Smith | Clinton and Obama each maintain that if elected they will immediately take steps to end the war in Iraq. But there is good reason to look at the fine print of their programs very carefully. Neither will end it quickly nor bring all the troops home. Full Story 0 Comments 13 organizations demand Waldorf-Astoria cancel "Friends of IDF" fundraiser
Adalah-NY | As thirteen organizations working for human rights, social justice, and peace, we demand that The Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in Manhattan rescind its agreement to host the March 18 fundraiser for “Friends of the Israel Defense Forces.” The Israeli military has been historically a flagrant violator of human rights and international law as demonstrated by last week’s attack on Gaza which killed over 100 Palestinians, the 2006 attack on Lebanon, and the 60-year assault on and dispossession of the Palestinian people. Bush and Uribe v. Chavez and Correa Stephen Lendman | The latest made in USA regional mischief. Full Story 0 Comments Political satire: Pakistan prime ministerial candidate denies he is Christian Shreeram Krishnaswami | Jabil Bush Hussein is outraged. Despite repeated denials by the PDP (Pakistan Democratic Party) leader and candidate for prime minister, rumors that he is or once was a Christian continue to gather momentum. Hussein’s campaign aides have emphasized his strong Muslim beliefs and downplayed any Christian connection. Spokesman Nouri Aswari issued a statement yesterday reiterating that “Husssein has never been a Christian, was not raised as a Christian, and is a committed Muslim." Full Story 1 Comments "Why the US has really gone broke" by Chalmers Johnson Chalmers Johnson | "It's not just that our tastes for foreign goods, including imported oil, exceed our ability to pay for them. We are financing them through massive borrowing. Our short tenure as the world's lone superpower has come to an end." Full Story 0 Comments "The Three Trillion Dollar War" by Joseph Stiglitz and Linda Bilmes Joseph Stiglitz and Linda Bilmes | "The Bush administration was wrong about the benefits of the war and it was wrong about the costs of the war. Deficit spending gives the illusion that the laws of economics can be repealed, that we can have guns and butter. The costs of the war are real, even if they have been deferred, possibly to another generation." Full Story 2 Comments In Ha'aretz interview Leviev "spins" protests against his companies' settlements
Adalah-NY | Issa Mikel, a spokesperson for Adalah-NY - the group that has organized eight protests outside Leviev’s Manhattan jewelry store since it opened last November - commented, “Leviev’s responses were disingenuous and troubling. Leviev neglected to mention that his company Leader is building the settlement of Zufim, that he is a major donor to a company that acquires Palestinian land for settlements, and that all Israeli settlements violate international law. Leviev also portrayed his company’s monopoly over Gaza’s fuel supply as somehow charitable. Finally, as independent human rights activists, we challenge Leviev to provide evidence to support the completely false accusation he made that we have any relationship with or are “funded by business competitors.” Ron Paul | "Mr. Speaker: I rise in opposition to H. Res. 951, a resolution to condemn Palestinian rocket attacks on Israeli civilians. As one who is consistently against war and violence, I obviously do not support the firing of rockets indiscriminately into civilian populations. I believe it is appalling that Palestinians are firing rockets that harm innocent Israelis, just as I believe it is appalling that Israel fires missiles into Palestinian areas where children and other non-combatants are killed and injured."
