06.03.09. WE DON'T NEED THE GENERAL MOTORS CORPORATION. By Mike Ferner . The entity known as General Motors Corporation is a legal fiction, a device most adept at concentrating economic and political power, buying off elected officials, opposing seat belts, pollution controls and higher mileage - while handing out executive lifestyles to make a pharaoh blush. 05.27.09. Militarism and Children. Worth 1,000 Words After Memorial Day. By Mike Ferner. So many opportunities for "personal growth." Like a job in a depression -- now, that's a great opportunity. Can't get work, hey, join the imperial centurians and go hunt down and kill kids out there on the fringes of empire in some place like Afghanistan where kids just like you can't find a job either and have the opportunity for "personal growth" offered to them by some mullah & madrassa...

04.25.09 Springtime? Or January Thaw? By Zoltan Zigedy. The Marxist point is this: Capitalist states must individually strive for restoring economic health. The national differences are too great to devise a universal and common strategy. Moreover, cooperation for some greater good is beyond the logic of capitalist competitive advantage. 04.21.09 The Politics of The New York Times. By Stephen Gowans. The New York Times use of the Doha Center to provide ostensibly independent commentary is emblematic of the Western media practice of drawing on experts offered up by ruling class think-tanks and foundation-funded-NGOs to propagate ruling class positions under the guise of providing independent analysis.
The Doha Center is another instrument of mind control financed by imperilist state agencies and private capitalists.

10.23.08 It's Our Turn Now: Resitance as it It Really Mattered.

Wake up - American TV and newspapers impudently deceive you!
08.14.08 Putin Walks into a Trap. By Mike Whitney. The real aim was to lure the Russian army into a trap.

10/07/07 IMPRESSIONS OF DPR KOREA. Part 1: "We are not jealous of anyone." By Irina Malenko.
North Korea is, effectively, the Russia we lost. But better, morally cleaner, more natural. It is possible that our country was like this in the 50s. IMPRESSIONS OF KOREA. INTRODUCTION. By Irina Malenko. Translated from Spanish by Jenny James. It's a long while since I felt as calm and relaxed as I do in North Korea. In the streets I see normal people, well dressed, modest working women, happy with their lives, people who like to laugh at a good joke and who live a rich cultural life which is not within reach of the majority of the population in Western countries, people who in no way resemble the fanatical robots the Western press describes them as. Impresiones coreanas (Introduccion). Irina Malenko. ?Ah, ese Occidente ... no hay por donde cogerlo! “Es pecado burlarse de un invalido” ?Hay tanto que no entiende de este mundo! Todo lo que no se le somete le da miedo. Todo lo que se sale de los canones por el establecidos le parece anormal. Y efectivamente, ?como van a comprender algo como la estima a un presidente por los habitantes de un pais, cuando sus propios presidentes, o bien practican el diablo sabe que con sus becarias en el lugar de trabajo, o bien no son capaces ni de comerse una galleta sin atragantarse? Impresiones coreanas (1? parte: “No envidiamos a nadie”). Irina Malenko. Corea del Norte hoy es, efectivamente, la Rusia que perdimos. Solo que mejor, moralmente mas limpia, mas natural. Es posible que asi fuera nuestro pais en los anos 50; yo, por desgracia, solo se de esos anos a traves de los relatos de mi madre; no tuve suerte, naci mas tarde.
09/22/07 Third Barbarossa

04/29/07 Anti-communism 101 from Tallinn, Estonia By Dave SilverThe removal of the symbol of the Soviet defeat of German fascism would enhance the chances of Estonia to join NATO, the European Union and be part of global capital and good relations with the IMF and World Bank.

By Stephen Gowans.The battlefield of human rights isn’t one in which the object of Left forces should be the securing of absolute rights for all (for there is no such thing as liberty and democracy for all) but the securing of the rights of oppressed classes and nations at the expense of those of their enemies. 12.30.06 Saddams Execution : The western anti war movement - the left boot of imperialism? By "Kola." The silence of the western antiwar movement on the lynching of Saddam Hussein is deafening and is increasingly beginning to prove what a lot of discerning people have suspected all along – that the mainstream anti-war movement (including large parts of its left wing) in the west is the well concealed left boot of western imperialism, the conscience of the conqueror. 12. 13.06 The All-American Girl from the CIA and Hizb ut-Tahrir. By Valentin Zorin. Fiona Hill and her colleagues predicted and hoped that Chechnya would become Russia's "tomb" (Anatol Lieven). Instead, Chechnya has become Russia's resurrection.

The "Troika" of IPROG (left to right): Boris Kagarlitsky, Ilia Ponomarev, and Anton Surikov 07.14.06 Russia's Fifth Column: An unnatural alliance: Russian 'liberals,' commies, and neo-Nazis unite against Putin. By Justin Rajmondo. It is perfectly natural for these political bandits to band together in a union of the bought-and-paid-for, for all of them are willing to sell their talents, such as they are, and their souls (such as they are) to the highest bidder. And who could outbid the U.S. government? 05.01.06 Lobster for Iran. By Israel Shamir.In this post-modernist age, when the Vagina Monologues have entered the matinee repertoire, it is not that easy to epater the increasingly blase bourgeoisie.

By Peter Dale Scott. 10.10.05 Russian Military Oligarch Accuses the CIA and MI-6 of Flooding Russia with Drugs. Officially, the British are supposed to fight poppy cultivation in Afghanistan.

By Dr. H. Salary. Discrepancy between our extraordinary scientific achievements and the way we behave in our societies is dangerous and dreadful. 21.07.05 French and Dutch Freeze Global Capitalism. By Bobby Summers. The success of the “No” campaign was a victory for a substantive politics based on analysis, dialogue, and action. Through thoughtful, careful and persistent discussion, the “No” campaign was able to “strip the veneer” off the EU constitution. With the veneer gone, citizens became increasingly aware that European Union offered them nothing but sacrifice and insecurity, all in the interests of building a leaner and more competitive European free-market economy. Kagarlitsky: Surikov is a military man. This is a man who collaborates with and in the past belonged to organizations like GRU. He follows his orders.
