Western Supported Israeli State Terror
by Stephen Lendman
Western support for Israeli high crimes is longstanding. Vicious persecution of an entire population evokes no opposition, except for duplicitous lip service.
Israel is a ruthless police state - a regime run by hate-mongering thugs, exercising total control over all aspects of Palestinian life, brutalizing an entire population, depriving it of fundamental human and civil rights.
Last month, the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said Israeli security forces raided Palestinian homes on average 79 times weekly (nearly a dozen times a day) - terrorizing families, traumatizing children, making arrests without just cause - for fabricated security reasons.
California School District Serves Organic Meals
by Stephen Lendman
The scientific and world community know GMOs harm human health. So why does Washington and other governments permit their use - and in America, ban labeling, suppressing vital consumer information?
Ecowatch asked: “What if we could feed our students the nutritious, delicious and sustainably sourced food they truly deserve?”
Sausalito, California Marin City School District is the nation’s first one offering “100 percent organic and non-GMO” foods to children. Why aren’t all US school districts doing the same thing? Why aren’t only foods and ingredients safe to eat allowed to be sold in America? The Conscious Kitchen says it’s dedicated to a systematic transformation of school dining, to the health and well being of our children, and to a thriving future for our planet.”
Abbas Building Lavish West Bank Presidential Palace
by Stephen Lendman
Palestinians under PA governance are ill-served, abused, lied to and exploited. Abbas is an illegitimate president - installed by Israel in a 2005 rigged election. His term expired in January 2009. He refuses to step down.
He’s a longtime Israeli collaborator - enforcing its harshness against his own people. Betrayal pays well. Reportedly he amassed a fortune worth hundreds of millions of dollars - profiting from secret land deals, other investments and grand theft. US and EU funds were stolen. Operations are opaque. Irregularities are rampant - transparency nonexistent.
The Doctrine of 'Superior People': The Bond between Israel and World Zionism
James Petras
Introduction
The single greatest feat of Israel and its overseas missions has not been material success, or the military conquest of millions of unarmed Palestinians, it has been ideological – the widespread acceptance in the US of a doctrine that claims ‘Jews are a superior people’.
Apart from small extremist rightwing sects who exhibit visceral anti-Semitism and denigrate everything Jewish, there are very few academics and politicians willing to question this supremacist doctrine. On the contrary, there is an incurable tendency to advance oneself by accepting and embellishing on it. For example, in August 2015, US Vice-President Joseph Biden attributed ‘special genius’ to Jews, slavish flattery that embarrassed even New York’s liberal Jewish intellectuals.
Quantitative Easing for People: The UK Labour Frontrunner’s Controversial Proposal
by Ellen Brown
British MP Jeremy Corbyn has proposed a “People’s QE” that has critics crying hyperinflation and supporters saying it’s about time.
Dark horse candidate Jeremy Corbyn, who is currently leading in the polls for UK Labour Party leadership, has included in his platform “quantitative easing for people.” He said in a July 22nd presentation:
The ‘rebalancing’ I have talked about here today means rebalancing away from finance towards the high-growth, sustainable sectors of the future. How do we do this? One option would be for the Bank of England to be given a new mandate to upgrade our economy to invest in new large scale housing, energy, transport and digital projects: Quantitative easing for people instead of banks.
Vladimir Putin Straight Talk
by Stephen Lendman
A previous article explained Putin says what he means and means what he says. His forthright style follows through responsibly - in contrast to Obama, a serial liar with no credibility whatever.
Putin addressed reporters at Russia’s first Eastern Economic Forum - held from September 3 - 5 in Vladivostok, attended by about 1,500 business officials and other participants from Russia and Asia-Pacific nations.
Putin called the most serious refugee crisis since WW II “absolutely expected. We in Russia, and me personally a few years ago, said it straight that pervasive problems would emerge, if our so-called Western partners (America most of all) continue maintaining their flawed…foreign policy, especially in the regions of the Muslim world, Middle East, North Africa, which they pursue to date.”
Is the New U.S. 'Law of War Manual' Actually ‘Hitlerian'?
Eric Zuesse
The Obama U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) has quietly issued its important Law of War Manual, and, unlike its predecessor, the 1956 U.S. Army Field Manual, which was not designed to approve of the worst practices by both the United States and its enemies in World War II, or after 9/11, this new document has been alleged specifically to do just that: to allow such attacks as the United States did on Dresden, Hiroshima, and Nagasaki, and in Iraq, and elsewhere.
First here will be a summary of previous news reports about this historically important document; then, extensive quotations from the actual document itself will be provided, relating to the allegations in those previous news reports. Finally will be conclusions regarding whether, or the extent to which, those earlier news reports about it were true.
False Reports of Russian Military Intervention in Syria
by Stephen Lendman
After numerous US-led Western reports of nonexistent “Russian aggression” in Ukraine, how could anyone believe its military intervened in Syria - especially when Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov (speaking for Putin) categorically denied it, and no verifiable evidence refutes him.
Believe nothing Western media claim, Peskov stressed. “(T)his issue has never been discussed in any way” - nor has Assad asked for direct Russian involvement. Commenting on an earlier statement by Russian airborne troops commander Vladimir Shamanov, Peskov added: There ought to be no doubts that Russian airborne troops will fulfill any order from their-commander-in chief” Vladimir Putin.
Low-Wage America
by Stephen Lendman
US workers have little to celebrate this Labor Day weekend or any other one. America is being systematically thirdworldized - represented by weak unions complicit with management or none at all, unable to bargain effectively for higher wages.
Economic recovery is an illusion. A protracted Main Street Depression persists. Poverty is a growth industry. Around 23% of Americans wanting work can’t find it.
Most available jobs are rotten ones - temp or part-time low pay/poor or no benefit service ones with no futures. Conditions are getting worse, not better. Millions of good jobs were offshored to low-wage countries. Millions more may follow. Many displaced workers remain unemployed longterm. Others finding work take huge wage cuts.
Will Stepan Bandera III Allow Kiev to Destroy the Bandera Legacy?

In a bizarre twist of fate, this article maybe the only warning Stepan Bandera III receives that he really needs to get a running head-start. (Image: Wikipedia)
Part of the Ukrainian Diaspora is trying to cast the crowning achievement of his grandfather “the real Stepan Bandera” to the ash-heap of history. This move is geared to crush the hope for freedom of generations of Bandera supporters.
In an effort to co-opt Ukrainian Nationalism out from under the Bandera brand, emigre nationalist leaders are already starting to refer to Stepan Bandera as a “disgruntled Pollack with a bad sense of direction!” Questions asking if the original Stepan Bandera even visited Ukraine are now being voiced. Most importantly, Stepan Bandera’s honor and commitment are being challenged by Ukrainian Diaspora leaders.
For Stepan Bandera III, Public Law 86-90 represents the pinnacle of his family history. Shown below, just like North Vietnam, Ukraine did not exist without it. The country called Ukraine only came into being in 1991.
