    The military alliance said the joint patrol with Afghan forces in Khost province killed six fighters from a militant group allied with the Taliban (…)

  • Obama October Surprise: Blaming al Qaeda

    To keep the "war on terror" alive and continue to instill fear, the Obama administration needs a false flag scenario, like the 9/11 attacks, to justify to the American public for sending thousands of ground troops to invade Africa, starting with Libya.
    Just 2 weeks ago, the White House comes out with the latest counterterrorism strategy to turn inward to monitor the HOMELAND.
    Without giving any credible explanation, John Brennan, White House counterterrorism adviser, stated: "Indeed, (…)

    By Husayn Al-Kurdi
    What are the reasons why the US government and its current President Barack Obama and his cabinet, are so vehement in their insistence that Libyan leader Mu’ammar el-Qaddafi "must go"? Why does the American regime insist on Qaddafi’s removal, to the extent of overseeing repeated bombings of his residences and other places where he may be staying or visiting, following a long series of assassination and coup attempts? Why do they continually reject overtures at mediation, (…)

  • Ethnic Cleansing of Black Libyans
    11 July 2011 par (Open-Publishing)

    The "rebels" in Misrata in Libya have driven out the entire Black population of the city, according to a chilling story in The Wall Street Journal today under the headline "Libya City Torn by Tribal Feud."
    The "rebels" now eye the city of Tawergha, 25 miles away, and vow to cleanse it of all Black people once they seize the city. Isn’t this the perfect definition of the term "genocide"?
    According to The Journal’s article, the "rebels" refer to themselves as "the brigade for purging (…)

  • Statement of Support for the Gaza-Bound Freedom Flotilla
    5 July 2011 par (Open-Publishing)

    We, Israeli organizations, Jews and Arabs, full-heartedly support Freedom Flotilla, aim of sailing to the Port of Gaza with the proclaimed goals of breaking through the sea and land siege and blockade of Gaza, which is a manifestation of a continuing occupation by Israel. We condemn the campaign of slander which the government of Israel is waging against the flotilla and those who take part in it. There is a very real reason to worry that such lies might be designed by the government as a (…)

    By Rupert Cornwell in Washington
    Thursday, 30 June 2011
    The total cost to America of its wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, plus the related military operations in Pakistan, is set to exceed $4 trillion – more than three times the sum so far authorised by Congress in the decade since the 9/11 attacks.

    The World must stop Neocon American and Zionist Imperialist (NAZI) occupation and genocide variously in Occupied Palestine, Occupied Syria, Occupied Haiti, Occupied Somalia, Occupied Iraq and Occupied Afghanistan. The World should make 4 July Independence From America Day.
    We all know the great words of the 4 July 1776 American Declaration of Independence: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain (…)

  • Iraqi Holocaust ignoring & 26-fold Iraqi deaths under-estimation by pro-US, pro-Zionist Australian ABC
    3 July 2011 par (Open-Publishing)

    Holocaust ignoring is far worse than holocaust denial because at least the latter admits of sensible discussion. The taxpayer-funded Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) (Australia’s equivalent of the UK BBC) has under-estimated the currently 2.7 million war-related deaths in post-invasion Iraq by as much as a factor of 26 (while avoiding Australian complicity). Searches of the ABC for the terms “Iraqi Holocaust” and “Iraqi Genocide” yield zero (0) results whereas searches for “Jewish (…)

    And what next? Israel to charge Palestinians for killing them?
    A Committee of the Israeli Knesset (Parliament) passed a first draft of a law that will require that Palestinians whose homes are destroyed by Israeli forces pay the Israeli government for the demolition costs :
