Today the war in Afghanistan begins to crumble under the weight of government lies at home and criminal behavior on the battlefield.
Since the beginning of the war in Afghanistan nine years ago, Veterans For Peace has been waiting for the day when internal documents would reveal what we have known all along -- this war is illegal, immoral and we must add, it is bankrupting our nation at a time when millions of Americans have been thrown out…

7 Secret Ways We Are Being Poisoned
Activist Post
The objectivism of the scientific method seems to have been hijacked by corporations who often pay for scientists to support their products, as well as politicians who move through the revolving door between the private and public sector. Even worse is that sometimes the consumer protection agencies themselves are complicit.
The trust placed by consumers in scientific studies and Federal oversight committees…

"This week the U.S. House of Representatives will vote on a supplemental funding bill that will allocate another $33 billion to continue the occupation of Afghanistan.
Unlike earlier funding bills that contained money for vital domestic programs, the vote this week will be a straight-up vote for continuing the war with no strings attached.
We need an exit strategy for Afghanistan and a timeline for withdrawal and yet the war funding bill contains neither. Under these…

I thought about the 30 year business I ran with 1800 employees, all without a Blackberry that played music, took videos, pictures and communicated with Facebook and Twitter.
I signed up under duress for Twitter and Facebook, so my seven kids, their spouses, 13 grandkids and 2 great grand kids could communicate with me in the modern way. I figured I could handle something as simple as Twitter with only 140 characters of space.
That was before one of my grandkids hooked me…

November 22, 2009 @ William L. Anderson
ater years of writing about how governments abuse, murder, and imprison innocent people and destroy life around the world, I find that I have been wrong, really wrong. All this time, I wrongfully tried to convince readers that terrible things are done in the name of “good government,” and now I have to apologize to them.
Why this turnaround? I have seen the light. Government is good, yes, very, very good. How do I know this? Why Douglas J.…

"The Canadian Engineer Regiment is often associated with the British SAS and their role in recent conflicts such as Bosnia and Afghanistan has seen them doing less reconstruction work and more urban pacification and counter insurgency operations."
One has to wonder, considering their background, why it is Canadian troops rather than the US National Guard, who have been deployed to the Gulf.
Precisely why is it this unit that the US government has requested this particular…

The Age of Toxicity
Heavy metals aren’t music to anyone’s ears. Frequent headaches, dizziness, brain fog, and nausea are just a few of the symptoms that tell us that mercury and other neurotoxic heavy metals are increasingly evident in our air, food, water, and even the medicines we take, causing many members of the medical community to call the 21st Century “The Age of Toxicity”.
These deadly substances kill…

Subject: Filling your home with mercury
We have a lot of people paying a lot of money to have those screwy little light bulbs in their homes. I am told that when you break one, you are to get out of the house, call a bio-hazard group to come in and clean your home thoroughly. You could be out of your home for a couple of weeks. But how many people do…

Looking back on a disordered life that I occasionally package as journalism, but that actually has more in common with the path of a large ball-bearing through a pinball machine, I don’t really think I will slit my wrists. Though it has its appeal. I mean, it’s unnerving to sail through the vastness of an unasked-for universe, round and round a minor sun, on a ball of rock with billions of…

Bombs away! Remember Cambodia
By Ben Kiernan and Taylor Owen
The United States war in Afghanistan is "going badly", according to the New York Times. Nine years after American forces invaded to oust the repressive Taliban regime and its al-Qaeda ally, "the deteriorating situation demands a serious assessment now of the military and civilian strategies".
Aerial bombardment, a centerpiece of the US military effort in Afghanistan, has had a devastating impact on…
