According to the report by its author, Brian W. Walsh, American citizens are being prosecuted in apparently increasing numbers, for what would appear to be minor infractions of law that have no real impact on our nation or our citizens. The first example provided in the article detailed how an elderly couple who had lived for a long time in their home in Spring, Texas found themselves on the wrong side of the law when federal agents executed a search warrant at their home. The couple, Kathy and George Norris were apparently shocked when the agents.....

As the flu season gets ready to kick off amidst much fanfare and predictions of doom due to a new H1N1 influenza virus, there is emerging sufficient information to raise very serious doubts whether our nation’s health authorities are truly serving the public health instead of commercial interests. Peter Doshi, while at Harvard in the mid-2000s, published a devastating study in the British Medical Journal that systematically unveils the flawed predictive science used to publicize our health agencies’ influenza statistics and mortality rates. His analysis shook up enough health authorities to warrant twelve scientists from the CDC and National Institutes of Health to unsuccessfully take him on. Now at MIT, Doshi continues his analysis of a century’s worth of influenza mortality data and government manipulation of influenza data, such as the annual figure of 36,000 influenza deaths we hear and read repeatedly.

Kampf um Deutungshoheit verschlafen

Versuche, die öffentliche Meinung zu beeinflussen, sind so alt wie die Medien selbst. So wie aufstrebende Branchen alle ihnen offen stehenden Medienkanäle nutzen, versuchen es auch eingefleischte Oligopole. Klimawandel hin oder her, das fossil-atomare Verbrennungszeitalter ist in der Defensive. Die fossilen Platzhalter versuchen jetzt auszusitzen und mit allen ihnen zur Verfügung stehenden Mitteln wieder die Initiative an sich zu reißen. Probiert wird das unter dem Banner von Schein-Innovationen, des Arbeitsplatzerhaltes, oder auch mit inszenierten Ängsten um Klimawandel oder Versorgungssicherheit. Klimawandel und Versorgungssicherheit sind aufgeblähte Schlüsselwörter im Ringen um die Deutungshoheit. Bericht von Ralph Thomas Kappler

Neue Broschüre: „Atompolitik Schwarz-Gelb“

Der Koalitionsvertrag von CDU, CSU und FDP und die Äußerungen der vergangenen Wochen lassen so gut wie alle Atom-Fragen offen. Aber was bedeutet das für die Anti-AKW-Bewegung? Um aufzuzeigen, wo Chancen liegen, haben wir eine neue Broschüre der praktischen "Hosentaschen-Format"-Reihe veröffentlicht. Das 32 Seiten starke Heft „Atompolitik Schwarz-Gelb“ erklärt, was Union und FDP tatsächlich vereinbart haben – und worauf es jetzt ankommt, um das Aus für möglichst viele Atomkraftwerke zu erzwingen. Wir wünschen dieser Broschüre große Verbreitung, damit viele Menschen neue Hoffnung schöpfen und angesichts von Schwarz-Gelb nicht resignieren. Als pdf-Dokument downloaden oder bei http://www.ausgestrahlt.de/shop/argumente-broschueren.html#c1564 bestellen.

Blood on their hands

Pro Libertate
by William Grigg

11/02/09

The federal ‘hate crimes’ measure recently signed into ‘law’ by Barack Obama will do nothing to protect innocent people from criminal violence. But thanks to the cynical pressure group politics that led to passage of that measure, thousands of innocent people will certainly die. Working with its congressional allies, the White House attached the hate crimes measure as an amendment to the most recent military spending measure, a $680 billion appropriation that contains at least $120 billion to fund the ongoing slaughter in Iraq and Afghanistan...

Melvin A. Goodman, Truthout: "The Washington Post is running scared these days with its editorial writers having great difficulty coming to terms with the possibility of improved US relations with Russia and Iran. They also can't understand why the Obama administration might decide that additional US military forces in Afghanistan will not solve the political and military problems there. There have been several editorials and op-eds this week that distort developments in each of these situations and predict failure for President Barack Obama. The fact that a 'reset' button is needed and may offer the promise of success in our relations with Russia, Iran and even Afghanistan appears to be anathema to the Post."

