Open Letter to New York Times Editors

Stephen Lendman: Open Letter to New York Times Editors

Picture him conjuring images of violent Jewish “fanaticism” – not a hard task, given what is happening in Israel today. If he had done so, Abbas would have been denounced in every Western capital as the 21st century incarnation of Hitler.

New York Times Promotes War on Syria

The business of America is war. Policy calls for permanent ones. Wall Street and war profiteers demand them. Policy makers oblige. The Times and other media scoundrels show support. Imperial dominance, wealth, power and privilege alone matter. Throughout its history, its record reflects shame and contempt for humanity. Corporate interests are endorsed. So are imperial wars.

Whitbeck (Source: The Christian Science Monitor) “Recognizing Israel” or any other state is a formal legal and diplomatic act by one state with respect to another state.

Bush always claimed that he will refuse any bills amendment (such as this one) which would limit the treatment of detainees in his “war on terror” because he says they are “not needed” and because they don’t torture anyone, right?
