    US Predators Provoke Pakistan
    by Michael Carmichael
    Global Research, March 26, 2009 PlanetaryMovement.org
    Commenting to the New York Times about the rapidly deteriorating situation in Pakistan, Admiral Dennis Blair, the Director of National Intelligence, admitted, “No one that I have talked to has come up with a grand strategy for that area.”
    Given the now official fact of a strategy vacuum for Pakistan as well as the smoldering carcass of US strategy in Afghanistan, the US has (…)

    Netanyahu and the ‘Future of the Peace Process’
    by Ramzy Baroud
    Global Research, March 27, 2009
    It seems that the Palestinian-Israeli ‘peace process’ is in serious jeopardy. At least, this is the immediate impression one gleans from media reports from Israel. Unlike, Israel’s Kadima and Labor party ‘moderates’, Prime Minister-designate Benjamin Netanyahu is largely considered to be a possible impairment to the negotiations aimed at facilitating a two-state solution. The media story, (…)

    Just after the 6th anniversary of the illegal, war criminal invasion of Iraq by the US, UK and Australia I received from the eminent Brussels Tribunal organization a detailed statement by Iraqi woman academic Professor Souad N. Al-Azzawi. We are both members of the Advisory Board of the BRussells Committee (see: ) .
    Her article is entitled “Let the Numbers speak” and details horrendous carnage in Occupied Iraq over 6 years of foreign occupation and is reproduced below in the interests of (…)

  • Vacuum..
    26 March 2009 par (Open-Publishing)

    I think I have already mentioned it - I hate domestic work. I find no glory, no satisfaction and no pleasure in cleaning, sweeping, dusting, washing and vacuuming...
    I noticed my rug, it needs a clean sweep. Major vacuuming. An industrial, highly efficient, manufactured machine to suck out all the dust...
    But I force myself to do it. I think of it as a stoic enterprise in "character building". And while am building my character, I fantasize that this huge industrial complex has invented (…)

  • 4.2 million victim US-UK-Australian-Zionist Iraqi Holocaust & Western Media pro-Zionist Holocaust Denial
    22 March 2009 par (Open-Publishing)
    1 comment

    Genocide denial and holocaust denial are wrong and utterly repugnant for 3 major reasons: (1) it is falsehood; (2) it is profoundly offensive to the memory of the victims, survivors of such atrocities, their loved ones and indeed to all of decent humanity; and (3) it increases the probability of repetition of such awful crimes – history ignored and history denied yields history repeated.
    Indeed it is for these sorts of reasons that Germany recently controversially proposed a measure that (…)

  • 667 US Afghan War deaths, 4-6 million Afghan excess deaths, 100,000 dead so far in Obama’s War on Terror
    20 March 2009 par (Open-Publishing)
    1 comment

    As summarized in the title, 667 US soldiers have died so far in the Afghan War as compared to 4-6 million violent and non-violent Afghan excess deaths. So far, in the first 2 months of the Obama presidency, non-violent Indigenous Asian excess deaths and under-5 infant deaths in the Occupied Palestinian, Iraqi and Afghan Territories total about 100,000 and 70,000, respectively. Obama could stop all 3 holocausts tomorrow but he simply won’t - "yes we can" clearly doesn’t extend to cessation of (…)

  • U.S. Moment of Truth on Palestinian – Israeli Conflict
    18 March 2009 par (Open-Publishing)

    By Nicola Nasser*
    In view of a world consensus on a two – state solution for the Arab – Israeli conflict, most political analysts and commentators have concluded that the Israeli Prime Minister – designate Benjamin Netanyahu, who still refuses to affirm his commitment thereto, was to come face to face with his “moment of truth” during his recent meetings earlier this month with visiting U.S. Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, and her “presidential” envoy for peace in the Middle East, (…)

    “The Armenian Genocide, also known as the Armenian Holocaust, the Armenian Massacres and, by Armenians, the Great Calamity - refers to the deliberate and systematic destruction (genocide) of the Armenian population of the Ottoman Empire during and just after World War I. It was characterised by the use of massacres, and the use of deportations involving forced marches under conditions designed to lead to the death of the deportees, with the total number of Armenian deaths generally held to (…)

  • Nato Counter summit in Strasburg
    12 March 2009 par (Open-Publishing)

    April 3rd and 4th — Strasburg. NATO turns 60. Let’s celebrate. An opportunity to seize, a call to be heard. Counter-summit in Strasburg: not an appointment with the Power, but a meeting with the situation.
    Civilization knew it was bound to die someday – but only in theory. After several shocks and attacks, it now feels it through all its fibers, all its vital flows. A feeling of death in the democratic air. It is no longer denied, it has become a threat, a pretext for mobilization. Powers (…)