Watchdog: Obama's Mortgage Relief Efforts Aren't Good Enough

The Securitization Boondoggle

By Mike Whitney

The relentless financialization of the economy has resulted in a hybrid-system of credit expansion which depends on pools of loans sliced-and-diced into tranches and sold into the secondary market to yield-seeking investors. The process is called securitization and it lies at the heart of the current financial crisis.

The Uneducated American

By Paul Krugman

If you had to explain America's economic success with one word, that word would be "education." In the 19th century, America led the way in universal basic education. Then, as other nations followed suit, the "high school revolution" of the early 20th century took us to a whole new level. And in the years after World War II, America established a commanding position in higher education.

He's not attempting to bring the country kicking and screaming into the twentieth century, even after it was already one-third over, like FDR was.

Nobel Prize for Promises?

Howard Zinn, Truthout: "I was dismayed when I heard Obama was given the Nobel Peace Prize. A shock, really, to think that a president carrying on wars in two countries and launching military action in a third country (Pakistan), would be given a peace prize. But then I recalled that Woodrow Wilson, Theodore Roosevelt and Henry Kissinger had all received Nobel Peace Prizes. The Nobel Committee is famous for its superficial estimates and for its susceptibility to rhetoric and empty gestures, while ignoring blatant violations of world peace."

Dr Marc Girard, MSc, MD, France, works as a consultant for pharmaceutical firms, including manufacturers likely to have an interest in influenza pandemic.

A positive consequence of the swine flu story could be a radical reappraisal of the ferocious antagonism between vaccine promoters and antivaccinationists. This time, by dint of ignoring the basics of drug development, things went too far – and everybody may notice. It is time now to go back, to understand that vaccines are drugs amongst others, with their potential of hazards and the inherent requirement of a cautious assessment regarding their benefit/risk ratio. It is time now to stop considering that vaccines must be beneficial and that they cannot be risky. It is time to require that the elementary principles of drug development cannot be so grossly ignored as they are nowadays as far as vaccines are considered. It is time to recognize that human body is not a bin for the dangerous gadgets that, through lack of professionalism, Big Pharma develops instead of useful drugs.

9. Oktober 2009 Ulrike Zerhau

Zu den Plänen von Union und FDP zur Änderung des Arbeitsrechts erklärt die stellvertretende Vorsitzende der LINKEN Ulrike Zerhau:

Die schwarz-gelbe Koalition aus Union und FDP will reiche Privathaushalte und Arbeitgeber fördern und setzt dabei auf noch mehr Flexibilität bei den Arbeitsverträgen. So sollen angeblich in der Krise neue Jobs geschaffen werden. Übersetzt heißt dies: Wer es sich leisten kann, wird in Zukunft - staatlich gefördert - billige Putzfrauen, Kindermädchen und Haushälterinnen für sich arbeiten lassen können. Unternehmen sollen über das ohnehin schon mögliche Maß hinaus noch besser heuern und feuern können. So entstehen keine Arbeitsplätze, von denen Menschen leben können, das sind Arbeitsbedingungen von Mägden und Knechten. Besonders wird es wieder Frauen treffen, die schon jetzt die Mehrzahl der prekär Beschäftigten stellen. Erst gestern wurden bei Friseurinnen in NRW Löhne von 1,50 Euro aufgespürt. Auf solche Jobs können wir getrost verzichten. Mini-Jobs und Niedrigstlöhne helfen nicht aus der Krise: Die Betroffenen stecken in ständiger Geldnot und dem Land fehlt es weiter an Kaufkraft. Arbeit muss gewürdigt und geschützt werden! Deshalb fordert DIE LINKE einen gesetzlichen Mindestlohn, Schutz vor Entlassung und Schutz vor Erpressung durch Leiharbeitnehmerinnen und Leiharbeitnehmer. Das ist die richtige Alternative!

The conventional wisdom is that the war in Afghanistan is a ‘war of necessity’ that cannot be lost if the war against al-Qaeda is to be won. This proposition is only now being questioned because the fraud-plagued Afghan election makes a legitimate government almost impossible and because the war in Afghanistan has turned into an eight-year quagmire that is getting worse by the day. Not only is the conventional wisdom wrong, but Gen. Stanley McChrystal should be fired, even if it means losing the war...

I want it to spend my money first on fighting death. Not on war! Not on banks! Not on high speed rail!
