"Dear Senator Obama:
I’m concerned that you’ve yet to show a grasp of Middle East realities. Nor have you provided a broad critique of US policy in that region beyond your early opposition to the invasion of Iraq. This lapse is dispiriting to we who had hoped your “change” mantra meant you intended to reverse the neo-con drive for global hegemony.
If you do grasp Middle Eastern realities, your choices of advisors and cabinet members suggest that you are aligning yourself (…)

The Monster Factory By David Glenn Cox
“True they have tried, but their efforts have been cast in the pattern of an outworn tradition. Faced by failure of credit they have proposed only the lending of more money. Stripped of the lure of profit by which to induce our people to follow their false leadership, they have resorted to exhortations, pleading tearfully for restored confidence. They know only the rules of a generation of self-seekers. They have no vision, and when there is no (…)

“When you’re born, you get a ticket to the freak show. When you’re born in America, you get a front row seat. - George Carlin
O.J. Simpson, the “Juice,” had it all: the life of the “rich and famous” in LaLaLand. He had a sterling career in college football as a star halfback at the U. of Southern California. That was followed by even more success as an NFL “All Pro” halfback, mostly with the Buffalo Bills. He made his mark, too, in Hollywood as an actor: he served as a pitch man for (…)

Canada’s New Democratic Party has abandoned it’s nominally anti-war stance on Afghanistan. The NDP has recently formed a coalition with the opposition pro-war Liberal Party in an attempt to oust the ruling Conservatives.
This abandonment of a principled anti-war position by a "left" party has been barely reported by the always subservient mainstream corporate media in Canada. It is a shocking and appalling position for a social democratic party to take and should not go unnoticed or (…)

Doubts and People
Some people have raised doubts about the `theory’ I am circulating supposedly on the net.
They have every right to question and doubt anyone and anything. After all doubt is the mother of all kinds of right thinking.

Comment By Nasir Mahmood
Karachi—The Indian Government referring to Mumbai carnage is acting like the Israeli tyrants, blaming for their own failure to Pakistan which is struggling with the same elements of terrorism and rogue groups.
What the people of India have to address and realize is the treatment of the Muslim communities in Gujrat and many areas, let alone their terrorism inflicted upon the innocent guard less Kashmiris. One would love to see the same people who are so easily (…)
