President Obama tries to have it both ways when talking of American foreign policy. He sold himself to the public in 2008 as a more prudential steward of U.S. power. He would avoid 'dumb wars,' as he had called the Iraq fiasco in a speech years before. He would save money by bringing the troops home from that place, and direct the resources toward the domestic fiscal mess. He would abolish torture and end the Bush-era programs of indefinite detention and Patriot Act?style surveillance. We all know that he?s disappointed many of his supporters in the realm of national security. The letters, 'N S A,' tell us all we need to know. The truth, however, is that Obama has always embraced a very active role for U.S. militarism abroad, which puts serious limits on his ability to serve as a peace president, even if he wanted to...

South American nations are jointly exploring the creation of a communications system to curtail U.S. spying in the region, Ecuadorean Foreign Minister Ricardo Patino said on Wednesday. He said the idea was to set up a common platform to 'minimize risks of being spied on' and added the project was an outgrowth of the disclosures by former U.S. National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden on U.S. spying worldwide...

If there was ever any doubt that the formerly 'Great' Britain of today has devolved into a stinkhole of authoritarianism, a proposition I advanced in a recent column, it has been dispelled by the news that the British authorities justified the detainment of David Miranda by claiming that, in transporting materials released by Edward Snowden through Heathrow airport, he was engaged in a 'terrorist' act"...

Wer arbeiten will, der findet auch Arbeit!

'Das Ausscheiden aus dem Bundestag kostet 600 Mitarbeitern der FDP den Job. Womöglich sind sie froh darüber, dass ihr alter Arbeitgeber doch nicht die Arbeitsagentur abgeschafft hat, wie er das in seiner Hochzeit mal plante. Wohin würden die jetzt arbeitslosen Ex-FDP-Mitarbeiter sonst gehen? Man kann nur hoffen, dass sich diese Leute nicht zu sehr in einer spätrömischen Dekadenz einrichten. (?) Meine Güte, für so ein Unternehmen habt ihr gearbeitet? Ist wirklich sozial, was Arbeit schafft? Auch wenn man bei Asozialen schuftet? Ich war immer der Ansicht, dass nicht jeder Arbeitsplatz erhaltenswert ist. Man sollte keine Stellen erhalten, bei denen man für ein Butterbrot arbeitet. Und man sollte keine Stellen erhalten, deren Sinngehalt es lediglich ist, dem Prekariat sogar die Butter auf dem Brot madig zu machen. (?) Bevor ich es vergesse, ihr erhaltet drei Monate kein Arbeitslosengeld. Denn eure Arbeitslosigkeit ist selbstverschuldet. Wer sich so aufführt wie ihr, wer die Eskapaden seines Dienstherrn so unterstützt, wie ihr es getan habt, der ist letztlich selbst an seiner Arbeitslosigkeit schuld?' Kommentar von Roberto J.

Die Quandts, die Intransparenz und die EU-Abgasnorm

Ein Großspende im Frühjahr anzukündigen, aber erst nach der Wahl zu überweisen - das ist unseriös und höchst fragwürdig. Auch der Zeitpunkt der Spendenankündigung bleibt wegen der Neuregelung der europäischen Abgasnorm brisant. Wir fordern die CDU auf, die Großspenden zurückzugeben.

Time to defund the Syrian rebels

Antiwar.com
by Justin Raimondo

09/27/13

In short, what the rebels have been saying, usually implicitly and under their breath, has been: send us money and arms, or else run the risk of another 9/11. In deciding to arm the rebels and call for air strikes against the Syrian regime, the Obama administration is responding to what is in effect a blackmail note. It all works out very neatly for both sides: the rebels get their guns, and the administration gets a fresh justification for the Surveillance State, because, you know, the Bad Guys really are out to get us...

Syria remains a target of the US empire

Future of Freedom Foundation
by Tim Kelly

10/01/13

The U.S. government s regime-change operation in Syria is itself an act of war and a clear violation of international law, but for the imperial schemers in Washington, it is just another day at the office. The Syrian debate was never about poison gas or the deaths of innocent civilians. Indeed, if the U.S. government really wanted to reduce the suffering in that country, it could simply cease supporting the Islamist rebels, which would bring an end to the fighting very soon...
