Ludicrous assumptions are many but perhaps the most absurd is the assumption that those who steal the greater percentage of available wealth and continue to implement economic strategies designed to enslave are (somehow) safe and secure. From the Pacific islands to the pitch battles in Mainland China, exploited people of the world are retaliating against injustice. ... read full story / add a comment

Malcolm Richter's Body was found beside, " A video-camera, a canister of Gasoline, a sign reading 'Thou shalt not kill' . He self-immolated publicly in Chicago during early morning rush-hour on November the third. The death witnessed by hundreds of people did not make the 'press'. Oaxaca did not make the mainstream either. A website focusing on his antiwar activites has been opened with an appeal to tell his story.

The indigenous people of Rossport are not the only threatened by oil and gas exploration. In March 2006, the US Senate passed a measure in the budget bill that opened the Artic National Wildlife Refuge to drilling - as the region suffers from some of the worst oil spills in its history from the pipelines to the existing Prudhoe Bay facilities. http://www.freepress.org/departments/display/3/2006/1868 One of the Indian peoples threatened by this invasive development are the Gwich'in, whose Alaskan settlements are over 20,000 years old and whose lives are centred around the now-threatened Porcupine Caribou. ... read full story / add a comment

Not too long ago Rupert Murdock would have trounced anyone in his media group for letting the ‘cat out of the bag’ (stating plain truth). It was therefore with jaw-dropping amazement that a local Australian audience listened to Murdock plainly state that we should not allow a particular administration to affect our attitude to the United States. “Administrations come and go”, he said, inferring REAL POWER, which Murdock represents, continues unaffected by the whims of democratic process! ... read full story / add a comment

If after comparing actual events with posturing and rhetoric you conclude that Western governments serve minority corporate interests rather than the interests of the people, you would have discovered the lie that is democracy. You may also be surprised to discover that the majority of people who live in so-called democratic societies are actually compliant slaves! Governments that are SUBJECT to the rule of minority Corporate/Financial elites could hardly be expected to serve the interests of the majority if their masters specialise in inequity, disparity and the concentration of wealth in the fewest possibly hands. The appropriate response to any politician who states they are serving the interests of democracy, liberty or the people should therefore be, LIAR – unless of course you belong to the category of mindless slaves referred to above! ... read full story / add a comment
