Islamophobia: The pathology of paranoia"It is a shame that the media is less interested in what Mr. Army and others who routinely use more provocative and broadly condemning terms such as “Islamo-fascism,” “Islamic terrorism,” and “Jihadism” to describe "the enemy," the 7 million Muslims in the United States and 1.2 billion around the world.” |

The Pashtun Question and Pakistan's Fears"It is believed that Pakistan’s Afghan policy is still guided by its fears about the Pashtun Question. But if it is so, using terrorism will hardly do. The two countries need to resolve the issue through negotiations." |

'Obsession,' the Radical Right's War on Islam"The film’s ultimate goal is to lay the grounds for a larger religious war that goes beyond our national security interests and has only two beneficiaries: radical evangelicals who hold an apocalyptic worldview, and war profiteers who gamble at the expense of thousands of American lives and trillions of tax-payer dollars." |

Corporate-Government On Display and the Taxpayers Will Pay :: The Bailout Win-Win For Speculators, Risk Takers and Finance Thieves ::"....the same people who made the mess, profited from the mess are now profiting from the bailout. The wealth-class profited immensely over recent decades, expanding while the middle class was stagnate. At the bottom of the income distribution, the wages of low-skilled workers, the "working poor," have been stagnant or falling through the past three decades. And at the very top, the share of income going to the richest 1 percent of Americans has nearly doubled from about 8 percent in the late '70s to about 15 percent today and that does not even count capital gains profits." |

Waziristan 1936-37 :: The Problems of NWFP and their solutions ::"The world is very old; we must profit by its experience. It teaches that old practices are often worth more than new theories." |

It's The System, Stupid!"No matter which major party affirmative action team wins, it will attempt to strengthen this imperial anachronism by borrowing more billions from foreigners, floating fake electronic money to pay them off, and giving the real bill to taxpayers. New loans will pay off old loans made with other borrowed money to pay still older loans, until this massive Ponzi scheme reaches a climax. It could come sooner than we think." |

Fly, Tzipora, fly!"Tzipi Livni presented herself as the personification of the peace effort, the woman who conducts the negotiations with the Palestinians, who prefers diplomacy to war, who points the way to the end of the conflict. All this may be sleight of hand, pure deceit. Perhaps there is no difference at all between the two. But even if this is so, that is not the most important aspect. The important fact is that the Kadima voters, the most representative group in the country, accorded victory - well, a tiny victory - to the candidate who at least pretended to favor peace." |

The Fed, AIG, Congress, Third Party Candidates and the Debt“The Fed,” William Greider said, “decides who shall prosper and who shall fail.” American International Group (AIG), Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Bear Stearns, all private entities, will be bailed out by the taxpayers. Third Party candidates want an audit and investigation of “The Fed,” an unelected clique. “The Fed,” and the Treasury Dept., are currently submitting a Mother of All Bailout schemes to the Congress. It may cost the public $1 trillion! |
