Written by Stefan Simanowitz   
Wednesday, 27 January 2010
ImageBy the end of his six hour cross examination by the Iraq Inquiry panel in London, Tony Blair's former director of communications and strategy, Alastair Campbell, must have felt as if he had been, in the immortal phrase of a veteran British politician, "savaged by a dead sheep." Arriving at the Chilcot Inquiry, the bags under his eyes suggested that Tony Blair's former communications and strategy director might have suffered a few sleepless nights.

Sana'a, Capital of Yemen
In response to the failed Christmas day bombing of Northwest Airlines flight 253, US officials and the Obama administration made a very public show of shifting their already turbo-charged ‘war on terror' into overdrive. Here in the US, officials - aided by the corporate media - attempted to reassure a terror-weary American public with nationally televised displays of stepped up screenings at airports, increased numbers of air marshals on international flights and the addition of hundreds of names to the CIA's ‘terrorist watch list.'

How Obama Betrays Reverend King’s Philosophy of Nonviolence
Written by Jeff Nall   
Monday, 18 January 2010
