Imperialism, the essence of 9/11

9/11 viewed through the lens of Imperialism; originally broadcast on 2006/09/18.
As previously identified by numerous American geopolitical planners, their Imperialism needed a 9/11 as pretext for its unending 'War on Terrorism'.
While the horror of the spectacular terrorism of 9/11 is exploited to instill an unwarranted climate of fear and manipulate public opinion, the public is kept entirely unaware of the pernicious motive forces underlying Imperialism.

"Towers of Deception", Barrie Zwicker

Obama-mania: the power of the Story and the power of Ideas

Review of the US 2008 election, examining how and why Obama-mania won over most Americans and the vast majority of citizens of the world. Obama promised only "change", without specifics, and was widely perceived as a 'messiah'. Beyond his exceptional intelligence, charisma, inter-racial appeal and fervent following, his annointment as 'chosen one' by Big Money was probably based on his image providing the most powerful facelift for the continuation of American imperialism, and the 'left cover' for imposition of draconian austerity measures required by the unprecedented American and global financial crises.

8/8/08, Dawn of a New World Order

Aug.8 2008 was an historic day. The opening of the Olympic Games in Beijing (attended by Bush, Putin and 80 heads of state, and viewed by about 3-4 billion people aroung the world) was more than the widely heralded "China's coming out party". Our view is that it symbolized the end of the sole super-power era, and the beginning of the multi-polar world, with China confidently staking out a future claim as first among equals.
This day was also noteworthy for the ignominious attack by the Republic of Georgia, acting as a US proxy, on the separatist province of South Ossetia; analysis of this blatant provocation repulsed by Russia.

Support the Troops - Stop the Lies - Stop the Wars

"Support the Troops" is the jingo used by the war-mongers to preempt any serious discussion about the case for war. Our view is that the troops indeed deserve the support of all citizens, who should demand an end to the lies that are routinely given as the false reasons for war. And since all wars are always about profit and oppression, all wars except any truly in self-defense should always be stopped.
