Freedom must not be compromised

'Ghosts of Afghanistan: The Haunted Battleground'

Jonathan Steele, Counterpoint Press: 'This tarnished history of peace talks and cease-fire agreements appears to have imbued U.S. decision makers and the American electorate with a deep prejudice against them.... Since freedom must not be compromised, the notion that a war to safeguard and spread liberty should give way to talks sounds weak and unworthy of a nation that is the world s sole superpower and whose sacred self-appointed mission is to prevail.'

The Threat of Warships on an 'Island of World Peace'

Noam Chomsky, Truthout: "Jeju Island is once again threatened by joint U.S.-South Korean militarization and violence: the construction of a naval base on what many consider to be Jeju s most beautiful coastline.... The protest now taking place on Jeju counts as a critical struggle against a potentially devastating war in Asia, and against the deeply rooted institutional structures that are driving the world toward ever more conflict.'

Haiti: Where is the Money?

Happy Genocide Day!

Thom Hartmann, Truthout: 'If you fly over the country of Haiti on the island of Hispaniola, the island on which Columbus landed, it looks like somebody took a blowtorch and burned away anything green. Even the ocean around the port capital of Port au Prince is choked for miles with the brown of human sewage and eroded topsoil. From the air, it looks like a lava flow spilling out into the sea. The history of this small island is, in many ways, a microcosm for what s happening in the whole world.'

Tawakkul Karman, Democracy Now!: 'Yemeni Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Tawakkul Karman, one of three recipients who split the award this year, spoke in New York City at the Brecht Forum in September 2010 about state violence, targeted killings, and human rights abuses enabled by the so-called 'War on Terror'.... Karman notes that by cooperating with the Yemeni government s repression of its opponents, the United States 'has transitioned from being the leader of the free world to a watch dog for tyrant regimes.'

The al-Awlaki murder and the rule of law

Future of Freedom Foundation
by Tim Kelly

10/06/11

There is no mention in the U.S. Constitution of a presidential power to order the summary execution of any person. In fact, that power is expressly denied to the government by the Fifth Amendment, which states: 'No person shall be ? deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law.' What that means in layman s terms is the government cannot kill you, imprison you, or take your property without first clearing some legal hurdles...

The assassination decider

Future of Freedom Foundation

Statists are continuing to say that President Obama s assassination of American citizen Anwar al-Awlaki (through his CIA and military forces) was justified because Awlaki was supposedly exhorting Muslims to resist U.S. foreign policy with force and that he was also supposedly engaged in operational activities to bring this about. For his part, Obama is remaining mum on the subject, as are the CIA and the Pentagon. The statists are missing the point, however...

Ex-commander: US started Afghan war lacking info
Pasadena Star-News

10/06/11

The U.S. began the war in Afghanistan with a 'frighteningly simplistic' view of the country, and even 10 years later lacks knowledge that could help bring the conflict to a successful end, a former top commander said Thursday. Retired Army Gen. Stanley McChrystal said in remarks at the Council on Foreign Relations that the U.S. and its NATO allies are only 'a little better than' 50 percent of the way to reaching their war goals.'

Occupy Wall Street: The Most Important Thing in the World Now

When people are panicked and desperate and no one seems to know what to do, that is the ideal time to push through their wish list of pro-corporate policies: privatizing education and social security, slashing public services, getting rid of the last constraints on corporate power.

Got Class Warfare? The Whole World Is Watching

Henry A. Giroux, Truthout: 'Class warfare has once again entered the vocabulary of mainstream national politics, but this time with a strange twist. Right-wing politicians such as Paul Ryan and various high-profile conservative media pundits and corporate-funded think-tank spokespersons have made visible what ruling classes have long tried to bury beneath the discourse of meritocracy and the myth of the classless society - that is, the harsh consequences of class power, hierarchical rule and savage inequality.'

The evening march, which counted as many as 10,000-20,000 participants, included many new supporters and a large number of union workers from National Nurses United, the Transport Workers Union, Services Workers International Union, the Teamsters as well as the city s teachers' and public service employees' unions, among others.'

What Role for Labor in the Progressive Uprising? A Conversation With Stephen Lerner

Amy Dean, Truthout: 'No force did more to build the American middle class than organized labor. In recent decades, however, unions have been decimated. Despite concerted efforts to turn the tide, the movement now represents only 7 percent of workers in the private sector. Never have working people in this country been more in need of a collective voice. Yet, we must ask, can labor alone create the change we need? If it can t do it by itself, what role can unions play in supporting a wider progressive uprising?

