Chicago: "The National Capital of Police Repression"
by Stephen Lendman
That's what Frank Donner called Chicago in his 1990 book, "Protectors of Privilege." As an ACLU attorney, he explained how city police and US intelligence agencies targeted alleged internal subversion, and while it operated "was the outstanding example of it its kind in the United States (in terms of) size, number, and range of targets or operational scope and diversity."
He referred to "wide-open, no-holds-barred style surveillance" (and vigilantism), unmatched anywhere in the country - (institutionalized) guerrilla warfare against substantial sectors of the city's population," using illegal, criminal methods, including intimidation, physical confrontation, and flagrant abuse, at times involving torture. That was then. What about now?
From 2002 - 2004 alone, over 10,000 complaints were made against police, many involving brutality, including beatings and torture. Yet only 18 resulted in disciplinary action, according to University of Chicago Law Professor Craig Futterman who uncovered the data.
Who's aiding Judaisation?
By Nicola Nasser*
Since 1860, when the American Jewish tycoon Judah Touro donated $60,000 -- a fortune for that time -- towards the construction of the first Jewish settlement outside the old walls of Jerusalem, public and private American funds have aided the creation and territorial expansion of Israel. Israel today is the foremost recipient of US aid. According to a USAID green paper, between 1946 and 2008 Israel has received more aid than Russia, India, Egypt and Iraq. In fact, the US has poured more money into Israel than it did into the Marshall Plan for the reconstruction of Europe after World War II. However, a recent New York Times article adds a new dimension to the story. On 5 July, the Times reported that, over the last decade more than 40 American groups have collected more than $200 million in tax-deductible gifts for Jewish settlements in the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem, indicating that the US Treasury is effectively aiding and abetting illegal settlement expansion and the Judaisation of Jerusalem.
Cut Social Security? Are the Democrats crazy?
By Kevin Zeese
The National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform is sounding the alarm around deficit spending is using exaggerated rhetoric to heighten deficit fear at a time when more spending is needed.
The commission’s rhetoric is working against the antidote for the economy – spending to restart job and economic growth. Forty leading economists, including nobel prize winners, issued a statement calling for more spending in the short-term. They recognized debt as a long term problem, but urged immediate increased spending to avoid prolonging and deepening the economic collapse, writing:
“We recognize the necessity of a program to cut the mid- and long-term federal deficit but the imperative requirement now, and the surest course to balance the budget over time, is to restore a full measure of economic activity. As in the 1930s, the economy is suffering a sharp decline in aggregate demand and loss of business confidence. Long experience shows that monetary policy may not be enough, particularly in deep slumps, as Keynes noted.
Barbara Boxer In The Fight Of Her Political Life
By Katherine Smith, PhD
“Barbara Boxer blasted her Republican opponent's record (Carly Fiorina) on job creation Tuesday, as both campaigns continued to spar over the best way to fix the economy in a state with one of the nation's highest unemployment rates.”
Huh. Is it possible Barbara doesn’t read the New York Times?
On May 31, 2009 David E. Sanger exposed The 31-Year-Old in Charge of Dismantling G.M who is behind the economic collapse and it’s none other than the 44th POTUS, Barack Obama.
“Brian Deese, special assistant to president Obama for economic policy, in his first government position, shuffles back and forth from the West Wing to the Treasury Department rewriting the rules of American “capitalism” as he dismantles the US [Housing,] Automobile Industry [and the American Dream].” David E. Sanger
Deese’s First Rule: Withdraw Credit and Liquidity: Causing spending to fall even further, forcing companies to cut back on inventory and staff - Creating even more unemployment…There are now 39 million Americans no longer living in 18,000,000 houses who are no longer working or looking for work. And that’s before the recently announced “planned three-year budget freeze on government discretionary spending.”
So if you think voting for Boxer or Fiorina is going to make a difference I suggest you join the 3,201,420 people who viewed JibJab’s - Time for Some Campaignin'.
