Black Man Lectures UN Delegates
On White Imperialist Foreign Policy
By Jay Janson

http://www.countercurrents.org/janson240910.htm

It's the United Nations Conference on the underachieved Millennium Goals for the formerly militarily invaded enslaved, occupied and exploited nations of the nonwhite majority of mankind. A black American president, backed by Wall Street and serving its investment bankers in cowardly and murderous wars in various innocent Muslim nations, has the balls to lecture the General Assembly on morality


Aafia Siddiqui Sentenced: A Grievous
Miscarriage Of Justice
By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman240910.htm

On September 23 in federal court, US District Court Judge Richard Berman sentenced political prisoner Aafia Siddiqui to 86 years in prison. Outrage most accurately expresses this gross miscarriage of justice, compounding what she's already endured following her March 30, 2003 abduction, imprisonment, torture, prosecution, and conviction on bogus charges


Dr. Afia Siddiqui: A Travesty Of Justice
By Abdus Sattar Ghazali

Gaza Flotilla Massacre
By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman240910A.htm

The UN Human Rights Council's (HRC) "panel of international experts" concluded what was obvious on day one - that Israel's international water attack "was unlawful and resulted in violations of human rights and international humanitarian law...."


Hush Money For HRW? George Soros
And The $100 Million "Gift"
By Thomas C. Mountain

http://www.countercurrents.org/mountain240910.htm

So why does HRW take his filthy lucre, all $100 million worth? To start with, HRW isn't the only human rights group or non governmental organization to do so. For decades now George Soros has been spreading the loot around, buying good will and keeping the inevitable criticism muted or when impossible to silence, feeble and short lived


Why Mitchell Said 'No': Hamas Is Not Ready
To Be 'Engaged'
By Ramzy Baroud

http://www.countercurrents.org/baroud240910.htm

One key difference between Hamas and its rival, the Fatah movement in the West Bank, is that Hamas is accountable to a much more complex set of priorities and expectations. While Fatah is effortlessly co-opted, Hamas remains confined by ideological standards and the stringiest political space. Although, on one hand this represents Hamas' greatest strength, on the other it shows just how truly arduous is its political undertaking


Congressional Food Fascism Legislation
By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman240910B.htm

Two earlier articles addressed corporate friendly legislation masquerading as pro-consumer. In fact, they'll destroy safe food, empower agribusiness and drug giants, and harm small farmers and consumers. Access them through the following links: This article is a brief follow-up on where things now stand, as the Senate tries to circumvent growing public opposition


Detroit: "There Is NO 'Plan'!"
By Tom Stephens

http://www.countercurrents.org/stephens240910.htm

The first of the five public meetings demonstrated how out of touch the city's official leadership is, when they didn't realize that a call for public input toward radical change would draw a thousand people or so to Greater Grace Temple. They completely failed to understand the desperation and hunger for new vision and leadership in our communities


What On Earth.....?
By Dr. Lorraine Hurley

http://www.countercurrents.org/hurley240910.htm

The last thing I want to do in exposing the bio/geo engineering threats that are a very real and present danger to us all, is send people to that Bermuda triangle of stress; fight, flight or freeze. The last thing I want to do is deter lucid, creative or effective responses to our circumstances


Conflict Renders Money Useless In Kashmir
By Bilal Hussain

http://www.countercurrents.org/hussain240910.htm

The unending unrest in Kashmir has rendered the currency worthless as it couldn't serve the very purpose of money. The currency here during these tough times couldn't be used to procure essential commodities, medical services, transportation and many other vitals for survival as there are no takers for it at this point of time due to continuing curfew and protests. Baring few days, market places in the valley remained closed for over three months now


Syed Ali Shah Geelani And The Movement
For Political Self-Determination
For Jammu And Kashmir ( Part IV)
By Yoginder Sikand

http://www.countercurrents.org/sikand240910.htm

Geelani paints a striking contrast between the 'Islamic state', on the one hand, and a secular, welfare state, on the other, bitterly denouncing the latter even if it is able to better serve and meet the secular needs of its Muslim citizens


