Top Secret: There may be times when host country governments show passivity or indecision in the face of [Taliban/AlQaeeda] subversion ... US Army Intelligence must have the means of launching special operations which will convince host country governments and public opinion of the reality of the insurgent danger ...

U.S. and NATO to wage 15-year war in Afghanistan and Pakistan

07-10-2010 20:31 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Globalisation | World

October 7 will mark the advent of the tenth year of the war waged by Washington in South Asia, the longest continuous combat operations in U.S. history. By invoking its Article 5 collective military assistance clause on September 12, 2001, NATO also joined the war effort and officially took over the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) in August of 2003. Not only are American and NATO military forces not leaving Afghanistan in the foreseeable future, they are expanding their nine-year-old war into Pakistan.

Report of actions during the No Border

07-10-2010 19:30 | Anti-racism | World

The No Border camp in Brussels has been subject to harsh punishment, this repression prevented the majority of public actions (such as Wednesday and Friday demos or the "game-action" on Thursday) and a lot of others. Despite this repression and the violence in the police stations, a few actions took place during the week. This is an attempt to list it... To be completed?

Criminality of nuclear deterrence - World at the precipice of another world war

07-10-2010 09:35 | Anti-militarism | Globalisation | Social Struggles | World

Today the world is at a precipice of another world war. The United States government has committed acts of aggression against Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Somalia, Yemen, and has authorized, armed, equipped, and supplied Israel to commit acts of aggression, crimes against humanity, and outright genocide against Lebanon and Palestine. Today the United States government is threatening to attack Iran under the completely bogus pretext that they might have a nuclear weapon, which the International Atomic Energy has said is simply not true. If they attack Iran with the Israelis, a British think-tank has predicted they could exterminate 2.8 million Iranians! They are fully prepared -- the Americans and the Israelis -- to use tactical nuclear weapons.

It is the government officials in the nuclear weapons states and their allied states that are disobeying international law. Every person around the world has a basic human right to be free from the criminal practice of nuclear deterrence/nuclear terrorism, and its specter of nuclear extinction. All human beings in our capacities as creatures of God possess the basic right under international law to engage in civil resistance for the purpose of preventing, impeding or terminating the ongoing commission of these international crimes.

Yemen: The covert apparatus of the American Empire

06-10-2010 20:42 | Anti-militarism | Globalisation | History | World

This essay examines the American war in Yemen as a war of empire, as a war against the rising tide of people’s movements and the “global political awakening” that is taking place around the world.

Yemen is perhaps an excellent example of America being on the “wrong side of a world revolution,” as the secret war in Yemen being exacerbated in the name of “fighting al-Qaeda” is in actuality, about the expansion and supremacy of American power in the region. It is about the suppression of natural democratic, local, revolutionary elements throughout the country seeking self-autonomy in changing the nation from its current despotic, authoritarian rule sympathetic to American interests, into a nation of their own choosing. It is about repressing struggles for liberation.

When Bad Faith Moves Mountains - Manifesta goes to Limburg

06-10-2010 19:43 | Culture | Liverpool | World

The mediatisation of an event always removes some of its visibility, just as they say that the mode of production of a commodity always disappears.
Similarly, Manifesta, the quintessential European biennial, is preparing to embark upon its eighth and latest exhibition effort in Murcia, in the south of Spain, in October. But it is common knowledge that Manifesta is a sort of phoenix that comes to an end in one place only to come back to life again in another.
After working on the frontiers between Spain and North Africa, Manifesta is already prepared for its return to the heart of Europe, to investigate the notion of “Europeanism” in the Limburg region: in the very Euroregion it has always favoured. Holland, Luxembourg, and Germany have all been venues for the event, and now it is the turn of Belgium, in a geopolitical hub that recalls the ECSC more than the new EU.

FBI Raids Activists' Homes in Sinister COINTELPRO Replay

05-10-2010 16:35 | Anti-militarism | Repression | Social Struggles | World

"With Friday's raids, the federal government under "change" huckster Barack Obama, has taken their repressive program to a whole new level, threatening activists with the specter of being charged with providing "material support of terrorism." A felony conviction under this draconian federal law (Title 18, Part I, Chapter 113B, § 2339B) carries a 15 year prison term."
