  Afghanistan: War Without End In A World Without Conscience
  Rick Rozoff
  January 27, 2011 – The largest foreign military force ever deployed in Afghanistan is now well into the tenth year of the longest and what has become the deadliest war of the 21st century. Some 154,000 occupation troops, almost two-thirds American and the rest from fifty other nations, are waging an armed conflict that has become more lethal with each succeeding year. At the beginning of this month Agence France-Presse calculated that over 10,000 people had been killed in Afghanistan in 2010…

  Video: “I Am Not A Terrorist, I Am A Child” (ORPHANS DUE TO “GERMAN/US AIRSTRIKE”)
  JTodenhoefer
  January 26, 2011 – THESE ARE THE VICTIMS AND ORPHANS FROM US/GERMAN AIRSTRIKE IN KUNDUZ, AFGHANISTAN. THESE PICTURES HAVE NEVER BEFORE BEEN RELEASED TO THE PUBLIC. Responding to a call by German forces, an American F-15E fighter jet struck two fuel tankers, killing a more than 150 people, 100 of which were civilians, mostly children. In June 2010 Germany announced it would pay $5,000 to each of the families of over 100 civilian victims, as an ex gratia payment without admitting liability. The former Afghan Commerce Minister Amin Farhang described the $5,000—as a “laughable” sum…

  Sami Jamil Jadallah – The Palestine Papers; time to bury the PLO and PA 

  28 January, 2011 — Palestine Think Tank

  For the past few days I have been spending much of my time reading the released documents on Aljazeera (http://www.transparency.aljazeera.net) and the Guardian of Manchester, watching Aljazeera and reading other publications. One thing for sure the Palestinian leadership in Ramallah is in a panic, caught with its pants down, offering different spins talking non-sense, shifting the discourse from what the papers shows to discrediting Aljazeera for publishing ‘fake documents’, ‘partial and selective’, ‘nothing new’ and accusing both Aljazeera and the ruler of Qatar of inciting the public against the Palestinian leadership and defending the indefensible, the sell out of the Palestinian people down the drain. Personally I never believed in claimed mission of the PLO, never believed in or trusted the leadership, never believed its lies about its ‘institutions’, never believed in the competency let alone the integrity of the leadership, and always believed the PLO and its leadership as criminal mafia. The PLO and the leadership squandered the lives of hundreds of thousands, and squandered tens of billions that remained unaccounted for.

  The Palestine Papers By Ali Abunimah: A dangerous shift on 1967 lines 

  28 January, 2011 — Al Jazeera

  One of the more astonishing revelations in The Palestine Papers — detailed records and minutes of the Middle East peace process leaked to Al Jazeera — is that the administration of US President Barack Obama effectively repudiated the Road Map, which has formed the basis of the “peace process” since 2003. In doing so it has backed away even from commitments made by the George W. Bush administration and blown an irreparable hole in the already threadbare “two-state solution.”

  Are We Witnessing the Start of a Global Revolution? North Africa and the Global Political Awakening, Part 1 By Andrew Gavin Marshall 

  26 January, 2011 — Global Research

  

  For the first time in human history almost all of humanity is politically activated, politically conscious and politically interactive… The resulting global political activism is generating a surge in the quest for personal dignity, cultural respect and economic opportunity in a world painfully scarred by memories of centuries-long alien colonial or imperial domination… The worldwide yearning for human dignity is the central challenge inherent in the phenomenon of global political awakening… That awakening is socially massive and politically radicalizing… The nearly universal access to radio, television and increasingly the Internet is creating a community of shared perceptions and envy that can be galvanized and channeled by demagogic political or religious passions. These energies transcend sovereign borders and pose a challenge both to existing states as well as to the existing global hierarchy, on top of which America still perches…

  Revival of a Military Option: Israel’s Covert War Against Iran Is On By Muriel Mirak-Weissbach 

  26 January, 2011 — Global Research

  After talks in Istanbul between Iran and the West on its nuclear program broke down on January 22, the danger of revival of a military option looms large. It may not come in the form of a direct, conventional US and/or Israeli strike against Iran’s nuclear installations, but rather in the guise of the warfare of the future, with cyber-weapons and terrorism. Political forces opposed to such an escalation in the Iran conflict would do well to examine the reasons why dialogue on the nuclear issue has failed thus far, and reshape their approach to dealing with the Islamic Republic.
