I am trying to help An-Najah National University find teaching staff and volunteers to fill the chronic short-fall in staff. We are having difficulties finding teaching staff who are willing to live and work in the besieged city of Nablus. The closure regime and checkpoints surrounding Nablus deter many people from coming to work here, and, as you can see from the long list of short-fall subjects below, the University is finding it difficult to attract Faculty members. Yet, many rewarding, (…)

FSB reports circulating in the Kremlin today, however, point to a much more sinister (…)

I am almost ashamed to see that it has been a year and a half since I wrote part 4 ("The Onion Peeled"), which ends on the optimistic note that Bush and Cheney might be impeached if the Democrats won the 2006 elections.
That optimism was born of desperation, because I felt the danger of another, and worse, 9/11 false flag event was imminent at that time. The fact that it did not occur, and the fact that the Democrats won that election, subsequently gaining control of the Senate as (…)

What should every person know about the food they ingest. The documentary "The Future of Food" changed the way we think about food(and continues to do so) by answering this very question.

BAQUBA, Mar 10 (IPS) - Iraq’s children have been more gravely affected by the U.S. occupation than any other segment of the population.
The United Nations estimated that half a million Iraqi children died during more than 12 years of economic sanctions that preceded the U.S. invasion of March 2003, primarily as a result of malnutrition and disease.
But childhood malnutrition in Iraq has increased 9 percent since then, according to an Oxfam International (…)

One definition of a dictator is “a person exercising absolute power”, while a leader is defined as “one who is in charge or in command of others.” This does not mean that the two words are unrelated. A leader can be a dictator and a dictator can be leader. The difference is in the implied method of rule.
To describe someone as a dictator is to imply that they are ruthless and biased; to describe someone as a leader implies that they understand the needs of those that they rule. A dictator (…)

Mrs. Kern:
I’ve just listened to the 20-minute interview you had with Oklahoma City’s TV-9 in regard to the public speech you made sometime after the first of the year deriding and demeaning Oklahoma’s gay/lesbian taxpaying citizens.

Mr. Werrell and friends,
It is not the measure of how Sen. Barack Obama responds to the negative attacks of the Clinton Machine but, rather how we as voters respond to them when casting our vote at the polls.
Keeping that in mind, so far it would appear that some are willing to reward negative behavior.
No wonder people like George W. Bush have never been held accountable for anything in their entire life.
Then again, 1 (…)
