    Palestine: The 40th Anniversary of Occupation
    By Prof. Francis Boyle
    Global Research, June 7, 2007 PalestineChronicle.com
    Israel and the United States are still doing everything humanly possible to promote a Palestinian civil war by means of arming, financing and encouraging comprador Palestinian surrogates toward that diabolical end.
    On the 40th Anniversary of the so-called Six Day War, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas stated that the Palestinians were on the verge of a civil (…)

    William M. Arkin on National and Homeland Security Nuking Iran: The Republican Agenda?
    At the Republican debate last night, almost all the candidates said that they would not rule out a nuclear attack on Iran as a means to prevent it from getting its own nuclear weapons. Only one of these knuckleheads would say that attacking Iran — indeed even threatening to nuke Iran — is not the right strategy.
    "We have to come to our senses about this issue of war and preemption," he said. The (…)

    by Jason Miller
    Jonah Goldberg is the living, breathing embodiment of virtually all that is pernicious in the malignant socioeconomic and political structures collectively known as the American Empire. Yet tragically, this scheming sycophant to the cynical, privileged criminals of the US plutocracy reaches countless millions through myriad corporate media conduits as he weaves his sophistic arguments supporting nearly every morally repulsive aspect of United States foreign policy.

    War criminal Rumsfeld’s China policy
    BY Scott Horton June 2, 2007
    Did Donald Rumsfeld and his Neocon all-star team of Wolfowitz, Feith, Cambone and DiRita – with backing from John Bolton at State - actually attempt to provoke a war with China? Did they do their best to stir up President Chen Shui-bian and his Taiwanese independence movement to derail U.S.-Chinese relations? This is the charge that Colin Powell’s chief of staff, Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson, has leveled. And he’s being (…)

    In an inexorable build-up of propaganda and military encirclement prior to a first strike attack on Iran, the Bush junta, along with its London quislings, have switched their anti-Iranian propaganda from nuclear issues to accuse the Iranian government of "meddling" in Iraq and supplying Iraqi guerillas weapons with which to fight the US and British occupying troops.
    The evidence for such allegations was always sketchy and reminiscent of the concocted lies about Yellowcake Uranium and WMDs, (…)

  • WE DID IT ALL FOR YOU! Our Gifts To Iraq
    28 May 2007 par (Open-Publishing)

    Who among you doesn’t believe that the Neocons in Washington didn’t design the "liberation" of Iraq specifically to create a dynamic and noble democracy, evict a tyrant who threatened the entire planet and in particular the USA, and establish a decent country in the Mid East which honors the "rule of law"?
    Who?
    We’ve done a swell job! Shock and Awe cowed the populace exactly as predicted, Rumsfeld’s slim and trim Army marched in, established law and order, and controlled actions on the (…)