India: In Denial In Kashmir
By Nawaz Gul Qanungo

http://www.countercurrents.org/qanungo240910.htm

That the Hurriyat sets in motion a genuine political mechanism is all the more necessary since New Delhi's policy of denial and procrastination bears an ever looming threat of a return of the gun. This is crucial even if it means taking the issue actively overseas


Kandhamal: The Real Challenges
By RL Francis

http://www.countercurrents.org/francis240910.htm

The vice chairman of National Commission for Minorities (NCM) Dr HT Sangliana giving a clean chit to Orissa government on Kandhamal violence by praising the steps taken by the state government for bringing normalcy in Phulbani district has given a blow to the Christian organisations allegations against the state government. These organisations had alleged that several thousands of the victims are yet to be rehabilitated in the effected areas of Kandhamal

http://www.countercurrents.org/azmi240910.htm

The End Of The World As We Know It In 10 Years?
By Dr. Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed

http://www.countercurrents.org/ahmed230910.htm

While we may not be able to stop various catastrophes and collapse-processes from occurring, we still retain an unprecedented opportunity to envisage an alternative vision for a new, sustainable and equitable form of post-carbon civilization.The imperative now is for communities, activists, scholars and policymakers to initiate dialogue on the contours of this vision, and pathways to it


Global Solidarity Levy Urgently Needed
By William Minter

http://www.countercurrents.org/minter230910.htm

One proposal making its way onto the agenda this year could fill a significant part of that gap. A group of 60 countries — the "Leading Group on Innovative Financing for Development" — is proposing a new fee on currency transactions they call a Global Solidarity Levy. At the proposed rate of 1/200th of 1 percent, such a "currency transaction levy" could bring in more than $30 billion a year, and potentially much more


Nuclear Winter And Peace
By Fidel Castro

http://www.countercurrents.org/castro230910.htm

The nuclear winter theory postulates that the only way to prevent the use of nuclear weapons is by eliminating them. Living in a privileged place on the planet, which allows them to enjoy the highest standards of living and the world's riches despite the their incredible waste of non-renewable resources, the American people should be the ones most interested in the information provided by the scientists. But how much time does the mass media devote to this task?


Palestinians And The 'Jewish State'
By Lamis Andoni

http://www.countercurrents.org/andoni230910.htm

If Palestinians recognised Israel as a Jewish state they would be effectively legitimising their own dispossession

Killing Palestinians With Impunity
By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman230910.htm

Protests throughout the Territories occur regularly, in Bil'in village every Friday against the Separation Wall. April 17 was typical. Soldiers attacked demonstrators with tear gas, rubber bullets, at times live fire, and extended-range gas canisters. Used against Bassem Abu Rahmeh, it killed him from massive internal injuries, a case of cold-blooded murder


Dodging World Bank Schizophrenia:
The Looting Of Africa Continues?
By Patrick Bond

http://www.countercurrents.org/bond230910.htm

Seeking a less-biased wealth accounting – i.e., by factoring in society and the environment so as to calculate a country's 'genuine savings' from year to year – we find that Africa gets progressively poorer. This was demonstrated even in the World Bank's own book, 'Where is the Wealth of Nations?', published four years ago


What Do Empires Do?
By Michael Parenti

http://www.countercurrents.org/parenti230910.htm

The purpose of all this killing is to prevent alternative, independent, self-defining nations from emerging. So the empire uses its state power to gather private wealth for its investor class. And it uses its public wealth to shore up its state power and prevent other nations from self-developing


Syed Ali Shah Geelani And The Movement
For Political Self-Determination
For Jammu and Kashmir (part III)
By Yoginder Sikand

http://www.countercurrents.org/sikand230910.htm

Even in the face of the desire for an independent state of their own on the part of probably the majority of Muslims in Jammu and Kashmir, Geelani has consistently continued to press for the state's merger with Pakistan and to vehemently oppose the demand for an independent Jammu and Kashmir
