Was the Bailout Itself a Scam?
By Paul Craig Roberts
After Washington's trillion dollar bank bailouts and trillion
dollar gratuitous wars for the sake of the military industry's profits and
Israeli territorial expansion, there is no money for Social Security and
Medicare.

Restoring our Financial Sovereignty
A New Monetary System
By Nikki Alexander
Today the nation is essentially bankrupt and hoping Barack
Obama's team of Wall Street advisors will forestall economic collapse. This
expectation is equivalent to hoping that Al Capone will make our streets safe.
Obama's economic recovery team is a Trojan horse filled with the same Wall
Street racketeers that infected the global economy with a quadrillion dollar
derivatives bubble, using deliberately deregulated mechanisms.

Why Avigdor Lieberman is the Worst Thing That Could Happen to the
Middle East
By Robert Fisk
Only days after they were groaning with fury at the Israeli
lobby's success in hounding the outspoken Charles Freeman away from his
proposed intelligence job for President Obama, the Arabs now have to contend
with an Israeli Foreign Minister whose - let us speak frankly - racist comments
about Palestinian loyalty tests have brought into the new Netanyahu cabinet one
of the most unpleasant politicians in the Middle East.

Freeman's Fight
The Israel Lobby Gets Its Man-And Tips Its Hand.
By Philip Weiss
Charles Freeman Jr.'s withdrawal of his acceptance of a
high-level intelligence position in the Obama administration was a
national-security drama more riveting than an episode of "24." The moral was
clear: even a president who owes his job to a progressive movement in American
politics could not support a longtime public servant who had made the mistake
of criticizing Israel.

The "Card Check" Hullabaloo
By Mike Whitney
Big business has launched a no-holds-barred propaganda blitz
against the Employee Free Choice Act. Their goal is to scare people into
believing that if the bill passes it will trigger higher unemployment and a
deeper recession. According to opponents, there's even the threat of creeping
socialism. The truth, of course, is far less dramatic. The Employee Free Choice
Act or so called "card check" simply makes it easier for unions to organize.

We Have Seen the Enemy...
By Timothy V. Gatto
When did political dissent become a reason to end up grounded at
an airport because you found out at a most inconvenient time that your name had
been mysteriously added to a "no-fly list"? When did the American government
begin building FEMA camps and what exactly is their purpose? When did Congress
become the rubber stamp for policies of reading the correspondence and
listening in on the conversations of the American public?

Preparing for Civil Unrest in America
Legislation to Establish Internment Camps on US Military Bases
By Michel Chossudovsky
Obama's populist rhetoric conceals the true nature of
macro-economic policy. Acting on behalf of Wall Street, the administration's
economic package, which includes close to a trillion dollar "aid" package for
the financial services industry, coupled with massive austerity measures,
contributes to precipitating America into a bottomless crisis.

US spills Afghan war into Pakistan:
From available indications, the key American objective is
two-fold: optimally getting Pakistani help in the fight against terrorism and,
secondly, reducing American expectations for military victory.
