    “We have spent the better part of a year locked in a tedious and unenlightening debate over health care while the jobless rate has steadily surged. It’s now at 10.2 percent. Families struggling with job losses, home foreclosures and personal bankruptcies are falling out of the middle class like fruit through the bottom of a rotten basket.”

    On the same day a government report revealed that the official unemployment rate (…)

    If anyone had told me back in Reagan’s days that his Assistant Secretary of the Treasury and a Wall Street Journal editor, Paul Craig Roberts, would become one of my favorite columnists, I would have laughed. Now Roberts puts more truth into one essay (e.g., “The Evil Empire”) than you could glean rummaging through the entire WSJ archive. Likewise if anyone had told me I would agree with Maj. Gen. Albert Stubblebine, the commanding general of the United States Army Intelligence and Security (…)

    11 November 2009 par (Open-Publishing)

    The aim of France to keep the 3 other islands of the Comoros (Anjuan, Mayotte and Moheli), a chronic destabilization is to guide the political concerns of Comoros on issues related to their "survival" as the return of Mayotte in its natural environment. The draft of the Comoros in a humiliating poverty is a factor of satisfaction for France, because it stifles any hint of demands on the return of Mayotte in its natural fold. For many of the Comoros, Mayotte claim the project is absolutely (…)

    by D.B. Grady
    On Wednesday, The New York Times reported that Ahmed Wali Karzai, brother to Afghanistan president Hamid Karzai, is on the Central Intelligence Agency payroll. While the explanations are not expressly damning (C.I.A. and U.S. Special Operations forces rent a compound from him, and often use him as an intermediary to communicate with the Taliban), it’s clear how the news will be received in the region. Theories that Afghanistan is a puppet state of the West are confirmed. (…)
