World Crisis Radio - In January 2007, Tarpley apparently left RBN and moved to Genesis, where he presented originally the Thursday edition of Genesis World Report; his slot has since moved to Saturday. The format remains as a "world intelligence roundup", quite similar to his RBN show.

Palestinians Plan 'Human Chain' Protest on Gaza Border

24-02-2008 20:47 | Anti-racism | World

The members of Hamas and the Palestinians need to pull an industrial-strength "Gandhi-style" operation with this.

Otherwise, the carnage could be horrendous, and may be so even if the planned Hamas-led protest is completely peaceful.

Arab Leaders Warn Israel Over Belligerency

24-02-2008 20:28 | Anti-racism | World

The 'peace process' has always been a way for Israel to stall for time, but maintain positive PR and the appearance of a desire for peace, while it annexes more Palestinian land.

Israel is currently plotting wars on Gaza, Lebanon, Syria and Iran. Stopping them is the only way to avert disaster.

Full Text: IAEA Report on Iran

24-02-2008 14:46 | Anti-militarism | World

The IAEA's document in full, since much of what the media says comes from relatively few sources, and misrepresents what the report says, consistent with the media's overall treatment of this issue.

Note that the only outstanding issues are those arising from accusations made by Israel and the United States, and there is no evidence thus far to back them up.

“The power of effective and dynamic prisoner support was, in my experience, never better illustrated than in the way a prison authority climbed down on this occasion, and it was an incredibly empowering experience to be a part of it.”

Hands Off Iraqi Oil - London demo

23-02-2008 23:23 | Globalisation | Iraq | Workers' Movements | World

Pics from the corporate pirates' tour of the capital on the 'Hands Off Iraqi Oil' International Day of Action, Saturday 23 February 2008.

Britain’s Guantánamo: control orders renewed, as one suspect is freed

23-02-2008 16:23 | Guantánamo | Repression | Terror War | World

Andy Worthington, author of “The Guantánamo Files,” contrasts the British government’s extension of control orders on alleged terror suspects with the case of Cerie Bullivant, whose control order was dismissed by a judge yesterday, because there was no “reasonable suspicion” that he intended to take part in terrorism.

Israel Considers a 'U.S-like' Invasion of Gaza

23-02-2008 15:50 | Anti-racism | World

Since the Brown Government's past Appeasement guarantees they will do nothing when this happens, we must make our voices heard loud and clear before this International Crime takes place.

Note that the attack on Iraq constituted 'the Supreme International Crime'.

This attack was planned long before the Annpolis Conference, which again saw Israel's ruling Extremists rejecting peace, negotiation and compromise.

Israeli Extremists STILL Trying to Start Iran War

23-02-2008 15:48 | Anti-militarism | World

How I love that word, "demand" in this article!

Now, if these sanctions are to be passed by the Security Council, which unfortunate member of the Knesset gets to make those trips to Beijing and Moscow to get China and Russia to go along with further sanctions?

No one.

Because Israel knows that Russia and China will not change their positions on further sanctions.

How this may shake out is with Israel declaring the UN "irrelevant", which they will use as a justification for unilateral action.

Israel, of course, has one little, tiny problem which is not addressed in this article

Russian officials have stated that any attack against Iran will be considered an attack against Russia.

War with Russia, anyone?

I would like to hope that the policy makers in Israel are weighing this very heavily in terms of what their next actions will be if no further UN sanctions come about.

Israel's New Plan to Attack Lebanon

23-02-2008 15:46 | Anti-militarism | World

Israel's ruling Extremists, facing increasing international condemnation and pressure to engage in talks aimed at ending its decades-long war and program of annexation, seem to be using further aggression as a way of preventing a process whereby it would be forced to give back much of what it has stolen.
