Tea Bagger Bigotry Exposed
by Len Hart, The Existentialist Cowboy
The GOP has either allied themselves with the bigot-based 'tea bagger' movement or it is the instigator of it. Just when I had come to believe that the GOP could not possibly sink lower, it is now clear to me that this endemically bigoted party is positioned to exceed all previous lies, idiocy and hate talk that has been spewed on that party's behalf by Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Bill O'Reilly and a legion of hate spewing wannabes. Indeed, the GOP --apres Bush --is a deluge, jack-booted army of right wing hate mongers.
Another racist photo [seen at left] showing Obama as a witch doctor is making the rounds with Tea Party activists. We'll bring you the story.
Republicans accuse Speaker Pelosi of inciting racism with her health care comments. We'll talk about it.
Democrats are unhappy with proposed tax in the Baucus health care bill. We'll give you the details.
From the Gulf to the Ocean One Arab Nation
by Ziad Shaker elJishi
I have just returned from a visit to the Arab homeland, during which I was able to see Dubai (UAE) and Sanaa (Yemen) in the Arab Gulf, as well as Tunisia and Algeria in the Arab Maghreb (West). I set out to observe two things: the current political and economic status of the countries I visited and the level of Arab nationalist consciousness present in the four countries on the eastern and western wings of the Arab homeland.
I don't think I would be exaggerating in saying that the commitment of the Arab masses towards the cause of liberation in Palestine was markedly present and more steadfast than ever. It is no exaggeration to say that 2 million Arab fighters ready to march to Palestine could be assembled on very short notice.
BDS: The Winds of Change Blew from the UK and the Blow Back
eileen fleming
Within hours of the courageous landmark decision by Britain’s trade unions that voted overwhelmingly to commit to build a mass BDS movement on Israel as the way to negotiate for justice for Palestinians, Peter Benjamin Mandelson, Britain's current First Secretary of State, Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills, President of the Board of Trade and Lord President of the Council, announced that boycotts are "unhelpful and polarize the debate." [1]
According to Wikipedia, Baron Peter Benjamin Mandelson was one of the very first people in Britain to be labeled a "spin doctor" is referred to as the "Prince of Darkness" and Tam Dalyell, while Father of the House of Commons, claimed Mandelson formed part of Blair's 'Jewish cabal' in May 2003. In response Mandelson stated, "Apart from the fact that I am not actually Jewish, I wear my father's parentage with pride." [2]
A criminal state that must be isolated, boycotted
By Khalid Amayreh
Israel is unusually furious over the publication this week of the Goldstone commission report which accuses the apartheid regime of committing war crimes and crimes against humanity in the Gaza Strip during the bloody blitz against the coastal Palestinian territory nearly nine months ago.
Israeli officials and hasbara doctors have been railing against Goldstone, who is both Jewish and Zionist, to the extent of accusing him of “anti-Semitism,” an increasingly stale and ineffective weapon which Israel resorts to when all other propaganda tools don’t work.
Benyamin Netanyahu, the extremist Prime Minister of the Zionist regime has even asked US Special Envoy to the Middle East George Mitchell to assist Israel , especially at the American arena, in order to curb the fallout from the report.
Of course it's about race!
Mary Shaw
A few days ago, former U.S. President Jimmy Carter noted that racism is likely responsible for much of the anti-Obama sentiment that has monopolized the media in recent weeks.
That seems pretty clear to me, too.
But the right-wing mouthpieces are denying that race has anything to do with it. Racism, you see, is not something most Americans would want to publicly admit to these days.
OBAMA'S TEACHING MOMENT FALLING ON DEAF EARS
Allen L Roland
After Obama's bailout of Wall Street ~ his cry for meaningful reform or new regulations is falling on deaf ears. The so-called Recession has seemingly ended for the financial elite who have a new unlimited credit line from the Fed. Meanwhile Main Street's credit line has dried up, along with their spending, and their nightmare Depression continues unabated. Reform is desperately needed before the next bubble bursts:
We have all witnessed President Obama's cave in to Big Pharma in the Health Care Reform package where the Public option, which over 62% of Americans as well as doctors favor, is now no longer part of the package.
UN General Assembly president “frustrated” in his attempts to end blockade of Gaza
Stuart Littlewood
Farewell, Fr Miguel... and thank you for trying
Outgoing United Nations General Assembly President Miguel d'Escoto Brockman says he was obstructed by leading UN members from trying to improve the lives of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
"My greatest frustration this year has been the Palestine situation," he told the 192-nation assembly in his final address on 14 September before handing over the one-year presidency to Libyan diplomat Ali Treki.
Revolving doors
Khalid Amayreh
Another round of shuttle diplomacy from US Middle East Envoy George Mitchell fails to convince the Israelis to freeze settlement building. In Ramallah, Khaled Amayreh wonders how many doors are left for Mitchell to knock on.
American Envoy to the Middle East George Mitchell has once again failed to convince Israeli leaders to freeze Jewish settlement expansion in the West Bank and East Jerusalem. The freeze is viewed as an essential precondition for the resumption of the stalled peace process between Israel and the Palestinian Authority (PA).
Doctors Aiding Torture
by Stephen Lendman
In April 2009, a confidential February 2007 ICRC torture report was publicly released. Titled, "ICRC Report on the Treatment of Fourteen 'High Value Detainees' in CIA Custody," it detailed harsh and abusive treatment from their time of arrest, detention, transfer, and incarceration at Guantanamo where ICRC professionals interviewed them.
Besides detailed information on torture and abusive treatment, they obtained damning, consistent detainee accounts of medical personnel involvement, including:
-- their monitoring of and direct participation in torture procedures;
Revolutionary new physics could lead to ultimate weapons of mass destruction
Roland Michel Tremblay
As a sci-fi author and science consultant for films and television documentaries, I have made it my mission to seek out every alternate theory out there – no matter how crazy they may seem – to explore any possibility of new physics that might be uncovered and put to use. That is, until I came across something so perfect and convincing that I had to stop in my tracks.
I now realize, to my complete astonishment, that the true Theory of Everything already exists, in a book published soon after the new millennium – you just haven’t heard about it yet. Who is this author, Mark McCutcheon, and what is this book, The Final Theory, that I have read? My God! This is not the usual crackpot theory used as fodder for some lame sci-fi TV series; this is it – the first truly viable new physics to have ever arisen.
