Protest Over "Geronimo" Code Name
 By Mike Graham

http://www.countercurrents.org/graham040511.htm

The American Indian community demands an apology from President Obama to include U.S. Senate and House Of Representatives for allowing the code name "Geronimo" represent international terrorist Osama bin Laden


Media Lies And Misinformation On Bin Laden
 By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman040511.htm

Western politicians and media, notably America's, never miss a chance to report fiction, not fact, especially on headline news like bin Laden's death, a decade after it happened


A National Sickness
 By Calvin Sloan

http://www.countercurrents.org/sloan040511.htm

With Osama's body safely laid to rest at sea, there cannot be an international entity to verify the DNA results – not that there ever would have been – and thus the final word lies with the President, and his professional prevaricators


Life, Death And Afterlife Of Osama bin Laden
 By Shajahan Madampat

http://www.countercurrents.org/madamapt040511.htm

Osama bin Laden's death barely a few months ahead of the 10th anniversary of 9/11 is likely to be utterly inconsequential, except in domestic politics in the United States

Sad Refrain From Bahrain
 By Dan Lieberman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lieberman040511.htm

The media and world bodies have generally ignored the Bahrain protests, making it difficult to know what is happening. Emails from an activist in Bahrain illuminate some of the occurrences and highlight how the struggle has grown from seeking equality in life to receiving a punishing death. It's a sad and captivating story


Deep Green Resistance
 By Derrick Jensen, Lierre Keith & Aric McBay

http://www.countercurrents.org/jensen040511.htm

There is a planet being murdered, and there are also targets that, if taken out relentlessly, could stop it. So think "resistance" with all your aching heart, a word that must become our promise to what is left of this planet. Gather the others: you already know them. The brave, smart, militant, and, most of all, serious, and together take aim. Do it carefully, but do it

The Terror Of Empire's Death Spiral
 By Frank Joseph Smecker

http://www.countercurrents.org/smecker040511.htm

What terrifies me more than anything… more than al-Qaida… more than this seemingly self-perpetual terror dance, is the day resources become too unaffordable to continue allowing militaries to convey this culture's messages around the globe


New Israeli Discriminatory Laws
 By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman040511A.htm

In April, the Adalah Legal Center for Arab Minority Rights in Israel discussed six new laws passed during the Knesset's 2011 winter term "that directly or indirectly target the rights of Palestinian Arab citizens of Israel." Overall, they're treated like a fifth column, denied equal rights as Jews in a country just as much theirs

Canada Turns Hard Right
 By Jim Miles

http://www.countercurrents.org/miles040511.htm

With the Conservatives receiving only 24 per cent of the actual voting populations support, what is really reflected is a comfortable complacency with the status quo combined with an underlying wilful ignorance of some of the main global problems of today


What The POSCO Order Means
 By Campaign For Survival And Dignity

http://www.countercurrents.org/csd040511.htm

The order on the POSCO project is condemnable in more ways than one. The basic principle is simple. The forest land and resources are not the private property of the government that it can give away. They belong to the people, the 4000 families who have rights
