Obama Is Defeated in Ukraine. Status-Quo Truce-Lines Agreed

September 23rd, 2014

Eric Zuesse

Russia's Leader Putin Rejects Ukrainian Separatists' Aim to Become Part of Russia.

But Separatists Will Almost Certainly Receive Reconstruction Aid from Russia.

The great German newspaper German Economic News, headlined on Saturday, September 20th, “Welcome Russia at the G20 summit: End of Isolation” (German original: “Ende der Isolation: Russland bei G20-Gipfel willkommen”), and reported that, "Because the USA needs Russia in its fight against terror-IS, the G20 speculation to isolate Russia in the world community has been shelved. The conflict in the Eastern Ukraine is therefore classified as [being only] regionally [important]." Moreover, "Americans and Russians agreed behind the scenes on a division of the Ukraine. ... The Ukrainian government and the rebels in the east have agreed on the establishment of a buffer zone in the east of the country. ... The resulting 30 km wide buffer zone along the [battle] front will be monitored by observers from the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE)."

This is, essentially, the announcement introducing truce-lines, such as were established at the end of the Korean War and many others.

Palestine; Israel’s Arms Testing Lab

September 22nd, 2014

By Dr. Elias Akleh

The arms trade is the biggest money generating business in the whole world. It is estimated that this business generates a conservative profit of $1.5 trillion a year. Yet like any other manufactured products arms industries need welcoming markets, research and development facilities, testing fields, and marketing campaigns.

The largest weapon traders are the five permanent members of the United Nation Security Council (UNSC); USA, UK, France, Russia and China. Germany is also becoming a large exporter of weapons. Lately, Israel; a very small state compared to the latter six countries, is aggressively growing into a major weapons manufacturer and exporter. Some experts consider Israel as the sixth largest weapon trader, while others consider it the fourth.

Fear-Mongering Ahead of Another US False Flag?

September 22nd, 2014

by Stephen Lendman

Fear-mongering is sinister. It's reprehensible. It's longstanding US policy. So are false flags.

Merriam-Webster calls them "deliberate gross distortion(s) of the truth used especially as a propaganda tactic."

Wikipedia says they're "covert operations designed to deceive the public in such a way that the operations appear as though they are being carried out by other entities."

Official reports hype Big Lies. MSM scoundrels regurgitate them. Truth is systematically buried. Deception substitutes for reality.

Turn Left for Earth

September 22nd, 2014

By David Swanson

I appreciate that there's more happening than just a march for the climate today on the International Day of Peace, and I get the idea that keeping the safe and obedient march-to-nowhere separate from protests actually at the United Nations where our corporate overlords are determining the rate of the earth's demise is intended to please all of the people some of the time, but I can't help wishing that the march would just turn left instead of right when it reaches 42nd Street, in order to march to the United Nations rather than to nowhere.

MSM War on Venezuela

September 22nd, 2014

by Stephen Lendman

MSM scoundrels support monied interests. They deplore popular ones.

They substitute managed news misinformation for truth and full disclosure.

They waged war on Venezuela since Hugo Chavez's December 1998 landslide presidential victory. They're at it again. More on this below.

After Chavez took office, New York Times Latin American correspondent Larry Roher lied. He called him a "populist demagogue, an authoritarian caudillo (strongman).

Who's Left Holding the Bag?

September 21st, 2014

From: Timothy Gatto

Let's all admit it, the wars we have been fighting in the Middle East have been for resources, mostly oil. When something happens in other parts of the World that are devoid of resources, we invariably ignore it. One only has to look at the situation in Darfur, where people were starving en masse, and we turned a blind eye. If the country isn't in a strategic area, or it has no resources we want, we ignore whatever is happening there.

While we have been using our military to protect and seize the resources we need to keep our economy rolling along, China has been reaching out and making trade deals with other nations and sending men, materials and money to help them improve their situations. Of course they have asked for something in return, and that is to buy Chinese products and use Chinese engineers and contractors to help build their infrastructures. China is firmly entrenched in Latin America, Africa and in other regions of the globe.

Hate-Mongering in America

September 21st, 2014

by Stephen Lendman

Systemic injustice is rife. It's longstanding. Constitutional rights don't matter. America's First Amendment clearly states:

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

Privileged Americans alone have rights. America's least advantaged have few or none.

America's racist drug laws disproportionately harm Blacks, Latinos and ethnic minorities. So do longstanding attitudes about people of color.

Palestinians need a holocaust memorial museum of their own

September 21st, 2014

By Khalid Amayreh in Occupied Palestine

It is never a hyperbole to call the latest genocidal onslaught by Israel on the Gaza Strip a holocaust. The level of death and destruction inflicted by the Judeo-Nazi state, aka Israel, is more than shocking, to say the very least. It simply defies linguistic description.

Just imagine how Jewish and Zionist circles would have reacted if the equation was reversed and Israel, not Gaza, had suffered this huge magnitude of death and devastation.

I imagine the shipyard dogs of Zionism, from Sydney to California and from Occupied Palestine to London, would have deafened our ears with a never-abating crescendo of noise about the new Arab holocaust!!!…and claims that the Arabs are trying to complete the mission that the Nazis started.

Firestorm Over Steven Salaita's Sacking

September 21st, 2014

by Stephen Lendman

Criticizing Israel publicly entails huge risks. Becoming persona non grata in politics, the media, business and academia may follow. It's a career ender for most who try.

At most, short-term protests follow. They're usually or entirely local. Salaita's University of Illinois at Urban-Champaign (ULUC) sacking elevated public anger to a new level.

Thousands of scholars, students, colleagues, friends, Israeli critics and others rallied to his defense. They're steadfast. They continue.

They want Salaita reinstated. They want him given full pay and benefits. They want damages paid for all he endured. He deserves it and much more.

Salaita broke weeks of silence. On September 9, he went public for the first time.

He defended his noteworthy academic/scholarly bona fides. He did so eloquently and effectively. He criticized UIUC's academic lynching.

Scotland's Referendum: Fair or Foul?

September 21st, 2014

by Stephen Lendman

Critics claim fraud at the polls. Suspicions are rife. More on this below.

Rigged elections aren't new. In America, they go back to the beginning of the republic.

Seventeenth century US politicians believed vote rigging was a necessary evil. They assumed opposition parties played dirty. Their strategy was fight fire with fire.

New York's Tammany Hall machine was notorious. It controlled Democrat party nominations for over a century.

It bought off politicians, judges and ward captains. Vote suppression was standard practice.

Sorry, but there is no raucous Lynyrd Skynyrd "Play Free Bird" here. Everybody has a favorite, many favorites. The diversity of the songs makes every new and old fan curious to learn more about one aspect or another of the band's expression.
