Liam Hysjulien, As It Ought to Be: ''Since 2008, the geopolitics of food, both on the production and consumption side, has become a growing crisis on the one hand, and a call for social revolution on the other.... Out of the Arab Spring revolutions, the importance of food has not only lent credence to realities of inequality, corruption, and desperation, but has also provided an emblematic demarcation for what kinds of abuse people will no longer endure.''

The Summer of Muslim Discontent

By James Petras

The so-called ''Arab Spring'' is a distant and bitter memory to those who fought and struggled for a better world, not to speak of the thousands who lost, life and limb.

The real State of the Union

by John Stossel

01/25/12

Has Barack Obama learned nothing in three years? During his State of the Union address, he promised 'a blueprint for an economy.' But economies are crushed by blueprints. ... And any attempt at it will come to grief. Politicians like Obama believe they are the best judges of how we should conduct our lives. ... But we who love our lives and our freedom say: No, thanks. We need no social architect. We need liberty under law. Thats' it...

Staring at Empty Pages

William Rivers Pitt, Truthout: ''Obama spent a great deal of time on Tuesday night underscoring many of Occupys' most central themes: income inequality, tax fairness and the need to rein in the illegal and immoral behavior of the nation's largest financial institutions. Talk is cheap, of course; despite all of Mr. Obamas' high-flown rhetoric, his administration is reportedly prepared to cut a disgracefully easy deal with the five banks most directly responsible for the financial meltdown, giving his so-pretty words a hollow ring.''

Newt Gingrich? Really?

by Pastor Chuck Baldwin

In the first place, Newt Gingrich is the personification of the word ''globalist.'' Gingrich is a longtime member of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR). Gingrich never saw a globalist agenda-item that he did not enthusiastically support such as: NAFTA, GATT, the WTO, FTAA, the North American Union (by whatever name it s called at the moment), the NAFTA Superhighway, ad infinitum. Gingrich is as much committed to open borders as is Bill Clinton......

The federal government is NOT going to give up until they get full congressional approval on internet censorship measures and open legal license to enforce those measures For now, they have relegated their attacks to a relatively small number of sites, mostly dealing in downloadable media. However, as SOPA went down the tubes due to mass civil fury, the feds have come back more quietly with the ACTA...

Stopping the rush to war against Iran

Future of Freedom Foundation
by Sheldon Richman

01/23/12

A growing group of individuals and organizations has designated Saturday, February 4, as a 'National Day of Action' aimed at preventing a war against Iran. The manifesto is simple: 'No War, No Sanctions, No Intervention, No Assassinations.' Nothing is more urgent than stopping the march to war now underway...

The easiest thing in the world

The Power of Narrative
by Arthur Silber

01/24/12

Perhaps Iran sinks a U.S. ship; at least, our government will say it was Iran that did it. Or Iran kills some U.S. soldiers; at least, our government will say it was Iran that killed them. Whatever the U.S. Government might claim, history should teach you one thing, if nothing else at all: the truth of the claim will not matter. The facts will not matter. The U.S. Government and its compliant media have been preparing this ground for years...

Civil Liberty, essentially the accountability of government to law that serves to protect the innocent, is the historic achievement of the English over many centuries from its beginnings with the foundation for common law established by Alfred the Great in the 9th century through Magna Carta in the 13th century to the Glorious Revolution in the 17th century. If this human achievement is lost, it is unlikely to be resurrected. If the Constitution that Bush and Obama have murdered stays in its grave one more presidential term, no one will be able to re-establish the Constitutions? authority...

Whether it will be celebrated, mourned, or ignored is not at all clear.... What we do right now, or fail to do, will determine what kind of world will greet that event. It is not an attractive prospect if present tendencies persist, not least, because the Great Charter is being shredded before our eyes.''

Shale-Shocked: Fracking Gets Its Own Occupy Movement

Ellen Cantarow, TomDispatch: ''This is a story about water, the land surrounding it, and the lives it sustains. Clean water should be a right: there is no life without it.... But for once, this story isn t about tragedy. It's about a resistance movement that has arisen to challenge some of the most powerful corporations in history.''

