Noam Chomsky Interview on CBC

Part 1 (This is really Chomsky at his best. Not only is he patient with this kid and very well versed in the history of the conflict but he also comes across in a way that reminds me of a professor speaking to a student, in a way that is at the same time demanding [...]

Obama’s Efforts to Block a Judicial Ruling on Bush’s Illegal Eavesdropping

by Glenn Greenwald, Common Dreams The Obama DOJ’s embrace of Bush’s state secrets privilege in the Jeppesen (torture/rendition) case generated substantial outrage, and rightly so.  But it’s now safe to say that far worse is the Obama DOJ’s conduct in the Al-Haramain case — the only remaining case against the Government with any real chance of resulting in [...]

Financiers Used “Hotline” to SEC Examiners (to kill investigations)

In a government of bankers run by bankers for the benefit of bankers, this shouldn’t surprise anyone… Washington, DC – In a hearing which exposed failures by the government’s financial police, Congressman Stephen Lynch (D-Massachusetts) highlighted the existence of a “hotline,” which he said could be used by Wall Street firms to call off government [...]

A “Nation of Cowards” Run by a Coward. Right Mr. Holder?

by Scott Creighton (Jesus, if I were a late night talk show host, this would be gold… pure gold.) On the last day of Black History month, it was revealed that America’s first black president would not be sending a delegation to attend the World Conference on Racism, this year to be held in Geneva, [...]

Cop Beats Teenage Girl for Kicking Off Her Shoe

This video speaks for itself, though I have to add, that from what the other officer does afterward, by jumping in and helping the criminally out of control Deputy Schene, 31, rather than the child, we can clearly see this problem is systemic in nature in the King County Sheriff’s department. These two probably filed [...]

Wanna Watch Finkelstein Take Zionist Wolf Blitzer to the Woodshed?

Its an old-school beat-down… thing of beauty to watch. [full transcript available after the break, for Greg over there....]

U.S. will not attend U.N. conference on racism

(still more “Change”… the U.S. under President Obama refuses to take part in a conference because it may end up debating whether or not Zionism is a form of racism or call into question key aspects of Israel’s foreign policy. After 3 weeks of attempted genocide in Gaza, I can see why Israel won’t show [...]

Noam Chomsky:Hegemony or Survival

“Across the board, the question of hegemony or survival is one we must face if we care about our grand-children.”

Since When Do You Pay a Courtesy Call to a War Criminal?

by Scott Creighton Before announcing to the “free” world that he was going to take 19 months (don’t forget we are already a month into the Obama regime) instead of 16 to remove “combat” troops from Iraq (leaving 50,000 or so to battle “the terrorists” a.k.a. Iraqis that don’t want to serve Imperial America/Kellogg, Brown [...]

Fuck Obama Revisited

by Scott Creighton Months ago I wrote a rather scathing OpEd ( “Fuck You Obama you Sell-Out Piece of Shit“) directed at the Democratic nominee for the White House, Barck Obama, for his reversal on his previously stated position regarding the people of Palestine and his apparent complete disregard for their suffering in lieu of [...]

Yes we are raging – against a Government that spies on its citizens while ignoring the crimes of greedy bankers

(“The innocent are being punished while the guilty continue to lead affluent lives.” …. sound familiar?  What we are seeing is the exact same criminal behavior on the part of international bankers that we see here in the U.S., taking place all across the globe. They are purposefully and deliberately undermining the economic system, world-wide, [...]

Indict Bush and Impeach Obama

Liberal Leaders Betray Antiwar Cause To Serve Dems and Obama — Again by John Walsh, Dissident Voice In the Wall Street Journal of January 24, the loathsome McCarthyite neocon David Horowitz gazed approvingly on the inauguration of Barack Obama.

Israel PM suspends Hamas ceasefire negotiator

(So the chief negotiator for Israel in the peace process with Hamas just got fired for reporting that Israel is the main obstacle to the peace process (surprise surprise). Not only are they holding up the peace process in general, but also the release of an Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit.) by Rory McCarthy from the [...]

After the Appointment of Neo-Con War-Monger Dennis Ross, Obama says he will not “govern out of anger or yield to the politics of the moment”

(lost in the rhetoric of the Obama-love moment, the State Department announced that Dennis Ross will be their Special Envoy dealing with the Iran issue.
