Future of Freedom Foundation Future of Freedom Foundation
by Sheldon Richman

02/21/11

We should take a small measure of satisfaction in former President George W. Bush?s cancellation of his trip to Switzerland after human-rights groups threatened to bring legal action against him for authorizing torture. Persons detained by the U.S. government after 9/11 were subjected to what the Bush administration euphemistically called 'enhanced interrogation,' including waterboarding. In reality those methods constituted torture, violating U.S. law and international agreements...

Sneak Peek At The Last War Crime, The New Feature Film About Indicting Cheney For Torture: The Water Boarding Scene

Please note: Our hosting service provider had an outage Tuesday morning but is back up now, so we are resending this very important alert.

If you have been following our alerts you know we have been hard at work for the last couple months producing a new full length feature film called "The Last War Crime", on indicting Cheney for torture. We are very excited to announce we have completed what they call principal photography, and hope to have the finished film edited soon. In the meantime, we have now posted a clip of the pivotal water boarding scene on this page.

Last War Crime Sneak Peek Video: http://www.peaceteam.net/bumper_stickers_lwc.php

In this key scene we make the dramatic case that 1) water boarding is torture (in part by putting the audience in the point of view of the person being water boarded), and that 2) the purpose of water boarding was to obtain the false confessions to justify an invasion of Iraq, both of which are clear facts.

And from the same page above you can request one of the new bumper stickers we have created to spread the word about this upcoming film debut. We'll send you one for no charge, not even shipping, and all you have to do is ask. But of course if you can make a donation of any amount there are at least two good reasons for doing so.

First, we still have substantial additional expenses to incur in post production to get this new movie in real theaters where it deserves to be. We have provided income for many valiant progressive activists along the way and want to keep doing so. Second, if you can make a donation it makes it possible for us to send free bumper stickers to anyone who cannot make a donation right now.

Ever since Cheney confessed on national television that he was a "big supporter" of water boarding (a scene we also recreate in the film) there could be no doubt that the affirmative decision to engage in torture went to the highest levels of our government, and it strongly suggests that Cheney himself was the driving force in making it happen. The secret legal opinions that purported to justify these war crimes were drafted by David Addington, Cheney's own legal counsel, events we again recreate in the film.

We believe "The Last War Crime" movie is destined to have a real impact, in the first instance by generating a real discussion on the soul of our nation. We have simply spectacular performances from upward of a hundred amazing cast members, a very high level of technical polish in the raw footage, and we are just an edit away from a truly extraordinary cultural event. And if life can imitate art, this powerful narrative film may even result in those who committed these crimes being brought to real justice.

So please request your "The Last War Crime" bumper sticker now from the sneak peek link above, and we'll see you in the theaters!

Please take action NOW, so we can win all victories that are supposed to be ours, and forward this alert as widely as possible.

Tunisia. Egypt. Libya. Jordan. Yemen. Revolutions everywhere. Now it?s China with a 'Jasmine Revolution.' The ChiCom government is so upset at their subjects? longing for freedom that it?s censoring anything on the Internet with the word 'jasmine' in it.

Öffentliche Haushalte in den USA: "Ground Zero" für Gewerkschaften

Mit Gehaltskürzungen und der Abschaffung von Tarifverhandlungen will der neue Tea-Party-Gouverneur von Wisconsin seinen Haushalt sanieren. Das gibt Ärger. Artikel von Dorothea Hahn in der TAZ vom 18.02.2011 http://www.taz.de/1/politik/amerika/artikel/1/ground-zero-fuer-gewerkschaften/

