Habbash was the leader of a group that claimed that violent action was needed to confront the dominance of Israel. The PFLP formed and trained an army of an estimated 3000 guerrillas to fight what was seen as the “scientific” [...] ...

Fears Of “Islamization” Unite Far-Right EU Bloc 2008-01-26 06:43:11 Heads of 4 European far-right parties have taken it upon themselves to unite, in order to protect us from the threat of Islamization. Maybe we haven’t had enough fears of anything-Islam piled on our shaking shoulders already. The limitless zealots of the Iraq war insurgency (as opposed to enraged civilians) seeking to penetrate, and decapitate the [...] ...

Nailing The Coffin Shut 2008-01-25 16:00:29 Under pressure from the U.S and Israel, the Egyptian border was ordered sealed. Palestinians had been streaming into Egypt to buy the bear necessities. But Egypt cannot hold the Palestinians at bay for long. A Palestinian truck broke through the border and civilians are flocking into Egypt. Not on some senseless rampage, but to survive. [...] ...

U.S To Consider Pakistan Troop Displacement 2008-01-25 06:56:47 The U.S Secretary of Defense Robert Gates has announced that combat-ready troops are ready to enter Pakistan to help native forces battle Al-Qaeda. Despite the offered aid, Musharraf has previously announced that any foreign fighters landing in his soil would be labeled as an act of war. Something Senator Obama might wish to consider, come his [...] ...

Martial Law And The Police State 2008-01-24 07:07:11 Many of you may or may not be aware of the construction of massive detention camps inside the U.S and Alaska. Most are able to detain around 200,000 people. Some, like the the one near Fairbanks in Alaska, ready to accommodate up to 2 million people. The justification being that in the event of a large [...] ...

What’s The Weather Like On Iran? 2008-01-23 16:17:40 Your case for Iran seems be lacking substance this time around. With the advent of the N.I.E, the case for war seems to be crumbling. As I’ve mentioned before, could it be your allies the Israelis who man the war-helm? Your credibility seems to be somewhat shaken. You’ve made two W.M.D cases, and had them both [...] ...

The Internet and Sharia Law 2008-01-23 09:50:29 Afghanistan. I find it ironic, that in a country where the western world touted “Democracy for all”, has shown once again what the reality on the ground is like. We remember the pictures of men of all ages flocking to the barber shop to cut their hair in the new “Freedom” trend. Yet despite news laws [...] ... Internet

John “The Nice-Guy” Edwards 2008-01-22 07:37:17 It is with a mix of amusement and disgust that I watch the South Carolina Democratic debate. Clinton and Obama steal the stage once again with their outbursts, providing a plethora of media attention (and fodder for hecklers). In the corner however, stands a resolute John “Nice-Guy” Edwards. The third party, the largely ignored yet [...] ...

Holy Christian War 2008-01-21 18:31:02 I stumbled quite casually upon this God is Pro-War article this evening. Ultimately I decided to click, I felt I needed to read something written in jest to alleviate the stresses of the day. To my amazement the article is serious, deadly serious in fact. The article itself is written by a Rev. Jerry Falwell. [...] ...

Possibility of Israeli Strike on Iran? 2008-01-21 09:33:30 Some of us have forgotten the ominous words uttered by Dick Cheney at the outset of Bush’s second term. “One of the concerns people have is that Israel might do it without being asked… Given the fact that Iran has a stated policy that their objective is the destruction of Israel, the Israelis might well [...] ...

Lights-Out In Gaza 2008-01-20 16:16:21 Israels decision to close the Gaza border has meant that fuel and humanitarian aid (amongst other things) are not reaching their destinations. Due to the shortage of fuel, Gaza’s only power-plant was shutdown pitching at least 800,000 of its 1.5million residents in darkness. When I say darkness, I refer not only to the lighting of candles [...] ...

Freedom’s On The Menu 2008-01-20 07:15:37 How clearly do you remember 2003? A year that marked a resurgence in militant nationalism. Iraq becoming the deer in America’s highlights, the vehicle through which a nation would heal and bring justice to the world. But not everyone felt like being a cog in the war. Countries such as France voiced their skepticism at America’s [...] ...

Iran War Getting Closer - What Lies Behind the Hormuz Incident? 2008-01-19 16:10:44 Can you feel it? The Iran war is getting closer. The rhetoric is stepping up, and the background chatter is increasing and increasing. But what’s the source of the chatter and the rhetoric? The Hormuz incident is one in a long string of (sometimes successful) attempts to justify the aggression that is mounting towards Iran. Let’s [...] ...

Newspeak: The War For Your Mind 2008-01-19 11:05:17 I’m sure we’re all familiar with Orwellian Newspeak as a political tool. Many blame the president’s “obvious” lack of intelligence as the cause. As if his fluency of Newspeak is at all unintentional. When we consider that Newspeak is quite simply the abolition of all shades of gray in our language, all its meaning. We understand [...] ...
