Rethinking America’s Fourth of July as Outdependence Day
By Ben Tanosborn   
Malpracticers of Economic and Foreign Policy

About this time every year I grow a bit philosophical, and melancholic, as we celebrate what this country should be… but isn’t.  Last year, my written words called for a second American revolution, and the year before I underlined the belated realization that the US is not us (the people).

Normal Times That Never Were
By Ben Tanosborn   
Illusory return to economic normalcy

“Everything would be ok if it weren’t for that CNN scaring us out of our wits, giving us all those stories and commentary on the recession and presumed bad economy,” was the statement someone made at the table as we were having breakfast at a delightful B&B of the most charming Victorian-accented town in Washington State: Port Townsend.

No, Idiot... Capitalism is Not Democracy!
By Ben Tanosborn   
Regulating Predatory Capitalism in America

No, it wasn’t the first time that I heard, or read, the plagiarization of a famous phrase by means of word replacement.  But yesterday’s ill-appropriation by an inexpert-expert guest of CNBC stood vividly for the remarkable ignorance this nation is all about; and how that television station, for the most part, promotes such ignorance and cheerleads fake growth to the catchy music of predatory capitalism.

Churchill’s Bengali Holocaust
By Gideon Polya   
Inadvertent confessions of Britain's #1 war criminal

History ignored yields history repeated. Mainstream media that ignore the 9-11 million excess deaths so far in the Bush (now Obama) wars also ignore how in 1943-1945 the British under Winston Churchill deliberately starved 6-7 million Indians to death in what was described in India at the time as a Bengali Holocaust.

Agent Orange Continues to Poison Vietnam
By Marjorie Cohn   

From 1961 to 1971, the U.S. military sprayed Vietnam with Agent Orange, which contained large quantities of Dioxin, in order to defoliate the trees for military objectives. Dioxin is one of the most dangerous chemicals known to man. It has been recognized by the World Health Organization as a carcinogen (causes cancer) and by the American Academy of Medicine as a teratogen (causes birth defects). FULL STORY...

Valediction, disquisition and contradiction
By Ben Tanosborn   
Attractive new covers for the same old book

Few speeches during the past decade have been so eagerly awaited as was Obama’s address in Cairo last Thursday, June 4th.  And few speeches have received such wide and far review during these early days of the millennium. FULL STORY...

Beyond The Soaring Rhetoric of Obama's Cairo Speech
By Phil Rockstroh   
A Toxic Innocence At Home

Even as President Barrack Obama waxed eloquent in Cairo, Egypt, on the moral imperatives of the community of nations, public opinion polls released in the United States revealed that, by a substantial percentage, its citizens believe torture is an acceptable option for interrogation of suspects deemed terrorists by various US governmental agencies.

Stealth Strategy in Cairo
By William Cook   
Severing the Bonds that Shackle

Consider the potential consequences of Obama’s speech in Cairo last week. Set aside the complaint that he offered no actions to correct the crisis; ignore the fact that he did not repudiate the absolute bond that tethers United States policy to that of Israel; avoid his silence regarding the racist urgings of Lieberman and the arrogance of Netanyahu as they dictated foreign policy for the U.S...

Obama’s Speech to Muslim World
By Gideon Polya   
Zionist Spin & Orwellian Holocaust Denial

President Barack Hussein Obama (BHO) has made a pro-Zionist motherhood speech to the Muslim World that ignored horrendous US Alliance crimes, implied (like George Orwell’s Big Brother) that ongoing war is peace and offered a Palestinian State when Apartheid Israel agrees to it. FULL STORY...

The Truth Shall Set You Free...
By Bob Boldt   

I resolved not to weigh in on the George Tiller murder.  All Monday night and into Tuesday morning the dominos kept falling in my mind.  So many connections were being made to this event that finally I had to drag my butt to the computer and begin to type these words. FULL STORY...