New Restrictive Voting Rules Could Hurt Five Million Americans

Jorge Rivas, ColorLines: 'A new study from the Brennan Center for Justice at NYU puts forth an ominous prediction: five million voters could be affected by the deluge of restrictive voting laws that have swept the country in recent years.

Importantly, the sheer number of voters who could be impacted is larger than the margin of victory in two of the last three presidential elections.'

Watch Your Health and Your Pocketbook: A Bipartisan Scheme for Regulatory Deform

Gerald Epstein, TripleCrisis: 'Right wing politicians in the U.S. have gotten very good at channeling George Orwell: As the world economy teeters on the brink of another economic catastrophe whose precipitating cause was a twenty year project to de-regulate finance in the U.S. and abroad, they insist that the cause of our woes is 'job killing' regulations. Never mind that, according to the World Bank, the U.S. ranks 5th in the world in terms of ease of doing business in relation to regulations, and that over the past 5 years, doing business in the U.S. overall has become easier, not harder. The same report shows that in the OECD the ease of doing business has stayed the same or improved since 2006. Yet in the OECD countries 50% more people were unemployed in 2010 than in 2007.'

Obama s death panel

Antiwar.com
by Justin Raimondo

10/07/11

When the Tea Partiers protested President Obama s healthcare plan, they claimed that, in order to shave medical costs, the healthcare bureaucracy would be setting up 'death panels,' which would decide who gets medical treatment and who didn t. ... The Obama cult exploded in incredulous disdain .... Well, as it turns out, the Obama administration has indeed set up a Death Panel, albeit not in the realm of healthcare...

Treffen in Berlin: Merkel und Sarkozy wollen Europas Banken gemeinsam verteidigen

'Neuer Plan zur Euro-Rettung: Bundeskanzlerin Merkel und Frankreichs Staatspräsident Sarkozy verabreden in Berlin ein Hilfspaket, um schädliche Auswirkungen der Griechenland-Pleite auf europäische Geldinstitute zu verhindern. Ihr Rettungspaket wollen sie bis Ende des Monats vorstellen. Bundesfinanzminister Schäuble warnt indes vor einer weiteren Ausbreitung der Krise?'

In der Falle der Zahlenkönige: Griechenland in fester Hand einer chaotischen Schuldendiktatur, in der täglich neue Steuern erfunden werden

'Der gestrige Streiktag in Athen stand unter einem schlechten Vorzeichen. Die Diskussion über die dringend notwendige sechste Kredittranche des Troikakredits wurde auf November verschoben. Bisher hieß es, dass der griechische Staat nur bis zum zehnten oder fünfzehnten Oktober Geld hat. Finanzminister Evangelos Venizelos behauptet jedoch, er habe plötzlich vergessene Milliarden gefunden und könne damit bis November durchhalten.

Das wiederum brachte die übrigen Europäer auf den Gedanken, dass die listigen griechischen Zahlenkünstler auch weitere Milliarden vergessen haben könnten. Die noch im Herbst 2010 für ihren Mut zur Wahrheit geehrte Regierung steht nun selbst als Betrüger. Derart brüskiert und gedemütigt ließ der Staat am Mittwoch seine Wut an den eigenen Bürgern aus?'

Troika fordert Aufhebung der Tarifautonomie

Die Troika ist unzufrieden und stellt neue Forderungen: Die Tarifautonomie soll aufgehoben werden und der Mindestlohn gesenkt. Die griechische Regierung lehnt ab.

Aus dem Text: '(?) Sinken sollen der monatliche Mindestlohn von 741 Euro und die Mindesttagessatz von 34 Euro. Die Regierung von Ministerpräsident Giorgios Papandreou hat dies abgelehnt. Außerdem fordert die Troika mehr Engagement bei der Privatisierung. Griechenland hat für 2011 Privatisierungserlöse von 5 Milliarden Euro zugesagt. Das ist illusorisch geworden. Der Verkauf der letzten Tranche des Telekomunternehmens OTE erbrachte 400 Millionen Euro.

