Camillo "Mac" Bica, Truthout: "The citizen soldier, driven by civic obligation, patriotism and love of country, has been replaced by homo economicus - a professional military of individuals motivated primarily by need and the realization that, in order to provide for themselves and their families or go to college, few if any alternatives are available to them other than military service... To point out how the government exploits economic inequities to increase enlistment is not to belittle the personal sacrifices of those who serve out of love of country. Rather, it is to call attention to the prevalence of unequal sacrifice, an injustice that must be remedied. In light of such coercive economic conditions, perhaps the term 'all volunteer force' is a misnomer, as enlistees can hardly be said to have chosen military service voluntarily."

Zaid Jilani, ThinkProgress: "Last month, the world was shocked as the Tunisian autocrat Zine el-Abidine Ben Ali, who had ruled his country for 23 years, was overthrown in a protest movement that lasted only 29 days. The event was soon dubbed the 'Jasmine Revolution,' a symbolic reference to a blooming flower... It was only days later that massive protests rocked Cairo, resulting in the resignation of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, who had been in power for more than 30 years. While the fate of both countries is still unresolved, one thing is clear: the people are demanding democracy, and they have forced massive changes in their government to get it. Now, many are wondering if this pro-democracy movement that swept Tunisia and Egypt will spread throughout the rest of the Arab world. ThinkProgress has assembled a short list of other autocratic regimes in the region that are facing protests, particularly today, and which may soon be the next to go in the Middle East?s next 'Jasmine Revolution.'"

Marisa Taylor, McClatchy Newspapers: "The Obama administration's Justice Department has asserted that the FBI can obtain telephone records of international calls made from the U.S. without any formal legal process or court oversight, according to a document obtained by McClatchy. That assertion was revealed ? perhaps inadvertently ? by the department in its response to a McClatchy request for a copy of a secret Justice Department memo. Critics say the legal position is flawed and creates a potential loophole that could lead to a repeat of FBI abuses that were supposed to have been stopped in 2006."

Vision: Across the Country, People are Rising Up to Fight for Change

Rose Aguilar, AlterNet: "Over the years, Milwaukee Labor Press editor Dominique Paul North has covered a 'heck of a lot of protests' in Wisconsin. Last summer, a peace rally in Wisconsin?s inner city drew about 100 people calling for the U.S. to get out of Afghanistan. 'There was no media coverage,' he says. 'I was the only reporter there.' The next day, 40 people attended a tea party event in Wisconsin and every local media outlet was there to cover it? So while it was disappointing, it came as no surprise when most Wisconsin and national media outlets ignored the state?s first anti-inaugural rally on January 3. Here?s a summary of a few of the other actions you may have missed last month."

Ägypten und Tunesien: Die ersten Klima-Revolutionen

?Brot und Freiheit? stand auf vielen Plakaten der Aufständischen in Kairo und Tunis. Der Hunger von Millionen und die steigenden Lebensmittelpreise gehörten zweifellos zu den Auslösern der beiden Revolutionen. Eine der Hauptursachen des Hungers ist der Klimawandel und die ihm vorausgehenden Wetterextreme, welche die Klimaforscher seit Jahren vorhersagen.

An attempt to fast-track the renewal of the most controversial portions of the Patriot Act failed in the House yesterday. The measure failed to get the procedurally necessary two-third majority. The same measure would easily pass on a simple majority vote. In the People's House, there is a sizable bipartisan majority of Democrats and Republicans who are united in opposition to core constitutional principles such as the protection against unreasonable search and seizure, and the civil rights of American citizens...

Nick Mottern, Truthout: "On January 12, 2011, the investment world thrilled to the announcement that ITT Corporation, one of the top ten US military contractors, will disengage from its 'defense' business as part of a planned split into three new companies. The move points to ITT as a possible canary in the coal mine for military contractors, and a signal to those of us who want to stop our current wars that the time is right to mount a divestment campaign on the war industry."

Robert Naiman, Truthout: "Four key demands have been constantly lifted up by protesters and opposition parties, which are essential for a credible transition to democracy: ending the arbitrary detention and harassment of journalists, human rights activists and peaceful demonstrators and freeing those who have been detained; ending the state of emergency; allowing free electoral competition in elections; and restoring full judicial supervision of elections.... Without these reforms, any 'orderly transition' in Egypt is likely to be a transition not to democracy, but a transition to dictatorship under a different face."