Aus dem Text: ?(?) Das Gesetz, das Walker vorgelegt hat, sieht vor, dass die Beschäftigten des öffentlichen Dienstes künftig größere Teile ihrer Kranken- und Rentenversicherung selbst bezahlen. Das Ergebnis sind Einkommenssenkungen von bis zu 9 Prozent. LehrerInnen mit einem Jahreseinkommen von 50.000 Dollar können dabei mehr als 4.000 Dollar einbüßen. Gleichzeitig soll das Gesetz die Gewerkschaften schwächen: Es reduziert die Möglichkeit von kollektiven Lohnverhandlungen und Tarifverträgen gen null, und es schafft den Abzug der gewerkschaftlichen Mitgliedsbeiträge vom Lohn ab. Die einzig mögliche Alternative zu seinem Gesetz, sagt Walker, sei die Entlassung von mehr als 12.000 Beschäftigten sowie die Streichung der staatlichen Gesundheitsversorgung für Kinder??

Siehe dazu:

?Dies ist das Capitol in Madison. Täglich kommen größere Demonstrationen zu dem Gebäude, in dem die beiden gesetzgebenden Kammern, das oberste Gerichtes und der Gouverneur vom Bundesstaat Wisconsin ihren Sitz haben. Am Montag waren es 2.000 Menschen; am Dienstag schon 5.000; am Mittwoch 15.000; und heute ? am Donnerstag ? zwischen 25- und 30.000??

Thank You, Scott Walker

Jack Norman, Truthout: "Thank you, Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker, for waking a sleeping giant. Thank you for the awesomely uplifted spirits of Wisconsinites from Superior to Kenosha and Eagle River to Platteville, who trekked to the state capital to defy your union-busting grab. Thank you for the caravans from North Carolina and New Jersey and Utah who came to a small city in the Snowbelt to join the cause. They know this is not Wisconsin's fight alone. They know that in fifty states, we all are targets of a nasty national conspiracy to destroy unions and the middle-class society unions have built."

Die EU-Kommission will künftig Futtermittel ohne rechtliche Grundlage zulassen, die mit gentechnisch verändertem Material verunreinigt sind. DIE LINKE fordert von Bundesverbraucherschutzministerin Ilse Aigner ein entschiedenes NEIN am 22. Februar in Brüssel zu diesem Vorhaben. Hierzu erklärt Sabine Wils, Mitglied des Parteivorstandes der Partei DIE LINKE:

Nach dem Futtermittel-Dioxin-Skandal zu Beginn des Jahres waren die Versprechen von Frau Aigner groß, mehr für Futtermittelsicherheit und damit für Lebensmittelsicherheit zu tun. Nun will die EU-Kommission auf Intervention der Futtermittelindustrie erlauben, dass in der EU nicht zugelassene gentechnisch veränderte Organismen in Futtermittel untergemischt werden dürfen. Dies ist ein skandalöser Vorgang. Genmanipulierte Pflanzen oder Produkte tierischer Herkunft, die nicht hinsichtlich ihrer Sicherheit bewertet sind, kämen so auf Umwegen auf unsere Speiseteller, sollte morgen in Brüssel grünes Licht gegeben werden. Hier wird die Hintertür für eine einfachere Zulassung sowie den unkontrollierten Import von genmanipuliertem Saatgut, Futtermitteln und letztlich Lebensmitteln geöffnet. DIE LINKE lehnt dies entschieden ab und verlangt von Frau Aigner, sich gegen das Vorhaben der EU-Kommission zu wenden. Die Nulltoleranz für in der EU nicht zugelassene Gentech-Pflanzen in Futtermitteln darf nicht aufgeweicht werden. Gegen die Pläne der EU-Kommission gibt es eine Online-Unterschriftensammlung an Ilse Aigner: http://www.campact.de/gentec/sn8/signer

21. Februar 2011

Zur Einigung der Hartz-IV-Parteien im Streit um höhere Regelsätze erklären die Vorsitzenden der Partei DIE LINKE, Gesine Lötzsch, Klaus Ernst und der Vorsitzende der Bundestagsfraktion Gregor Gysi:

