What The Zapatistas Can Teach Us About
 The Climate Crisis
By Jeff Conant

http://www.countercurrents.org/conant220910.htm

While political forces have conspired to make the Zapatistas largely invisible both inside Mexico and internationally, their challenge has always been to propose a paradigm of development that is both just and self-sustaining. It seems fair, then, to see if Zapatismo can shed any light on the muddle of politics around the climate crisis. Can the poetic riddles of Zapatista spokesperson Subcomandante Marcos serve as signposts on the rough road toward just climate solutions?


Fallujah, A Disgrace For The USA,
An Eternal Curse On Humanity
By Dirk Adriaensens

http://www.countercurrents.org/adriaensens220910.htm

I'd like to stress that the people of Fallujah have all the right, according to International law, to defend themselves against the illegal invasion and occupation of their city, their country. Their right to resist should be defended by all


"Good Food": A Movement, Not Just A Movie
By Carolyn Baker

http://www.countercurrents.org/baker220910.htm

In their landmark documentary "Good Food", Melissa Young and Mark Dworkin are not merely offering the viewer just a few more hundred facts about our food supply, but rather, sharing an intimate portrait of an emotional, perhaps even spiritual movement that is burgeoning in the United States in search of heartfelt connections around a fundamental human need: eating. I highly recommend viewing this documentary and sharing its message and mandate in one's local community

Israel Makes Meeting Another Arab A Crime
By Jonathan Cook

http://www.countercurrents.org/cook220910.htm

A vague security offence of "contact with a foreign agent" is being used by Israel's secret police, the Shin Bet, to lock up Arab political activists in Israel without evidence that a crime has been committed, human rights lawyers alleged this week


More Israeli-Palestinian Peace Negotiations
By Ron Forthofer

http://www.countercurrents.org/forthofer220910.htm

Will the negotiations continue after September 26th? If not, will the Palestinians again be castigated for their principled support of international law? Will some pundits repeat the oft-repeated canard that Palestinians never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity? We shall see


Both Parties Attack Public Employees
By Shamus Cooke

http://www.countercurrents.org/cooke220910.htm

States everywhere across the United States are facing the common enemy of extreme budget deficits. Many states have deficits in the multi-billion dollar realm, as the budget crises dominate the debates for the upcoming gubernatorial elections. In these debates, Republican and Democratic candidates are finding it difficult to disagree on the most essential issues around the budget crises


Kaplan University Ripping Off
Poor Students For Profit
By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman220910.htm

Business, however, is business. Kaplan makes money the old-fashioned way. They steal it from unsuspecting poor and minority students, their welfare and futures wrecked from the experience

Deepening India-US Strategic Ties:
Evidences And Repercussions
By Maj Gen S.G.Vombatkere (Retd)

http://www.countercurrents.org/vombatkere220910.htm

India-US strategic ties have their benefits but, as in the nuclear deal and the Knowledge Initiative in Agriculture, the arrangements are heavily loaded in favour of corporate USA and against India. Therefore deepening existing strategic ties in the military arena needs very careful re-consideration


Syed Ali Shah Geelani And The Movement

By Yoginder Sikand

Despite lamenting the conditions of Pakistan, which he regarded as far from satisfactory, Geelani continues to plead for Kashmir's accession to that country, even in the face of widespread and increasing disillusionment with Pakistan among many Kashmiri Muslims
