There is a belief that times of great evil have the capacity to shatter one’s faith or to enhance it, and perhaps at no time in a person’s or a nation’s life does this quandary arise more notably than in times of war
Decades before Lord Acton wrote that "power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely," America’s founders recognized this tendency in human nature. To ensure (…)

A Republic or an Empire?
PAUL CRAIG ROBERTS | July 9 2006
Gentle reader, did you know that in April President Bush went to Stanford University to speak to the Hoover Institution fellows at the invitation of former Secretary of State George Shultz but was not allowed on campus? The Stanford students got wind of it and blocked Bush’s access to the campus. The Hoover fellows had to go to Shultz’s (…) -

This is the great tragedy.
Every child in Iraq who lost their parents or who is crippled, maimed or dead...

Every young woman who was insulted, beaten, raped or killed by US or foreign troops or by "insurgents".....

Imperial Racism
10 July 2006 par (Open-Publishing)
3 commentsRacism, the ideology that came into full flower as a justification for European conquest of most of the planet, is now headquartered in the United States - with an annex in Israel. Tel Aviv is a very active annex.
There could be no justification for George Bush’s aggressions, without the underlying assumptions of racial superiority. Bush has committed multiple crimes against peace - a capital Nuremburg offense for which a number of Nazis were hanged. He is a war criminal, many times over. (…) -
Republicans and the "Rule of Law"
9 July 2006 par (Open-Publishing)
Have you ever noticed the rank hypocrisy of the Republican Party when they drag out their old standard "We must have respect for the Rule of Law"?
What respect? What are they talking about?
To wit:
They love putting criminals to death (Bush did it 131 times) without seriously considering the possibility of innocence.
Many of their followers bomb or burn abortion clinics or murder doctors in the name of "life", despite the gross illegality of such actions. And the GOP says nothing! (…) -

2 commentsFormer Presidential Candidate George McGovern Criticizes US Role In Iraq By Greg Joyce July 8, 2006 CASTLEGAR, B.C. (CP) - The United States government is making the same mistake in Iraq as it did in Vietnam and is jeopardizing its international standing in the world, former senator George McGovern said Saturday.
The former presidential candidate told a crowd of about 300 people that the U.S. government’s decision to enter Iraq is "cut from same cloth" as the decision to enter Vietnam. (…) -
Editorial: Lives On Line
9 July 2006 par (Open-Publishing)
Editorial: Lives On Line 9 July 2006 Engineers at NASA are not expected to reveal their conclusions about possible lethal damage to the space shuttle Discovery’s heat shield until later today at the earliest. There is understandably considerable concern that protective foam, again seen breaking away at launch from the first stage rocket, may have damaged the shuttle’s heat shield. It was just such a mishap that led to the destruction of the Columbia upon re-entry in 2003.
That disaster (…) -
The New Light of the Balanced Man-Woman is Now being Born

4 commentsThrough out history one thing can be seen as a continuous evolving factor in the development of the social and mind structures of awareness of the human species and that is the integration of the feminine and the masculine is growing in balance with the cosmic evolution of the universe.
Over history which in its beginnings was male dominated due to a lack of intelligence and structural knowledge, wisdom, and genetic development we are seeing that the genetic structure is evolving and the (…) -

Dumb and Dumber Go To Medical School? Larry C. Johnson Saturday, 08 July 2006 at 19:12
I recall fondly the flick, Dumb and Dumber, which was set largely in the post card tableau of Aspen. Are we ready for the sequel? This AP photo is flipping hysterical. Maybe these guys are the final applicants to replace Igor. Two half-wits for the price of one?
Figure out your own caption. -
Bush Or Keller? Who Do You Trust?
9 July 2006 par (Open-Publishing)
1 commentBush Or Keller? Who Do You Trust? By Jack Shafer Posted Thursday, July 6, 2006, at 10:56 PM ET When governments acquire emergency powers during wartime, it’s with the understanding that the crisis is finite and that when the war ends the government will relinquish those powers. But what happens when a government defines its war as neverending, as the Bush administration has its so-called "war on terror"? As long as any jihadist anywhere threatens the West, the administration would have us (…)
