New WikiLeaks Documents Expose US Foreign Policy Conspiracies
By David Walsh

http://www.countercurrents.org/walsh291110.htm

The batch of 250,000 US classified documents released by WikiLeaks to several news outlets, some of whose content was made public Sunday, sheds new light on the sordid nature of American imperialist intrigue and conspiracy around the globe

By Aljazeera

http://www.countercurrents.org/aljazeera291110.htm

"They Can File A Charge Posthumously Against
Jawaharlal Nehru Too"
By Arundhati Roy

http://www.countercurrents.org/roy291110.htm

My reaction to today's court order directing the Delhi Police to file an FIR against me for waging war against the state: Perhaps they should posthumously file a charge against Jawaharlal Nehru too. Here is what he said about Kashmir


Mohamed Osman Mohamud: Terrorist Or Victim?
By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman291110D.htm

Most important is why perhaps was another innocent man incited, duped, set up, and now charged with what he may never have conceived of doing otherwise. Moreover, did he really want to detonate a bomb, or are key facts willfully concealed, especially the truth?


Hope, Real Hope, Is About Doing Something
By Chris Hedges

http://www.countercurrents.org/hedges291110.htm

On Dec. 16 I will join Daniel Ellsberg, Medea Benjamin, Ray McGovern and several military veteran activists outside the White House to protest the futile and endless wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Many of us will, after our rally in Lafayette Park, attempt to chain ourselves to the fence outside the White House. It is a pretty good bet we will all spend a night in jail. Hope, from now on, will look like this


Oceans Of Blood And Profits
For The Mongers Of War
By Robert Fisk

http://www.countercurrents.org/fisk291110.htm

Coming soon to a war near you; oceans of blood, bodies torn to shreds, of course. But bring your credit card. Or a cheque book. It's big business. And there may be profits


Candidly Speaking: The De-Zionization Of
Anglo Jewry
By Alan Hart

http://www.countercurrents.org/hart291110.htm

The main reason for the silence of the Jews of the world is the unspeakable fear – the product of persecution through the centuries and, after the Nazi holocaust, Zionism's manipulation of the fear – that another great turning against them is inevitable. That being so, if only in their sub-consciousness, they perceive the need for Israel as their refuge of last resort. So say nothing and do nothing that could assist Israel's enemies and put that insurance policy at risk


The Original Sin
By Uri Avnery

http://www.countercurrents.org/avnery291110.htm

Zionism was, among other things, a rebellion against the Jewish religion. It was born in sin – the sin of secular nationalism, which had swept through Europe after the French revolution


Cancún Opens For GREEN Business But REDD
Will Destroy Indigenous Forest Cultures
By Subhankar Banerjee

http://www.countercurrents.org/banerjee291110A.htm

The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCC) COP16 opens this week in Cancún, Mexico to discuss green business (November 29 – December 10, 2010). No one is expecting any global climate treaty to be signed at this conference. However there is hope that some progress could be made


Thankful For Polar Bear Habitat
But Shell Must Not Go There
By Subhankar Banerjee

http://www.countercurrents.org/banerjee291110B.htm

Shell launched a massive ad campaign earlier this month. I'm sure somewhere you must have seen the Shell ad "Let's Go." I'd say "Let's" instead make sure Shell doesn't "Go" anywhere near the polar bear critical habitat


Imperial America's End Time
By Stephen Lendman

Noted analysts on both left and right see America's empire in decline


The New York Times: What Passes For
Journalism In The Newspaper Of Record
By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman291110C.htm

Overall, America's major media fails the test. It's biased, shameless, and irresponsible with "everything to sell and nothing to tell" as a noted US media critic once said. It delivers a daily diet of "managed news" (propaganda), infotainment, and "junk food news," a worthless mix, treating people like mushrooms - well-watered, in the dark, and uninformed about what matters most. No wonder greater numbers opt out, consuming less broadcast "news" and print media, the kind no one should waste time or money on


Oscar Lopez Rivera: Imprisoned For
Supporting Puerto Rican Independence
By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman291110B.htm

On May 29, 1981, Oscar Lopez Rivera was arrested, the FBI calling him one of America's most feared fugitives. Accused of being an FALN leader, he neither confirmed or denied it, affirming only his nonviolent activism. At trial, he refused to participate, declaring himself a "prisoner of war."


Enhanced Airport Screening Controvery
By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman291110A.htm

All travelers are at risk, especially pregnant women, their fetuses, young children, cancer patients, HIV-positive flyers, and anyone over 65. Calling the technology safe is untrue, yet the Obama administration deceitfully does it. However, not without growing criticism


Haiti's Deepening Cholera Crisis
By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman291110.htm

From October 22 to November 21, MSF teams treated 29,000 people in cholera treatment centers (CTCs), established in Port-au-Prince, Artibonite region (where the first outbreak occurred), North, and Northwest with a 2% or less case fatality rate


The People Friendly Police?
By Gladson Dungdung

http://www.countercurrents.org/dungdung291110.htm

The recent brutal killing of Dhirendra Kumar in Barwada police station clearly indicates of how the police stations have become the safest place of inhuman treatment, torture and brutal killings
