  • The real reasons behind the United Nations’ Libya vote
    19 March 2011 par (Open-Publishing)

    A new war has been declared in the Middle East. With the bloody and failing occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan still in place, the USA, Britain and France are now committed to an escalating armed intervention in Libya.
    The decision to attack Libya and impose regime change – for that is what the UN resolution means – may have been authorised by the Security Council. But it was instigated by the despots of the Arab League, desperate to secure deeper western involvement in the region to save (…)

  • A Palestinian Wrong Way to Peace

    When allowed to turn freely, the metaphoric Palestinian compass points in one direction — that of Palestinian struggle. But most of the time, someone is interfering with this compass, rigging it to other directions, as in the case of the continually failing peace process.
    Now, with much of the Arab world up in arms against its autocratic rulers, the Palestinian compass is given another nudge, also in the wrong direction. The Palestinian public is seething, and yet (…)

    Cuban Revolution leader said that in contrast with what is happening in Egypt and Tunisia, Libya occupies the first spot on the Human Development Index for Africa and it has the highest life expectancy on the continent. Education and health receive special attention from the State. The cultural level of its population is without a doubt the highest. Its problems are of a different sort.

    “Let’s just call a spade a spade. A no-fly zone begins with an attack on Libya to destroy the air defenses … Then you can fly planes around the country and not worry about our guys being shot down,” he told a congressional hearing.
    Friends, this astounding statement came from Robert Gates, the U.S. Defense Secretary, one of the warlords of the Obama Administration. What he’s saying is that the U.S. must destroy all the air defenses which surround military airports and probably around many (…)

  • Palestinian September 2011 Deadline Doomed
    17 February 2011 par (Open-Publishing)

    By Nicola Nasser*
    The international Quartet of the US, EU, UN and Russia on Middle East peace and the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) seem set on an agenda that perceives September 2011 as an historical political watershed deadline. Among the partners to the Quartet – sponsored Palestinian – Israeli “peace process,” practically deadlocked since the collapse of the US, Palestinian and Israeli trilateral summit in Camp David in 2000, only the Israeli government of Prime Minister (…)

    by Rob Lonaker
    Dear Israel,
    My son Jeff, a U.S. Army soldier, is sworn to defend Israel against all its enemies. At least that’s how his commanding officers and the guys in his squad figure it, because America and Israel have exactly the same interests. Our countries are like one. Perfect allies!
    Plus, like his mother and me, his whole platoon is (…)

    (San Francisco) - Iran’s publicly avowed goal, stated world wide, is to go into the uranium fuel rod business, not build nuclear weapons. That is reflected in the uranium enrichment equipment Iran owns and operates. President Ahamadinejad is regularly seen proclaiming this all over the world in a concerted Iranian effort to steal away nuclear reactor fuel rod customers from the US or France.
    The deadly serious CIA partnered with the equally lethal assassins in the Israeli Intelligence (…)

    Pakistan Egypt Frankenstein Matters
    To Benazhir Bhutto, an Islamic moderate and Lewis Awad, a moderate Arab Coptic Christian, the name Frankenstein mattered. If the dates associated with the novel ‘Frankenstein’ and attacks by Al Qaeda are compared there is a pattern targeting major Capitols, the UN and India.
