  • Bushwomen

    Laura Flanders

    The Bushwomen have created an estrogen shield for the White House. “Theirs is the politics of masquerade,” says Laura Flanders. “They are the media friendly face of one of the most extreme administrations in U.S. history.” The mission of the Bushwomen is to cosmetically transform the Republican Party’s image without changing its policies. Are they […]
  • Egypt: Democracy or Dictatorship?

    Saad Eddin Ibrahim

    Egypt, the largest Arab country, has long been ruled by a series of autocrats. The latest and one of the most enduring is Hosni Mubarak, a close ally of Washington and recipient of billions in U.S. aid. He is trying to maintain his grip on power. The winds of change may alter his plans. There […]
  • In Defense of Government

    Elaine Bernard

    George Bush likes to talk about an ownership society in the United States, a place where more people own property, businesses and shares of stock. The president says we can get there by cutting taxes and by reducing regulation of commerce and industry. Except for the military, government is the bad guy who should get […]
  • Dateline: Beirut

    Robert Fisk

    The U.S. is burning a perilous path in the Middle East. The empire builders in Washington want control of the region’s oil and command of its strategic position. Two key countries are Lebanon and Iraq. And on the edge is Afghanistan. What’s really going on there? You won’t know much if you’re feeding at the […]
  • The Burning Tigris: The Armenian Genocide

    Peter Balakian

    Milan Kundera, the great Czech writer said, “The struggle of humankind against power is the struggle of memory against forgetting.” Writing in the 1970s, he acknowledges how events get passed over and passed by. “The bloody massacre in Bangladesh quickly covered over the memory of the Russian invasion of Czechoslovakia, the assassination of Allende drowned […]
  • Iraq to Iran: The Empire Attacks

    Scott Ritter

    Speculation is running rampant on what country will be the target of the next U.S. attack. Iran ranks high. It was an original member of the president’s “axis of evil.” Before going to Baghdad, the neocons used to say, “Real men go to Teheran.” Then there’s Syria of course. North Korea? Well maybe not. They […]
  • The CIA and Cuba

    Philip Agee

    The island of Cuba occupies a big place in the imagination and politics of the United States. The powerful anti-Castro lobby has greatly influenced U.S. policy toward the Caribbean nation. The landscape of U.S./Cuba relations is dotted with the missile crisis, blockades, embargoes and boat refugees. Few know the details of the extensive CIA operations […]
  • Air-Brushing History

    Howard Zinn

    Studs Terkel, the great historian, says the U.S. suffers from a kind of national Alzheimer’s disease. Aided and abetted by the media and the education system there are aspects of history that are simply forgotten. Take say the Nuremberg trials after World War II where the top Nazis faced justice. What were they accused of? […]
  • Democracy & U.S. Foreign Policy

    Noam Chomsky

    CIA Director Porter Goss warned Congress that “Islamic extremists are exploiting” the Iraq war “to recruit new jihadists.” Those who survived the war, he said, were likely to leave Iraq “experienced and focused on acts of urban terrorism.” And that it would “only be a matter of time before Al Qaeda” uses weapons of mass […]
  • Delusions of Empire

    Tariq Ali

    In 1920, T. E. Lawrence, the famous Lawrence of Arabia wrote, “The people of England have been led in Iraq into a trap from which it will be hard to escape with dignity and honour. They have been tricked into it by a steady withholding of information. It is a disgrace to our imperial record, […]
  • Plan B: A Blueprint for People & the Planet

    Lester Brown

    The global demand for food and fresh water continues to rise. But world grain production is down. And we’re depleting groundwater at an unsustainable pace. Global temperatures are rising rapidly due to emissions from cars, factories and power plants. Plan A; maintaining the status quo thru over consumption of resource, is not working. In a […]
  • Jim Crow & Jezebel Go To Hollywood

    Cedric Robinson

    The power of cinema to shape public perception is as old motion pictures themselves. In the late 19th century, Jim Crow was the term for a system of laws and policies designed to maintain racial segregation. Jezebel was a featured character in Southern literature at that time, an irresistible black woman seducing white men. The […]
