    UN General Assembly meets under shadow of US threats against Iran
    By Peter Symonds
    Global Research, September 30, 2007 WSWS - 2007-09-24
    The UN General Assembly meets this week under the shadow of menacing demands by the US and its allies for tough new UN sanctions against Iran over its alleged nuclear weapons programs. The Bush administration’s “diplomacy”, in which the French government has been playing a very visible role, is aimed in the first instance at bullying Russia and China (…)

    By Seymour M. Hersh
    In a series of public statements in recent months, President Bush and members of his Administration have redefined the war in Iraq, to an increasing degree, as a strategic battle between the United States and Iran. “Shia extremists, backed by Iran, are training Iraqis to carry out attacks on our forces and the Iraqi people,” Bush told the national convention of the American Legion in August.
    “The attacks on our bases and our troops by Iranian-supplied munitions have (…)

    Look what I found posted to my door this morning! It was a multi-page document printed on bright red paper. I took a look out my window, and sure enough, there’s an army humvee parked down the streets with a couple of soldiers milling about. What the fuck is going on? !!! ATTENTION !!!
    This is an official communication from the United States Government. Read and understand these instructions! Failure to comply with these instructions may result in arrest.

    It was recently reported by Mainstream media that George Bush had rejected a pre-Iraq War offer by Saddam Hussein to leave with a mere $1 billion (see: (see the circa 27-28 September 2007 UK Daily Mail: , UK Telegraph: ), and the Washington Post: ).
    Decent folk are OBLIGED to examine the human and financial cost of the Iraq War in comparison with this $1 billion offer that could have prevented it if Bush were not INTENT on invading and occupying Iraq for OIL and HEGEMONIC CONTROL. (…)

    Yesterday, by a vote of 76-22, the Senate passed the Kyl-Lieberman amendment in support of military actions against Iran. This is the second such endorsement of the president by a senate majority in just three months. In July, the Lieberman amendment to “confront Iran” passed with the far stronger majority of 97-0.
    The original draft of Kyl-Lieberman had asked U.S. forces to “combat, contain, and roll back” the Iranian menace within Iraq. But the words “roll back” were (…)

    Making a Killing
    by Jeremy Scahill
    It’s being described as “Baghdad’s bloody Sunday.” On September 16 a heavily armed State Department convoy guarded by Blackwater USA was whizzing down the wrong side of the road near Nisour Square in the congested Mansour neighborhood in the Iraqi capital. Iraqi police scrambled to block off traffic to allow the convoy to pass. In the chaos, an Iraqi vehicle entered the square, reportedly failing (…)

  • THE INTERNET : Our Last Hope for a Free Press by Mark Klempner

    by Mark Klempner
    I consider the Internet to be one of the world’s great wonders. And also America’s last hope for a free press.
    When I was growing up in the 1970s, there were many people with a lot of things to say, but they generally had no platform. That’s why we needed figures like Bob Dylan to be “the voice of a generation.”
    The present generation has YouTube, whose motto-irresistible to young people-is “Broadcast Yourself.” So now, for example, a pert 18-year-old known as (…)

    "Methinks, sire, your vision lacketh clarity, ’tho what elan it doth proclaim!" ........ Shakespeare.
    It’s paradigm shifting time in the homeland. This is the profound and succinct message thrown out to the public at large by the Republican Guard and it’s phalanx of jovial pundits. When the Encyclopaedia Britanica is scripted ’er long, Mr. Bush will fare better than most of us could imagine. Those who control the pen control history. If you don’t believe it just check out the majority (…)

    The War on Terror: A Masterpiece of Propaganda September 28th, 2007 ·
    By Richard W. Behan
    Who will tell the people?
    –William Greider
    From its first days in office in January of 2001 the Administration of George W. Bush meant to launch military attacks against both Afghanistan and Iraq. The reasons had nothing to do with terrorism.
    This is beyond dispute. The mainstream press has either ignored the story or missed it completely, but the Administration’s congenital belligerence is (…)