'Mit anhaltendem Protest reagiert die griechische Bevölkerung auf die erneuten exzessiven Spardiktate der EU. Wie es in Medienberichten heißt, gibt sich die sogenannte Troika aus EU, EZB und IWF, die die von Berlin und Brüssel erzwungenen Athener Kürzungsprogramme überprüfen soll, nicht damit zufrieden, dass die griechische Regierung die Entlassung Zehntausender Staatsbediensteter in Aussicht gestellt hat, und fordert von Athen weiterreichende Schritte. Dabei macht das Land bereits jetzt einen sozialen Kahlschlag noch nie dagewesenen Ausmaßes durch: Während die Wirtschaft in den kompletten Ruin treibt, erreicht die Arbeitslosigkeit neue Rekordhöhen; die Renten wurden bislang um rund ein Fünftel, die Einkünfte der im europäischen Vergleich schlecht bezahlten staatlichen Angestellten auf durchschnittlich 60 bis 70 Prozent gekürzt. Neu eingestellte junge Erwachsene müssen mit einem Bruttolohn von rund 600 Euro im Monat auskommen. Dabei wird die deutsche Rolle beim Ausweiden des Staates in Griechenland genau registriert. Jüngster Coup ist der Vorschlag einer Beratungsgesellschaft aus der Bundesrepublik, dem zufolge Griechenland sein Staatsvermögen an die EU verkaufen soll - zwecks Weitergabe an private Interessenten unter Brüsseler Regie...'

Assassinating with impunity

Future of Freedom Foundation

Statist supporters of President Obama s assassination of an American citizen overseas, Anwar al-Awlaki, are convinced that Awlaki s actions warranted his assassination. There is at least one big problem, however, with their convictions: How do they know what Awlaki did to warrant his assassination? Moreover, how do they know that the law permits an assassination under such circumstances?

Yemen: US drones kill 11

The United States has raised the tempo in its war against al-Qaida in Yemen, killing nine of the terror groups' militants in the second, high-profile airstrike in as many weeks. The dead in the late Friday night strike included the son of Anwar al-Awlaki, the prominent American-Yemeni militant killed in a Sept. 30 strike. Two more militants were killed and 12 wounded in other strikes...

Freedom Lost

by Pastor Chuck Baldwin

Many times I hear the ostriches among us exclaim, 'What freedoms have we lost? America is the freest country on earth.' We have all heard that, right? Of course, part of the problem is that, thanks to our education system, media, and churches, many Americans do not even know how to define liberty and freedom. The truth is........

Study: A Fifth of War Veterans Have Mental Health Issues

David Goldstein, McClatchy Newspapers: 'Nearly 20 percent of the more than 2 million troops who have served in Iraq and Afghanistan suffer from mental health conditions, according to a new report. They amount to more than half of the 712,000 veterans from both wars who have sought medical treatment since leaving military service. Nearly a third of those veterans may suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder, one of the signature injuries of the conflicts.'

Altenheime betrügen Bewohner und Pflegekassen

'Skandal bei der Altenpflege: In vielen Seniorenheimen wird betrogen, indem weniger Pfleger eingesetzt werden als vorgeschrieben. Die eingesparten Löhne mehren den Gewinn. Etwa jedes fünfte Altenheim in Deutschland betrügt seine Bewohner und die Pflegekassen, indem es weniger Altenpfleger beschäftigt als für die Versorgung Pflegebedürftiger nötig wäre.

Foreigners losing confidence in holding US Treasury and agency debt

Casey Research
by Bud Conrad

10/17/11

Foreign central banks buy US Treasury and Agency debt through accounts at the Federal Reserve, where it is held in custody. Without these central banks buying our debt, the US federal government would have to find a new source of funds or the result could be higher interest rates. Looking at the data on a monthly basis (and then multiplied by 12 to give the annual rate), here is the dramatic picture of how foreign central-bank purchases of our debt have shifted, from buying $500 billion to selling off $1 trillion...

Sarah Jaffe, AlterNet: 'Its' no surprise that billionaire New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg doesnt' support the millionaires' tax. It should be a little bit more surprising that Cuomo, son of liberal icon Mario Cuomo, opposes the tax as well. But Cuomo has long had an ambivalent relationship with his own party - and even as momentum created by Occupy Wall Street has politicians from Barack Obama on down realizing that the time is ripe for some economic populism, Cuomo appears committed to protecting the interests of the rich.'

Support Built-to-Last Companies, Not Built-to-Loot Enterprises

Chuck Collins, Institute for Policy Studies: 'A powerful coalition of US-based global companies is lobbying hard for a 'tax holiday' on offshore profits. Companies like Google, Apple, Pfizer, and General Electric have parked huge amounts of profits - a stash totaling more than $1.4 trillion - in offshore tax havens. They have stowed those funds abroad primarily to avoid having to pay federal taxes on that income.'

Austeritätsexperimente in Griechenland. Die Euro-Krise ist kein Kampf zwischen Staaten, sondern ein sozialer Konflikt

Griechenland spart. Gleichzeitig versucht der griechische Staat verzweifelt an Einnahmen zu kommen - durch Sondersteuern auf von allen zu leistende Zahlungen wie etwa Wasserrechnungen. Die großen Einkommen bleiben unangetastet. Die Lohneinschnitte und Steuererhöhungen bedeuten für viele Leute einen Realeinkommensverlust von bis zu 40 Prozent. Welche 'Erzählungen' zur Krise gibt es in Griechenland? Wie ist die griechische Austeritätspolitik einzuschätzen? Über diese und andere Fragen sprach ak mit Jannis Milios, Ökonom aus Athen und Mitherausgeber der Zeitschrift Theseis.

