  6 August 2005

  By George Nishiyama
  HIROSHIMA, Japan - Tens of thousands of people from around the world gathered in Hiroshima on Saturday to mark the 60th anniversary of the atomic bombing of the city and to renew calls for the abolition of nuclear arms.
  The anniversary of the world’s first atomic bombing comes as regional powers continue talks in Beijing to urge North Korea to give up its nuclear programme, seen by Tokyo as a threat and one of the reasons behind rising calls in Japan to strengthen its (...)

  10 October 2006

  Ernesto Guevara de la Serna (June 14, 1928 - October 9, 1967), commonly known as Che Guevara or el Che, was an Argentine-born medical doctor best known as a Marxist, politician, and leader of Cuban and internationalist guerrillas. As a young man studying medicine, Guevara traveled rough throughout Latin America, bringing him into direct contact with the impoverished conditions in which many people lived. Through these experiences he became convinced that only revolution could remedy the (...)

• Civilian Killings Went Unpunished. Declassified papers show U.S. atrocities went far beyond My Lai
  9 August 2006

  By Nick Turse and Deborah Nelson, Special to The Times
  The men of B Company were in a dangerous state of mind. They had lost five men in a firefight the day before. The morning of Feb. 8, 1968, brought unwelcome orders to resume their sweep of the countryside, a green patchwork of rice paddies along Vietnam’s central coast.
  They met no resistance as they entered a nondescript settlement in Quang Nam province. So Jamie Henry, a 20-year-old medic, set his rifle down in a hut, unfastened his (...)

• Bush is asserting the powers that accrued to Hitler
  25 May 2006

  In effect, Bush is asserting the powers that accrued to Hitler in 1933. His Federalist Society apologists and Department of Justice appointees claim that President Bush has the same power to interpret the Constitution as the Supreme Court. An Alito Court is likely to agree with this false claim.
  Dictatorships seldom appear full-fledged but emerge piecemeal. When Julius Caesar crossed the Rubicon with one Roman legion he broke the tradition that protected the civilian government from (...)

• How the American Right became an enemy of peace and freedom (1964)
  30 July 2005

  The Transformation of the American Right by Murray N. Rothbard
  First published in Continuum, Summer 1964, pp. 220-231.
  In the spate of recent books and articles on the burgeoning conservative movement, little has been said of its governing ideas and its intellectual leadership. Instead, attention has been centered on the mass phenomena of the Right-wing: The Billy James Hargises, the Birchers, the various crusaders for God and country. And yet, the neglect of the ruling ideas of the (...)

• MEDIAS : THE QUOTES

  “There is not one of you who would dare write his honest opinion. The business of Journalism is now to destroy the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, fall at the feet of Mammon and sell himself for his daily bread. We are tools, vessels of rich men behind the scenes, we are jumping jacks. They pull the strings; we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are the properties of these men. We are intellectual prostitutes.” John (...)

• Were Abbey Hoffman Jerry Rubin and the Chicago 7 really Police Agents?
  24 January 2006

  Do you think Abbie Hoffman and the Chicago 7 (exception Bobby Seale) were civilian assets for the police from the very begining as has been documented by Skolnick?
  Short preface 3/17/2004.
  After this preface there is re-typed, VERBATIM, my original investigation report of 1972. Since there is currently supposed Anti-Iraq War Movements, it is instructive to study prior such movements. Why? To determine, by example, if the leadership and direction they are taking secretly serves the (...)

• Flashback: July 5, 1987 - REAGAN AIDES AND THE SECRET GOVERNMENT
  13 January 2006

  by ALFONSO CHARDY, HERALD WASHINGTON BUREAU
  WASHINGTON — Some of President Reagan’s top advisers have operated a virtual parallel government outside the traditional Cabinet departments and agencies almost from the day Reagan took office, congressional investigators and administration officials have concluded.
  Investigators believe that the advisers’ activities extended well beyond the secret arms sales to Iran and aid to the contras now under investigation.
  Lt. Col. Oliver North, for (...)