Citizens gather from both far and near, for a ritual we practice every four years. When we promise you anything you wanna hear. To win the crown we’re chasing! We spend billions of dollars to make our points clear. To get you to step and cast your vote here, then we spin you around and poke you in the rear. Yes it’s Time for Some Campaignin'.
The Powers That Be (TPTB, a non-conspiracy acronym [1]) are behind Boxer, Fiorina, Biden and, of course, the candidate for change, Barack Hussein Obama.
Palestinian Children Under Occupation
by Stephen Lendman
The Al-Zaytouna Centre for Studies and Consultations is a Beirut, Lebanon-based organization engaged in "strategic and futuristic studies on the Arab and Muslim worlds, (emphasizing) the Palestinian issue." In July 2010, it published the latest in its "Am I Not a Human?" series titled, "The Suffering of the Palestinian Child under the Israeli Occupation," saying:
Palestinian children grow up "under the Israeli occupation, surrounded by cruelty, oppression, killing, starvation and destruction." Yet, like all children, they dream of playing and living normally and safely. Instead, their father may be dead or in prison, their brother killed, their home destroyed, and their mother forced to give birth at an Israeli checkpoint, risking her and the newborn.
Refuting Palazzi's lies
by Khalid Amayereh
He easily forgets that most Ashkenazi Jews are actually Russians, poles, and other East Europeans of Khazari origin, brought by Zionism to Palestine to live on land that belongs to another people. Besides, since when did God promise these racist thugs the land of Palestine?"
(Massimo) Abdul Hadi Palazzi calls himself a "Muslim Zionist," an oxymoron that really raises the eyebrows of many people, especially in the Muslim world. He is notorious for his excessively pro-Israeli articles and statements in which he claims that Islam's holy scripture, the Quran, supports the creation of the Zionist state of Israel. He completely ignores the Nazi-like characters of his beloved state, suggesting that Almighty God would favor evil.
Self Defense for Radicals: Collective Soul - Activist Heart
Mickey Z.
In his book, Climate Wars: The Fight for Survival as the World Overheats democracynow.org, author Gwynne Dyer presents a series of scenarios that could potentially play out (soon) as climate change advances, e.g. several million dying in cyclones and floods in Bangladesh, the US building a mined fence to stop "climate refugees" from the South, tens of millions of Chinese dead in droughts…and then things get truly catastrophic.
Such so-called "gloom and doom" is often greeted with either denial or mockery but staring dead-on into the reality we've all helped create is the first step in the following outline for personal, intellectual, and global self-defense planetgreen.discovery.com.
Public Anger and Distrust of Business and Government
by Stephen Lendman
An April 2010 Pew Research Center (PRC) for the People & Press study and others report growing public anger, distrust, and hostility toward business and government because of a "perfect storm of conditions" - wrecked economies, fueling "epic discontent" toward responsible officials.
PRC found nearly 80% of Americans don't trust government to do the right thing, the highest distrust level in half a century, this writer's April 28 article, titled "Growing Public Anger in America," discussing its findings, accessed through the following link:
http://sjlendman.blogspot.com/2010/04/growing-public-anger-in-america.html
People want help when they most need it, but aren't getting it, privilege always trumping the public interest, getting more extreme in America, Canada, and throughout Europe, a prescription for greater outrage, perhaps fury for beneficial change.

THE BIG LIE / BP'S DEALINGS IN THE GULF
Allen L Roland
Never believe anything BP says regarding the capping of its damaged well. BP is all about profit and self protection and has yet to mention the massive gushing hole on the ocean floor a few miles away or provided details on its mysterious $20 billion dollar escrow fund.
Here are three reasons to mistrust anything BP says about capping its damaged well and halting the current environmental disaster in the Gulf. As Dahr Jamail confirms from the Gulf ~ "Given BP's proven propensity towards lying, skeptics - who are consistently needed to keep BP's rhetoric in check - are also pointing toward other factors that could mean oil is continuing to spew into the Gulf near the well."
