Iran Wins Iraqi Elections Seven Months Later
By Juan Cole

http://www.countercurrents.org/cole041010.htm

Although it make take some time yet to form a government in Iraq, Friday may have been a turning point. If so, it was a turning point in which Iran won decisively and managed to rebuild a Shiite fundamentalist coalition led by incumbent PM Nuri al-Maliki that, in partnership with the Kurds, could dominate Baghdad for the next four years


Iraq's Kurds Hold Political Cards For Al-Maliki
By Yahya Barzanji & Brian Murphy

http://www.countercurrents.org/murphy041010.htm

Kurdish lawmakers began Saturday to plot their course as Iraq's kingmakers with enough seats to secure a second term for Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki and press key demands, including a greater say over the oil riches in the country's north


Washington Moves To Thwart Sadrist Role
In A New Iraqi Government
By Barry Grey

http://www.countercurrents.org/grey041010.htm

The decision of the anti-US Shiite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr to throw his support behind caretaker Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki in the months-long stalemate over the formation of a new government in Iraq has set off a flurry of political jockeying within the country and sparked alarm in Washington


Lawless Arrests, Detentions And Torture In Iraq
By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman041010.htm

Thousands of civilians are victimized by imperial Washington's lawlessness. Human lives and welfare are thus sacrificed, a shocking indictment of America's true aim and employed means, abroad and at home. Obama is as culpable as Bush. Both are unindicted war criminals


U.S Homeland Fascism And  The Anti-Imperialist Struggle In The Philippines: Commemorating Howard Zinn
By E. San Juan, Jr.

http://www.countercurrents.org/juan041010.htm

Avalanches of FBI dragnet raids, house-searches and court summons recently devastated numerous homes and traumatized families across the country, bringing back horrendous memories of the McCarthy raids and COINTELPRO assassinations of the Cold War period


Surveillance, America's Pastime

A Hall of Shame of State Snooping, Prying, and Informing Aimed at Destroying the Fabric of Civil Society


Obama's Cave-In To Israel
By Jonathan Cook

http://www.countercurrents.org/cook041010.htm

The disclosure of the details of a letter reportedly sent by President Barack Obama last week to Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, will cause Palestinians to be even more sceptical about US and Israeli roles in the current peace talks. According to the leak, Obama made a series of extraordinarily generous offers to Israel, many of them at the expense of the Palestinians, in return for a single minor concession from Netanyahu: a two-month extension of the partial feeze on settlement growth


Lieberman's "Truth"
By Yacov Ben Efrat

http://www.countercurrents.org/efrat041010.htm

Lieberman said that a peace agreement between Israel and the Palestinians would be "achieved only decades from now." There is no reason to think that Netanyahu believes otherwise. Lieberman expresses the dominant spirit in Israel's government, and his speech exposed a fact known to all: he is himself the cement that binds Netanyahu's coalition

Days Before Birthday, My Son Sees Gaza's Horror
By Rami Almeghari

http://www.countercurrents.org/almeghari041010.htm

My dear son, I don't think this will be "enough" and I believe this is just the beginning in your life as a Palestinian, living amidst and witnessing constant violence


Piedad Córdoba And Her Fight For Peace
By Fidel Castro

http://www.countercurrents.org/castro041010.htm

Faced with such an unusual and drastic measure taken against an elected post in the highest legislative body of state, Piedad has no alternative other than appealing to the very Attorney General who produced the measures


The Real Significance Of The One Nation Rally
By Shamus Cooke

http://www.countercurrents.org/cooke041010.htm

Derailing this anger will be even harder from now on, since the One Nation demonstration proved that working people can unite together under a specific set of demands. This newfound unity can and will become the basis of future demonstrations organized by similar coalitions, against both the Democrat and Republican parties