Das Arbeitslosengeld II für derzeit etwa 4,7 Millionen Hartz-IV-Beziehende steigt rückwirkend um fünf auf 364 Euro im Monat. Selbst die für 2012 avisierten drei Euro mehr, sind lediglich ein Inflationsausgleich und keine Erhöhung. Dieses Ergebnis ist ein Hohn. Alle Hartz-IV-Parteien haben sich mit den statistischen Fälschungen der Arbeitsministerin abgefunden und die Vorgaben des Urteils des Bundesverfassungsgerichts ignoriert. Die willkürliche Veränderung der Berechnungsgrundlagen, um den Sparvorgaben des Finanzministers gerecht zu werden, ist verfassungswidrig. Es ist ein Skandal, dass die Hartz-IV-Parteien acht Wochen verhandeln mussten, um eine Erhöhung des Regelsatzes um insgesamt 8 Euro zu erreichen. Die gleichen Parteien haben nur eine Woche gebraucht, um mit 480 Mrd. Euro die Banken zu retten. DIE LINKE fordert einen monatlichen Regelsatz von 500 Euro. Dieser Regelsatz ist finanzierbar, wenn wir in dieser Gesellschaft endlich auch wieder die Menschen zur Kasse bitten, die die Krise verursacht und an ihr verdient haben. Das Bildungspaket ist nur ein Bildungspäckchen. Es löst nicht die gravierenden Bildungsfinanzierungsprobleme in unserem Land. Es trägt nur dazu bei, die Kinder von Arbeitslosen zu stigmatisieren und zu demütigen. Besonders perfide ist es, Kürzungen bei der Berechnung des Regelsatzes für Kinder mit dem Bildungspaket zu begründen. Der anvisierte Mindestlohn in der Zeitarbeit, im Bewachungsgewerbe und der Weiterbildung ist völlig unzureichend. Wir brauchen einen flächendeckenden gesetzlichen Mindestlohn, wie es ihn in den meisten Ländern der Europäischen Union gibt, und Equal pay in der Zeitarbeit vom ersten Tage an. Die Übernahme der Kosten der Grundsicherung im Alter durch den Bund ist real eine Übernahme durch die Bundesagentur für Arbeit. Die Arbeitnehmerinnen und Arbeitnehmer werden mit ihren Versicherungsbeiträgen zur Arbeitslosenversicherung zusätzlich zur Kasse gebeten. Von der Koalition war nichts anderes zu erwarten. Dass die SPD diesen oberfaulen Kompromiss zu Lasten der Arbeitnehmerinnen und Arbeitnehmer, Arbeitslosen und Kinder mitträgt, liegt in ihrer Hartz IV-Logik, von der sie bis heute nicht Abstand genommen hat. DIE LINKE wird die Hartz-IV-Regelung im Bundestag ablehnen und alle juristischen Möglichkeiten nutzen, um dem im Grundgesetz verankerten Grundrecht auf ein menschenwürdiges Existenzminimum Geltung zu verschaffen.

C4SS Center for a Stateless Society
by Kevin Carson

02/17/11

[T]he tendency to generate a surplus for which there are insufficient investment outlets is, in the main, a result of the state capitalist economic model. Government enforcement of artificial scarcity and artificial property rights generates rents, and thereby shifts income from workers and consumers to the owners of such artificial property rights. That means a shift of income from the classes with a higher propensity to consume to classes with a higher propensity to invest, and a resulting chronic tendency toward underconsumption and overaccumulation...

Thawing Permafrost: The speed of coastal erosion in Eastern Siberia has nearly doubled

The high cliffs of Eastern Siberia, which mainly consist of permafrost, continue to erode at an ever quickening pace. This is the conclusion which scientists of the Alfred Wegener Institute, Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research have reached after their evaluation of data and aerial photographs of the coastal regions for the last 40 years. According to the researchers, the reasons for this increasing erosion are rising summer temperatures in the Russian permafrost regions as well the retreat of the Arctic sea ice. This coastal protection recedes more and more on an annual basis. As a result, waves undermine the shores. At the same time, the land surface begins to sink. The small island of Muostakh east of the Lena Delta is especially affected by these changes. Experts fear that it might even disappear altogether should the loss of land continue.

