QUOTE:
Will November Bring Hope or Another Stolen Election?
By Paul Craig Roberts
The Democrats, of course, have done nothing to protect us
from Bush’s illegal war or from his assaults on the Constitution
and civil liberty. Democrats have been intimidated by the
threat of being politically placed in the “against us” camp,
and Democrats are as much in the pockets of AIPAC, the
oil industry, and the military-industrial complex as Republicans.

Our Journey to Fascism
By Phil Rockstroh
By way of a ceaseless bombardment of advertising imagery,
we exist in a nonstop, holographic, corporate Nuremberg rally
of the collective mind. We need not participate in old school,
torch-lit processions of Brown Shirts through the streets: This
brand of all-media penetration proto-fascism has been internalized.

Putin Fights Back
By Mike Whitney
The Bush administration’s long-range objectives are already
clear. They aim to privatize the Russian oil industry, convert
the ruble to the dollar, remove Putin from office, and prevent
Russia from controlling the huge oil reserves in the Caspian Basin.

Kim's Message: War is coming to US soil
By Kim Myong Chol
("Unofficial" spokesman of Kim Jong-il and North Korea.)
It is sheer illusion to think that sanctions and isolation will
stop North Korea from the planned nuclear test. US hostility,
threats and sanctions are the very engines that have propelled
the development of nuclear weapons. Absent US hostility,
nuclear blackmailing, sanctions, threats of isolation and
regime change, the Kim administration would never have
thought at all of acquiring nuclear deterrence. Continue

Lebanon- Prelude to the Rape of Iran
By Dick Mazess
An October attack would rally the US public around the
currently unpopular Republican Congress and undercut
the hapless Democratic Party whose virtually only appeal is
"anti-Bush". It would also undermine the attempt of Iran
to establish its oil bourse, a move that would bring Iran an
additional $10 billion in revenues, and that some think
would help undermine the US dollar as the world reserve
currency. Continue

we have never lived in a more dangerous time. Over the
next 15 pages and 7,000 words, our man in the Middle East
looks back over a lifetime of covering war and death, and lays
out a bleak future for all of us - one that even those living in
the comfort of the Home Counties cannot escape. Continue

Bill Moyers: "Capitol Crimes": Video -
"The scale of corruption still coming to light dwarfs anything
since Watergate. In one sense it's the age-old tale of greed,
but greed encouraged now by the way our system works.
Deep in the plea agreements of Jack Abramoff and his cronies
is the admission that they conspired to use campaign
contributions to bribe politicians; campaign finance is at the
core of the corruption.
