textDave Kersting: Peeling Away Layers of Zionist Lies and Racism by Dave Kersting
Those who try to build a holistic, comprehensive approach to progress, addressing ALL issues - equality for everyone, minors' rights, women's rights, environmental sustainability - find a thousand times as much slanderous and violent opposition on the issue of equality for Palestinians as we do on all other issues combined. Only in the case of Zionism is one "chosen" ethnic-group's claimed "need" for ethnic-supremacy so obnoxious as to vilify EQUALITY as an "attack&q...

textFisk on What's Behind the Saudi Bombing by repost
This is interesting. Fisk suggests that attacks such as this last one are "part of a growing insurrection against bin Laden's enemies in the House of Saud," and that these rebels are undertaking these events in order to "make the kingdom ungovernable," as Iraq is becoming. It makes sense, and yet, are they not aware that the US will move in to fill the void? If Fisk is right, it's only the extreme stupidity of Bush's tactics that have so far turned public opinion agains...

imageWhy We Didn't Remove Saddam
120_bushsr-iraq.jpg
by George Bush Sr. and Brent Scowcroft
On 21 September 2002, The Memory Hole posted an extract from an essay by George Bush Sr. and Brent Scowcroft, in which they explain why they didn't have the military push into Iraq and topple Saddam during Gulf War 1. Although there are differences between the Iraq situations in 1991 and 2002-3, Bush's key points apply to both. But a funny thing happened. Fairly recently, Time pulled the essay off of their site. It used to be on their website, which now gives a 404 error. If you go to the ta...

textCannon Fodder by Posted by Gary Sudborough
The Bush administration has cut veteran's benefits and forced wounded American soldiers to pay for hospital meals. They have kept returning sick and wounded American soldiers in miserable conditions on US military bases and made them wait months for doctor's appointments. Now, they want to close schools and commissaries on military bases and privatize the remaining commissaries. Oh well, that means more taxpayer money for Halliburton, Bechtel and all other American corporations profiting imme...
