Impeach Obama! Do It Now!
by Stephen Lendman
It's essential. It's more urgent now than ever. Madness defines his agenda. He promised hope and change.
He delivered permanent wars, domestic ruthlessness and betrayal.
He's ideologically out-of-control. He presides over a homeland police state apparatus.
He's recklessly advancing America's imperium. His quest for global dominance risks the unthinkable. Confronting Russia risks global conflict. It risks potential nuclear war. It risks possible armageddon.
It bears repeating. Madness defines US policy. Obama bears full responsibility. Neocons infest his administration. Stopping him before it's too late matters most.
America's Hidden Hunger Crisis
by Stephen Lendman
Imagine tens of millions hungry in the world's richest country. Imagine bipartisan complicity ignoring a growing crisis.
Imagine uncaring policymakers. Imagine them cutting vital programs able to help when sizable increases are needed.
Imagine serving monied interests at the expense of popular ones. Imagine enriching themselves in the process.
Outnumber Hunger (OH) is a nationwide campaign. It enlists people in the growing fight against hunger. It works cooperatively with Feeding America (FA). More on FA below.
Hunger is a major problem. For nearly 50 million Americans, it's a daily reality. Around 13 million families are affected. Most are hardworking ones.
Israeli Independence Produced Nakba Suffering
by Stephen Lendman
Yom Ha'atzmaut (Independence Day) commemorates Israel's May 1948 Declaration of Independence.
It's celebrated annually on 5th of Iyar. It's according to the Hebrew calendar. It's preceded by Yom Hazikaron. It remembers fallen Israeli soldiers. It's Israel's Memorial Day.
Palestinians have reason to mourn. Edward Said explained Palestine's "holocaust," saying:
"Every human calamity is different, but there is value in seeing analogies and perhaps hidden similarities."
He called Nazi extermination "the lowest point of (Jewish) collective existence."
Palestinians today "are as powerless as Jews were" under Hitler,, he explained. They're devastated by "power used for evil purposes."
Ilan Pappe discussed Palestine's ethnic cleansing. He explained war without mercy.
He did so in exhaustive detail. He obtained previously suppressed documents. He explained what everyone needs to know. More on what he said below.
Fascist Aggression in Ukraine
by Stephen Lendman
It rages. It shows no signs of abating. Obama neocons direct it. Orders come straight from Washington.
US-installed fascist stooges represent Obama's imperial agenda. They're waging war on freedom. They instituted hardline rule. They want it institutionalized.
They target responsible opposition elements. They want them systematically eliminated. They represent police state ruthlessness.
They trash fundamental democratic rights. They're systematically violated them. Fascism operates this way.
It's virulent in America. It operates in Ukraine. It targets core freedoms. They're methodically destroyed. Police state ruthlessness replaced it. War on humanity continues.
Robbing Main Street to Prop Up Wall Street: Why Jerry Brown’s Rainy Day Fund Is a Bad Idea for California
by Ellen Brown
There is no need to sequester funds urgently needed by Main Street to pay for Wall Street’s malfeasance. Californians can have their cake and eat it too – with a state-owned bank.
Governor Jerry Brown is aggressively pushing a California state constitutional amendment requiring budget surpluses to be used to pay down municipal debt and create an emergency “rainy day” fund, in anticipation of the next economic crisis.
On the face of it, it is a sensible idea. As long as Wall Street controls America’s finances and our economy, another catastrophic bust is a good bet.
But a rainy day fund takes money off the table, setting aside funds we need now to reverse the damage done by Wall Street’s last collapse. The brutal cuts of 2008 and 2009 shrank the middle class and gave California the highest poverty rate in the country.
Obama's War on Ukrainian Freedom
by Stephen Lendman
Ukraine is a major global flashpoint. It's the gravest one since WW II. Washington bears full responsibility. Rogue EU partners share it.
Fascist putschist stooges do their bidding. Puppet government was installed. Aggression, repression and cold-blooded murder reflect official policy.
Police states operate this way. Accountability is absent. Coverup and crimes against humanity substitute.
Events so far are the tip of the iceberg. The worst is yet to come. Ukraine's Interior Ministry dispatched additional special forces to Odessa.
Enough Is Enough: Destroy The Obama/Press Lies That Are Leading To World War III
from larouchepac.com
“If this war propaganda succeeds,” stated Lyndon LaRouche on May 4, “World War III could be the result. The U.S. press and the Obama Administration do not have the authority to tell brazen lies about the situation in Ukraine, with impunity. They must be held accountable, and now, or we could be looking at a global catastrophe.”
Right now, however, the Obama Administration, the Western media, and most Western governments are indeed continuing to tell lies. In the face of one of the most brazen Nazi massacres in recent history--the burning alive of anti-Kiev protestors in Odessa on May 3 by neo-Nazis from the Right Sector, soccer hooligans, and others--nary an official or a publication from the West has come out to tell the truth. Horrific available videos are being ignored, and the Russians are being blamed for these crimes.
Proposed Basic Law Declares Israel a Jewish State
by Stephen Lendman
Israel is the only nation without fixed borders. It wants them expanded. It wants territory not its own stolen. It has no constitution. Basic Laws substitute. Netanyahu is a world class thug. He shames the office he holds. He heads the most ruthless regional regime. It's one of the world's worst. It threatens its neighbors. It mocks democratic governance. Days earlier Netanyahu said:
"It is my intention to submit a Basic Law to the Knesset that would provide a constitutional anchor for Israel's status as the national state of the Jewish people."
He called doing so the most "basic ingredient in our national lives…"
Officially establishing it "will win legal status just as other central ingredients that constitute our fundamental core that have already been ruled into the Basic Law of Knesset," he said.
"Unfortunately, as we have seen recently, there are those who do not recognize this natural right and who seek to appeal the historical, legal and moral justification for the existence of the state of Israel as the nation-state of our people."
Ukraine at War
by Stephen Lendman
Ukraine is engulfed in conflict. It may be only a matter of time until it spreads nationwide.
It's Obama's war. It's low-intensity. It threatens to escalate. Mass slaughter may follow.
At risk is spreading it cross-border. It threatens potential East/West confrontation.
On Saturday, Kiev putschist official Vasyl Krutov said:
"What we are facing in the Donetsk region and in the Eastern regions is not just some kind of short-lived uprising. It is in fact war."
Washington bears full responsibility. Obama officials orchestrated Ukraine's legitimate President Viktor Yanukovych's ouster. They did so lawlessly.
They elevated fascist putschists to power. They have no legitimacy whatever. They're convenient US stooges.
