The Bolivarian Revolution and Peace: The US Can Not break the Bonds of Brother Nations

Fidel Castro Ruz and General Joe, 22.11.2009 00:47

"It is precisely thanks to his military background that Chavez knows that the struggle against drug-trafficking is a vulgar pretext used by the United States to justify a military agreement that fully responds to the US post-cold war strategic concept of extending its world domination.

The air bases, the means, the operational rights and total impunity granted to the Yankee military and civilian personnel by Colombia in its own territory have nothing to do with fighting drug cultivation, production and trafficking. This is currently a world problem spreading not only to South American countries, but also to Africa and other regions. It already prevails in Afghanistan despite the massive presence of the Yankee troops.

Drugs should not be used as a pretext to set up bases, invade countries and bring violence, war and plundering to Third World nations. This is the worst environment to sow good qualities in the people and to bring education, healthcare and development to other nations.

Those who think that division between Venezuelans and Colombians can lead to the success of their counterrevolutionary plans are deceiving themselves. Many of the best and most humble workers in Venezuela are Colombians; the Revolution has given them and their immediate family education, healthcare, employment, the right to citizenship and other benefits. Together, Venezuelans and Colombians shall defend the great Homeland of the Liberator of the Americas; together, they shall fight for peace and freedom."



California Residents Call for Criminal Investigation of Mismanaged UC Funds and for a Roll-back of Tuition

California Reporter, 22.11.2009 00:27

There is no need for U C students to pay any tuition as this year's funding of the UC system was high enough to provide each student with a free education and keep all the teaching staff. Greedy Regents and Administrators are looting the funds and California residents want a criminal investigation.

Czech signs Lisbon Treaty/EU Dirty Deal

Astrid Essed, 21.11.2009 17:58

With the EU guarantee to the Czech president, that the Czech State should not be exposed to property claims of expelled Germans after World War II, the EU not only implicitly consents with ethnical cleansings, it is also highly hypocritical, since the EU regularly points a finger to human rights violating countries like Sudan, Myanmar and Iran
It is high time the EU should look in its own mirror, among else with regard to police abuse, racism and violation of the rights of migrants and real or alleged terrorsuspects

EUROPE: New President and Foreign Minister Choices ‘Boring’

RICHARD WHITMAN*, 21.11.2009 11:04

IDN-InDepthNews Service

LONDON (IDN) - So after almost a decade of discussing reforms to increase the effectiveness and profile of the European Union, last night it ended with the dampest of squibs. The EU Heads of State and Government have elected their own President for the first time and chosen a candidate, Mr van Rompuy, whose name has little currency outside his home country of Belgium. The member states have also chosen a High Representative, Baroness Ashton, who has no prior experience in the conduct of foreign policy either within her own country, the UK, or within the European Union.

Aiding Killer ISI

Dr.A.Prabaharan, Research Director, Public Action, 21.11.2009 07:40

None can tell the Pakistan's darling status relationship with United States. May be for strategic reasons for the past 60 years America has aided and abetted Pakistan. But for 9/11 American "strategic relationship" has been milked by Pakistan for its nefarious designs. The worst arm of Pakistan's governance - ISI is running parallel terror network to Al Qaeda which is the villain of America plot in Af-Pak. This never ending story is wreaking havoc on the sub-continent and for the global peace. To end the tragic game played by the foolish script writers of the American establishment, aid must be stopped if its use is going to kill their own people and programmes.

Poor India Bailing Out Rich America

Dr.A.Prabaharan, Research Director, Public Action, 21.11.2009 07:10

India is a poor country. America is a rich country. This age-old story is taking a beating. Today the "poor India" is bailing out busted out America. With over one lakh students contributing $3 billion to the sick American economy is first aided and looked after by the Indian students on the one hand and the fatty corporate India is acquiring the fallen mega MNCs of United States. Along with the growing clout of India students, corporate and more appointments of NRIs in the American governance, better pastures are ahead.




“Third world scenes” among Australian Aborigines

Amnesty International, 21.11.2009 00:52

"In the heart of this first world I found scenes more reminiscent of the third world. That Indigenous peoples experience human rights violations on a continent of such privilege is not merely disheartening, it is morally outrageous. The moral imperative to eradicate such poverty is no less an imperative on government than to eliminate torture."