Dean Baker, Truthout: "Alan Greenspan has been strangely missing from the fierce battle over the future of public sector unions in Wisconsin and other states. His absence is strange because he bears more responsibility for the current conflict than anyone else alive. The reason is simple. Mr. Greenspan's incredible incompetence in allowing the $8 trillion housing bubble to grow unchecked created the fiscal crisis that is gripping Wisconsin and most other states... How does it change anything if we know that Greenspan (last seen being feted at the Brookings Institution) is the real villain in the Wisconsin budget crisis? First, it should turn the heat where it belongs: Washington."

There?s got to be a better way

Foundation for Economic Education Foundation for Economic Education

What?s so remarkable about events in the Middle East is that a significant number of people who had felt powerless looked around at what they?d seen every day of their lives and thought for the first time: 'It doesn?t have to be like this.' When will Americans do that?

Nationalism, democracy, and the Arab awakening

The revolutionary wave sweeping through the Middle East promises to topple sclerotic Arab regimes throughout the region, but there is a marked difference between, say, Egypt and Iran -- and the difference is the nationalist factor...

Sarah Van Gelder, YES! Magazine: 'The uprising that swept Tunisia, Egypt, and parts of Europe is showing signs of blossoming across the United States. In Wisconsin, public employees and their supporters are drawing the line at Governor Scott Walker's plan to eliminate collective bargaining and unilaterally cut benefits. School teachers, university students, firefighters, and others descended on the capital in the tens of thousands, and even the Superbowl champion Green Bay Packers have weighed in against the bill. Protests against similar anti-union measures are ramping up in Ohio. Meanwhile, another protest movement aimed at protecting the poor and middle class is in the works. Cities around the country are preparing for a February 26 Day of Action, 'targeting corporate tax dodgers.'"

Across the US, GOP Lawmakers Build States of Denial

Michael Winship, Truthout: 'In Missouri, state senator Jane Cunningham (R-Chesterfield) has introduced a bill that would, in the words of progressive website ThinkProgress, 'dramatically claw back' state child labor restrictions, including the prohibition on employment of children under the age of 14 and regulations on the number of hours a child may work during the day. South Dakota was contemplating - but just tabled, thank goodness - a bill that critics feared would expand the definition of justifiable homicide to include the murder of doctors who provide abortions. Idaho is debating a bill to nullify Obama's health care reform, and in Arizona, legislators are sponsoring one that would allow the state to nullify any federal law it doesn't particularly care for. I would ask what's gotten into them, but I think we all know.'

George Lakoff, Truthout: "Conservatives really want to change the basis of American life, to make America run according to the conservative moral worldview in all areas of life... What is saddest of all is to see Democrats helping them. Democrats help radical conservatives by accepting the deficit frame and arguing about what to cut... Democrats help conservatives by not shouting out loud over and over that it was conservative values that caused the global economic collapse: lack of regulation and a greed-is-good ethic.... Democrats help 'conservatives when they use conservative words like 'entitlements' instead of 'earnings' and speak of government as providing 'services' instead of 'necessities'... Is there hope? I see it in Wisconsin, where tens of thousands citizens see through the conservative frames and are willing to flood the streets of their capital to stand up for their rights."

Scott Walker Runs on Koch Money

Lisa Graves, PR Watch: 'A new investigation by the Center for Media and Democracy documents the big money funneled by one of the richest men in America and one of the richest corporations in the world to put controversial Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker in office. Walker was elected just over three months ago on the heels of an exceptionally expensive gubernatorial race in the Badger State, fueled by groups funded by the Koch brothers, David and Charles. David Koch, the son of a radical founding member of the John Birch Society, which has long been obsessed with claims about socialism and advocated the repeal of civil rights laws, personally donated $1 million to the Republican Governors Association (RGA) in June of last year. The RGA in turn spent $5 million in the race, mostly on TV ads attacking Walker's political opponent, Democratic Mayor Tom Barrett."

