A recent article by Akiva Eldar in the Israeli newspaper Haaretz signals the realisation that by supporting the Likud-rightwing combination, the United States is actually working against the long-term interests of Israel. The op-ed is appropriately titled: "With friends like these".

The American Government is creating a Propaganda TV channel to brainwash Muslims into loving the American Empire. Described as a "Fox News in Arabic," this TV channel is called METNA, or Middle East Television Network. I wonder if they will have a catchy Orwellian slogan like "Fair and Balanced? Or have an Arabic version of (gulp) Bill O'Reilly? Or an Arabic version of Sean Hannity?

Dean spokeswoman Tricia Enright told The Associated Press that Dean had previously used the Confederate flag image in his campaign. One instance came Feb. 22 at a meeting of the Democratic National Committee in Washington. Dean said the men with Confederate flag decals in their pickup trucks represented lucrative prospects for the party "because their kids don't have health insurance, either, and their kids need better schools, too." The party elite responded with "resounding applause and a standing ovation," Enright said.
In 1978, Shin Sang-ok, South Korea's most famous movie director, was shoved into a car in Hong Kong, a burlap sack was placed over his head, and he was smuggled by ship to North Korea. His wife, Choe Eun-hui, a South Korean movie star, had been snatched a few weeks earlier. Shin spent the next five years in prison and re-education camps. For a time he survived on a diet of cornflour and grass. When he was released, he was presented to Kim Jong Il, then the son of North Korean dictator Kim Il Sung. Kim Jong Il is a fanatical cineaste who keeps a library of 15,000 films, and had for years been directing his own propaganda movies. Kim reunited the director with his wife. Then he took him to a movie studio and told him to get to work. This was the reason for Shin's abduction: 'The North Koreans asked me to improve their image by making good movies,' he told me recently. Shin was given $3m a year to make films and over the next three years - until the couple escaped during a trip to Vienna in 1986 - he made seven features, including Pulgasari, a monster movie based on Godzilla that has become an international cult classic, and another movie that included North Korea's first on-screen kiss. 'The North Koreans were all talented and good people,' he said when I visited his studio in Seoul. 'Just 200 or so were evil, and they were in charge.'
The only other world possible today is a socialist world, in the original sense of the word of course, as a system of common ownership and democratic control of productive resources, not the travesties that passed for socialism in the 20th century.

The My Lai massacre in Vietnam was not an isolated incident. As this article illustrates, it is part of a strategy of counterinsurgency warfare, which intends to eliminate popular support for guerrillas by "shock and awe." It is still being mangaged and financed by the US all over the world. The starkest example is Colombia, where paramilitaries are using chainsaws to slowly torture, dimember and kill peasant farmers who support the guerrillas.

The Committee has released a report documenting that the government of North Korea (DPRK) operates a vast and inhumane prison system for political prisoners. Satellite photography and testimony from escaped former prisoners reveal that North Korea has between 150,000 and 200,000 political prisoners working as slave laborers in prison colonies known as kwan-li-so. The kwan-li-so make up a considerable fraction of the North Korean gulag, according to the report, entitled The Hidden Gulag: Exposing North Korea's Prison Camps.
Troop dispatch to Iraq is an irrecoverable war crime of directly joining the US-led piratical war of aggression and plunder as well as a guilty act of tramping down upon the Iraqi people's desire for peace and security. Many organizations against the troop dispatch to Iraq including the "Emergency People's Action Opposing the Troops Dispatch to Iraq" are formed to make brisk activities now in south Korea. As of Oct. 25, 351 organizations are waging various dynamic struggles such as holding protest rallies and demonstrations, making signature campaigns, publishing statements and comments, etc to stop the additional troop dispatch to Iraq.

'Framing' refers to an overall narrative, a story, that is used to make logical sense of an issue. forget winning on the facts or the science. It's all about the story. It really isn't possible to counter-act the official CAFTA framing narrative using a partial or fragmented framing story which only focuses on 'what is wrong with CAFTA' since the CAFTA narrative is only one small part of a larger story.

Assertions That Daily Attacks In Iraq Is "Progress" Is Just As False And Misleading As Prewar Statements On The Threat Posed By Iraq
In his landmark article, Chaim Kupferberg exposes the series of contradictions, coincidences, and anomalies which put the lie to the Official 9/11 Legend. Here, Kupferberg examines the crucial time period in 1995 when the major structural pivots in the 9/11 Legend were indelibly set in place - the February 1995 capture of the first World Trade Center bomber, followed two months later by the Oklahoma City bombing in April, and followed several months after by the November attack which heralded bin Laden's first public notice as America's foremost nemesis.

BUSH: "I would assume that they're [the suicide bombers] either, or, and probably both Ba'athists and foreign terrorists."
FACT: "There are a growing number of interviews with Iraqi resistance fighters that establish that many, perhaps most, of them are not Ba'athists and not foreigners. One interviewed in the San Francisco Chronicle said that he took up arms after the Fallujah massacre, in which U.S. troops fired into a crowd of peaceful demonstrators, killing 15," said Rahul Mahajan, author of the book Full Spectrum Dominance: U.S. Power in Iraq and Beyond.
