Nobel Peace Prize winner Barack Obama has decided to send close to 40,000 more troops into Afghanistan over the course of 2010, according to insiders.
Obama is a sociopath, but that shouldn't shock. He's a U.S. President, and Commander-in-Chief of the largest, most lethal arsenal in history, which could destroy the world many times over, and, which has a budget many times the size of the next 10 national military budgets combined.
Ipso facto, he's a sociopath. But, it's nothing personal.
Islamic fundamentalist militants are the enemies of Israel and Western governments, right? Think again. Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed reports.

It would be a step in the right direction if everyone interested in radical politics were to read the essay "I Am Indigenist" by Ward Churchill. At this time the vast majority of non-indigenous activists, social critics, and revolutionary organizations (with a few notable exceptions) still act with little regard to the worlds indigenous populations. This situation MUST change if we hope to build true and lasting justice, anywhere. Even if you are unable to attend an upcoming study group discussion on this important essay, we urge you to find the time to read and consider it.
An administration that shall not enter into any compromises with Gloria Macapagal Arroyo (GMA), her family and her cronies. A government that shall commit to reverse the political and economic damages wrought by the Arroyo administration. A political leadership that shall use its authority and shall exercise political will to introduce basic reforms that would restore our faith in our own capacity to lead decent and honorable lives.

Global trade fell 30 percent three years after the crash. The US gross domestic product shriveled 40 percent. In 1932, every fourth American was without a job. In Germany, industry only produced half of what was produced three years before. Keynes recommended state economic programs and called into question the theory of self-regulating markets.

Several local activists today concluded their 4 day fast for climate justice. Their actions were in solidarity with the global Climate Justice Fast movement which includes core members who are fasting for over 40 days to bring urgent attention to our global climate crisis, and particularly to influence the Copenhagen climate talks in December.
San Francisco's new energy policy, CleanEnergySF, conflicts with that of its 8th District Congressional Representative, for the past 23 years, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Pelosi is one of the nation's leading advocates of nuclear power, who, in 2007, described herself as born again nuclear and supported that year's failed attempt to overturn California's ban on new nuclear plant construction

The United States is moving backwards...fast. State budget cuts are decimating essential health and social services; public education is being destroyed; the social safety net is in tatters. To make matters worse, all of this is occurring when the loss of jobs stands at a twenty-six year high with no end in sight.
But this is only phase one.
On September 24th some of the most militant politicized street protests the States have seen in nearly a decade countered the G20 summit in Pittsburgh. Anarchist Queers and Trannies were on the frontlines of this struggle; bringing the numbers, the flare, and the wrecking crews. Radical Queers fought police and did everything they could, with what they had, not to back down. A days worth of tear gas, rubber bullet attacks, and fending off straight-idiot-liberals, set the tone for what would be a night of ravenous Queer revenge. A single march of 200+ Queers, Trannies, Womyn, POC, and some allies bashed the fuck back; causing the most property destruction contained to a single neighborhood in Pittsburgh during the protests. So other Anarchists, why the fuck are you ignoring us?

Alexander says the most efficient means to deal with California's over crowded prisons would require state lawmakers abolishing the Three-Strikes Law and remanding more than 30,000 non-violent offenders to their original courts for re-sentencing; however, "that will not likely occur because a majority of the state's lawmakers are more concerned with protecting and preserving the prison industrial complex rather than dealing with this serious threat to human health and public safety.

High comedy will hit Baltimore, on Monday, Nov. 9, 2009. Mayor Sheila Dixon's trial on theft charges begins. She's accused of stealing about $1,500 of gift cards slated for the poor. The Mayor denies any wrongdoing. There's an ex-boyfriend, a developer, in the mix. He's already copped a plea in another City Hall corruption case and plans to testify against the Mayor. Oh, where is the iconic film maker John Waters when we need him the most?