'Bread and Freedom' said the insurgents? many posters in Cairo and Tunis. The hunger of millions of people and rising food prices were undoubtedly among the triggers of both revolutions. One of the main causes of hunger is climate change and the weather extremes that precede it, a fact which climatologists have been predicting for years.

So heißt es in der Forderung: 'Der Deutsche Bundestag möge beschließen, den Nahrungsmittelanteil in der Grundsicherung für erwerbsfähige Hilfebedürftige von 132,83 Euro monatlich (tgl. 4,43 Euro) auf mindestens 240,00 Euro (8,00 tgl.) zu erhöhen.'

Zwölf Prozent mehr Sanktionen bei Hartz IV

Laut einer kleinen Anfrage der Linken im Deutschen Bundestag an die Bundesregierung, haben die Arbeitsagenturen im letzten Jahr 2010 in genau 610.599 Fällen Leistungskürzungen gegen Arbeitslosengeld II Bezieher ausgesprochen. Das ist ein Anstieg von satten zwölf Prozent, im Vergleich zum Vorjahr 2009. Betroffen von den Sanktionen waren etwa 3 Prozent aller Anspruchsberechtigen im SGB II. Im Vorjahr waren noch im Schnitt 2,6 Prozent von Leistungskürzungen betroffen. Lesen Sie weiter:

Soziale Sicherung ist ein Grundrecht - Weg mit den Sanktionen und Leistungskürzungen bei den Grundsicherungen

Zum Welttag der der sozialen Gerechtigkeit am 20. Februar 2011 erklärt die stellvertretende Vorsitzende der Partei DIE LINKE, Katja Kipping:

Soziale Gerechtigkeit ist ohne gesicherte soziale Grundrechte nicht denkbar. Grundrechte sind individuelle Rechte eines jeden Menschen, die er sich nicht erst verdienen muss. Grundrechte stehen dem Menschen als Mensch zu. Das heißt, dass eine soziale Sicherung, die die Existenz und gesellschaftliche Teilhabe des Menschen garantieren soll, ist ohne eine Gegenleistung oder eine Pflicht zur Arbeit dem einzelnen Menschen zuerkannt. Eine Maxime, die die Hartz-Parteien in Deutschland erst verinnerlichen müssen. Sie feilschen nämlich nicht nur in übelster Krämermanier um die Regelsätze auf Armutsniveau. Nein, sie ignorieren auch diese Minimalanforderung an soziale Sicherungssysteme. DIE LINKE fordert die sofortige Abschaffung der Sanktionen und Leistungskürzungen bei den Grundsicherungen.

Die Vorsitzenden der LINKEN, Gesine Lötzsch und Klaus Ernst, erklären zum Tod dreier Bundeswehrsoldaten in Afghanistan:

Der Tod dreier junger Männer ist eine Tragödie. Wir trauern mit den Angehörigen. Dieser Vorfall zeigt einmal mehr, dass der Krieg in Afghanistan nicht zu gewinnen ist. Terror kann man nicht mit Krieg bekämpfen. Wir wiederholen deshalb unsere Forderung: Schluss mit dem Krieg in Afghanistan! Die Bundeswehr hat dort nichts verloren. Der Abzug der deutschen Truppen muss sofort beginnen. Der Abzug der Bundeswehr aus Afghanistan ist das Beste für die Sicherheit der deutschen Soldaten.

A Time for Resistance

By Katrina vanden Heuvel

Wisconsin's Republican governor and Republican-dominated legislature are moving to destroy organized labor, moving to abolish democratic rights that were the essence of the New Deal, and treating working-class Americans as though they were meaningless in our country's mosaic.

