David Lightman, McClatchy Newspapers: "Republicans are expected to deliver a daylong rant Wednesday against Democratic spending legislation, yet the bill is loaded with thousands of pet projects that Republican lawmakers inserted. Rep. Ralph Hall, R-Texas, included $142,500 for emergency repairs to the Sam Rayburn Library and Museum in Austin, Texas. Sen. John Ensign, R-Nev., joined state colleagues to include $1.425 million for Nevada 'statewide bus facilities.' The top two Republicans on Congress' money committees also inserted local projects."

The Oscar for Denial

And the winner is - The American People

By James McEnteer

"We know, deep inside us we know--[just] as the Germans who kept their heads down and tried to lead 'normal' lives as genocide exploded all around them, in their name, by their own government knew--that our government has committed terrible atrocities at home and abroad. If we do nothing to bring these crimes to light and their perpetrators to justice, then we are as guilty and worthy of moral condemnation as the war generation of silent Germans ..."

Freeing Up Resources... For More War

By Norman Solomon

In his first speech to Congress, the new president threw down a 90-month-old gauntlet, reaffirming the notion that committing to war halfway around the world -- in Afghanistan and now in Pakistan too -- will make Americans safer. With drumrolls like that, the mission could outlive all of us.

A Planet at the Brink

Will Economic Brushfires Prove Too Virulent to Contain?

By Michael T. Klare

The global economic meltdown has already caused bank failures, bankruptcies, plant closings, and foreclosures and will, in the coming year, leave many tens of millions unemployed across the planet. But another perilous consequence of the crash of 2008 has only recently made its appearance: increased civil unrest and ethnic strife. Someday, perhaps, war may follow.

Root for America
by Wayne Allyn Root

02/24/09

Fed chief Ben Bernanke testified a year ago (April of 2008) before Congress and said that America was not yet in recession and might still avoid it. He called our economic crisis at the time a ‘contraction.’ Interesting choice of words. At the time, I was so shocked and outraged at those comments that I wrote a commentary ripping Bernanke to shreds. I felt he was either a fool or a liar. Well the more things change, the more they stay the same. Earlier today Ben Bernanke told Congress that the recession will end this year. THIS YEAR. Really? You could have fooled me. So the man who didn’t even know we were in a recession last April, now thinks he can read the future?

The shocking collapse of our financial system should have taught us an important lesson about the structure of our economy, heavily-dependent on consumption expenditures paid for with borrowed dollars. When the flood of borrowed dollars abruptly stopped, the over-inflated housing market collapsed and other markets followed with frightening speed. The lesson should have been that you can’t just keep on borrowing forever, spending lots of money that you don’t have. Instead we seem to have learned the opposite — that we just need to find fresh piles of money to keep the whole thing going. As my friend Jim Pfaff noted at his anti-stimulus rally in Denver last Tuesday, this is Madoff-nomics, writ large...

During the Bush era, our international standing took a huge hit, with millions wondering what crazed act of aggression was going to come out of Washington next. Our militaristic foreign policy has alienated our friends while multiplying and emboldening our enemies. To listen to Andrei Illarionov tell it, however, we don’t have enough enemies. One more needs to be added to the list, and that is Russia. Illarionov is a Russian citizen, formerly a top economic adviser to then-President Vladimir Putin, and a senior fellow at the ostensibly libertarian (and anti-interventionist) Cato Institute...

Das Brüsseler Hauptquartier der NATO erwartet beim Treffen zum 60. Geburtstag des Atlantischen Bündnisses angeblich "fundamentale Auseinandersetzungen" zwischen seinen Mitgliedern. "Die Turbulenzen sind vorprogrammiert. Sie werden heftig ausfallen", sagte ein hoher Vertreter der NATO am Wochenende in Brüssel. Die NATO müsse wegen der gefährlichen Lage besonders in Afghanistan "völlig neue Wege gehen". Wie die Beratungen der 26 Mitgliedstaaten am 3. und 4. April in Baden-Baden und Straßburg "ausgehen werden, steht in den Sternen". Es sei durchaus möglich, "dass es zu einem großen Krach kommt", so die bemerkenswerte Ankündigung der NATO. Offenbar geht es darum, dass die USA die Europäer zu einer noch stärkeren Beteiligung an Kriegen in aller Welt und insbesondere in Afghanistan drängen wollen.

Von den 500 Millionen Euro aus dem Konjunkturprogramm II, die die Bundeswehr erhalten wird, sollen den Angaben zufolge "zu einem großen Teil" Waffen gekauft werden.

