Osama Bin Laden's Second Death
 By Paul Craig Roberts

http://www.countercurrents.org/roberts030511.htm

This morning's headline has the odor of a staged event. The smell reeks from the triumphalist news reports loaded with exaggerations, from celebrants waving flags and chanting "USA USA." Could something else be going on?


Lies, Damn Lies, And Bin Laden's Death
 By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman030511A.htm

Obama's latest lie left America's imperial agenda unchanged. In fact, his announcement likely bolsters public support for what's clearly become unpopular, saying:"(T)hink back to the sense of unity that prevailed on 9/11," urging people to show it again despite how militarism harms their security, well-being and futures by draining funds badly needed for domestic needs

If there is anything positive to take from this moment, let it be that the American people now begin to build a movement to dismantle the post-911 war machine, to cry out for the restoration of our civil liberties and to press for an immediate withdrawal of all troops from Afghanistan and Iraq and an end to the drone bombings in Pakistan


Time For Pakistan Establishment To Show
 Some Commitment To Secularism And Justice
 By Vidya Bhushan Rawat

http://www.countercurrents.org/rawat030511.htm

The fears of people like me is that if Pakistan and Bangladesh go to the right wing fundamentalist groups, it will only strengthen the process of radicalisation of other communities too and the end would be chaos and further destruction of lives in South Asia. Islam is not in danger but Muslims are facing persecution because of a few such fanatics
