(Im)Precision of U.S Bombing and the (Under)Valuation of an Afghan Life

12-10-2008 18:58 | Anti-militarism | Anti-racism | Terror War | World

US/NATO bombs kill about ten times more Afghan civilians with a ton of our
"precision" bombs than we killed Serbs in 1999. More than 80% of Afghan
civilian deaths today caused by the US/NATO are due to close air support
attacks. They (Afghans) are only worth one-tenth of an Alaskan sea otter
rather than forty camels. We spend ten dollars on the military in
Afghanistan to pursue our geo-strategic aims and less than $1 on
reconstructing the everyday lives of Afghans devastated by thirty years of
war.

If George Bush and Barack Obama both call you crazy, you're probably in your right mind. Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad made perfectly good sense when he addressed the UN General Assembly, in New York.

Pre-election Militarization of the North American Homeland

26-09-2008 07:06 | Anti-militarism | Iraq | Repression | World

What is envisaged is the possibility of a (false flag) terrorist attack on America, which could be used as a justification for retaliatory military action in overseas as well actions on the domestic front.

It would appear that the emergency tasks helping civilians is a cover-up. This is a combat unit, which is trained and equipped to kill people.

Saving Iceland Targets International Aluminium Conference

25-09-2008 23:00 | Anti-militarism | Ecology | Globalisation | World

Today, the 11th International Conference on Aluminium Aloys (ICAA) met with angry protests. Activists from the environmentalist network Saving Iceland disrupted the proceedings at the University in Aachen, Germany. Early this morning, during one of Rio Tinto Alcan’s lectures, the fire alarms in the building were put on. Later today - again during Rio Tinto Alcan’s lecture - stink bombs were thrown and a high volume rape alarm was put on and suspended out of reach by green and black helium baloons. The auditorium was also strewn with information leaflets. The aim was to call attention to the industry’s singular involvement in ecological destruction in Iceland, as well as on a global scale.

Propaganda Is a Two-Way Street

23-09-2008 07:48 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Terror War | World

In the ceaseless and invariably bellicose calls for war (both open and clandestine) against Iran, perhaps one argument invoked by pro-war pundits and politicians stands out and takes pride of place above all others: Iran, it is claimed, "poses an existential threat to the state of Israel." It's certainly been a favorite of Republican presidential nominee, John McCain. Furthermore, Sarah Palin, McCain's running mate, when asked about America's response in the event of a unilateral Israeli military strike against Iran, repeated an astounding three times the AIPAC-by-rote reply: "I don't think that we should second-guess the measures that Israel has to take to defend themselves and for their security."

Ok I have been thinking about this since it happened. This explosion in Pakistan and its timing. When the Pakistani army is willing to fire at US forces or missles that are illegally crossing Pakistan's border. When there is an economic meltdown and the NeoCons are demanding 700 billion dollars as a bribe (oops I means a help fix solution.. no body move our your mortgage gets it between the eyes). When there is a joke of a presidential election and is laughable. And now Al Quea returns now? Something is fishing in Denmark and its not the herring.

The Destabilization of Bolivia and the "Kosovo Option"

21-09-2008 07:16 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Globalisation | World

The secession of Bolivia's Eastern provinces is part of a US sponsored covert operation, coordinated out of the US State Department, in liaison with US intelligence.

Philip S. Goldberg's mandate as US ambassador to Bolivia was to trigger the fracture of Bolivia as a country. Goldberg had been previously involved in setting the stage for the subsequent secession of Kosovo from Serbia, leading to the installation of an "independent" Kosovar government.

9/11 and the "American Inquisition"

19-09-2008 11:39 | Anti-militarism | Repression | Terror War | World

Today's "Global War on Terrorism" is a modern form of inquisition. It has
all the essential ingredients of the French and Spanish inquisitions.

Going after " Islamic terrorists", carrying out a Worldwide preemptive war
to " protect the Homeland" are used to justify a military agenda.

"The Global War on Terrorism" (GWOT) is presented as a "Clash of
Civilizations", a war between competing values and religions, when in
reality it is an outright war of conquest, guided by strategic and economic
objectives.

The GWOT is the ideological backbone of the American Empire. It defines US
military doctrine, including the preemptive use of nuclear weapons against
the "state sponsors" of terrorism.