NEW fears about the proposed incinerator chimney for St Dennis have come to light.

Residents are not just concerned about pollution – they are now worried about the stack being turned into a giant phone mast.

The matter was discussed by Cornwall County Council on February 10 after concerns were raised that if the incinerator gets the go-ahead, it could encourage plans for mobile phone transmitters attached to the chimney.

Leiharbeit: Eingesetzt wie Tagelöhner. Gewerkschaftsbund beklagt Zustände bei der Leiharbeit - die Bedingungen sind hierzulande am schlechtesten in ganz Europa.

„Leiharbeitsfirmen in Deutschland prellen Mitarbeiter um Löhne, Urlaubsansprüche und die Lohnfortzahlung im Krankheitsfall. Dies geht aus einer Stellungnahme des Deutschen Gewerkschaftsbundes (DGB) zum geplanten Leiharbeitsbericht der Bundesregierung hervor. Dieser wird frühestens im Sommer 2009 vorliegen. Nach Angaben des DGB sind die Bedingungen für Leiharbeiter hierzulande am schlechtesten in ganz Europa. "Um im Wettbewerb um Aufträge bestehen zu können, müssen auch vermeintlich seriöse Verleiher gegen tarifliche und gesetzliche Bestimmungen verstoßen", heißt es in der Stellungnahme, die der Süddeutschen Zeitung vorliegt.

Selbstverständlich können wir Initiatoren als selbst von Leiharbeit Betroffene keine professionelle Rechtshilfe anbieten, wohl aber aus unserer eigenen Erfahrung heraus je nach Situation beurteilen, wann ein Beschwerdebrief oder die Beauftragung eines Anwalts sinnvoll sein könnte. Neben den in den Foren Chefduzen und Zoom(IG-Metall) diskutierten Themen zur Leiharbeit wollen wir uns auch mit hoffentlich neuen Interessierten darüber auseinandersetzen, unter welchen Vorraussetzungen wir uns als Leiharbeiter (DGB-)gewerkschaftsunabhängig positionieren können…“ Vorstellung der neuen Anti-Zeitarbeits-Initive Düsseldorf bei chefduzen http://www.chefduzen.de/index.php?topic=17536.0

Das Märchen. Überlegungen zum Green New Deal im Angesicht der (grünen) Krise

Artikel von Tadzio Müller und Alexis Passadakis in ak - analyse & kritik - zeitung für linke Debatte und Praxis vom 20.2.2009 http://www.akweb.de/ak_s/ak536/36.htm

Aus dem Text: „…Bei genauerem Hinschauen stellt sich aber heraus, dass der auf den ersten Blick so schöne Vorschlag auf zwei intellektuellen Taschenspielertricks beruht. Das Ziel ist es, die strukturellen Widersprüche des Kapitalismus auszublenden, um mal wieder das alte Märchen von einem Kapitalismus erzählen zu können, in dem alle - AusbeuterInnen und Ausgebeutete, "Mensch" und "Natur", Fuchs und Hase - friedlich miteinander koexistieren können. (…) Ein Green New Deal, der technokratisch und von sozialen Bewegungen abgekoppelt implementiert wird, wird eben das sein: technokratisch. Darüber hinaus unter Umständen autoritär, denn ohne eine starke ArbeiterInnenbewegung, die hohe Löhne erzwingen kann, werden diese niedrig bleiben, während Lebenshaltungskosten (vor allem Energie- und Nahrungsmittelpreise) steigen werden. Niedrige Löhne bei steigenden Kosten heißt mehr Armut und Unzufriedenheit, heißt mehr soziale Unruhe, heißt mehr staatliche Repression. Und eine derartige autoritäre Politik lässt sich viel leichter im Zeichen des Schutzes "der Natur" machen als im Namen des Kampfes gegen den Terrorismus…“

President Obama has promised to post legislation online for public viewing before he signs it. However, the very first bill he signed, which expands the right to sue over alleged pay discrimination, was not posted online. An administration spokesman alluded to mysterious difficulties preventing this. Apparently, one is not allowed to be transparent about the obstacles to transparency. Okay, so maybe it just slipped through the cracks. But what more urgent test can there be of the president’s commitment to transparency than the trillion-dollar ’stimulus’ spending package Obama is touting?

This week the Federal Reserve responded to the American people’s increased concerns over our monetary policy by presenting new initiatives aimed at enhancing the Fed’s transparency and accountability. As someone who has called for more openness from the Fed for over 30 years, I was pleased to see the Fed acknowledge the legitimacy of this need. The Federal Reserve controls the flow of money and credit in our economy because Congress has abdicated its responsibility over the nation’s currency. This process therefore occurs centrally, and almost completely outside the system of checks and balances...

