One. Two. Three. Four---What the hell are we remembering for?Do we seriously believe that our soldiers, airmen and sailors fought against Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy and Imperial Japan only to bequeath to us a world terrorized by Israel, the U.S. and Great Britain? |

To become an occupier"No international relationship has been more untouchable in the politics of American foreign policy than the US-Israeli alliance. For decades, the brute power of the pro-Israel “lobby” has had Congress in the palm of its hand, ready to override virtually any presidential initiative not favored by Israel." |

Politics of the Volcker Report on the Oil-for-Food Program"The Volcker report is completely silent over the role of these agents who had been deliberately deployed to twist the whole objective of providing humanitarian needs against the sale of the oil by the UN." |

Off with his head!"In absolute fairness, Iran should be put before the UN to address any charge. Israel can debate its neighbor side-by-side, face-to-face, equal time. Israel can then tell us why it contravenes scores of UN Resolutions, extra-judicially assassinates political leaders, and has hundreds of nuclear weapons it refuses acknowledge let alone account for." |

The Original and the First Environmental Protection Agency"Humans are destroying the environment for the future generations by getting benefits for the current generation through the industrialization of the world." |

Surveillance Society"Communism in Eastern Bloc nations failed because so many societal resources were wasted on control, leaving few available for individual initiative and creativity. Liberty and privacy make people happy, creative, productive, and rich. The U.S. government—and the businesses and non-profit groups that are following the “control-oriented” social norms fostered by government action—should take heed and let freedom ring." |

Israel as an Extension of American Empire"Israel provided key support for the US in Iraq, including the construction of mock Iraqi neighborhoods and villages in the Negev where American troops could train. The American military government in Iraq, the "Civil Administration," was patterned after the Israeli Civil Administration that rules the Occupied Territories. Israeli involvement in the defense-related economies in the districts of most members of Congress explains to a great degree why Israel enjoys the uncritical support it does. The Israeli astronaut who died in the Challenger accident testifies to the intimate involvement of Israel in the most guarded parts of the American military, where even European countries are excluded. In fact, Israel has just taken delivery of advanced F-16s and helicopter gunships that have been denied Europe." |

Dousing the Plame Flames"...Fitzgerald’s investigation has enlightened the public on the role of Judith Miller, Arthur Sulzberger, Lewis Libby and the White House Iraq Group. But the real prize out there is Douglas Feith – the designated neo-con cherry picker responsible for systematically corrupting pre-war intelligence. An investigation of the Office of Special Plans will focus attention on his central role in orchestrating and coordinating the propaganda campaign that duped the American people. Fitzgerald has no mandate to investigate Feith. But your Senator does. If every concerned citizen would just pick up the phone and demand that their elected representatives provide answers about the OSP – we will be that much closer to understanding how and why we got into this war and that much closer to ending our military misadventures in Iraq." |
