The Arab Spring continues, freedom prevails, and democracy will now take its rightful place on Libya’s throne; the price for such an achievement was a miniscule amount of blood that continues today and the foreseeable future. These ‘freedom starved’ rebels once assumed the other side of the Imperialist’s barrel. They were once Al Kayda (Bush [...]

 Jeff Prager: This is a very simple math equation. The numbers: Bush 1, Bush 2, Obama, Clinton and rest of the Capitalist crew have imprisoned 2 million Americans and murdered another 8,000 in Iraq and Afghanistan. We have several thousand political prisoners in the …USA.  They killed 1 million Iraq’s outright and another 500,000 Iraqi [...]

The euphoria of the Arab spring has settled and has been replaced with the despondency of colonial pursuits. The war against Qaddafi has morphed from a humanitarian endeavour to a savage hunt. NATO has blatantly violated the provisions of UN Security Resolution 1973; the imposition of a no-fly zone has mushroomed into a vendetta against [...]

As I stroke the keys on my phone, the U.S. and other allied nations have bombed installations in Libya to implement a no-fly zone. Make no mistake this action will serve, as fodder to those elements currently fighting Western occupation in the region. The mere utterance of support from allied Arab nations does not in [...]

The Arab world has recently undergone events that were once blasphemous to dream about; the toppling of Tunisia’s strongman Ben Ali has appeared to propagate a pandemic of revolutionary fever. Egyptians have been marching the streets to demand the ouster of Hosni, Mubarak, who has autocratically ruled for over 30 years. Various factions of Egyptian [...]

Secretary of State, Hilary Clinton has concluded a stint to the Middle East, which included a contemptuous message to Arab rulers on the pervasiveness of corruption. Her message was definitely geared to the right audience, given the despotic dynastic rule of many Arab states; however, Clinton’s sermon does not have a real prospect of being [...]
