Roots Of Occupy: Wall Street Has Always Been War Street
 By Mickey Z.

http://www.countercurrents.org/mickeyz240412.htm

Thousands upon thousands of racketeers for capitalism helped lay the foundation for a well-informed global movement with passion, endurance, and diversity.

Tax Day With The 99 Percent Spring: Occupy Nothing
 By Fritz Tucker

http://www.countercurrents.org/tucker240412.htm

The 99% Spring – at least what I witnessed of it on Tax Day – is a separate movement, devoid of occupation and participatory organizational structures. It seems to be doing its best to recapture the hearts and minds of the many people who were radicalized last fall, as well as those who were disenchanted by OWS' shortcomings. In a testament to the power of language, however, the 99% Spring has blatantly co-opted the most popular slogan from Occupy Wall Street—"We Are The 99 Percent!"—which was an incredibly vague, meaningless slogan that practically begged co-option

Side By Side - Parallel Histories of Israel-Palestine
 By Jim Miles

http://www.countercurrents.org/miles240412.htm

Book Review: "Side by Side - Parallel Histories of Israel-Palestine" . This book is well worth the read for its honesty and not so parallel approach to the stories. The lives of the Israelis and Palestinians are indeed intertwined, and while they may try to carry two narratives, this honest examination of both demonstrates that they are part of a whole, not equal, but all fitting into one singular series of historical events
