Punishing Bradley Manning For The Crimes Of Others
By David Swanson

http://www.countercurrents.org/swanson220111.htm

Bradley Manning, alleged U.S. Army whistleblower, is in two ways -- one likely, the other certain -- being punished for the crimes of others


If Britain Starts Fuel Rationing, Could US Be Next?
By Erik Curren

http://www.countercurrents.org/curren220111.htm

This week, a group of the British parliament released a plan to start rationing fuel within the next ten years. Could the US follow suit?


The Last Industrial Civilization
By Peter Goodchild

http://www.countercurrents.org/goodchild220111.htm

Both the US and China seem good candidates for the Last Stand of industrialized humanity, but the two countries have almost opposite problems. It's a case of Tweedledum and Tweedledee, of whether it is better to suffer from one syndrome or another


What If We Stopped Fighting For Preservation
And Fought Economic Growth Instead?
By Tim Murray

http://www.countercurrents.org/murray220111.htm

Biodiversity is primarily threatened by human expansion, which may be defined as the potent combination of a growing human population and its growing appetite for resources. Economic growth is the root cause of environmental degradation, and fighting its symptoms is the Labor of Sisyphus


The Methodical Shooting Of Boys At Work In Gaza
By Snipers Of The Israeli Occupation Force
By David S Halpin

http://www.countercurrents.org/halpin220111.htm

According to a UN study, between January 2009 and August 2010, at least 22 Palestinian civilians in Gaza have been killed and 146 injured in the arbitrary live fire zone adjacent to the border with Israel and imposed at sea. At least 27 of these civilians were children


NIAI Bill, Wikileaks, World Bank
And L-1 Identities Solution
By Gopal Krishna

http://www.countercurrents.org/krishna220111.htm

I submit that the leakage of electronically stored data is inevitable. The UID Number project is going to do almost exactly the same thing which the predecessors of Adolf Hitler did, else how is it that Germany always had the lists of Jewish names even prior to the arrival of the Nazis? The Nazis got these lists with the help of IBM which was in the 'census' business that included racial census that entailed not only count the Jews but also identifying them


Supreme Court Comments On Conversion
Are Unconstitutional
By CPI(ML)

http://www.countercurrents.org/cpiml220111.htm

In punishing the act of murder of Staines, the SC has effectively justified and upheld the purported motive of the murder. It is disturbing and dangerous that the apex court should appear to reinforce the prejudices against conversion propagated by communal outfits and legitimise the notion that Christian missionaries need to be 'taught a lesson.'


The Increasingly Volatile Pre Trial
Phase Of The Lebanon Tribunal
By Franklin Lamb

http://www.countercurrents.org/lamb220111.htm

It appears that no acceptable compromise regarding the divergent Lebanese political stances relative to the Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL) will be achieved. Support for this hypothesis can be found in the past 24 hours activities of the would-be mediators


Heightened Tensions After
Hariri Indictment Announced
By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman220111A.htm

Whoever knows who killed Hariri, an "awful lot of Lebanese are breathless....not to find out." It'll be weeks before names are known, but already clear Israel will be absolved despite credible whitewashed evidence


Bizarre Developments in Haiti
By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman220111B.htm

Obama embraces the same Bush agenda, flaunting international and US law, denying Haitians democratic freedoms, Aristide his right to return, and if Boyle is right, conspiring with France to reestablish Duvalier despotism, exacerbating Haiti's many other problems


Bangladesh: Moshrefa Mishu's

By William Gomes

http://www.countercurrents.org/gomes220111.htm

Workers, Civil society people and leftist political leaders Friday demanded immediate and unconditional release of labour rights activist Moshrefa Mishu and other leaders who were illegally arrested on false charges of their involvement in recent unrest in country's apparel sector
