How Massacres Become the Norm

US soldiers killing innocent civilians in Iraq is not news. Just as it was not news that US soldiers slaughtered countless innocent civilians in Vietnam. However, when some rare reportage of this non news from Iraq does seep through the cracks of the corporate media, albeit briefly, the American public seems shocked.

FBI Whistleblower Colleen Rowley Warns Zacarias Moussaoui Trial May Mark Last Time Bush Administration Use Courts to Try Terror Suspects

We turn now to the trial of Zacarias Moussaoui. On Monday, a jury ruled Moussaoui is eligible for the death penalty in connection to his role in the 9/11 attacks. Moussaoui has already pleaded guilty to conspiring to hijack aircraft with al-Quaida and other crimes. He’s claimed he was supposed to have been part of the 9/11 plot and that he was training to fly a fifth hijacked plane into the White House on that day. He’s said he lied to the FBI after his arrest to allow the Sept. 11 attacks to go forward. The trial will now move into its second phase, where the jurors will decide whether Moussaoui should be executed.

What national interests? Perhaps Stephen Harper would deign to tell Canadians.

Reckless Rites: Purim and the Legacy of Jewish Violence

Elliott Horowitz, born in New York City in 1953, is (2003) an Associate Professor in the Department of Jewish History at Bar-Ilan University. He is coeditor of the Jewish Quarterly Review.

Abstract: Historical accounts of Jewish violence--particularly against Christians--have long been explosive material. Some historians have distorted these records for anti-Semitic purposes. Others have discounted, dismissed, or simply ignored the evidence, often for apologetic purposes.

Canada's shameful hypocrisy on Palestine

Kudos to the reader who can remember the last time Canada asked Israel to end its occupation of Palestinian territories; or to stop expanding settlements; or to dismantle the wall; or to abide by UN Security Council resolutions.

Give up? Don't blame yourself. These events have either never happened, or have not happened in a long time. Recent governments have drifted away from Canada's long-standing Mideast policy that recognized Palestinian rights under international law. Last week, Canada became the first country after Israel to break ties with the new Hamas-led government in the Palestinian Authority. Hamas does not "respect existing agreements to follow the road map, to recognize Israel as a state and to renounce all violence," Foreign Affairs Minister Peter MacKay said in justifying Canada's decision, which also cut off millions of dollars in aid.

Shameful hypocrisy, Mr. Minister.

Evangelicals Rally Their Flocks Behind Israel

Charismatic televangelist John Hagee thinks that the Rev.

But he nevertheless appears to share Robertson's concern that Israel may be giving up too much land to the Palestinians.

77 TV stations aired 'fake news reports'

A study by a group that monitors the media reveals that, over a ten month span, 77 television stations from all across the nation aired video news releases without informing their viewers even once that the reports were actually sponsored content, RAW STORY has found.

And remember: these were only the 77 statiions which got caught for this practice. There are no FCC laws stating that what the talking heads on television or radio are obliged to tell you the truth.
