The US War against Iraq: The Destruction of a Civilization

August 21st, 2009

James Petras

The US seven-year war and occupation of Iraq is driven by several major political forces and informed by a variety of imperial interests. However these interests do not in themselves explain the depth and scope of the sustained, massive and continuing destruction of an entire society and its reduction to a permanent state of war. The range of political forces contributing to the making of the war and the subsequent US occupation include the following (in order of importance):

The most important political force was also the least openly discussed. The Zionist Power Configuration (ZPC), which includes the prominent role of long-time, hard-line unconditional Jewish supporters of the State of Israel appointed to top positions in the Bush Pentagon (Douglas Feith and Paul Wolfowitz ), key operative in the Office of the Vice President (Irving (Scooter) Libby), the Treasury Department (Stuart Levey), the National Security Council (Elliot Abrams) and a phalanx of consultants, Presidential speechwriters (David Frum), secondary officials and policy advisers to the State Department. These committed Zionists ‘insiders’ were buttressed by thousands of full-time Israel-First functionaries in the 51 major American Jewish organizations, which form the President of the Major American Jewish Organizations (PMAJO). They openly stated that their top priority was to advance Israel’s agenda, which, in this case, was a US war against Iraq to overthrow Saddam Hussein, occupy the country, physically divide Iraq, destroy its military and industrial capability and impose a pro-Israel/pro-US puppet regime. If Iraq were ethnically cleansed and divided, as advocated by the ultra-right, Israeli Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu and the ‘Liberal’ President Emeritus of the Council on Foreign Relations and militarist-Zionist, Leslie Gelb, there would be more than several ‘client regimes’.

Open Letter to President Obama: Remember the Lessons of the 1938 Munich Conference

August 21st, 2009

By Gary G. Kohls, MD

Remember the Lessons of the 1938 Munich Conference and all the Flak Chamberlain Received when he “Appeased” Treacherous, Cunning, Pathological Liars

It seems to be a truism in the history of the world that fascists only respect those who are tough and never compromise. In that light, President Obama, it is good to remember what happened in September of 1938 when British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain met with Adolph Hitler in Munich when the Fuhrer was threatening to go to war to take over Czechoslovakia’s Sudentenland.

Was the 2008 Financial Collapse An Inside Job?

August 21st, 2009

Robert Singer

Maybe it’s the smoke from Mt. Vesuvius that keeps Arianna Huffington and the financial community from seeing that the economic collapse has nothing to do with the Fed "missing" the warning signs leading up to the October meltdown.

“Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.” - John F. Kennedy

The Fed didn’t miss anything; the October meltdown was an inside job.

The vaccines are far more deadly than the swine flu

August 21st, 2009

by Dr. Mae-Wan Ho and Prof. Joe Cummins

The vaccines are far more deadly than the swine flu. Mass vaccinations is a recipe for disaster Dr. Mae-Wan Ho and Prof. Joe Cummins

This report has been submitted to Sir Liam Donaldson, Chief Medical Officer of the UK, and to the US Food and Drugs Administration

A swine flu outbreak occurred in Mexico and the United States in April 2009 and spread rapidly around the world by human-to human transmission. The new type A H1N1 influenza virus is unlike any that had been previously isolated [1, 2], judging from the first data released in May.

It is a messy combination of sequences from bird, human and swine flu virus lineages from North America and Eurasia. A senior virologist based in Canberra, Australia, told the press he thought that the virus could have been created in a laboratory and released by accident [3]. Some analysts even suggest, without corroborating evidence, that it was made intentionally as a bioweapon [4], while others blame the intensive livestock industry and extensive trafficking of love animals over long distances, which provide plenty of opportunity for generating exotic recombinants [5].

URGENT - H1N1 Vaccine Patent Filed (2007) Long Before the Swine Flue Virus Was Spread!

August 21st, 2009

Walter Burien

The following is my reply to John Perna per a US Patent Application filed, with one aspect of the patent being for the Swine Flue virus vaccine (H1N1). The patent application was filed long before the Mexican Swine Flu supposedly came forward as a new strain of virus coming out of a "Pig Farm" in Mexico.

In John's post copied in part below my reply, he thought the patent application for the H1N1 vaccine was from 2008 shortly before the swine flue broke out in Mexico.

OBAMA FACES REALITY / NO CHANGE WITHOUT ACTION

August 21st, 2009

Allen L Roland

Refusing to take a needed stand for single pay health reform ~ President Obama is facing the tough political reality that there is no change without determined action and, according to Onion News, it's beginning to take its toll on his health:

Have you noticed recently that President Obama seems to be aging rapidly under the pressures of a badly slumping economy ( that he inherited from the Bush Administration), a top down economic stimulus plan that is leaving Main Street high and dry and a health Care Reform package that does not include what over 70% of Americans want ~ Single pay health care.

The Obstacles to Real Health Care Reform: Private Insurers and Big PhRMA

August 21st, 2009

by Stephen Lendman

In almost the same breath on August 17, the White House effectively dropped a real public option (that likely never existed) while Obama was telling the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) that the Pentagon will escalate the Afghanistan/Pakistan war into a long-term conflict that will assure "more difficult days ahead." He did so in defiance of international and Constitutional law, the lives and welfare of American forces, millions in both target countries, and lied at the same time saying: "This is not a war of choice. This is a war of necessity" in plain contradiction of the fact that in October 2001, US forces launched a long-planned premeditated attack against a non-belligerent country posing no threat to America.

AMERICA SUFFERING BUYERS REMORSE WITH OBAMA

August 21st, 2009

Allen L Roland

With 41% of Americans strongly disapproving President Obama's performance ( Rasmussen Poll ) it's apparent that Americans are developing a growing case of buyers remorse. The Afghanistan build up, Wall Street Bail Out versus Main Street and Single pay health reform are three issues which leave many Americans feeling betrayed, unlistened to and remorseful about Obama:

Wikipedia defines Buyer's remorse as an emotional condition whereby a person feels remorse or regret after a purchase.

How Israel Wages War in Plain Sight

August 21st, 2009

by Jeff Gates

It’s now well known that Israelis and pro-Israelis “fixed” the intelligence that induced the U.S. invasion of Iraq. What’s not yet widely known is how. If peace-seeking nations hope never again to see deceit operate on such a scale, those deceived must learn this lesson before these same operatives induce a war with Iran.

To “wage war by way of deception” (the motto of the Israeli intelligence service) requires the capacity to operate in plain sight yet without detection. To detect this duplicity in real time requires a grasp of how Israeli strategists rely on three key categories of operatives: agents, assets and sayanim (Hebrew for helpers or volunteers).

Screwing the Self Employed Out of Health Insurance

August 21st, 2009

>The Sleeping Giant of Health Reform

Michael Collins

If you work for yourself, you are literally screwed out of large sums of money every year for health insurance. There are few differences in cost based on region or state regulation. Ultimately, plans in Salt Lake City and Boston cost the same, about $17,000 a year (premiums plus deductibles). Despite the costs, many self employed are grateful to just have insurance since without it a major acute or chronic illness can bankrupt a family and the absence of care can be fatal.
