Norman Solomon, Truthout: 'In times of war, US presidents have often talked about yearning for peace. But the last decade has brought a gradual shift in the rhetorical zeitgeist while a tacit assumption has taken hold - war must go on, one way or another. While absurdly hypocritical, such claims mouthed the idea that the United States need not be at war 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. But these days, peace gets less oratorical juice. In this era, after all, the amorphous foe known as 'terror' will never surrender.'

Sarah Palin is fond of saying she ll feel compelled to run for president 'if nobody else were to step up.' It just might come to that. The recent departures of Mitch Daniels and Mike Huckabee from the 2012 GOP field, combined with a flurry of recent moves by Palin - staff changes, the purchase of a home in Arizona, the Iowa premiere of a new feature-length film extolling the former Alaska governor - is rekindling speculation that she sees an opportunity in 2012 and may be thinking more seriously than ever about a presidential run.'

Fukushima: a health disaster in the making

- 4956 workers have been internally contaminated by nuclear radiation.
However, this figure represents only 10% of the actual number of workers whose internal contamination has been monitored.

- IAEA SCANDAL: As they were not able to respect these values in the case of the Fukushima disaster, the Japanese government 'on the advice of experts' of the IAEA simply raised the levels from 6.000 cpm to 100.000 cpm.

The police state is personal

Ludwig von Mises Institute Ludwig von Mises Institute
by Wendy McElroy

05/25/11

A police state is more commonly described as a totalitarian government that exerts extreme social, political, and economic control. It maintains this control by a pervasive surveillance of its own citizenry, by draconian law enforcement, and by granting or withholding 'privileges such the ability to travel. Typically, there is a special police force, such as a Stasi, that operates with no transparency and few restraints. Unlike traditional policemen, who respond to crime, the purpose of such state police is to monitor and control society. Let me restate my opening question: does America now embody this common description of a police state? Clearly it does.

The US raid to take out Osama bin Laden was technically 'an act of war', said former Pakistani president Pervez Musharraf, who described as 'arrogance' US President Barack Obama s statement that he would order another raid if required.

Where d the Patriot Act?s malcontents go?

Independent Institute
by Anthony Gregory

05/25/11

During the Bush years, the Patriot Act was seen as a symbol of all that was wrong with a lawless and predatory administration. The left regarded it as the embodiment of the presidential overreach and big-brother tactics of the Republicans. There are still many who are somewhat critical of the Act, but where is the urgency and outrage? Part of it can be explained in terms of pure partisanship and political priorities...
