June 18, 2013 Tomgram: Nick Turse, Blowback Central The other day, Hamid Karzai, the U.S.-supported Afghan president who was once sardonically nicknamed “the mayor of Kabul,” had a few curious things to say about American policy in the Muslim world. Karzai, of course, is a man whose opinions -- whether on U.S. special operations forces and their (out of control) militias, U.S. night raids on Afghan homes, or U.S. air strikes on Afghan villages -- Washington loves to ignore. He is considered “volatile.” Sometimes, however, it’s worth listening to what our subordinate allies, uncomfortable nationalists-cum-puppets, think and say about us. As Josh Rogin reported at the Daily Beast, Karzai recently suggested that, starting in the early 1980s when the Reagan administration and the CIA buddied up with the Saudis and Pakistani intelligence and backed a set of extreme fundamentalist Afghan rebels against the Soviets, the U.S. has been, advertently or not, promoting Islamic radicalism in the Greater Middle East. As Karzai said of that long-forgotten moment, “The more radical we looked and talked, the more we were called mujahedin. The consequence of that was a massive effort toward uprooting traditional Afghan values and culture and tolerance.” In his speech at the 2013 U.S.-Islamic World Forum, he made a case for the ways in which Washington’s destabilization of the region has never ended, provoking ever more extreme blowback as it goes. Without a doubt, the central event in the multi-decade fiasco that for a few years was known as the Global War on Terror was the invasion of Iraq, Washington’s preeminent act of folly so far in the twenty-first century. Its disastrous effects have yet to be fully absorbed or assessed. Yet without that invasion, it is hard to imagine a whole series of developments, including the present killing fields in Syria, the potential disintegration of Iraq itself, the Arab Spring, or the spread of extreme Islamic factions ever more widely in a vast region. The irony, of course, is that the Bush administration and the neocon types who set so much of this in motion used to refer to the Greater Middle East from North Africa to the Chinese border disparagingly as “the arc of instability.” Today, it increasingly looks like an arc of chaos and, as Nick Turse indicates, the process, far from ending, seems to be spreading -- in this case, deep into Africa. Turse, author of the recent bestseller Kill Anything That Moves: The Real American War in Vietnam, has been following the latest U.S. global command, AFRICOM, as it embeds American military power ever more fully on the African continent. (In the process, he has engaged in full-scale public debate with that command over the nature of what it is doing.) Today, he offers a magisterial overview of what can be known about the increasing American military presence in Africa and how it is continuing a now more than three-decade-old process of spurring destabilization, the growth of radical Islamic movements, and blowback in a new region of the planet.

Unsubscribe instructions are at the bottom of this email. Nicco Mele's new book, The End of Big, includes a chapter on the end of big journalism and how we're losing a lot of the investigative journalists as news operations size down or go bust. I've made a decision to build some tools to facilitate investigative journalism. My hope is to take the great community of citizen journalists we have at Opednews and to provide tools to help assemble and coordinate teams focusing on specific investigative targets. Read the rest here. It is an extraordinary miracle-- enabled by YOU-- that Opednews does what it does on so little funding. But we do need donations from-- not much, about $160 a day. That's tiny compared to what most progressive and liberal media sites look to raise. Your $5, $25, $50 or $100 donation makes a huge difference, let alone the extremely rare $200 or higher donations.

