God On The Table: Attempting A Useful
Discussion Of Mankind's Spiritual Future
By Mike Ruppert

http://www.countercurrents.org/ruppert021110.htm

Mankind is essentially expecting (or demanding) that technology overturn the laws of physics, chemistry and especially thermodynamics/energy. By definition, anything that can overturn natural laws is God. Under this construct, technology is, in fact, a religion

The Phantom Left
By Chris Hedges

http://www.countercurrents.org/hedges021110.htm

The American left is a phantom. It is conjured up by the right wing to tag Barack Obama as a socialist and used by the liberal class to justify its complacency and lethargy. It diverts attention from corporate power. It perpetuates the myth of a democratic system that is influenced by the votes of citizens, political platforms and the work of legislators. It keeps the world neatly divided into a left and a right. The phantom left functions as a convenient scapegoat

Sabotage On The Rise
By William T. Hathaway

http://www.countercurrents.org/hathaway021110.htm

Militant activists in the USA are turning to sabotage in the struggle for social change. Outraged by the Democrats continuing the war they had pledged to stop, a growing number of domestic insurgents have moved beyond demonstrations and petitions into direct action, defying the government's laws and impeding its capacity for mass murder. Despairing over the prospect of endless war, they are convinced the only way to bring peace now is to bring the system down, and sabotage is one way to do that

Leaking The Truth
By Dr. Chandra Muzaffar

http://www.countercurrents.org/muzaffar021110.htm

We should not allow those who speak – or leak--- the truth to be subjected to such injustice and indignity. Global public opinion should rally around Assange. We should also come to the defence of Private Bradley Manning, the 22 year-old, who leaked classified military information including a video of a US army helicopter gunning down Iraqi civilians in 2007, and is now in military detention in Virginia in the US. Citizens groups should demand his unconditional release

Kashmir, Arundhati Roy And Violence
By Tomichan Matheikal

http://www.countercurrents.org/matheikal021110.htm

Arundhati Roy spoke to Kashmiris and felt their heartbeat before expressing her opinion. By attacking her one is only trying to silence the truth. Isn't it better to face the truth and seek a solution than live in a myth and pay heavily in terms of human lives and mounting costs?
