The Other War: Pentagon's Own Report On Afghanistan Invasion Blasts U.S. War Strategy A report commissioned by the Pentagon on the invasion of Afghanistan was turned away after it concluded there was a wide gap between how the White House represented the war and what was actually taking place. We speak with the New Yorker's Pulitzer prize-winning journalist Seymour Hersh who says, "It's a great trifecta for this administration. In three-and-a-half years of office, we have destroyed Afghanistan, destroyed Iraq and we are in the process of destroying the UN too."...

Remembering the 1991 Shiite Uprising In Iraq: Will The Results Be The Same This Time? 
Will the US respond to a Shiite uprising the same way Saddam did? The US won't go in and openly massacre the population in the same way, but there are likely to be similarities. The US already tortures suspected "terrorists" and since Shiite fundamentalists are now being classified as "terrorists" ,the dehumanization process isn't much different from that encouraged by Saddam. Dozens died in yesterdays small uprising by a cleric with only marginal popularity. How many will...