Perhaps, like Groucho Marx, they hope we will believe them instead of our own two lying eyes. As the Russian government made clear, Washington's accusation is not believable. No informed person could possibly believe it. No doubt, many Americans wearing patriotism on their sleeves will fall for Washington's latest lie, but no one else in the world will. Even Washington's NATO puppets calling for attacking Syria know that the justification for the attack is a lie. Talk Radio giants are claiming their propaganda is legally the same as 'bonafide news.' It will be, if the FCC says so. We must not allow that to happen. While fixated on sports, singing contests and network news, we're being lowered into our degradation. NSA, FBI, Homeland Security and CIA spooks shadow us for evidence of rebellion and espy nada. After inconsequential Occupy and Tea Party twitches, all is quiet. Those sign waving assemblies merely served a carthatic function, and even wore us out, without threatening the status quo at all. By Steven Jonas The Permanence of Permanent War, Part 1: Setting the Stage So what is the "War on Terror" (described some time ago by a retired Army general as the equivalent in terminology to a "War on Flanking Maneuvers") really about? Well it and the response to it are really about creating a state of Permanent War for the United States. This column is part 1 of my consideration of this subject. British authorities are scrambling to justify how they --- while hosting a global economic summit in 2009 --- spied on their guests with help from America's National Security Agency. Some UK media outlets seem a little spooked themselves in getting commentary on the incident. Clinton, whose wife is almost certain to run for president in 2016, shoved Obama out of his previous cautious stance on military action in Syria. In a rare act of disloyalty as a member of the club of former presidents, Clinton joined the chorus of war drum-beaters to persuade Obama to supply small arms to the rebel side of the Syrian civil war. We are losing the foundation of innocence until proven guilty. The assumption of innocence no longer exists in a surveillance state. Neither does a Constitution with a Fourth Amendment. Neither does habeas corpus or due process. All of those are things of value in the world of democratic men and women. The best Israel can hope for is that Assad holds on but only just. That would keep the regime in place, or boxed into its heartland, but sapped of the energy to concern itself with anything other than immediate matters of survival. It would be unable to offer help to Hizbullah, isolating the militia in Lebanon and cutting off its supply line to Iran. Annual report suggests law enforcement agencies accessed citizens' 'metadata' 293,501 times in last year Buzz had been hiding from the world for so long, he'd nearly forgotten his name. But then the highway he lived under collapsed, and he witnessed 6 deaths that the media wanted to bury. This series of stories began with the People's Mike, and any other concerted action, being declared illegal. The ripples from their reaction triggered a drive to change representational government from the bottom up, and that cannot be allowed. This article introduces and explains the Great March for Climate Action. Starting next year, 1000 people will march across the nation, from Los Angeles to Washington DC, to inspire society to address climate change. January 1, 2014 can't come fast enough for anyone with a pre-existing health condition and/or a high deductible health insurance policy that really provides nothing more than protection from bankruptcy. To give or not to give. Tampa Bay Times listed the 50 worst charities in the country. The names and financials will astound you. I consider myself reasonably well informed, and at least somewhat aware of how the world is going, which of course is not too great. But the one book I am gradually digesting makes it feel as if my eyes were closed tight and are now popping out of my head. Brief glimpse into Howard Zinn's "A Real People's History of the United States." By Sam Kephart Freedom on the Rocks: Tyranny versus Terrorism The REAL inside story on what the NSA is up to with its domestic spying agenda. Schooling Ourselves in an Unequal America - REBECCA STRAUSSNYTimes.com "Averages can be misleading. The familiar, one-dimensional story told about American education is that it was once the best system in the world but that now it's headed down the drain, with piles of money thrown down after it. The truth is that there are two very different education stories in America. The children of the wealthiest 10 percent or so do receive some of the best education in the world, and the quality keeps getting better. For most everyone else, this is not the case. America's average standing in global education rankings has tumbled not because everyone is falling, but because of the country's deep, still-widening achievement gap between socioeconomic groups. And while America does spend plenty on education, it funnels a disproportionate share into educating wealthier students, worsening that gap. The majority of other advanced countries do things differently, at least" The position of the Republican leaders does not bode well for a broad shift in the approach of Congress to questions about military adventures abroad. That's