We Are Fighting Islamism From Ignorance, As We Did The Cold War

By Simon Jenkins

The west wasted trillions in needless conflict with the USSR. Now we are being brainwashed into confrontation with Iran.

Are the War Hawks Watching? In Lauded Iranian Film, Self-Interest Yields Tragedy

Richard Silverstein, Truthout: ''After watching the film, I was tempted to see it as a moral allegory for the insanity that currently reigns in relations between Iran and the West. Just like the couple in the film and the two separate families, who each act out of good motives, but whose obtuseness leads to tragedy, so Iran and its enemies seem hellbent on a confrontation that can only lead to tragedy for everyone involved.''

Frau Merkel, bitte übernehmen Sie! Zwei Drittel der Bürger halten Solarkürzung für falsch

Die beiden Solarfeinde Wirtschaftsminister Rösler und Umweltminister Röttgen wollen die größte Energiequelle dieses Planeten, die Sonnenenergie, ausbremsen und bis 2020 fast komplett ausschalten. Tatsächlich haben sich die beiden Minister auf ein Solarenergieausstiegsgesetz geeinigt. Franz Alt moderiert am Montag, den 5. März, die Großkundgebung vor dem Brandenburger Tor in Berlin.

PV-Gesetzesnovelle: Kabinett will Parlament entmachten

Rösler zerstört deutsche PV-Hersteller ein Jahr vor Marktreife. Die deutschen Stromnutzer haben über 10 Jahre ein volkswirtschaftliches Wunder mitgetragen, das Philipp Rösler ein Jahr vor dem globalen Markteintritt zerstört. Dadurch bleiben zwar die Kosten bestehen, aber die Einnahmen werden im Laufe des nächsten Jahres deutlich zurück gehen. Gewinner sind der asiatische Markt und die Stromkonzerne.

Beschädigung des guten Rufs

Eicke R. Weber sagt, die Kürzung der Solarförderung sei schlecht für den Wirtschaftsstandort Deutschland. Seit der entsetzlichen Kernkraftkatastrophe von Fukushima vor fast genau einem Jahr hat Deutschland die Energiewende hin zur nachhaltig bereitgestellten Energie ernsthaft in Angriff genommen. Eine breite Palette von Technologien ist dazu erforderlich, von der Wärmedämmung der Gebäude bis hin zur Bereitstellung der Energiemengen aus regenerativen Quellen. Besondere Bedeutung wird dem Strom zukommen, der einen wachsenden Anteil des Energieverbrauchs abdecken muss. Wesentliche Säulen zur nachhaltigen Stromerzeugung werden die Sonne und der Wind sein. Sie ergänzen sich besonders gut. Kommentar von Eicke R. Weber

Witnessing the Death of the Republican Party

Alexander Cockburn, Truthout: ''What we could be witnessing is the death of the Republican Party as one capable of winning a national election, since its active base are right-wing nuts of the sort Romney has been groveling to across the past months. Because seats for the US Congress are now all gerrymandered and very rarely change hands, Republicans can still command majorities in the House of Representatives, but their hopes of capturing the US Senate are now receding.''

Robert Scheer, Truthdig: ''Of course the world s people should be alarmed by the prospect of Iran, or any other nation, joining the nuclear weapons club.

If Washington can find a basis of reasonable accommodation with a bizarrely erratic and paranoid North Korea, serious negotiations with Iran should be eminently possible.''

You might say that [Jonathan] Schell, a former New Yorker staff writer renowned for his work on nuclear weapons and disarmament (his 1981 book The Fate of the Earth was a best-seller and instant classic), prophesied Occupy and the Arab Spring without even knowing it. He admits to being as surprised as anyone about the wave of nonviolent action that swept the world in 2011, but those who had read Unconquerable World would have found themselves uncannily well prepared for the birth of a planet of protest whenever it happened...

Why does America have more lawyers than the rest of the world combined? It is because the corruption has been institutionalized at every level of political life and is protected by laws and procedures created precisely to enable elites to maintain dominance over the rest of us...