Homophobia, Religion, And The Collapse Of
Industrial Civilization
By Carolyn Baker

http://www.countercurrents.org/baker041010.htm

Homophobia and oppressive belief systems are not new, but at this historical juncture, they are escalating in the context of the disintegration of industrial civilization and the paradigm that has fostered it for nearly 5,000 years. This means that their influence is almost guaranteed to intensify and therefore, so too must our response


Economic Inequity, Manufactured Populism,
And The Bigot-Whisperers Of The Right
By Phil Rockstroh

http://www.countercurrents.org/rockstroh041010.htm

The paranoid, domestic douchescape works in the service of the US created deathscapes overseas and vice versa in a self-resonating feedback loop. Therefore, whenever the neoliberal economic policies of corporate oligarchy and the empire's ever expanding military industrial/national security/surveillance/prison complex are questioned, many conservatives personalize the critique. In their gut, they feel as if their identity is under attack


U.S. War Crimes In Kandahar
By Dr. Habib Siddiqui

http://www.countercurrents.org/siddiqui041010.htm

As we have witnessed before with Abu Ghraib, rogue foot soldiers like Gibbs and Morlock are now investigated for their war crimes in Kandahar. However, as long as those on the top, the likes of Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Ashcroft, and Rice continue to escape justice for their war crimes, and formulating laws and policies that laid down the very foundation for such horrendous crimes, we won't be surprised to see or hear resurrection of the old crimes over and over again


UN/AU Continues Somali Slaughter
By Thomas C. Mountain

http://www.countercurrents.org/mountain041010.htm

For over a year now the United Nations/African Union troops in Mogadishu, so called "peacekeepers", have been regularly firing mortars and artillery into Somali neighborhoods in retaliation for attacks by the Somali resistance. "Peacekeepers" firing artillery into civilian neighborhoods? "Peacekeepers" killing untold thousands of innocent women and children whose only crime was being Somali and living within range of the UN/AU artillery? You have to wonder, are these Peace Keepers or Peace Killers?


Retrograde Judgement Rewards Hindutva Zealots
By Anand Teltumbde

http://www.countercurrents.org/teltumbde041010.htm

The parallel may not be palatable to everyone but the recent verdict of the Allahabad bench of the Lucknow high court may be compared with a case that was decided some eight decades ago in a small colonial court of Mahad in Maharashtra. Like this one, which has great implication to our secular fabric the Mahad judgement pivoted the future of a nascent movement launched by the Untouchables for securing their civil rights


Babri Masjid Verdict: Justice Still Not Done
By Dr. Satinath Choudhary

http://www.countercurrents.org/choudhary041010.htm

The legal system has joined the strong bullies, saying: yes, yes, two third of the piece of land belongs to the rogues. And the purveyors of peace and amity and magnanimity are clapping for the blatantly unfair judgment as if it was one of the greatest balancing act done by the justices


Ayodhya: Where 1=2
By Farzana Versey

http://www.countercurrents.org/versey041010.htm

My mind is numb. The Ramayana myth-faith is now winging its way into the judicial books, but it is Shylock that has claimed the pound of flesh


"Long" Live Capitalist Humanism
By Farooque Chowdhury

http://www.countercurrents.org/chowdhury041010.htm

Should not the world humanity question: What are the compulsions that make capital behave in the brutal, inhuman way? What it is character of this political-economy that creates logic, perceptions and drive which do not consider humanity and life as considerable? Why science in this particular political-economy stands against humanity? Have not its all standings been forfeited yet? Then, "slaves" tomorrow shall rise up in all corners and pronounce their distrust on all the values the Empire upholds as Spartacus asked a Roman soldier to convey to the Roman senate

The Forest Rights Act Released
By Campaign for Survival and Dignity

http://www.countercurrents.org/csd041010.htm

The Council for Social Development has released a summary report on the implementation of the Forest Rights Act.  It is one of the few official or unofficial reports to emerge so far that accurately covers the wide range of problems, sabotage and attacks on forest democracy that are occurring
