Gitmo Atrocities Continue
by Stephen Lendman
America's by far the world's leading human rights abuser. It commits horrific crimes globally. No other nation matches its record. It's longstanding. It's unconscionable. It's lawless.
It violates fundamental international, constitutional, and US statute laws. It does so with impunity. It's official US policy.
Obama Killed Chavez
by Stephen Lendman
Most likely he was either poisoned or infected with cancer causing substances. Four cancer surgeries in 18 months raise suspicions.
Chavez knew he was marked for death. He said so numerous times. Oil Minister Rafael Ramirez believes Washington and Israel conspired to kill him.
He called it similar to how Israel murdered Yasser Arafat. Radioactive polonium poisoning killed him. Forensic evidence proved it.
On March 12, acting President Nicolas Marudo said a state commission will investigate his death. "(I)mportant scientists from different countries" will be involved.
Maduro believes forensic evidence will show Chavez was "injected by imperialist forces."
He "was poisoned by dark forces in order to hit at the Venezuelan people and Latin America," he stressed.
McDonaldization: News Media, Hollywood, Television & Internet 'Alternative' News
by Tracy Turner
America's So-Called Liberal Alternative Media - Some Are MSM Mini-Me's
Anyone who started using the Internet in the era of Windows 3.1 or Mac System 7.1.2 (or using Unix) knows that the Mainstream Media Oligarchs Duopolists crooks are indoctrinating (McDonaldizing) the Internet; or in the words of disney.com, making the Internet the post-journalism "happiest place on Earth"... If there were truth in advertising, make-believe Disney would actually be the concoctedly happiest place on Earth. In the past 8-9 months, websearches on Google, Bing, Yahoo and AolSearch are returning increasingly Censored Results...
The five forged news and fictitious media giants with their 'progressive' Scott Pelley's, 'avante garde' Rachel Maddow's, 'radical' Anderson Cooper's, 'high-minded' Barbara Walters, etc. have yet to ask the simple question, how did the police find Christopher James Dorner's ** fireproof ** wallet, * thrice *?
Wrongheaded NYT Views When They're Right
by Stephen Lendman
On March 9, a Times editorial headlined "Repeal the Military Force Law." Reasons given omitted what's most important. More on that below.
On September 14, 2001, Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF) was introduced. It never should have been done in the first place.
Penny Pritzker: Obama's Likely Commerce Secretary Choice
by Stephen Lendman
She's one of America's most powerful women. For sure she's one of the richest. Forbes estimates she's worth $1.85 billion.
She's also heir to the Hyatt Hotels and Pritzker family fortune. It's net worth exceeds $20 billion. Some think it's much more.
No one knows for sure. It's stashed in tax havens. Only little people pay what they owe. Billionaires use money to make more of it. They steal plenty along the way.
Balzac said behind every great fortune lies a great crime. Tax Justice Network estimates up to $32 trillion in hidden and stolen wealth stashed in tax havens. Maybe it's much more. No one knows for sure.
America's Retirement Crisis
by Stephen Lendman
Decades of class war leaves most Americans nearing retirement woefully unprepared.
Since the mid-1970s, real wages haven't kept pace with inflation. Benefits steadily eroded. High-paying jobs disappeared. Improved technology forces wage earners to work harder for less.
Obama Wants Lynne Stewart Dead
by Stephen Lendman
Lynne's 73. She's gravely ill.
Obama killed Chavez. He wants Lynne dead. Unjustifiable longterm imprisonment assures it.
She's a breast cancer survivor. It reemerged. It's spreading.
She's dying. Vital life-saving treatment is delayed or denied. Expert private care can save her. She needs it now.
This alert supplements a circulating petition. It repeats information in it.
It's urgent!
Sign it!
Circulate it!
Tell others!
Tell them to do the same!
Save Lynne!
Thomas Perez: Obama's Labor Secretary Choice
by Stephen Lendman
Throughout his tenure, Obama waged war on labor. Perez won't change things. He'll replace Hilda Solis. She resigned in January. She accomplished little in four years.
She's the daughter of immigrant union members. She failed to deliver as promised. She pledged to make a difference and didn't. Expect little change from Perez. More on him below.
Mid-April Venezuelan Presidential Elections Scheduled
by Stephen Lendman
Venezuela's National Electoral Council (CNE) President Tibisay Lucena announced Sunday, April 14. Acting President Nicolas Maduro carries Chavez's torch.
He'll do it responsibly. Millions of Venezuelans depend on him. He won't them down. It won't be easy. He faces enormous obstacles. So did Chavez.
Turkey Targets Press Freedom
by Stephen Lendman
No country imprisons more journalists than Turkey. Ragip Zarakolu understands well. He's a prominent human rights activist/publisher. He's a former Nobel Peace Prize nominee. He's been maliciously targeted for years.
In 1998, he won the International Publishers Association (IPA) International Freedom to Publish Award. He couldn't attend the Frankfurt ceremony. Authorities confiscated his passport.
