FLASHBACK: A Strategy for Israel in the Nineteen Eighties

05-02-2007 00:52

The following essay represents, in my opinion, the accurate and detailed plan of the present Zionist regime (of Sharon and Eitan) for the Middle East which is based on the division of the whole area into small states, and the dissolution of all the existing Arab states. I will comment on the military aspect of this plan in a concluding note.

05-02-2007 00:50

Not my first choice perhaps but a damn sight better than Blair among the typically limited 6 options.

British children - taught to HATE

04-02-2007 22:19

Kids as young as five are being exposed to a filthy, racist comic book that is full of violence, blames the Muslim world for every ill and encourages children to be ready for a life slaying the 'Mohamedan threat'. This comic is graphic, blood-spattered and filled with poison. It entices innocent minds with bingo, cheap holidays, sexual titillation, crosswords and idle celebrity gossip, and then whallops them with a load of hate.

9/11: The Case Isn't Closed

04-02-2007 20:09

Following is an article by Sander Hicks from AlterNet which has the following note from the AlterNet editor as an introduction.

The role of the alternative press is to offer perspectives that the commercial media won't touch. Having run a number of articles critical of the "9/11 Truth Movement" by Matt Taibbi, Joshua Holland, Matthew Rothschild and others, we asked Sander Hicks, a prominent voice within the movement, to share his perspective. For more of Sanders' views, see his book "The Big Wedding: 9/11, The Whistle-Blowers, and the Cover-Up."

The article on AlterNet, predictably, has a lot of comments…

Bush, Dems Work Together to Kill Iraqis, Iranians

04-02-2007 18:39

It is a “political pilgrimage” that sends an incisive, unambiguous message: Bush’s neocons will work with the Democrats, not only on “U.S. energy self-sufficiency, global warming, economic competitiveness and immigration,” but also on the mass murder “surge” in Iraq and, soon enough, Iran.