Public Worker Protests Spread From Wisconsin to Ohio

In Columbus Ohio, about 3,800 state workers, teachers and other public employees came to the statehouse for a committee hearing. President Barack Obama and House Speaker John Boehner, an Ohioan, argued over whether the bills are 'an assault on unions.'

Volunteers of America

William Rivers Pitt, Truthout: "Did you hear about the uprising? Not the one in Tunisia, or Egypt. No not the one in Libya, though what has been happening there is certainly riveting. Thousands of protesters took to the streets in several cities, defying the forty-year rule of Muammar el-Qaddafi under threat of death. Not the similar one in Bahrain, where several died and many more were injured. Not the similar one in Yemen, which has been going on for more than seven days. Not the really interesting one in Iran, which has been a long time coming, and which prompted the ruling elite to call for the immediate murder of anyone and everyone who is not down with the sickness. Not the one in Iraq, which involved a demand from the city of Baghdad for one billion dollars from the United States of America, to pay for the damage done to the city from the war."

Democratic Senators Leave State to Stall Bill as Mass Protests Continue

Yana Kunichoff, Truthout: "In a continuing attempt to stall a vote on the anti-union bill proposed by Gov. Scott Walker, the 14 Democratic senators have left the state with state troopers dispatched by Republican Senate leaders on their heels. Without at least one additional senator in the chamber, the GOP does not have the majority quorom to vote on the bill, which has been called the biggest assault on worker's rights in Wisconsin and would effectively strip collective bargaining rights from most public-sector unions. Wisconsin was the first state in the nation to give all public-sector workers bargaining rights in 1959."

Why Do They Hate Social Security?

Joe Conason, Truthout: "Among the mysteries of modern politics in America is why so many of our leading pundits and politicians persistently seek to undermine Social Security, that enduring and successful emblem of active government. In the current atmosphere of budgetary panic, self-proclaimed 'centrists' are joining with ideologues of the right in yet another campaign against the program - and yet again they are misinforming the public about its purposes, costs and prospects."

Waist Deep in the Washington Quagmire

Tom Engelhardt, TomDispatch: "Here's the latest news from Congress, in case you've been in Afghanistan for the last couple of weeks. A debate about slashing the federal budget is now upon us, while fears of a possible government shutdown as spring approaches are on the rise. The Republican leadership of the House of Representatives originally picked $40 billion as its target figure for cuts to the as-yet-not-enacted 2011 budget. That was the gauntlet it threw down to the Obama administration, only to find its own proposal slashed to bits by the freshman class of that body's conservative majority.They insisted on adhering to a Republican Pledge to America vow to cut $100 billion from the budget."

A US drone attack late on Sunday killed at least five militants in northwest Pakistan's lawless South Waziristan tribal district, officials said. The drone strike was the first since a US gunman shot and killed two Pakistanis in the eastern city of Lahore on January 27, triggering a diplomatic row between Pakistan and its key terror ally the United States...

UK Guardian Reports Raymond Davis is Working for the CIA

Dave Lindorff, This Can't Be Happening: "A report in the British Guardian newspaper is confirming that Raymond Davis, the man jailed in Lahore, Pakistan charged with murdering two young Pakistanis who were almost certainly themselves working for Pakistan's intelligence agency, the Inter-Service Intelligence (ISI), is an employee of the CIA. The paper says that based upon its reporters' interviews with both Pakistani and US sources, it is 'confirming' that Davis is a CIA spy."

Today the news is about ... the wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, the anthrax attack, the Patriot Act.

Home Sweet Wall Street

Robert Scheer, Truthdig: "A most dastardly deed occurred last Friday, when the Obama administration issued a 29-page policy statement totally abandoning the federal government's time-honored role in helping Americans achieve the goal of homeownership. Instead of punishing the banks that sabotaged the American ideal of a nation of stakeholders by 'securitizing' our homesteads into poker chips to be gambled away in the Wall Street casino, Barack Obama now proposes to turn over the entire mortgage industry to those same banks."
