Barak And Netanyahu Kill Off Israel's Labor Party
By Jonathan Cook

http://www.countercurrents.org/cook180111.htm

Ehud Barak, Israel's defence minister, appears to have driven the final nail in the coffin of the Zionist left with his decision to split from the Labor party and create a new "centrist, Zionist" faction in the Israeli parliament. So far four MPs, out of a total of 12, have announced they are following him. The Israeli media suggested that the true architect of the Labor party's split was the prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu


Hezbollah's Nasrallah Could Be Right
By Alan Hart

http://www.countercurrents.org/hart180111.htm

It's not impossible that Hezbollah's leader Hassan Nasrallah was right when he described the tribunal investigating the assassination of Lebanon's Prime Minister Rafik Hariri in 2005 as "an American and Israeli tool"


Wealth Is No Protection Against
Future Dangers - Part II
By Lionel Anet

http://www.countercurrents.org/anet180111.htm

We can't survive in a competitive milieu as it waste resources, trashes the planet, necessitates secrecy, entices deceit, lies and character assassination. They are all the attributes for a miserable future and even extinction. As we are a part of one world, the more united and cooperative we are, the better we can deal with difficult situation


Peak Prices Or Production Peak? Ominous Signs
For Oil At The Start Of 2011
By Peter Custers

http://www.countercurrents.org/custers180111.htm

Ominous signs were there right at the beginning of the year. On January the 3rd, it was reported that the world price of crude oil had reached its highest level in two years. The price of a barrel of brent oil was stated to be 94.84 Dollars. This, energy analysts were quick to point out, represented a more than two hundred percent increase over the price of crude at the beginning of last year


The Ultimate Oxymoron: Industrial Civilization
And Mental Health
By Carolyn Baker

http://www.countercurrents.org/baker180111.htm

The paradigm of industrial civilization is inherently mad and proliferates mad people. Many of us have been called "crazy" for the past decade because we have named the madness of civilization and where it is taking us. Today, we may be perceived as "less crazy" since most of what we forecasted is now everyday, tangible reality—just as we said it would be. As industrial civilization accelerates its death spiral, our work is to imagine a new world of connectedness and to become a new human species


Serf's Up! Workers Wiped Out
While Wealthy Ride Economic Tidal Wave
By Mary Lynn Cramer

http://www.countercurrents.org/cramer180111.htm

Our solution is not to give up on demanding an end to the wars, or more jobs with good wages and benefits, universal health care, the preservation of social security, continued funding of public schools, or respect for civil rights and human rights. But our solution must address the larger context within which all these individual issues and concerns exist


In The Crosshairs
By Tom Engelhardt

http://www.countercurrents.org/engelhardt180111.htm

We in the United States have few doubts about who the aliens on this planet are: Them! (the title of a classic 1954 sci-fi movie about monstrous mutant ants that infest the sewer system of Los Angeles). In my childhood, "them" was "the commies," of course. Now, it's certainly Muslims or jihadists or Islamo-fascists


"Death TV" And The Patriot
By James Rothenberg

http://www.countercurrents.org/rothenberg180111.htm

We are a marvel of technological killing power, an achievement that has kept us at the top of the world heap, despite our marked decline in economic power. Further, it can be reasoned that our continued decline in economic power will be matched with increased development of this technological killing power – and not only that but an increased impetus to display and use it. It's either that or relinquish the top, a not too desirable outcome by the ruling elite


From Tunisia To Palestine, The Cause Of
Freedom And Human Dignity Is One
By Salim Nazzal

http://www.countercurrents.org/nazzal180111.htm

The vast majority of Arab observers agree that even if it is difficult to know to where things would go in the future what is sure that the Arab region is not the same after the Tunisian revolution


Why Tunisia Changed The World
By Shamus Cooke

http://www.countercurrents.org/cooke180111.htm

Tunisia woke up the Middle East with a thundering yawn. After years of domination by western-backed tyrants, the working people of the Arab world are rising from slumber. Once fully awake and aware of their surroundings, they'll shake off the influence of the western nations with a collective flick of the wrist


Discovering The Radical Vision Of
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
By Billy Wharton

http://www.countercurrents.org/wharton180111.htm

Discovering the radical message in the writings of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. is no easy task for secular leftists. It requires a leap into the world of Black Christian theology, a long tradition that has inspired multiple attempts at emancipation – from the slave revolt of Nat Turner to the modern Civil Rights movement


Martin Luther King And The Palestinians
By Dr. Elias Akleh

http://www.countercurrents.org/akleh180111.htm

I, too, have a dream shared by many other Palestinians, Arabs, and people from other nations, that Jews, Christians, and Muslims can live peacefully and harmoniously in a free democratic Palestinian state under one constitution that guarantees equality to all citizens, who could then join hands and also sing "Free at last"

Tiranga For Muslims And Safron For Hindus
By Shamsul Islam

http://www.countercurrents.org/islam180111.htm

The RSS/BJP gang is once again on to its old pastime of whipping up frenzy against Muslims. They plan to unfurl, Tricolour, the Indian National Flag in Srinagar on January 26, 2011. It may not be out of context to know that BJP and its RSS mentors who are so zealous about hoisting Tricolour in Srinagar have least respect for Tricolour as we will see from the following documentary evidences available in the RSS archives


Flagging Confidence: Waving The Tricolour In Kashmir
By Faisal Khan

http://www.countercurrents.org/khan180111.htm

why does Kashmir politely decline this symbolic sham of hoisting of tricolour at Lal Chowk? Why do Kashmiris say: 'Do not place the right flag on a wrong pole? Why do the CM and army have to prevent this 'auspicious' and heady event from happening? The answer is that Kashmir is not India. It is not Kolkata. It is not Chandigrah. It is not Jammu Tawi or Kathwa