especially unfortunate at a time when the Obama administration is ramping up US support for Syrian rebels -- a move that should be checked and balanced by Congress. When President John F. Kennedy signed the Equal Pay Act into law in 1963, women earned 59 cents for every dollar earned by a man. While the wage gap has narrowed somewhat since then, women today still earn only 77 cents for every dollar a man earns. National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden answered questions from ordinary folks Monday on a Guardian newspaper online chat. It was a technical first of sorts -- a virtual public news conference by someone who's in a lot of trouble and does not wish to make public their precise location. So did he reveal anything new? Yes -- among other things, he charged that US lawmakers are themselves shielded against NSA snooping. He also was harshly critical of former VP Dick Cheney, who has called Snowden a "traitor" for his disclosure of NSA secrets. He said Cheney had supported the Bush administration's warrantless wiretapping as well as the Iraq War. "Being called a traitor by Dick Cheney is the highest honor you can give an American," said Snowden. Washington's decision to arm Syria's Sunni Muslim rebels has plunged America into the great Sunni-Shia conflict of the Islamic Middle East, entering a struggle that now dwarfs the Arab revolutions which overthrew dictatorships across the region. A military decision has been taken in Iran -- even before last week's presidential election -- to send a first contingent of 4,000 Iranian Revolutionary Guards to Syria to support President Bashar al-Assad's forces against the largely Sunni rebellion that has cost almost 100,000 lives in just over two years. Iran is now fully committed to preserving Assad's regime My traditional end-of-June article. Thia is the summer of Edward Snowden. By Tom Engelhardt Nick Turse, Blowback Central The other day, Hamid Karzai, the U.S.-supported Afghan president who was once sardonically nicknamed "the mayor of Kabul," had a few curious things to say about American policy in the Muslim world. Karzai, of course, is a man whose opinions -- whether on U.S. special operations forces and their (out of control) militias, U.S. night raids on Afghan homes, or U.S. air strikes on Afghan villages -- Washington loves to ignore. Exactly so. Regardless of your personal opinion about gay marriage and whether or not a person is "born this way," it is impossible to maintain that this group is less deserving of equal treatment under the law than their heterosexual counterparts. Yet, the vocal minority in the Rapture Right will argue just that, and will add that the Bible supports their bigotry. God loves everybody ... except homosexuals. By Dave Lefcourt Snowden to The Guardian, NSA and British Secretly Intercepted World Leaders Communications at 2009 Conference ![]() The latest treasure trove of NSA surveillance activities passed on to The Guardian by Ed Snowden has British Intelligence working directly w/ the NSA to eavesdrop on world leaders @ 2009 London conferences. They secretly tapped diplomat communications before Group of 8 industrial conferences and intercepted the communications of then Russian President Dmitri Medvedev; all approved by the FISA Court & shared w/ Congress. ![]() For our purposes, the precise nature of the self is not the main concern. What really matters is our experience of being that self. Is the experience pleasant or unpleasant? To what degree does that experience help us in regulating our emotions and behaviors? As we connect more with this self, we feel more pleasure in the simple fact of our existence. Lessons I've learned about life have shaped my thinking in my retirement years. Tom Engelhardt, You Are Our Secret As happens with so much news these days, the Edward Snowden revelations about National Security Agency (NSA) spying and just how far we've come in the building of a surveillance state have swept over us 24/7 -- waves of leaks, videos, charges, claims, counterclaims, skullduggery, and government threats. When a flood sweeps you away, it's always hard to find a little dry land to survey the extent and nature of the damage. ![]() Introducing Reverend Bruce Wright, on the Green Shadow Cabinet representing General Welfare, Executive Committee Member of the Poor People's Economic Human Rights Campaign and now Shadow Sheriff of Pinellas County. As being poor becomes more criminalized every day, Reverend Wright has become the champion of the poor. Working with Greens and others state wide he promotes peace, social justice and equal and fair treatment of the homeless, hungry and poor everywhere. Iran's outgoing president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, has been summoned to a criminal court in Tehran to answer unspecified charges following the victory of the moderate cleric Hassan Rouhani in Friday's presidential election. The news, initially announced by the government website dolat.ir, was the latest in a series of bruising setbacks for Ahmadinejad, who has fallen foul of his erstwhile patrons and lost a great deal of influence in Iranian politics. In a live Q&A with Guardian readers from a secret location in Hong Kong, Snowden did not directly answer a question about whether he had more unpublished material. But he said: "All I can say right now is the