The Guantanamo ''War'' Crimes Tribunal Worse than a Bush-era Horror Show

By Peter Foster

Abd al Rahim al Nashiri, was subjected to mock executions, simulated drowning by water-boarding, scrubbed with stiff brushes until his skin was raw, threatened with a revving power drill as he stood hooded and naked, kept in such filthy conditions his CIA interrogators smoked cigars to mask the stench,

Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri was tortured by the United States of America. His lawyers say so. The U.S. government has said so.

Stop Starving Public Universities and Shrinking the Middle Class

Robert Reich, Robert Reich s Blog: ''Over just the last year 41 states have cut spending for public higher education. That s on top of deep cuts in 2009 and 2010.... Rising tuition and fees are making up the shortfall.... The children of middle- and lower-income families are hardest hit. Remember: The median wage has been dropping since 2000, adjusted for inflation.''

Drone-Strike Survivors Ask, ''What Kind of Democracy Is America?''

Kathy Kelly, Voices for Creative Nonviolence: ''One question Fazillah cannot answer for her son is whether anyone asked the question at all of whether to kill his father. Forbes Magazine reports that the Air Force has sixty-five to seventy thousand analysts processing drone video surveillance; a Rand review states they actually need half again that number to properly handle the data. Asked to point to the human who actually made the decision to kill her husband, she can only point to another machine.''

Drone follies

Independent Institute
by Anthony Gregory

03/05/12

This really is the kind of state the U.S. has become: One in which there is no real expectation of privacy from the government. First they were used in wars, and then in immigration control, and now in everyday law enforcement. How many drones will fill the American skies a decade from now? Two decades? Will it seem quaint for those of us who remember when law enforcement didn t rely on such total militarization to chime in, once in a while, hearkening back to simpler days?

Mike Ludwig, Truthout: ''Rep. Ron Paul s outspoken opposition to the war on drugs and federal drug prohibition sets him far apart from his opponents in the Republican primaries and President Obama. Paul s frank libertarianism and his willingness to boldly step outside the Washington status quo has not translated to primary victories, but has earned him a legion of young followers of all political stripes who want to see a change in the Republican Party and the way government deals with drugs.''

Towards a Creditor State: One in Seven Americans Is Pursued by Debt Collectors

Matt Stoller, Naked Capitalism: ''One of the characteristics of the new social contract ushered in by both George W.

There are now thousands of people legally jailed because they aren t paying their bills, ie. debtor?s prisons have returned. Occasionally elites let it slip that this is not an accident, but is their goal.''

ESM steht für Europäischer Spekulanten-Mechanismus

Das Bundeskabinett hat am Mittwoch den sogenannten dauerhaften Euro-Rettungsschirm ESM verabschiedet. Dazu erklärt die Vorsitzende der Partei DIE LINKE, Gesine Lötzsch:

Der ESM ist der größte Rettungsschirm, der jemals von Regierungen über ein Casino aufgespannt wurde. Die Spekulanten erhalten 500 Mrd. Euro von den Steuerzahlerinnen und Steuerzahlern Europas. Die Regeln dieses Casinos werden nicht geändert. Nicht einmal auf eine Finanztransaktionssteuer konnten sich die Finanzminister der Euro-Länder einigen. Darauf haben die Lobbyisten der Finanzindustrie großen Wert gelegt. Spekulanten können weiter ungestört ihre Spielchen gegen ganze Volkswirtschaften führen und Millionen Menschen ins Unglück stürzen. Die Bundesregierung hat den zaghaften Kampf gegen die Finanzindustrie aufgegeben. Jetzt kämpft sie um so hartnäckiger gegen die Europäerinnen und Europäer, die die Finanzkrise nicht verursacht haben. Der Fiskalpakt ist ein Pakt gegen die Bürgerinnen und Bürger. Ihnen soll das Geld aus der Tasche gezogen werden, damit der Spielbetrieb in den Casinos ungestört weiter gehen kann. DIE LINKE lehnt den ESM und den Fiskalpakt ab. Beide Instrumente werden Europa nicht aus der Krise führen. Im Gegenteil, sie werden dazu führen, dass die Mehrheit der Menschen weniger in den Taschen hat und eine Minderheit sich weiter bereichern kann. Das hat nichts mehr mit sozialer Marktwirtschaft zu tun, das ist nackter Kapitalismus. Die Bundesregierung muss sofort den Kampf gegen die Finanzmafia aufnehmen oder abtreten.