Surrendering the Constitution

Campaign For Liberty
by Tim Shoemaker

09/30/11

This morning, news broke in the US that a drone strike killed 'radical cleric' Anwar al-Awlaki, an American citizen living in Yemen. This is disturbing for multiple reasons, namely that the executive branch now has successfully subverted the 5th Amendment in a way that likely would have made George W. Bush and Dick Cheney s legal counsel blush. This Presidential assassination now establishes the executive branch as judge, jury, and executioner of any American they deem a 'threat' to national security...

The progressive policy of imperial murder

Empire Burlesque
by Chris Floyd

09/30/11

The whole point of these high-profile murders was to establish, yet again, the 'right' - and the power - of the U.S. president to kill anyone on earth, including American citizens, at his arbitrary command. .... The murders of Anwar al-Awlaki and Samir Khan are simply more public confirmations of this firmly established truth...

Assassinating Awlaki

CounterPunch
by Michael Brenner
10/03/11

The Awlaki killing can only be interpreted and assayed meaningfully if placed in the context of the ?War On Terror.? For America today is not the same country that it was before 9/11. Our ethical standards, our sense of danger and vulnerability, our understanding of right and wrong, our readiness to place enormous discretionary power in the hands of our rulers - all have been qualitatively altered...

We were warned

Future of Freedom Foundation
by Jacob G. Hornberger

10/03/11

In a Fourth of July message to Congress, John Quincy Adams suggested that if America were ever to embrace the principles of empire and militarism, she would become a dictatress of the world. What better evidence of Adams? wisdom than President Obama s assassination of American citizen Anwar al-Awlaki, a state-sanctioned murder, one without any judicial process whatsoever?

Is it legal?

Authority!
by Timothy J Taylor

10/02/11

All I know is this: If it is legal for our government to kill people labeled 'terrorist' without due process, then it is perfectly legal for our enemies to label Americans as terrorists and kill us legally anywhere in the world...

Awlaki is first hit for new drone base

The military, under the Joint Special Operations Command, has patrolled the airspace over Yemen with its own drones for much of the past year. Those aircraft are flown out of a base in Djibouti. The military has also operated drones out a base on the Seychelles and is establishing an airstrip in Ethiopia.

A former gang member and a convert to Islam, Padilla was arrested at Chicago s O'Hare Airport, in connection with an alleged 'dirty bomb plot' that never existed.... '

The Pro-Hunger Lobby: GOP Frontrunners Fight Aid for Starving Americans

Maya Schenwar, Truthout: 'The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), otherwise known as food stamps, is one of the most efficient, effective, penny-pinching programs in today s government-scape. Food stamps have cushioned the recession s blow for the 45 million Americans that depend on them for daily meals. And we are not talking government-subsidized caviar: On average, food stamp recipients can expect an allotment of $30 per week. Plus, it s a dream of a stimulus - every $5 in SNAP benefits generates nearly double that in economic activity. However, as the race to 2012 builds and the crazies get crazier, the top GOP presidential hopefuls have turned on this all-star program with a vengeance.'

Zaid Jilani, ThinkProgress: 'LaGreca offered an eloquent defense of the protests and growing economic inequality in the United States, and scolded the Fox staffer for his network s role as a far-right 'propaganda machine.' LaGreca noted Fox s parent corporation was under investigation by the Department of Justice and that the network was 'wasting time' on subjects such as President Obama s birth certificate and Solyndra. The Fox producer promised LaGreca he would 'put any message you want out there, to give you fair coverage,' yet when the show was aired Wednesday, the footage was nowhere to be found.'

It may shock you exactly how wealthy this top 1 percent of Americans is. ThinkProgress has assembled five facts about this class of super-rich Americans.'

Seit dem 17. September 2011 campieren Protestierende vor der Wallstreet. Am 2.

'In New York solidarisierten sich am Wochenende mehrere Gewerkschaften der Stadt sowie Tausende Bürger mit den Aktivisten von »Occupy Wall Street« (Besetzt Wall Street), die seit mehr als zwei Wochen erfolgreich Regen und fallenden Temperaturen trotzen und einen Platz im Finanzdistrikt Manhattans, den Zuccotti-Park, besetzt halten.'
