The Mayor Who Challenged the President The Nation


The Nation

The night before Salt Lake City Mayor Rocky Anderson
hosted a crowd of several thousand protestors on the
grounds of City Hall, Anderson's friend and advisor,
the sculptor Steven Goldsmith, told me that the mayor
was about to become "a folk hero of the American West."

Challenging the Culture of Obedience


The Nation -- A patriot is a person who loves his or
her country. Who among you loves your country so
much that you have come here today to raise your
voice out of deep concern for our nation--and for
our world?

Goats and Hussars: A British Harbinger of American Defeat

By Chris Floyd

"British forces evacuated the military headquarters
without coordination with the Iraqi forces,"
Dhaffar Jabbar, spokesman for the Maysan
governor, told Reuters on Thursday, as looters
began moving into the camp in the wake of
the British withdrawal. A unit of Iraqi
government troops mutinied when told to
keep order at the base - and instead attacked
a military post of their own army. Continue

All tolled, the Bush-handouts amounted to roughly

Corporate Globalization and Middle East Terrorism

By Charles Sullivan

It is ironic that the people who think they are the
freest are the most controlled people on earth. It
is equally odd that those who think they are part
of the greatest democracy the world has ever
known do not participate in a democracy at all;
nor do they recognize one when they see it. These
facts attest to how thoroughly the American
people have been propagandized by the
corporate media. Continue

Bigotry and Ignorance of Islam

By Charley Reese

President George Bush's ignorance of the Middle East
and its people is well-known. So also is his habit of
parroting words and sentences given to him by
other people. He hit a new low when he referred
to "Islamic fascists." Continue

The Five Morons Revisited

Paul Craig Roberts

When the neocons launched the Bush administration’s
invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq and announced plans
for invading Syria and Iran, I labeled Bush, Cheney,
Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, and Rice “the five Morons.”
With the passage of time I see that I over-estimated
their mental capabilities. Continue

Return Of People Power

By John Pilger

The Lebanese resistance, armed and unarmed, is
from the same wellspring as other movements
throughout the world. Each has learned to put
aside its sectarian differences in the face of a
common enemy - rampant empire and its proxies.

Killing in the Name of Democracy


By James Bovard


The U.S. government’s first experience with forcibly
spreading democracy came in the wake of the
Spanish-American War. When the U.S. government
declared war on Spain in 1898, it pledged it would not
annex foreign territory. But after a swift victory, the
United States annexed all of the Philippines. Continue