US government is not going to be able to cover this up by jailing or murdering me. Truth is coming, and it cannot be stopped." Snowden, who is in hiding at a safe house, spent nearly two hours taking questions on the Guardian website. His answered questions ranging from why he chose Hong Kong to his specific concerns about the Obama administration. The Supreme Court ruled Monday that states cannot on their own require would-be voters to prove they are U.S. citizens before using a federal registration system designed to make signing up easier. The court was considering the legality of Arizona's requirement that prospective voters document their U.S. citizenship in order to use a registration form produced under the federal "motor voter" registration law. Dave Lindorff and two other guests talk about the burgeoning US national security state on the RT-TV program "Crosstalk," which aired earlier in the day Monday. One of the best explanations of how the criminogenic environment causes repeated bank failures and economic collapses, and how current prescriptions will make things worse, not better, by super-regulator, Bill Black. "This is the fourth installment of my exploration of the work of Roger Myerson, Nobel Laureate in economics in 2007. It is part of what will be a broader series of articles exploring why economics is unique among the sciences in awarding the Prize to scholars whose predictive work proves profoundly wrong and leads to public policies that cause great harm. The first installment used Myerson's Prize lecture to explore his paean to plutocracy as the purported unique advantage of capitalism." |

“Quand ils vous demandent ce que nous gagnons avec la Coupe du monde, outre la joie de voir le Brésil jouer, outre la Coupe des confédérations où nous tous espérons voir le Brésil gagner, nous gagnons en améliorations dans la sécurité publique, nous gagnons avec tous ces travaux d’infrastructure qui sont essentiels comme le métro, les routes.”Le mouvement de protestation contre les mesures d’austérité du gouvernement s’est fait entendre partout au pays. Le coeur de l’éclosion sociale se trouve à Porto Alegre dans l’état du Rio Grande do Sul. Le 13 juin dernier des milliers de personnes étaient rassemblées devant l’hôtel de ville pour s’opposer à l’augmentation du tarif du transport public. En mars dernier, des milliers de citoyens avaient déjà protesté contre la hausse du prix du billet d’autobus passant de R$ 2,85 à R$ 3.85.
“Ce sont des travaux pour améliorer la ville. Cela peut (servir) momentanément pour les touristes mais pour le reste de la vie, ce sera pour améliorer la vie de la population brésilienne.”Samedi le 15 juin, à Brasillia, une manifestation a été réprimée dans la violence à l’ouverture de la Coupe des Confédérations (match Brésil-Japon). Les milliers de manifestants ont été dispersés à coups de matraques, de tirs de balle en caoutchouc et de gaz lacrymogène. Une manifestation avait également lieu à Rio de Janeiro juste avant le premier match de la Confédération entre l’Italie et le Mexique (le dimanche 16 juin).
“Temos visto issu também na Turquia e tenho toda a confiança nas autoridades” (Nous avons également vu ceci en Turquie et nous faisons confiance aux autorités.)Plus de la moitié de la population appuie les manifestations. (55 % selon un sondage du quotidien la Folha de Sao Paulo). Des manifestations d’une telle ampleur ne s’étaient pas vues depuis 1992 alors que la population exigeait l’impeachment de Collor de Mello dénonçant alors la corruption du gouvernement.
Le gouvernement brésilien a averti lundi 17 juin qu’il ne permettrait pas que des manifestations perturbent la Coupe des Confédérations de football, juste avant de nouveaux rassemblements pour protester contre l’augmentation du prix destransports publics et le coût du Mondial-2014. “Celui qui croit pouvoir empêcher la réalisation de ces événements fera face à la détermination du gouvernement de l’en empêcher. Les manifestations seront tolérées dans ces limites”, a prévenu le ministre des sports, Aldo Rebelo, lors d’un forum sur l’économie du football à Rio de Janeiro, en se référant à la Coupe des Confédérations et au Mondial.

“The [Assad] government, as the opposition is saying openly, is enjoying military success on the ground. The [Assad] regime isn’t driven to the wall. What sense is there for the regime to use chemical arms–especially in such small amounts.”Larov is a relatively civilized person in the role of Russia’s main diplomat. However, other Russian officials can be more pointed in their dismissal of Washington’s latest blatant lies. Yury Ushakov, an aide to Russian President Putin said: “The Americans tried to present us with information on the use of chemical weapons by the [Assad] regime, but frankly we thought that it was not convincing. We wouldn’t like to invoke references to [the infamous lies o] Secretary of State Powell [at the UN alleging Iraqi WMD], but the facts don’t look convincing in our eyes.” Aleksey Pushkov, the chairman of the Russian Duma’s Foreign Affairs Committee, cut to the chase.
“The data about Assad’s use of chemical weapons is fabricated by the same facility that made up the lies about Saddam Hussein’s weapons of mass destruction. Obama is walking George W. Bush’s path.”Here in America no one will ever hear straight talk like this from the US presstitutes.