Castro:The Latin American Peoples Will Resist The Empire!

politicaltheatrics, 20.11.2009 18:47

"What is our distinguished friend planning to discuss during his intense journey? The White House has made its solemn announcement: climate change and economic recovery; nuclear disarmament and the Afghan war; and, the risks of war in Iran and in the People’s Democratic Republic of Korea. There is plenty of material to produce a science fiction book.

But, how can Obama unravel the problems of climate change when the position of his representatives during the preparatory meetings of the Copenhagen Summit on the greenhouse effect gas emissions was the worst among those of the industrialized and rich nations, both in Bangkok and Barcelona, because the United States chose not to sign the Kyoto Protocol and the oligarchy of that country is not willing to really cooperate.

How can he contribute to the solution of the grave economic problems afflicting a large part of humanity when at the end of 2008 the total debt of the United States –including that of the federal, state and local administrations, the businesses and families—amounted to 57 trillion dollars, that is, over 400% of its GDP, and that country’s budget deficit reached almost 13% of its GDP in fiscal year 2009, an information that Obama is certainly aware of.

What can he offer Hu Jintao when his openly protectionist policies have been aimed against the Chinese exports and he is demanding at all costs that the Chinese government revaluates the Yuan, an action that would adversely impact on the growing Third World imports from China? "

4-H: Cruel to animals and kids

By Jennifer O'Connor, 20.11.2009 18:32

What does it say about society's mindset when children are encouraged to participate in a program that ultimately means the death of an animal they've befriended and whose trust they actively courted? 4-H programs teach the wrong lessons about animals—and they should have no place in our schools.



The Washington establishment suffers a serious defeat

Glenn Greenwald and General Joe, 20.11.2009 18:16

"Today was Waterloo for Fed secrecy," a victorious Grayson said afterwards.

The bill still faces substantial hurdles in becoming law, of course, but yesterday's vote has made that outcome quite possible, and it's worth noting several important points highlighted by what happened here:

(1) Our leading media outlets are capable of understanding political debates only by stuffing them into melodramatic, trite and often distracting "right v. left" storylines. While some debates fit comfortably into that framework, many do not. Anger over the Wall Street bailouts, the control by the banking industry of Congress, and the impenetrable secrecy with which the Fed conducts itself resonates across the political spectrum, as the truly bipartisan and trans-ideological vote yesterday reflects. Populist anger over elite-favoring economic policies has long been brewing on both the Right and Left (and in between), but neither political party can capitalize on it because they're both dependent upon and subservient to the same elite interests which benefit from those policies.

For that reason, many of the most consequential political conflicts are shaped far more by an "insider v. outsider" dichotomy than by a "GOP v. Democrat" or "Left v. Right" split. The pillaging of America's economic security by financial elites, with the eager assistance of the government officials who they own and who serve them, is the prime example of such a conflict. The political system as a whole — both parties' leadership — is owned and controlled by a handful of key industry interests, and anger over the fact is found across the political spectrum. Yesterday's vote is a very rare example where the true nature of political power was expressed and the petty distractions and artificial fault lines overcome.

Dying for Crooks: US Troops in Afghanistan

Ben Osmond, 20.11.2009 12:09

Karzais corruption ticket .... Transparency International reported yesterday that Afghanistan is the most corrupt nation in the world – except for Somalia. ... Heckua achievement, if the only nation on earth that is more shady is one that is full of pirates… Karzai is making Marion Barry look like Mother Teresa. ... The Washington Post reported today that one of Afghanistan’s top ministers took a $30 million bribe to give a special deal to a Chinese mining company.
The New York Times reported: “Everything seems to be for sale: public offices, access to government services, even a person’s freedom.” .... So what do Army recruiters say these days? Why in Hades would any American agree to risk his neck to prop up this band of thieves?

The trouble with the US

M Concoyle, 20.11.2009 01:47

The main problem with the US society is that it is an oligarchy. The society is based on inequality so it is a society which is engaged in class warfare, but the lower classes are tricked into fighting amongst themselves due to the control of the media by the upper class, thus it is a one sided war. The lower class is cleverly maneuvered so that, within society, they are not capable of determining “what is true?” by themselves.
