The real problem with the Bush years is not so much what he did but that America's political class enabled him to do it

The War Will Go On

What's Past is Prologue

By C. G. ESTABROOK

In the late summer of 2008, as the American political parties convene to produce a new president, it seems clear that Americans will continue to kill and die -- and suffer and inflict terrible injuries -- in the U.S. war in the Middle East, regardless of who is elected president, well into the next administration and beyond.

„Verwaiste Baustellen, menschenleere Fabriken, zunehmende Arbeitslosigkeit. Doch wenn in Deutschland gestreikt wird, dann geht es um Tariflöhne und -gehälter, um Arbeitszeiten und Beschäftigungsbedingungen. Dagegen wird das Thema „Politischer Streik“ in den Parteien, Institutionen, Medien und in der Öffentlichkeit tabuisiert und auch bei den Gewerkschaften unter der Decke gehalten…“ Artikel von Veit Wilhelmy in NRhZ-Online - Neue Rheinische Zeitung - Online-Flyer vom 24.06.2009 http://www.nrhz.de/flyer/beitrag.php?id=13950

Don’t worry about dependence on foreign oil

AntiWar.Com
by Ivan Eland

08/01/08

Politicians regularly turn public fear into votes. President Bush proved a master at this in his 2004 reelection success. Most presidents who don’t win the popular vote the first time don’t get a second term, but fear pushed Bush over the top in 2004. In the 2008 election, oil prices are high, and the presidential candidates from both parties are trying to get into the White House by fear mongering about U.S. dependence on foreign oil. Barack Obama and John McCain both seem to think such dependence is a bad thing, and the American public wholeheartedly agrees. Because almost everyone concurs (except many economists) on this questionable proposition, the debate on high oil prices and what to do about them degenerates from there...

Five Arrested, Dozens Detained in Pre-RNC Raids

Joe Garofoli, The San Francisco Chronicle: "Activists planning protests around the Republican National Convention say they are being targeted in a heavy-handed attempt to chill dissent after police arrested five people, detained dozens of others, and seized computers and protest guides in raids Friday night and Saturday on private homes and the major meeting center."

Pre-Emptive Strikes Against Protest at RNC

Marjorie Cohn, Truthout: "In the months leading up to the Republican National Convention, the FBI-led Minneapolis Joint Terrorist Task Force actively recruited people to infiltrate vegan groups and other leftist organizations and report back about their activities. On May 21, the Minneapolis City Pages ran a recruiting story called 'Moles Wanted.' Law enforcement sought to pre-empt lawful protest against the policies of the Bush administration during the convention."

UK: Economy at 60-year low. And it will get worse

In a candid interview in today's Guardian Weekend magazine, Darling warns that the economic times faced by Britain and the rest of the world "are arguably the worst they've been in 60 years". To deepen the sense of gloom, he adds: "And I think it's going to be more profound and long-lasting than people thought."

Fading Superpower, Rising Rivals

By Bernd Debusmann

In the Great Power game in the region, the score so far is Russia 1, US nil. Does all this mean that the oft-predicted end of America's role as the world's only superpower is near? Depends on the definition of "near". Political power grows from the barrel of a gun, as China's Mao Tse Tung observed, and the United States spends more on its armed forces than the rest of the world combined. There are more than 700 US military bases in some 130 countries.