Wrights 2012
by R. Lee Wrights

01/21/12

Despite all the hysteria, wailing and gnashing of teeth from Washington warhawks, there are no spending cuts proposed in the defense budget nor is there any change at all in our defense policy. Typical of the frenzy was the comment by House Armed Services Committee Chairman Rep. Buck McKeon (R-Calif.) that the ''massive cuts'' and supposedly new strategy 'ensures American decline.' But it?s all a charade...

US financial crisis and globalization

Hawaii Reporter
by Panos Prevedouros, Ph.D.

03/01/12

In the coming years US may suffer greatly by the very pattern that it advocated: Globalization. The US is substantially dependent on outside sources to supply industrial products, consumer products, food and energy. So far this has worked well, but the table is about to be turned around...

The Financial Crisis as A Global Crime

Dr. Brian Moench, Truthout: ''In late December a group of doctors and environmental groups in Salt Lake City, Utah, announced a lawsuit against the third-largest mining corporation in the world, Rio Tinto, for violating the Clean Air Act in Utah.... The Utah Physicians for Healthy Environment estimate that the mortality, health and environmental costs to the community from [Rio Tinto] pollution is between $2 billion and $4 billion, more than the value of the wages and taxes that they pay.''

Heute titelte das Boulevardblatt BILD wie gewohnt in großen Lettern: ''Der Hartz-IV-Anteil bei vielen Ausländern ist noch immer erschreckend hoch!''. Angeblich würden laut einer Statistischen Auswertung der Bundesagentur für Arbeit (BA) Ausländer ''doppelt so oft von Hartz IV betroffenen sein wie Deutsche''. Um die angebliche Schreckensnachricht zu untermauern wird eine Tabelle angefügt, die beweisen soll, wie oft welche Menschen aus unterschiedlichen Herkunftsländern Hartz IV beziehen. Weiterlesen:

Die klassischen Hierarchie-Ebenen wird es bald nicht mehr geben, meint Zukunftsforscher Erik Händeler. Sozialkompetenz wird so wichtig wie nie zuvor. Erik Händeler, 42, ist Volkswirt und Zukunftsforscher. Er vertritt die These, dass eine Kultur der Kooperation und das Sozialverhalten wichtige Eckpfeiler für den Wohlstand der Zukunft sein werden. Die Konkurrenzfähigkeit von Unternehmen hängt zunehmend davon ab, wie das Wissen gemanagt wird, sagt er.

Offener Brief von Franz Alt an Philipp Rösler: Wie wärs´ mit einer grünen FDP, Herr Wirtschaftsminister?

Die FDP war mal eine umweltfreundliche Partei. Sogar die erste in Deutschland, noch bevor es die Grünen gab. Hans Dietrich Genscher und Gerhard Baum hatten als Innenminister engagiert die Umweltpolitik in Deutschland begründet und in ihrem Ministerium verankert.

Man stelle sich vor, der deutsche Wirtschaftsminister fordere, wegen der sprudelnden Gewinne der Automobilkonzerne staatliche Hilfen einzustellen: etwa die steuerlichen Abschreibemöglichkeiten großer Dienstwagen oder die staatlichen Hilfen beim Aufbau der Elektromobilität. Zur Begründung bemüht er ein soziales Argument: Der Bezieher mittlerer Einkommen in Gelsenkirchen solle doch nicht über seine Steuern den Porsche Cayenne des schwäbischen Zahnarztes mitfinanzieren.

EEG-Debatte verschleiert wahre Stromkosten

Neben PV-Vergütungen müssen Industrieprivilegien und Kosten von Atom und Kohle auf den Prüfstand. Wirtschaftsminister Philipp Rösler und Umweltminister Norbert Röttgen wollen sich im Laufe der Woche im EEG-Streit einigen. In der Diskussion um Quoten, Deckel und Solarstrom werden die wahren Kosten unseres Stroms oft eher verschleiert als geklärt, kritisiert das Forum Ökologisch-Soziale Marktwirtschaft. Vergünstigungen für die Industrie müssen abgebaut und Klarheit über die wahren Kosten von Atom und Kohle hergestellt werden.
