"United Against Nuclear Iran": America's war propaganda mouthpiece
20-09-2010 11:30
UANI has compiled an elaborate list of the foreign companies and firms which do business with Iran and calls on its readers and visitors to send condemnatory letters and complaints to these companies so as to persuade them to withdraw their capitals and resources from Iran and stop doing business with a country which the United States and its European allies consider to be an emerging nuclear threat in the Middle East.
In a nutshell, UANI's objective is to impair the Iranian nation. They already know that Iran does not seek nuclear weapons. UANI's seeks a weak, demoralized and unstable Iran without an active role in the international community. UANI is not United Against Nuclear Iran, it is United Against the Nation of Iran.
FLASHBACK: Dialog Among Civilizations – Whytalksfail When Hectoring Hegemon Are
20-09-2010 05:48
What is the point of this dialog analysis and all this verbage?The point is a matter of life and death for nations. That is the point of this. Let me be very precise.
Either the United States, or Israel, are poised to attack Iran, as noted by many commentators in the World press,...
This is March 2007. I have two imperatives before me: A) I do not wish to hear in 2010 that there was an “intelligence failure”, that it was another Gulf of Tonkin, or some other new contrivance from the imaginative and fertile mind of the hectoring hegemons.

911 and Imperial Mobilization Redux By Zahir Ebrahim

Please circulate — 911 and Imperial Mobilization Redux
Hello – Please circulate my newest exposition geared towards the mainstream ‘United We Stand’ crowd who know something is wrong with this 9 year long 'war on terror', but can’t put their finger on it, and also don’t wish to tread into the ‘conspiracy’ jungle where only forensic knowledge and deep intelligence lurks. It has always been a problem how to explain complex matters to the “crowd of simpletons and the credulous” (Mein Kampf). The war-mongers use incessant propaganda to get them to ‘United We Stand’. How can one undo that? Ignoring the ‘Uncle Toms’ and the co-opted, here is my commonsensical Socratic attempt to (once again) try and reach the vast majority of good peoples worldwide who trusted their government to represent the public's interests and not the hectoring hegemons':

Real versus fake crises: Concealing the risk of an all out nuclear war
17-09-2010 09:42
The details of ongoing war preparations in relation to Iran have been withheld from the public eye.The media is involved in acts of camouflage.
The devastating impacts of a nuclear war are either trivialized or not mentioned. Meanwhile, public opinion has its eyes riveted on what might described as "fake crises".
The fear campaign underlying a fake crisis is intended to obfuscate the real crisis --including the danger of nuclear war-- as well as disarm all forms of meaningful resistance and opposition.

Obama's letter to Lula exposes US dishonesty with Iran: Lest we forget
15-09-2010 09:57
"The contradiction between President Obama's letter to President Lula and the US response to the Brazil-Iran-Turkey offer is the latest evidence that the US does not intend to negotiate with Iran in good faith and has hidden motives. Under pressure from the same neoconservatives and Israel lobby that pushed the Bush Administration to invade Iraq illegally, the Obama Administration is inventing excuses to avoid a peaceful resolution to the stand-off with Iran."Obama's letter to Lula exposes US dishonesty with Iran."

9/11 Truth and "Global War on Terror": Pretext to wage war is totally fabricated
14-09-2010 12:54
Concurrently, a fake anti-war activism emerged in the wake of 9/11 which broadly consisted in stating: "I am against the war but I support the war on terrorism". Meanwhile, several NGOs became actively involved in humanitarian projects in Afghanistan, in close liaison with USAID and the Pentagon.
This acceptance of the "war on terrorism" was in large part based on the acceptance of the official 9/11 narrative, namely that the US was under attack, that the 9/11 attacks were perpetrated by Muslims, that the Taliban were protecting Al Qaeda and providing refuge to its illusive leader Osama bin Laden.
Ironically, many "Progressives" in America not only accepted the official 9/11 narrative, they were also involved in smearing the 9/11 Truth Movement. By slurring those who questioned the official 9/11 story (backed by carefully researched evidence and analysis), they (unwittingly) provided legitimacy to the bombing and invasion of Afghanistan, Iraq, the Palestinian occupied territories as well as the targeting of Iran, as part of the "Global War on Terror" GWOT).
Squat / Convergence Space for the Tory Party Conference demos?
14-09-2010 09:01
Just wondering if there are any squats?In Memory of that Day: Website Wikileaks publishes '9/11 messages'
13-09-2010 20:31
"The attacks on 11 September 2001 left nearly 3,000 people dead.The messages are being published over a 24-hour period, ending at 0800GMT on Thursday. They are being released simultaneously on Wikileaks and social networking site Twitter.
'Live' broadcast The website is broadcasting each message at the time it was sent originally in 2001.
The first message was from 0300 local time (0800 GMT), five hours before the first attack in New York and the last 24 hours later.
The messages are not all about the attacks. Some are mundane questions about what people are having for lunch.
However, many are about the deadly plane attacks and range from people trying to find out if their loved ones are safe, to government messages, to computer server errors.
They include messages such as
"This is Myrna, I will not rest until you get home, the second tower is down, I don't want to have to keep calling you after every event. Pls just go home
President has been rerouted won't be returning to Washington but not sure where he will go
Bomb detonated in World Trade Ctr. Pls get back to Mike Brady w/a quick assessment of your areas and contact us if anything is needed."