Demokratie statt Fiskalpakt! Krisenlösung und Europa gehen nur ganz anders

''Frühjahr 2012. Merkel und Sarkozy eilen von Gipfel zu Gipfel, um den Euro zu retten. Der Boulevard hetzt gegen die Menschen in Griechenland. Der Kampf um die Krisenlösung spitzt sich dramatisch zu: Bis Anfang 2013 will ein autoritär-neoliberales Bündnis aus Kapitalverbänden, Finanzindustrie, EU-Kommission, deutscher Regierung und weiteren Exportländern den jüngst in Brüssel beschlossenen ?Fiskalpakt? im Schnellverfahren durch die Parlamente bringen. Der Fiskalpakt verordnet eine sozialfeindliche Sparpolitik und umfasst Strafen gegen Länder, die sich dieser Politik widersetzen. Der Fiskalpakt schränkt damit demokratische Selbstbestimmung weiter ein. Er ist vorläufiger Höhepunkt einer autoritären Entwicklung in Europa. Wir sind diese unsoziale und anti-demokratische Politik ebenso leid wie die rassistischen Attacken auf die griechische Bevölkerung. Reden wir stattdessen von den menschenverachtenden Folgen dieser Politik. Reden wir über die autoritäre Wende Europas und deutsche Niedriglöhne als Krisenursache. Reden wir vom unangetasteten Vermögen der Wenigen und dem Leid der Vielen. Reden wir von unserer Bewunderung für den Widerstand und die Solidarität in der griechischen Bevölkerung. Fordern wir das Selbstverständliche: Echte Demokratie und ein gutes Leben in Würde für alle ? in Europa und anderswo?'' Stellungnahme und Aufruf der Assoziation für kritische Gesellschaftsforschung auf der Aktionsseite http://www.demokratie-statt-fiskalpakt.org/call

Aus dem Text: ''(?) Weltweit toben Kämpfe gegen diese Politiken, vom Syntagma-Platz in Athen über den Tahrir-Platz in Kairo und den Zuccotti-Park in New York bis zur Puerta del Sol in Madrid. Die Bewegungen von Flüchtlingen und Wanderarbeiter_innen, mit denen diese die Außengrenzen Europas überqueren, sind Teil dieser Kämpfe um ein gutes Leben. Diese Kämpfe müssen grenzüberschreitend und in den ?Zentren? des autoritär-neoliberalen Bündnisses geführt werden, in Paris, Brüssel, Frankfurt und Berlin. Wir rufen deshalb zur Beteiligung an den kommenden Protesten auf, darunter der europäische Aktionstag am 31. März, der Global Day of Action am 12. Mai und die internationale Mobilisierung nach Frankfurt a.M. vom 17.-19. Mai. Wir setzen damit auf eine alternative Krisenlösung: Fiskalpakt nicht ratifizieren, das EU-Gesetzespaket zur 'Economic Governance' zurücknehmen; Staatsschulden streichen, Kapitalverkehrskontrollen einführen und Banken in öffentliche Dienstleister umwandeln; gesellschaftlichen Reichtum durch ein neues Steuersystem von oben nach unten umverteilen; mit einem sozial-ökologischen Investitionsprogramm soziale Infrastruktur ausbauen und ökologischen Umbau vorantreiben; Arbeitszeit verkürzen; Politik und Wirtschaft auf allen Ebenen radikal demokratisieren; die rassistische Politik der Grenzabschottung beenden, Bleiberecht und Papiere für alle. Gegen die autoritär-neoliberale EU der Wenigen setzen wir ein demokratisches und sozial-ökologisches Europa der Vielen!?

Schein und Sein: Euro-Rettung en passant?