John Pilger, Truthout: "The uprising in Egypt is our theater of the possible. It is what people across the world have struggled for and their thought controllers have feared. Western commentators invariably misuse the words 'we' and 'us' to speak on behalf of those with power who see the rest of humanity as useful or expendable. The 'we' and 'us' are universal now. Tunisia came first, but the spectacle always promised to be Egyptian."

Mubarak?s Norma Desmond moment

We are at what the smart alecks of the world call a plastic moment, a strategic conjuncture, a critical turning point. Because no one?s in charge. The Egyptian people could rise up, as one, tomorrow, in their multi-millions, and crush Mubarak and Mubarakism into dust, if they chose. This is the great fear that all rulers, no matter how popular at the moment, have nightmares about, a terror that pervades and motivates their every action while in office: a sudden and massive uprising...

Americans have become accustomed to presidents and secretaries of state pontificating on the condition of the world and advising other governments and peoples what they should be doing. But one rather suspects that George Washington, John Adams, or Thomas Jefferson would be shocked to see our Federal government passing judgment on the doings of foreigners and doing so in a hectoring and imperious fashion that seems to suggest that Washington enjoys some exceptional quality that permits it to hand out advice...

What Obama didn?t say in his sermon to the Chamber of Commerce
Freedom's Phoenix

by Craig Cantoni

02/09/11

In his recent sermon to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Barack Obama came across as the most pedestrian, pedantic, preachy, and professorial president since Woodrow Wilson left Princeton to go into politics and eventually the White House. His ivory-tower comments accomplished the Herculean task of making George W. Bush look smart by comparison and have sullied the reputations of his alma maters of Columbia and Harvard. He was an embarrassment to himself, to his supporters, and to all graduates of Columbia and Harvard. It was even more embarrassing when you consider what he didn?t say...

QE2 Sets Off Inflation Alarms

By Mike Whitney

The stimulus that's pushing liquidity into the markets, is not being transmitted to the real economy. It's stuck in financial La-la land where it can't do any good. The problem is not that Bernanke is dropping money out of helicopters. The problem is that his helicopter never stops circling Wall Street.

10. Februar 2011

Die stellvertretende Vorsitzende der LINKEN, Katja Kipping, wirft Union und FDP nach den gescheiterten Hartz-IV-Gesprächen einen ?Putsch gegen die Verfassung? vor. Kipping äußert die Hoffnung auf ein baldiges Eingreifen des Bundesverfassungsgerichts, um eine deutliche Regelsatzanhebung zu erreichen. Sie erklärt:

Union und FDP haben jede Bewegung beim Regelsatz blockiert. Das war ein Putsch gegen die Verfassung. SPD und Grüne waren nicht in der Lage, echten Druck aufzubauen. Herausgekommen ist eine Nullnummer. Bei Hartz IV werden praktisch längst durch die Hintertür die Leistungen gekürzt, obwohl die Schmerzgrenze längst überschritten ist. Das provoziert Unmut und auf Dauer soziale Unruhen. So kann man weder mit den Millionen Betroffenen noch mit dem höchsten deutschen Gericht umgehen. Spätestens dann wenn das Verfassungsgericht angerufen wird, wird es per Anordnung nachholen müssen, was die Politik verweigert hat. Das Gericht urteilt nicht nach Kassenlage sondern nach Rechtslage. Maßgeblich ist die Verfassung, und die sagt, dass die Würde des Menschen unantastbar ist.

The compromise version of the Patriot Act to which House and Senate conferees agreed last week and for which the House voted yesterday is an unforgivable assault on basic American values and core constitutional liberties. Unless amended in response to the courageous efforts of a few dozen senators from both parties, the new Patriot Act will continue to give federal agents the power to write their own search warrants -- the statute?s newspeak terminology calls them 'national security letters' -- and serve them on a host of persons and entities that regularly gather and store sensitive, private information on virtually every American...

Pakistan defence photos found in US official's camera

American's fake IDs, spy gadgets stoke Pakistani anger

The mystery about what Davis was doing with these gadgets has touched directly on Pakistani resentment of the large U.S. security presence. Such U.S. employees roam the country freely and are not answerable to the Pakistani authorities.
