There is a tremendous irony when a child can make a statement that our vaunted leaders, and others who feel the sword is the appropriate way to make a statement. Martin Richard was killed by the bomb at the finish line of the Boston Marathon. Picture is from facebook. “No more hurting people. Peace.” An [...]
By Patrice Greanville. Republished from The Greanville Post. The year 2012 is turning out to be a hard year for the enemies of the Empire and its tegument of lies. Death is silencing some powerful voices. In June we lost Alex Cockburn, now Vidal. Did you like this? Share it:Tweet
By Rowan Wolf There are headlines that I just hate to see because what follows is just formulaic. “Investigations” into public employee benefits, pay, or retirement funds are a sure fire bet that big pressure to cut all of the above are coming. Instead, they should be asking, “How to we improve all worker’s wages [...]
By William T. Hathaway. Republished from Dandelion Salad. Image courtesy Dandelion Salad. “We’ve always had wars. Humans are a warring species. Without an army to defend us, someone will always try to conquer us.” These assumptions have become axioms of our culture. They generate despair but also a certain comfort because they relieve us of [...]
By Phil Rockstroh (Link to Part 1). My parents modest, single-level, brick home stands on property that was once part of a sprawling estate owned by the Candler family, Atlanta’s Coca-Cola patricians. Built during the post-war, 1950s building boom, the small house is situated in a deep ravine that once served as the grounds of [...]
By Ed Duvin Republished from The Greanville Post (Here is the link to Broken Movement Part 1) Having penned an essay on the pending hen bill, I’m told that it went “viral,” but that’s not the criterion by which I assess my work. My two barometers of success are whether it furthers the cause and [...]

The new classic in
political espionage thrillers
Other contemporary novelists, such as le Carré and Ludlum, have skirted around the issues. So far, only Stewart has had the courage to nail the lies directly. The encirclement of Russia (and, to an extent, also India and China, seen by America as threats to its global hegemony) and the surreptitious expansion of American military and economic power worldwide in defence of an obviously corrupt and failing global capitalism ...through its multitude of ‘Lily Pad’ bases – is the major, as yet insufficiently told, story of our time.—P.