Unsere rechtliche Einschätzung hat sich nicht geändert, parierte Regierungssprecher Seibert am Montag die Ergebnisse eines Gutachtens, das zu einem anderen Schluß gelangt war. Nach Auffassung des Centrums für Europäische Politik bedeute die Verabschiedung des ESM nämlich eine »Systemverschiebung der Währungsverfassung«, was nach Artikel 23 des Grundgesetzes nur mit Zweidrittelmehrheit beschlossen werden könne?''

Es basiert auf der Idee eines großen Basismarktes und Heimathafens, von dem aus Volkswagen oder Siemens, Alstom oder Telefonica, und nicht zuletzt die unbankrottbaren Finanzgiganten auf weltweite Kaperfahrt gehen können.

''Im Alleingang bestimmen wenige Regierungschefs über unsere Zukunft. Die Macht verschiebt sich, von Parlamenten zu Regierungen, von kleinen zu großen Ländern. Was Merkel und Sarkozy aushandeln, wird uns als alternativlos verkauft. Für den dauerhaften Rettungsschirm soll Deutschland bis zu 643 Milliarden Euro Kredite und Bürgschaften gewähren. Es wird ein Gouverneursrat in Luxemburg installiert, besetzt durch Finanzminister oder Beamte. Dieser Rat soll auf die Haushalte der Euro-Länder zugreifen können. Dem Rettungsschirm folgt der Fiskalvertrag, mit dem die Haushaltshoheit der Parlamente ausgehöhlt wird. Werden aber dem Bundestag Kompetenzen genommen, wird unser Wahlrecht entwertet. Wir wählen dann Abgeordnete, deren Einfluss immer geringer wird. Hier geht es um Grundsätze der Demokratie. Darüber müssen wir selbst entscheiden?''

''Nährboden für religiösen Fanatismus''

Vorabveröffentlichungen einer Studie über junge Muslime in Deutschland geben CSU-Politikern die Gelegenheit, das bewährte Stimmungspaket ''Islam, Integration, Gewaltbereitschaft'' neu zu öffnen.

Ein ungewollter Sarrazin-Effekt?

Die Studie ''Lebenswelten junger Muslime in Deutschland'' liefert deutliche Hinweise, dass die Diskussion über Sarrazins Buch Dynamiken in Gang setzte, die der Integration schaden.

Sarrazin hetzt, die NSU mordet

Zu Thilo Sarrazins heutigen Äußerungen zu jungen Muslimen in der BILD-Zeitung erklärt Christine Buchholz, Mitglied im Geschäftsführenden Vorstand der Partei DIE LINKE:

Sarrazin lügt, provoziert und hetzt in rassistischer Manier gegen Muslime. Aussagen von Sarrazin wie: ''Niemand muss in Deutschland leben, wenn er unsere kulturellen Werte nicht teilt'', sind eine Steilvorlage für Nazis. Die Morde der NSU an Migranten türkischer und griechischer Herkunft sollten uns eine Warnung sein. Rassistische Hetze ist tödlich.

Obama administration officials are escalating warnings that the U.S. could join Israel in attacking Iran if the Islamic republic doesn t dispel [manufactured] concerns that its nuclear-research program is aimed at producing weapons. Four days before Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is scheduled to arrive in Washington, Air Force Chief of Staff General Norton Schwartz told reporters that the Joint Chiefs of Staff have prepared military options to strike Iranian nuclear sites in the event of a conflict...

Iran: Scapegoat for a bankrupt empire

Future of Freedom Foundation

So, given that Iran poses no real threat to the United States and is not even a regional threat because it is dependent on exporting its oil, why are so many American politicians baying for war against the Islamic Republic? To get an answer, we should recall what H. L. Mencken said: The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary...

What Are Iran s Intentions?

Noam Chomsky, Truthout: ''One of Israel s leading strategic analysts, Zeev Maoz, in 'Defending the Holy Land,' his comprehensive analysis of Israeli security and foreign policy, concludes that 'the balance sheet of Israel s nuclear policy is decidedly negative', harmful to the state's security. He urges instead that Israel should seek a regional agreement to ban weapons of mass destruction: a WMD-free zone, called for by a 1974 UN General Assembly resolution.''