While it is perilous for any historian to predict the future, we may well be headed for the Waterloo of Keynesianism (both military and domestic) and that is a good thing. Crudely put, Keynesianism (so named for the British economist John Maynard Keynes) is the theory that government’s can speed long-term recovery by running high deficts so as to stimulate aggregate demand or investment. It is the entire basis of Obama’s stimulus plan. To some extent, Keynesian ideas were the basis of Bush’s massive bailout and big spending policies, most especially his now forgotten ’stimulus checks.’ The popularity of the Keynesian theory is something a puzzle (at least to me). Few ideas more defy ordinary common sense...

We need a game-changing relationship with the planet. Our current relationship is not working, either for us or for the planet. We are on track to heat up the earth 10 degrees Fahrenheit by the end of this century as a result of burning fossil fuels. Drought will prevail in many regions. The rising sea level will displace tens of millions of people around the world. Wars will be fought over water, not oil, because there won’t be any oil. Our current economic crisis will pale in comparison with what we are queuing up for our children. The good news is that it doesn’t have to play out this way. But to avoid this scenario, we need a new paradigm. Global warming is not the issue of our time. Sustainability is the issue...

Just one week after President Obama signed a stimulus package designed to give a short-term boost to the economy, some of the nation’s top budget analysts plan to deliver a stark warning today at a White House summit that an even more foreboding long-term crisis will unfold unless Obama quickly fixes Social Security, healthcare, the tax code and more. While the $787 billion stimulus plan relies on tax cuts and increased spending, the list of problems to be addressed at the ‘Fiscal Responsibility Summit’ could result in a series of painful political decisions that might eventually include tax increases and cuts in government benefits. And although the stimulus package was passed almost entirely by Democrats, any significant changes on taxes and entitlements are considered unlikely without bipartisan support...

ISIS Press Release 23/02/09

Biosafety refers to ensuring that GMO’s do not harm the environment or health.

The soil, its fertility, and the organisms which maintain the fertility of soil are a vital aspect of the environment, especially in the context of food and agricultural production.

A recent scientific study carried out by Navdanya, compared the soil of fields where Bt-cotton had been planted for 3 years with adjoining fields with non GMO cotton or other crops. The region covered included Nagpur, Amravati and Wardha of Vidharbha which accounts for highest GMO cotton planting in India, and the highest rate of farmers suicides (4000 per year).

In 3 years, Bt-cotton has reduced the population of Actinomycetes by 17%. Actinomycetes are vital for breaking down cellulose and creating humus.

Bacteria were reduced by 14%. The total microbial biomass was reduced by 8.9%.

Vital soil beneficial enzymes which make nutrients available to plants have also been drastically reduced. Acid Phosphatase which contributes to uptake of phosphates was reduced by 26.6%. Nitrogenase enzymes which help fix nitrogen were reduced by 22.6%.

At this rate, in a decade of planting with GM cotton, or any GM crop with Bt genes in it, could lead to total destruction of soil organisms, leaving dead soil unable to produce food.

The US government under Bush spent close to one trillion dollars, and now the Obama administration is promising to spend trillions in the years to come to stimulate the economy. With official US debt now close to 11 trillion dollars and climbing fast, the situation is becoming untenable. According to treasurydirect.gov, last year (2008) US government paid $451 billion dollars interest on its debt. Add to this the Medicare and social security obligations and suddenly things look a lot worse than they appear.

Economic Freefall

A Blessing in Disguise

One thing we should not overlook when taking in the impact of the current economic situation is that it is both inevitable and invaluable in equal measure. That there was no escaping the consequences we are now facing has been a well known fact among those in the know for many years. If anything, it is amazing that we have staved it off for so long. For this we have the hard working men and women of the real world to thank, who toiled on in the name of pride, dignity and responsibility until the burden of debt simply became to great to bear.

A British resident, once accused of plotting with Al Qaeda to detonate a radiological ‘dirty bomb,’ is a free man and is now calling for an investigation into his alleged torture at the behest of the US government. Binyam Mohamed was released from a cell at the Guantánamo terror prison camp in Cuba early Monday, where he had been held since September 2004. He was flown by private jet to a British military base near London, where he met with his legal team and doctors. ‘I am not asking for vengeance; only that the truth should be made known, so that nobody in the future should have to endure what I have endured,’ Mr. Mohamed said in a statement released through his lawyers...
