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.

A Practical Proposal for Real Change

Freeing Up Resources... For More War

By Norman Solomon

Nationalization: It's Not Scary, It's All Around You

By David Sirota

Amidst the punditocracy's handwringing about the supposedly unprecedented possibility of nationalization in America, Paul Krugman this week reminded his New York Times readers that nationalization is "as American as apple pie."

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.
