Iraq - War Logs Reflections- Part1
By Layla Anwar

http://www.countercurrents.org/anwar231010.htm

This is what happened yesterday to Iraqis who felt so alone with their Truth - they sighed a little relief and hoped to sleep with a little peace, hoping like I did, that maybe, just maybe they will be woken up from their solitary nightmare....

By Sampath Perera

http://www.countercurrents.org/perera231010.htm

Weimar In Jerusalem
By Uri Avnery

http://www.countercurrents.org/avnery231010.htm

I don't know if the Berlin exhibition tries to answer these questions. Perhaps not. Even now, 77 years later, there is no final answer to the question: Why did the German republic collapse? This is an all-important question, because now people in Israel are asking, with growing concern: Is the Israeli republic collapsing?


The Violence Debate: Teaching The Oppressed
How To Fight Oppression
By Ramzy Baroud

http://www.countercurrents.org/baroud231010.htm

Only the unique experience of the Palestinian people and their genuine struggle for freedom could yield what Palestinians as a collective deem appropriate for their own. This is what happened with the people of India, France, Algeria and South Africa, and many others nations that sought and eventually attained their freedom

And The Indigenous Movements
By Benjamin Dangl

http://www.countercurrents.org/dangl231010.htm

Indigenous movements protested a right wing coup attempt on September 30 th while criticizing the negative policies of Correa, a president widely considered a member of Latin America's new left who is working to implement modern democratic socialism. How did it come to this? The history of the dance between Correa and the indigenous movements offers insight into the current political crisis in the country


Climate Change Denial - Scrabble
By Bill Henderson

http://www.countercurrents.org/henderson231010.htm

A wiki process has already been proposed to help speed up and improve the IPCC review of climate science . If President Obama asked the AAAS or NAS to facilitate this science innovation an American lead global initiative to finally get serious about effective mitigation might become possible within a very short time considering we've wasted at least several decades in denial


Immanuel Wallerstein's Worldview
By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman231010.htm

America "has been a fading global power since the 1970s, and the US response to the (9/11) terrorist attacks has accelerated this decline....the economic, political and military factors that contributed to US hegemony are the same factors that will inexorably produce the coming US decline."


UN Peacekeepers Complicit In Sex Trade
By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman231010A.htm

In the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), for example, where MONUC (renamed MONUSCO in July 2010) never brought peace and stability, and may be involved in reports of mass rapes and other atrocities. It wouldn't be the first time there or elsewhere


Bhagwat Puran of A Different Kind :
Conflating Hinduism and Hindutva
By Subhash Gatade

http://www.countercurrents.org/gatade231010.htm

It is imperative that before getting confused with what Mr Bhagwat wants to convey , it would be definitely helpful if one refers to this classic monograph and understand for herself / himself that when we say Hindutva terror then it is does not at all mean all those people who have deep faith in principles of Hinduism. Just as Islam and Political Islam cannot be considered equivalent, Hinduism and Hindutva cannot be measured on the same scale


Majority Report Of MOEF Committe
A Vindication Of Peoples Just Struggle
Against POSCO Porject
By Ashok Chowdhury, Dr. Manoranjan Mohanty & Leo F. Saldanha

http://www.countercurrents.org/saldanha231010.htm

For project affected communities, the Committee's majority findings are a strong vindication of their resolute stand that the POSCO project represents the worst form of development – where our nation's resources are looted, our environment is devastated and Transnational Corporations walk away with tonnes of money, and not merely our iron ore
