America, two hundred and thirty seven years ago we overthrew a colonial foreign power that occupied our land, stole our treasury, and dictated its interests upon Americans. Americans launched a revolution against the most powerful military in the world and won. The United States of America was founded as a FREE, independent, and SOVEREIGN NATION, only to see another foreign nation, ISRAEL, use insidious stealth power of money, media, and lobbies to once again dictate its will and policies upon a most obliging compliant federal government.

Clive Hambidge: The American Manifest Destiny
American progress is, has been, constructed on abuse and contempt for the sovereignty of other nations and their people and is thereby racist. American peace, American liberty, American freedom, and the ruthless pursuit of happiness for American citizens is the dream, but the manifest truth is, that American citizens are facing social meltdown and immizeration at home as their military and intelligence agencies kill abroad for profit. This America we hold to be self evident. “The idea of rights is nothing but the concept of virtue applied to the world of politics. By means of the idea of rights men have defined the nature of licence and of tyranny … no man can be great without virtue, nor any nation great without the respects for rights.” (Alexis de Tocqueville, Democracy in America [1835] 1991:219). This America must be your manifest duty to understand. How can you export American Democracy to a distrusting world when “you have no product?” (Cindy Sheehan).
Stephen Lendman: Islamofascist Rule in Egypt
Doublespeak duplicity conceals tyranny. Democracy is verboten. It’s not tolerated. Hardline rule is policy. So are social injustice and anti-worker practices. Egypt’s new constitution establishes Islamofascist rule. Junta power heads it. Repression confronts resisters. Morsi claims dictatorial executive powers. Constitutional rights don’t matter. Nor does press freedom. Security forces can detain protesters indefinitely.
Stuart Littlewood: Truth-telling British MP in Zionists’ crosshairs
The challenge to Zionist’s unspeakable behaviour is not going away, nor should it until the regime’s attitude changes fundamentally and the occupation ends. In the meantime those who support, defend and perpetuate it must accept some of the blame.
Mohamed Khodr: Amendment to U.S. Constitution. President Nominates Hagel, Israel Lobby Gives “Advise and Consent”, Not U.S. Senate
In effect, Hagel imbibed, adopted, and swallowed Israel’s laundry list of demands. NOTHING BUT ISRAEL is the concern of Jewish Americans in and out of government, the rest of the world can go to hell. Hagel lost and sold his soul, honor, dignity, self respect, courage, and principles to a powerful minority to secure a government job.
William A. Cook: Universalism and Individualism versus Tribalism
this country has chosen to support the increasingly undemocratic state of Israel, the ever increasing tribalism that is pushing that state into a theocracy that denies the universalism of all human kind and imposes a set of beliefs that threaten to destroy the very concept of individual rights. America invests untold billions of dollars into this state ostensibly because it is democratic, a democratic friend in the mid-east, and it adheres to America’s core values. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Stephen Lendman: Washington Post Supports Israeli Settlements
Washington Post editors ignore the worst of imperial crimes. They endorse Israeli occupation harshness. Jewish rights alone matter, they believe. Settlement construction is legitimate, they suggest. It’s no obstacle to peace, they claim. Further construction won’t prevent a two-state solution. They endorse Jewish supremacy and specialness. They’re comfortable with belligerence, persecution and land theft.
Joseph Massad: Palestinians, Egyptian Jews and propaganda
Concomitant with these rumours is the Egyptian government’s and the opposition’s race to please the United States and its Zionist lobby. While the very same Issam al-Aryan spoke about the tragedy of the Jewish holocaust while in the US on a Muslim Brotherhood promotional trip in May 2011, the naïve and charisma-less Mohamed el-Baradei upped the ante by telling a German newspaper that elected Salafi and Brotherhood members of parliament should not be trusted to draft the Egyptian constitution because they allegedly deny the holocaust!
Lawrence Davidson: Haneen Zoabi is Another Persecuted Truth-Teller
Haneen Zoabi is insisting that the Israeli State cease identifying itself with the interest of a single constituency and start representing the interests of the nation as a whole. What this is all about, she says, are “the values, the humanistic, universalistic values of freedom, of equality, of justice.” But there is nothing “universalistic” about Zionism and so, for her efforts, she is castigated and threatened. Such is the state that Zionism has built.
Mohamed Khodr: Who Will Obama Choose – AIPAC or Senator Hagel?
President Obama you must nominate Senator Chuck Hagel or forever be known as the President who surrendered our sovereignty and independence to a state whose belligerent policies against a defenseless people, the Palestinians, are condemned by the entire world.
Not nominating Senator Hagel will only further embolden Israel and its amen corner to further ensure that all such future decisions and nominations be first approved in Tel Aviv, not by the American people.
Chris Hedges: Egypt’s New Pharaoh And The Useful Idiots
The lines are drawn. Morsi and the Brotherhood have been exposed as the heirs of the old dictatorship in new garb. The struggle for an open society is being waged by the betrayed on the streets of Egyptian cities. It will be a fight to the death. Brotherhood posters put up throughout Egypt in support of the pending constitution urge people to vote yes to “Supporting Legitimacy and Shariah [Islamic law].” Those who oppose legitimacy and Islamic law, it goes without saying, are heretics.
Dr. Elias Akleh: American Nuclear Hypocrisy
When it comes to criminal Israel, American nuclear hypocrisy go as far as criminalizing themselves by violating their own American laws to protect and support Israel financially, militarily, and politically.
Paul Craig Roberts: Puppet State America
America, superpower, groveling at Netanyahu’s feet. When Netanyahu decided to again murder the Palestinian women and children of Gaza, the US Senate, the US House of Representatives, the White House, and the US media all promptly declared their support for Netanyahu’s crime
Israel Doubles West Bank Settlements Budget
“Israel has secretly doubled the West Bank settlements’ budget,” says Yuval Steinitz. Imagine how happy the Jewish settlers (votes) in Occupied Palestine are.
In the US today, the power of money rules. Nothing else is in the equation
In America today, law serves the powerful (Zionist money), not justice (citizens). In effect, there is no law, and no justice. Only unaccountable power.
US Congress getting involved with Fatah Constitution
This is unbelievable and really shows how absolutely clueless American politicians are: A push by right-wing American Jewish activists to change the constitution of the governing Palestinian party is gaining momentum in Congress, even as Israelis are dismissing the document as “irrelevant,†and the umbrella body of American Jewish organizations has voted against taking up [...]
God hates fags so they’re coming home in body bags
Hat tip: Robin Here is a man who goes by the name of Reverand Fred Phelps in Kansas. His followers are protesting funerals of US military and legislators are seeking to BAN his activities (I don’t know how constitutional the ban can be). Try to get this: he is protesting on the basis that US [...]
Iraq constitution approved
Aljazeera: Constitution has been approved, the ‘independent electoral commission’ said, as it announced the final results of this month’s landmark referendum. I liked the word ‘independent‘… Independent under occupation, aren’t they? Anyway, as the Independent Commission for Iraqi Elections proclaimed a few hours ago, only 2 provinces (Anbar & Diyala) rejected the draft with more [...]
Humpty-Dumpty Iraq’s Constitution
Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall, Humpty Durnpty had a great fall; Not all the king’s horses, Nor all the king’s men Could set Humpty Dumpty together again. Should a Humpty-Dumpty Iraq Be glued back together again? Iraq’s draft constitution will probably be approved in the referendum to be held today. But whether it is [...]
