Lee Fang, Republic Report: ''At a retreat last weekend, dozens of wealthy donors convened in a large golf resort in Indian Wells, Calif. for a four day conference to raise money and plot out election year strategy, the Republic Report has confirmed. We traveled to the conference, and spoke to a few of the attendees. The summit, organized by the billionaire brothers Charles and David Koch, was cloaked in secrecy.''

What the Koch Brothers Say Online, but Won t Say Under Oath

Robert Greenwald, Brave New Foundation: ''Why will Charles and David Koch produce a video about their position on the Keystone XL oil pipeline and not testify before Congress about it?... The Koch brothers refuse to testify in Congress about their interest in the pipeline, but they'll make a web video asserting their innocence.... We took the Kochs' video retreat and added a few facts from the historical record.''

Unweigerlich abwärts

Der Westen degeneriert, die Machtkoordinaten verschieben sich. Nur durch Rückbesinnung aufs kulturelle Erbe kann sein Niedergang noch aufgehalten werden, meint der Wirtschaftshistoriker Niall Ferguson.

Klimawandel: Der Golfstrom wärmt sich rascher auf

Meeresströmungen reagieren stärker als bisher angenommen. Der Golfstrom ist nicht nur eine der stärksten Meeresströmungen. Die mit ihm transportierte Wärme ist insbesondere für das vergleichsweise milde Klima in Mittel- und Nordeuropa verantwortlich. Ein internationales Forscherteam untersuchte nun, wie sich das Verhalten dieses Stromsystems, wie auch anderer, sogenannter westlicher Randströme, im letzten Jahrhundert verändert hat.

Konzernchefs zu Klassenkämpfern

Der Plot des armen Stromkunden, der für die Solaranlage der Reichen blutet, ist professionelle Kommunikation. Professionell manipulierend. Sie haben es vielleicht gemerkt: es sind wieder Festwochen des Photovoltaik-Bashings. ''Katastrophe'' schreien FAZ, Spiegel, WELT, Cicero und andere Blätter, weil die Energiewende tatsächlich Wirklichkeit wird mit dem Zubau an Solarmodulen! Das löst bei erheblichen Teilen der Publizistik Horrorvisionen aus: ''Solarwahn, Ananas in Alaska, Irrsinn, völlige Ineffizienz'', vermelden leidend die Leitmedien. Kolumne von Martin Unfried

Wie lassen sich erneuerbare Energien ins Stromnetz einfügen?

Viele Bürger haben die Chance der erneuerbaren Stromerzeugung erkannt und in Photovoltaik-, Windkraft- und Biogasanlagen investiert. Damit der dezentral erzeugte Strom aufgenommen werden kann, müssen die Stromnetze umgerüstet und an einzelnen Stellen verstärkt werden. Findige Ingenieure haben Lösungen entwickelt, mit denen die Verteilnetze bis zu vier mal so viel Strom aufnehmen können ohne neue Kabel verlegen zu müssen. Das spart erhebliche Kosten.

Proxy War in Syria Threatens Catastrophe for the Middle East

The Syrian crucible

by Justin Raimondo

In the Western media, the Syrian narrative is all about how helpless protesters are being massacred by government forces, but the reality is quite different, as this report by the Arab League monitoring mission makes clear. Of course we didn t hear much about this report when it was released: anything that goes against the Official Narrative is summarily dropped into the Memory Hole and never seen again...

Working Poor: Almost Half Of U.S. Households Live One Crisis From The Bread Line

According to the report, 43 percent of households in America, some 127.5 million people, are liquid-asset poor. If one of these households experiences a sudden loss of income, caused, for example, by a layoff or a medical emergency, it will fall below the poverty line within three months.

Mitt, Mormons and Money

Mark T. Harris, Truthout: ''The strategic formula Romney brought to Bain Capital he learned from Bruce Henderson, a one-time Bible salesman and founder of the Boston Consulting Group. As a consultant, Henderson preached a kind of modern-day Taylorism, touting 'scientific management' principles based on what the editors of the Harvard Business Review call 'sharp-penciled analytics' geared to reducing costs and increasing efficiency. The Henderson cost-cutting model routinely translated into, among other things, firing 'excess' workers.''

But I realized that being 'very poor' is no laughing matter to millions of Americans.''

The state s fundamental purpose in economic affairs is to foreclose opportunities for ordinary, working people, blocking the passageways of real voluntary exchange to the advantage of the established players. To the floundering have-not who can t start a business out of her home because she doesn t have the costly permits and licenses, or to the homeless family who can t make rent due to the state-enabled monopolization of real estate, food stamps and subsidized housing appear like scraps cast into the rubbish after the corpulent corporate hogs have finished gorging...

Gitmo s gotta go

Wrights 2012
by R. Lee Wrights

02/04/12

The prison facility at Guantanamo Bay does more than just blur the line between the good guys and the bad guys; it erases the line entirely. Those who fought to establish American freedom and independence were intimately familiar with a despotic government that rendered the military 'independent of and superior to the Civil power,' which deprived people 'of the benefits of Trial by Jury,' or which transported them 'beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences.' That was one of the causes of the American Revolution...

Panetta report fuels concerns that Israel will attack Iran

MSNBC

02/02/12

Concerns that Israel will attack Iran in an attempt to prevent Tehran from developing nuclear weapons escalated Thursday when the Washington Post reported that Defense Secretary Leon Panetta believes there is a 'strong likelihood' that Tel Aviv will launch such an offensive in April, May or June. Panetta, who is attending a NATO meeting in Brussels, did not dispute the report by Post Op/Ed columnist David Ignatius...

Clapper-trap on Iranian attacks inside the US

CounterPunch
by Dave Lindorff

02/02/12

Americans ought to understand: If we are going to be an aggressor nation, and are going to sponsor acts of terror abroad against nations that have not attacked us or our allies, we need to expect, or at least be prepared to face attacks on our own country. Ask yourself, what would you do if you were in the Iranian government? What would you support your government doing if you were an Iranian citizen?

Israeli self-reliance is a wonderful thing, if only it were true. The United States has been tied hand and foot to Israeli policies and would be drawn inexorably into anything that Tel Aviv starts. The confident assertion that Iran would be unable to retaliate effectively might prove as reliable as the claims made in 2002 that there would be a 'cakewalk' in Iraq...

Today there are more than 7,000 drones and 12,000 ground robots in use by all branches of the military. These systems mean less ''American'' deaths and also less political risk for the US when it takes acts of lethal force, often outside of official war zones.

French Scientists: Childhood Leukemia Spikes Near Nuclear Reactors

John LaForge, Truthout: ''The 'International Journal of Cancer' has published a scientific study establishing a correlation between childhood leukemia and proximity to nuclear power stations. This report promises to do for France what a set of 2008 reports did for Germany, which recently legislated a total phase-out of all its power reactors by 2022 ... When the US public owns up to the dangers of nuclear power, we, too, can get around to its replacement and phase out.''

Scott Keyes, ThinkProgress: ''Eight in 10 Americans believe that there is too much money in American politics, and only 17 percent agree with the Supreme Court that corporations should be allowed to spend unlimited money to try to influence elections. Yet top Republicans are coalescing around the idea that current campaign finance laws, which still prohibit corporations and wealthy individuals from giving unlimited money directly to campaigns, are actually too restrictive.''

However, over the last several years, Republican political rhetoric has mutated into a kind of trickle-down insanity that has more and more translated itself in random acts of violence.''
