WikiLeaks' Funding Blocked
By David Leigh & Rob Evans
http://www.countercurrents.org/evans151010.htm
The whistleblowing group WikiLeaks claims that it has had its funding blocked and that it is the victim of financial warfare by the US government. Moneybookers, a British-registered internet payment company that collects WikiLeaks donations, emailed the organisation to say it had closed down its account because it had been put on an official US watchlist and on an Australian government blacklist

My Oath To Israel's "Jewish Democracy"
By Jonathan Cook
http://www.countercurrents.org/cook151010.htm
Next in Lieberman's sights, of course, are all of Israel's 1.3 million Palestinians, who will be expected to become Zionists or face a loss of citizenship and possibly expulsion. I may be one of the first non-Jews to make this pledge, but many are sure to be forced to follow me
Loyalty Oath Initiators Sending Clear Message
To Arab Israelis
By Ahmad Tibi
http://www.countercurrents.org/tibi151010.htm
Until Israel starts to treat the Palestinians, whoever they are, as equals, including the ones living within it as citizens, and until it recognizes their rights for this land, we shall all continue to be stuck in place and say with great degree of accuracy that Israel is indeed Jewish and democratic – democratic to the Jews, and Jewish to the Arabs
The Biggest Climate Conference
You've Never Heard Of
By Anirvan Chatterjee
http://www.countercurrents.org/chatterjee151010.htm
The world watched last year's climate talks in Copenhagen with hope and trepidation. We spent the past two weeks following the ICAO Assembly, the aviation sector's climate talks in Montreal with equal anticipation. Unlike Copenhagen, there was little coverage, and very limited civil society participation. And now that it's over, despite most parties calling it a success, we have to conclude that it's bad news
Future Chaos: There Is No "Plan B"
By Chris Martenson
http://www.countercurrents.org/martenson151010.htm
The hard news is that there is no "Plan B." The future is likely to be more chaotic than you probably think. This was the primary conclusion that I came to after attending the most recent Association for the Study of Peak Oil & Gas (ASPO) in Washington, DC in October, 2010
'Know-How', 'Know-What' And The Politics Of
Knowledge For Social Change
By Michael Edwards
http://www.countercurrents.org/edwards151010.htm
In an age when wealth and power present a more diffuse and benign face to the world, the soft authority of knowledge is ever more important as a force for social change. The politics of knowledge – how ideas are created, used and disseminated – represents a key issue for the social change community

And A Lesson In Humanity
By Ramzy Baroud

The Case Against Fluoride: Toxifying The Tap
By Rady Ananda
http://www.countercurrents.org/ananda151010.htm
Both the book, The Case Against Fluoride , and the film, Professional Perspectives on Water Fluoridation , provide citizens with sound science to use when demanding that city officials end this "unethical, unnecessary, ineffective and dangerous" practice. Meanwhile, fluoride filtration systems can be purchased for home installation, ranging from around $50 a year to several hundred dollars

Letting The Crooks Off The Hook:
How The AP Debt-Swap Model Bails Out MFIs
By Devinder Sharma
http://www.countercurrents.org/dsharma151010.htm
The proposed ordinance looks to be an outcome of concern. As the Indian Express (Oct 14, 2010) states: 'A special ordinance approved today by the Andhra Pradesh Cabinet to regulate micro-finance institutions (MFIs) is likely to provide for a debt-swapping arrangement wherein high cost debt of MFI customers could be swapped with low interest bearing loans by banks.'