There are only two kinds of power in America: organized money and organized people

Who Stole the American Dream in Broad Daylight?

Mark Karlin, Truthout: ''Opening in New York City on March 3 at the Quad City Cinema, 'Heist: Who Stole the American Dream?' is a feature documentary about the emergence of plutocratic control of the US government. But the film is not meant to raise the white flag to accumulated wealth. In fact, it concludes that, 'There are only two kinds of power in America: organized money and organized people.'''

http://www.truth-out.org/who-stole-american-dream-broad-daylight/1330539102



Treating Sick Rich Folks

Jim Hightower, OtherWords: ''From New York to Los Angeles, hospitals that draw huge subsidies from taxpayers (and often are so overcrowded that regular patients are lucky to get a gurney in the hallway) have set aside entire floors for $2,400-a-day deluxe suites. They come with butlers, 5-star meals, marble baths, imported bed sheets, special kitchens, and other amenities for swells who have both insurance and cash to burn.''

Occupy Takes Aim at ALEC Today in 70 US Cities

Yana Kunichoff, Truthout: ''Today, legislators and companies including Pfizer, Bank of America and Walmart, that benefit from the American Legislative Exchange Council s (ALEC) power in the legislative system will be the target of demonstrations, direct actions and various public shows of anger across the country under the banner of Shut Down the Corporations. 'The public is never informed that a group representing the most privileged people in America are drafting the legislation that disempowers the most vulnerable,' said David Osborn with Occupy Portland.''

Peter Dreier, Truthout: ''C. Wright Mills, the radical Columbia University sociologist who died 50 years ... would have loved Occupy Wall Street.

At a time when social scientists and journalists were extolling America s post-World War II prosperity, Mills warned about the dangers of the growing concentration of wealth and power.''

Dangerous Pedagogy in the Age of Casino Capitalism and Religious Fundamentalism

Henry A. Giroux, Truthout: ''If educators and others are to counter global capitalism s increased ability to separate the traditional nation-state-based space of politics from the transnational reach of power, it is crucial to develop educational approaches that reject a collapse of the distinction between market liberties and civil liberties, a market economy and a market society. This suggests developing forms of critical pedagogy capable of challenging neoliberalism and other anti-democratic traditions, such as the emerging religious fundamentalism in the United States, while resurrecting a radical democratic project that provides the basis for imagining a life beyond the 'dream world' of capitalism.''

US and China caught secretly testing GMO rice on childrens

Activist Post
by Anthony Gucciardi

09/13/12

Instead of putting genetically modified foods through proper trials as consumers have been demanding for years, it appears the United States Department of Agriculture in alliance with the Chinese government have instead chosen to secretly test their latest GMO rice on young Chinese children. What s particularly interesting is the fact that the agencies decided they even needed to test the rice, after claiming that GMO rice and all other GM creations are virtually identical to natural foods...

Republicans Set Stage to Become All-Time Budget Hypocrites

Our Future
by Stan Collender

02/28/12

Congressional Republicans so far have been adamant that reductions in the projected spending assumed in the federal budget baseline for projected continuing military activities in Afghanistan must not be used to offset the cost of anything. They are not wrong in making this line-in-the-sand stand. They are, however, being astounding, perhaps even top-10 all-time, hypocrites in the process...

In an era of unrestrained federal spending and debt, one of the most ludicrous arguments made by statists is that reducing the military budget would be harmful to the economy. Their suggestion is that military spending is beneficial to the economy -- that it creates jobs. Reducing military spending, they say, would result in laying off troops and downsizing of firms that supply uniforms, guns, etc. to the military...

Republican stubbornness on military spending

Downsize DC

04/02/12

Republicans won the 2010 House elections by pledging deficit reductions and smaller government. Were they serious? After all, they undermine their own argument by refusing to make cuts in Defense Spending. This diminishes their credibility. And if we pretend they are serious about reducing the deficit, we can also see that their hard line on defense weakens their negotiating position...
