Our American Thanksgiving"We cannot continue to live our double standards and expect the world to accept or even understand them. Might does not make right." |
|
|
The bonfire of the American morality"America is a nation fast becoming a coliseum of uniformed minds. The New Speak is spreading. We wave our American Flag with an emotion that is weighed both by love and hate until hate becomes equal and even surpasses what is right." |

Plutocrazy - America 2004"Who’s benefiting from the $5.8 billion being thrown away in Iraq? Surely, not you and I and all the working stiffs in America. It is the military industrial complex and the Plutocrats who laugh all the way to the bank, regardless of how many die on either side of their war for profit." |

A Voluntary Tic in Media Coverage of Iraq"Attacks on U.S. troops occupying Iraq are often matter-of-factly reported to be the work of “terrorists.” Along the way, American media outlets -- unlike news coverage in much of the rest of the world -- are apt to downplay eyewitness accounts of the civilian death toll from U.S. military assaults. In this country, such accounts are frequently ignored or discounted as “unconfirmed.” |

A Distant Mirror of Holy War"As the United States government terrorizes and murders in the name of fighting terrorism and murder, the message from Washington is that its holy war of might is unquestionably right." |

Prejudice and distortion constitute 'honest reporting' when a Muslim speaks plainly"If a Muslim makes even the tiniest slip of the tongue his words will be exaggerated out of all proportion; if a Jew should advocate or commit overt terrorism against Arabs, the story will be ignored or downplayed as much as possible." |
