassified top-secret surveillance documents in an attempt to justify its occupation of Eastern Europe under the Nazi-Soviet pact, signed 70 years ago on Sunday.
The hidden protocols of the pact, in which Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler agreed to carve up Poland and other sovereign states, were denounced by the Soviet parliament in 1989, shortly after they were revealed for the first… Continue

Time to boycott Israel For the sake of our children, I am convinced that an international boycott is the only way to save Israel from itself
Neve Gordon
Israeli newspapers this summer are filled with angry articles about the push for an international boycott of Israel. Films have been withdrawn from Israeli film festivals, Leonard Cohen is under fire around the world for his decision to perform in Tel Aviv and Oxfam has severed ties with a celebrity spokeswoman, an actress who also endorses cosmetics produced in the occupied territories. Clearly, the campaign to use the kind of tactics that helped put an end to the… Continue

NATO and World Security By ZBIGNIEW BRZEZINSKI
Published: August 19, 2009
In the course of its 60 years, NATO has institutionalized three monumental transformations in world affairs: first, the end of the centuries-long “civil war” within the West for trans-oceanic and European supremacy; second, the United States’s post–World War II commitment to the defense of Europe against Soviet domination; and third, the peaceful termination of the Cold War, which created the preconditions for a larger democratic European… Continue

With elections in Afghanistan, it might be timely to reflect on the US engagement with that stricken nation and consider just how much foreign intervention has contributed to the prospect and possibility of free and democratic elections.
More, it is fitting to consider what kind of example the US and its allies have given to the people of Afghanistan, if they have bestowed any wisdom and guidance for a nation facing a turbulent and… Continue

It's Time to Legalize Drugs
By Peter Moskos and Stanford "Neill" Franklin
Undercover Baltimore police officer Dante Arthur was doing what he does well, arresting drug dealers, when he approached a group in January. What he didn't know was that one of suspects knew from a previous arrest that Arthur was police. Arthur was shot twice in the face. In the gunfight that ensued, Arthur's partner returned fire and shot one of the suspects, three of whom were later arrested.

Who Owns The News? And Where's Your Outrage, Man?
By Anthony Falzone
There is a fascinating debate raging about who owns the news -- or more precisely, who owns which parts of a news story. The AP kicked it off in earnest last April when Chairman Dean Singleton channeled his inner Howard Beale and announced the AP would no longer "stand by and watch others walk off with our work . . . . We are mad as hell, and we are not going to take it any more." Just a few days ago, the Nieman Journalism Lab at Harvard posted a confidential AP… Continue

Afghanistan war polls-"Do you favor or oppose the U.S. war in Afghanistan?"
This is somewhat good news mixed in with all the bad news lately. A majority of Americans are now opposed to the war in Afghanistan and I think we'll see the opposition numbers grow in the up and coming months! We've got to take any good news we can get right now and capitalize on it!!!!

Ezekiel Emanuel, Obama's 'Deadly Doctor,' Strikes Back
By Michael Scherer / Washington
Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel, the medical ethicist and oncologist who advises President Obama, does not own a television, and if you catch him in a typically energized moment, when his mind speeds even faster than his mouth, he is likely to blurt out something like, "I hate the Internet." So it took him several days in late July to discover he had been singled out by opponents of health-care reform as a "deadly doctor," who, according to an opinion column in… Continue

US new drug policy in Afghanistan ignores roots
In its war in Afghanistan, the US seeks to target 50 Afghan drug traffickers who help finance the Taliban instead of halting the country's increasing drug production.
The Pentagon says it has planned to 'kill or capture' Afghan drug traffickers to disrupt the flow of drug money to the Taliban, the New York Times reported Sunday.
According to a Congressional study to be released this week, US military commanders announced that the policy is legal under the military's rules… Continue
