Mark Engler, Dissent Magazine: ''Wednesday was the tenth anniversary of the first transfer of prisoners to Guantanamo Bay as part of the 'War on Terror.' To mark the date, a coalition of human rights groups, including Witness Against Torture, Code Pink, Amnesty International, and the National Religious Campaign Against Torture, held a protest in Washington, DC. The solemn procession of orange-clad demonstrators stretched for blocks, making the event the largest protest on the issue since the start of the Obama administration.''

Close the Guantanamo Gulag

Marjorie Cohn, Truthout: ''In a recent op-ed in The New York Times, Harvard lecturer Jonathan M. Hansen wrote, 'It is past time to return this imperialist enclave to Cuba.' Obama should heed Hansen s words. For the abiding presence of the Guantanamo gulag is not simply illegal and immoral. It also continues to be a symbol of US hypocrisy and makes us a target for more terrorist attacks.''

Lesson From New Hampshire

J.A. Myerson, Truthout: ''Hanging out in New Hampshire for the run-up to the primary is a powerful education in how undemocratic the American political system is. Corporate-funded journalists run around, jockeying for access to corporate-funded candidates, who, in the case of this Republican field, spent roughly $53 million campaigning in two states, both of which are over 90 percent white, where about 350,000 people voted.''

It s the latest ''surge''

Antiwar.com
by Justin Raimondo

01/13/12

We have effectively been at war with Pakistan for months now, and it is only a matter of time before we begin to move in the troops openly, and in a big way. This war will be an easy sell for the War Party. To begin with, there s the specter of Pakistan s nukes: this threat, combined with the miraculous reincarnation of al-Qaeda, is a replay of Condoleezza Rice s infamous 'mushroom cloud' ploy in the run-up to the invasion of Iraq. Hillary Clinton can be counted on to play this role to the hilt...

Why Do We Ignore the Civilians We Kill in US Wars?

By John Tirman

Why the American silence on our wars' main victims? Our self-image, based on what cultural historian Richard Slotkin calls ''the frontier myth'' in which righteous violence is used to subdue or annihilate the savages of whatever land we are trying to conquer.

''Harte Geschütze wurden im Vorfeld des Streiks im Öffentlichen Dienst Englands aufgefahren: »unverantwortlich, links und schwach« sei Oppositions-Chef Ed Miliband, so der englische Premierminister David Cameron. Und das nur, weil dieser den Streik am 30. November nicht verurteilt hatte und Cameron selbst offenbar befürchtete, sein Projekt einer Anpassung der Pensionen der Staatsbediensteten an das Armutsniveau der Renten in der Privatwirtschaft nicht durchsetzen zu können. Nun versucht er, den nach Gewerkschaftsangaben mit ca. zwei Millionen TeilnehmerInnen »größten Arbeitskampf seit dem Streik 1979« (Tagespiegel, 30.11.2011) kleinzureden. In der Tat war die Beteiligung im Vorfeld höher eingeschätzt worden, doch die Regierung sah sich immerhin genötigt, Soldaten als Streikbrecher einzusetzen, z.B. an Schulen.

In a recent letter in The New York Times, I noted the role played by the government-sponsored enterprises, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, in spawning the financial crisis and burdening taxpayers to the tune of hundreds of billions of dollars. The two mortgage giants bought up risky sub-prime mortgages partly in order to satisfy government affordable-housing mandates, as even the liberal Village Voice found in its investigative reporting...

If libertarian Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, did not exist, it would be necessary to invent him. Paul, as expected, did well in Iowa. His strong third-place finish is substantially better than he did in 2008, and his national poll numbers are twice what they were back then. Paul s appeal is easy to understand. His antiwar message of limited government, low taxes and federalism have strong appeal, especially to young people who oppose the war on drugs...

Occupy New Hampshire counters the Republican narrative

The Nation
by Ben Adler

01/09/12

New Hampshire is a small state, so its primary does not allocate many delegates to the Republican National Convention. The reason New Hampshire s primary is so important is the momentum it creates for the winning candidate. And the reason it creates momentum is because the national media obsessively cover it in great detail. So, in some sense, the media coverage is itself the primary. Ground zero for the media in New Hampshire right now is the Radisson hotel in downtown Manchester...

The elites don t like us peons speaking out on issues they consider their personal domain, and foreign policy certainly falls into this category. When military figures, big shots like Petraeus, get up there in full uniform, pushing a pro-war agenda, well, that s just fine and dandy. But let a mere corporal try to get a word in edgewise in the national debate over war and peace, and suddenly the Paul Rieckhoffs of this world are demanding a court martial!

''Weltweit ähneln sich die Maßnahmen gegen Demokratiebewegungen. Ob die Welt demokratischer wird oder immer mehr wie China aussieht, wird sich bald zeigen?'' Artikel von Naomi Wolf in Die Welt online vom 05.01.2012

Empören, Okkupieren, Verweigern

''Warum ist es, vor allem in Deutschland, so ruhig? Wo bleiben die Proteste? Jahrelang staunten Linke, SoziologInnen und auch PolitikerInnen über die erstaunliche Akzeptanz der Krisenfolgen und Sparpakete. Lange Zeit galten neidische Blicke der Gewerkschaftslinken zum westlichen Nachbarn: ''Französisch lernen!''. Eher autonome Herzen ließen die griechischen Krisen-Proteste höher schlagen. Und immer wieder die frustrierte Frage: Warum nicht bei uns? Geht es ''uns'' (noch) zu gut?...?

Mitt Romney, vulture capitalist

Our Future
by Terrance Heath

01/09/12

One of the benefits of the seemingly endless Republican primaries, aside from the entertainment value, is the opportunity to discover how right the candidates are ... about each other. ... What s more striking than the intensity of the candidates' obligatory attacks, however, is the accuracy of their worst accusations against one another. The most recent, and perhaps most striking example, is Newt Gingrich s latest attack on Mitt Romney...

Mitt Romney: Extremist in pinstripes

The Nation
by Katrina vanden Heuvel

01/10/12

Mitt Romney s dead heat with Rick Santorum in the Iowa caucuses bolstered the media narrative that Mitt Romney may not be conservative enough for Republican primary voters. This characterization serves Romney well. His rivals carve up each other, hoping to emerge as the conservative 'alternative' to Romney. And vast swaths of the media discount his reactionary views, anticipating his 'pivot' to more moderate positions once the nomination is secured. In reality, Romney is a remarkably reactionary candidate, camouflaged in corporate pinstripes...
