Baghdad is Surrounded: “The American Era in the Middle East has ended”
After 3 and a half years of violence and mayhem we still know as little about the Iraqi resistance as we did in March 2003. This is inexcusable. In addition, there’s been no attempt to engage the representatives of the resistance in political dialogue. How can we possibly reach a political solution without dialogue and negotiation?

British believe Bush is more dangerous than Kim Jong-il
America is now seen as a threat to world peace by its closest neighbours and allies, according to an international survey of public opinion published today that reveals just how far the country's reputation has fallen among former supporters since the invasion of Iraq.

Islamic Fascism?
The Bush administration's labeling of radical Islamic movements and leaders as fascist, or "Islamofascism," is sheer nonsense. It betrays either blatant demagoguery, or shameful ignorance, or most probably, both.

Baptist Convention told: Muslims 'are here to take over our country'
CAPE GIRARDEAU - The prophets of the Hebrew scriptures are known for their warnings of doom and gloom, but even Jeremiah - arguably the gloomiest Old Testament sage - would have tipped his hat to the Rev. David Clippard at the Missouri Baptist Convention's annual meeting here this week.
On the same moral level as the Nazi claim that Jews were killing Christian babies in their temples.

Dictatorship : America's last chance
On the other hand, if Republicans steal the election again, and Democrats are silent again, and the media again won't report it ...
... If fraud is all over the blogs but the reports never crack the mainstream media,
... If there's no outcry, no furious protests that threaten to shut down this criminal government ...
... Then it will finally, inarguable be clear that both parties, and the media, are in on the fix.
It will finally be obvious, even to stubborn hold-outs like me, that democracy is over in America.

Dictatorship : We're All Prisoners, Now: US Citizens to be Required ''Clearance'' to Leave USA

American Prison Planet - The Bush Administration as Global Jailor
The American gulag is so much more than Guantanamo and so much worse. The combination of U.S. "homeland" prisons, where "one in 140 Americans, or as many people as live in Namibia, or nearly five Luxembourgs" are locked away, the offshore imperial detention facilities, the shadowy CIA black sites, and the ever-shifting outsourced detention facilities operated by other nations adds up to something new in history -- the makings of a veritable American prison planet.

TORTURE SCANDAL : Guantanamo mission to explain may be hopeless
John Bellinger, the top legal adviser to the State Department, in London this week, set himself on a mission to explain to critics why the Military Commissions Act signed by President Bush last month should answer their objections.
Memo to John Bellinger: what the Military Commisions Act has done has been to legally smash one of the great pillars of the American system of justice (habeus corpus), and legalize the torture of anyone the current executive branch of the government decides to torture, be they US citizens or not.

It's Always Darkest, Right Before ... It Goes Completely Black
While I harbor little affection for nor feel any affinity with the corrupt establishment of the Democratic Party, I don't believe, as is the case with the present leadership of the Republican party, they're a klavern of insane, death-smitten apocalypticists. However, I do believe that a craven desire for power and privilege has transformed them into morally bankrupt, lickspittle, corporate stooges.

Blood and money
The United States promised a democracy when the Civil Rights Act became law in 1964 and the Voting Rights Act the following year finally ended slavery. For the next decade, the civil-rights movement joined the great popular movement to end the slaughter in Vietnam, and Congress legislated to restrain the CIA's secretive parallel power. It was a fleeting intermission.

The “War against Terror” is a War against the People.
In this interview recorded by Swiss journalist Silvia Cattori in November 2005 - more than six months before the war launched against Lebanon by Israeli army in summer 2006 - Youssef Aschkar was warning that the destabilization of Lebanon, Syria and Iran was under way, and that Lebanon was the country most threatened and most vulnerable to the Israeli menace. In the light of the recent developments in the region, the accuracy of his analysis appears impressive and almost prophetic...

Baghdad received less than six hours a day of electricity last month, and much of Iraq’s population lives with untreated sewage and without clean water. But Bechtel, having received $2.3 billion of taxpayers’ money and having lost the lives of 52 employees, has come to the end of its last government contract.

US vs. AIPAC
But somehow along the way, some of these organizations were hijacked by Zionists who equated Jewishness with being the loyal supporters of Israel. This minority group set about turning these lobbying groups' agendas from one of fighting against prejudice to one of working to advance Israel's interest. A large number of Jewish Americans naturally did not, and do not, agree with the aim of these Zionists. This silent majority (such as the Neturei Karta group, Peace now movement etc) is seen by the Zionists as false Jews who are traitors to the state of Israel.

The Election Farce
The only reason the Democratic Party is against the fiasco in Iraq is because the U.S. is losing the war. It’s all about “bad planning,” or “bad timing,” or whatever. If Bush and Co. had easily subjugated the nation and controlled the oil fields, the entire U.S. ruling class and their paid politicians would be joyous.

Whether Karl Rove engineers another electoral-coup or not, is beside the point. The system has been reshaped to meet the needs and aspirations of the ruling mandarins.
