US military authorities admitted that the victims were innocent civilians sheltering in their own home, as they had been advised to do by US and NATO officials IPCC Errors: Facts And Spin By Real Climate http://www.countercurrents.org/rc150210.htm Currently, a few errors –and supposed errors– in the last IPCC report (“AR4″) are making the media rounds – together with a lot of distortion and professional spin by parties interested in discrediting climate science. Time for us to sort the wheat from the chaff: which of these putative errors are real, and which not? And what does it all mean, for the IPCC in particular, and for climate science more broadly? Copenhagen Failed Us. What Do We Do Next? By Nicholas C. Arguimbau http://www.countercurrents.org/arguimbau150210.htm Is it hopeless? Apparently so if we are going to be dependent on the governments and the corporations. Yet in taking that position, we are putting aside an "inconvenient truth" - inconvenient because we might rather put responsibility on irresistible forces out there in the universe than on ourselves Viral Collapse By Guy R. McPherson http://www.countercurrents.org/mcpherson150210.htm Even as the greatest economic implosion in world history accelerates, the underlying cause — peak oil — remains chronically under-reported. Nonetheless, Sir Richard Branson finally is warning that the peak-oil crunch will be worse than the credit crunch (thereby failing to recognize the importance of the former in creating the latter), the Wall Street Journal is warning us to prepare for peak oil, and British oil companies and CEOs are sounding the alarm Open Letter To NYT’s Roger Cohen By Alan Hart http://www.countercurrents.org/hart150210.htm Over the past few months I have saluted your courage in seeking to open the eyes of New York Times’ readers to some of the differences between Zionist propaganda and what the facts on the ground in Israel/Palestine are telling us US Brags Haiti Response Is A 'Model' While More Than A Million Remain Homeless In Haiti By Bill Quigley http://www.countercurrents.org/quigley150210.htm Despite the fact that over a million people remained homeless in Haiti one month after the earthquake, the U.S. Ambassador to Haiti, Ken Merten, is quoted at a State Department briefing on February 12, saying "In terms of humanitarian aid delivery...frankly, it's working really well, and I believe that this will be something that people will be able to look back on in the future as a model for how we've been able to sort ourselves out as donors on the ground and responding to an earthquake." Haiti Is Open For Business By Stephen Lendman http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman150210.htm Haiti is called "the Republic of NGOs," with over 10,000 operating (according to World Bank estimates) for its nine million people, the highest per capita presence worldwide in all sectors of activity and society, many with sizable budgets. Yet their numbers beg the question. With that abundant firepower, why is Haiti the poorest country in the hemisphere, one of the poorest in the world, and one of the most oppressed? Why were so many Haitians starving pre-quake? Why now are conditions catastrophic and worsening? Hold Onto Your Underwear: This Is NOT A National Emergency By Tom Engelhardt http://www.countercurrents.org/engelhardt150210.htm So the next time a Flight 253 occurs and the Republicans go postal, the media morphs into its 24/7 national-security-disaster mode, the pundits register red on the terror-news scale, the president defends himself by reaffirming that he is doing just what the Bush administration would have done, the homeland security lobbyists begin calling for yet more funds for yet more machinery, and nothing much happens, remember those drunken drivers, arsonists, and tobacco merchants, even that single dust devil and say: Hold onto your underpants, this is not a national emergency GM Crops: All That You Want To Know But Were Never Told By Devinder Sharma http://www.countercurrents.org/sharma150210.htm The historic decision not to introduce Bt Brinjal in India has opened up a can of worms. Agricultural scientists and the private seed companies have come under a clout, and therefore an orchestrated media campaign has been launched. It is therefore important to explain some of the hotly debated aspects of the decision, which are getting lost in the media trial.
