Obama’s speech on Afghanistan: A compendium of lies

03-12-2009 12:40 | Terror War | World

In his December 1 speech at West Point announcing the deployment of 30,000 more US troops to Afghanistan, President Barack Obama attempted to justify a major escalation of a deeply unpopular war on the basis of lies and distortions.

03-12-2009 10:08 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Anti-racism | World

The American information bubble prevents the populace from recognizing the world around it. Iran's leader, constantly demonized in the “bubble,” “is not a pariah everywhere on earth, no matter how much American press and politicians fume and fuss.”

Iran: Time to Leave the NPT?

30-11-2009 23:49 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Anti-racism | World

Article IV of the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) acknowledges the "inalienable right" of non-nuclear weapons states (NNWS) to research, develop, and use nuclear energy for non-weapons purposes.

Honduras State Employees Forced to Attend Santos Campaign Rally

30-11-2009 07:55 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Social Struggles | World

"The National Front Against the Coup d'Etat has called on its participants to remain indoors in a "voluntary curfew" in noncooperation with the fraudulent vote. Should any incidents of violence occur today it won't be from the Resistance, but, rather, the result of the regime's own provocateurs. National presidential candidate Carlos H. Reyes withdrew from the ballot last month, as did many Congressional candidates and one major-party vice presidential candidate: Santos' own running mate on the Liberal Party line is among those who reject this fraudulent process as illegitimate."
