The Truth about 'Class War' in America

By Richard Wolff

Republicans claim, in Orwellian fashion, that Obama s millionaire tax is 'class war'. The reality is that the super-rich won the war.

By Glenn Greenwald

America is plagued by a two-tiered justice system in which political and financial elites enjoy virtually absolute immunity for even the most egregious of crimes, while ordinary Americans (and especially fully stigmatized ones like Padilla) are subject with few defenses to the world s largest and one of its most merciless systems of punishment.

Losing liberty for security with the Padilla case

Future of Freedom Foundation

09/20/11

The Jose Padilla case is back in the news. The 11th Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled that the 17-year sentence handed down by the presiding district judge was too lenient. The court has ordered the case remanded to the judge with instructions to consider a much higher sentence...

Amnesty International s US branch, that has championed the case, said: 'Allowing a man to be sent to death under an enormous cloud of doubt about his guilt is an outrageous affront to justice. The case against Davis unraveled long ago.'

Rumsfeld, when the Supreme Court confirmed that the AUMF also authorizes the detention of those held as a result of the president s activities...

Obama s very own War on Terror

The Nation
by Robert Dreyfuss

09/19/11

There s a lot to report on President Obama s very own War on Terror. He s not calling it that, of course. But it s spreading fast from Afghanistan to south Arabia, the Horn of Africa, and even to Nigeria and West Africa, if the testimony of the general who leads the U.S. Africa Command is to be believed. Ten years after 9/11, maybe the War on Terror really and truly will never, ever end...

Liberty For All
by James Madison

09/19/11

Of all the enemies to public liberty, war is perhaps the most to be dreaded, because it comprises and develops the germ of every other. War is the parent of armies; from these proceed debts and taxes; and armies, debts, and taxes are the known instruments for bringing the many under the domination of the few ... No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare...

According to the American media and politicians commemorating the ten-year anniversary of 9/11, the attacks at the World Trade Center and the Pentagon were a diabolical surprise attack perpetrated by Islamist terrorists against a peaceful and unsuspecting country. While many of the victims of those attacks were no doubt peaceful and unsuspecting, the same cannot be said of the U.S. government, which had long since become a superpower habituated to militarism and foreign interventionism...
