Has Peak Oil Come To The Non-Opec World? Maybe
 By Christopher Helman

http://www.countercurrents.org/helman010911.htm

The big non-OPEC producers of 31 million bpd (out of a worldwide total of roughly 86 million bpd) saw their output fall 4% in the second quarter of 2011


A Billion Vehicles And Peak Oil
 By Tom Whipple

http://www.countercurrents.org/whipple010911.htm

Last month Wards Auto published a story pointing out that the world's motor vehicle count was now over 1 billion. As could be expected, registered vehicles in China grew by 27.5 percent to 78 million last year


The Way The Future Wasn't
 By John Michael Greer

http://www.countercurrents.org/greer010911.htm

So much of the near future has been defined in advance by choices already made and opportunities long since foregone that it's not at all hard to sketch out the resulting shape of things


Libya And The World We Live In
 By William Blum

http://www.countercurrents.org/blum010811.htm

The Holy Triumvirate — The United States, NATO and the European Union — recognizes no higher power and believes, literally, that it can do whatever it wants in the world, to whomever it wants, for as long as it wants, and call it whatever it wants, like "humanitarian"


Libya's Next Fight: Overcoming Western Designs
 By Ramzy Baroud

http://www.countercurrents.org/baroud010911.htm

The Libya that inspired the world is capable of overcoming NATO's stratagems, if it becomes aware of NATO's true intentions in Libya and the desperate attempt to thwart or hijack Arab revolts

Another perspective on the ouster of Gaddafi


Some Europeans: STOLT OG FRJÁLS FÓLK,
 LOS INDIGNADOS and OI AGANAKTISMENOI
 (Part one) * (PDF)

Iceland, the country which hosts the world's oldest democracy - since 930, and whose citizens have managed to effect change by going on demonstrations and banging pots and pans, has seen a revolution without weapons. Why have the rest of the Western countries not even heard about it?


Pentagon Allows Near "Slavery" Conditions
 Among Foreign Workers
 By Sherwood Ross

http://www.countercurrents.org/ross010911.htm

Many of the 70,000 "third country national"(TCN) service workers employed in Afghanistan and Iraq "recount having been robbed of wages, injured without compensation, subjected to sexual assault, and held in conditions resembling indentured servitude by their subcontractor bosses," reports Sarah Stillman in a June 6th article in The New Yorker magazine titled "The Invisible Army." In fact, the system resembles nothing so much as a twisted form of modern slavery


Hitting Corruption At The Source
 By Prem P. Verma

http://www.countercurrents.org/verma010911.htm

It is this desire to build empires and collect more profits with false notion of spreading wealth to all that is depriving today's farmers from their fertile land, tribals from their homes in rich mineral deposit areas, the rural poor from their meager sustaining income and creating a super-divide between two Indias. This is the real corruption which we are reluctant to face and call a spade a spade


Anna Hazare And Hero Worship In India
 By Prof. Surendra Rote

http://www.countercurrents.org/rote010911.htm

The concentration of power in single hand could be disastrous. India has history of idolatry, idolatry in religion (Baba, Fakirs) and idolatry in politics (politicians) which goes unchallenged


Harud Gov Sarudd
 By Fahad Shah

http://www.countercurrents.org/shah010911.htm

The title above, "Harud gov saridd" means Harud fell cold. The on-going extensive debate on the postponement of the proposed literary festival, Harud (Autumn) Litfest in Kashmir from 24-26 September has many colours. Some say it was the vested interest of the people who opposed the festival. Some even say that it was "Islamic fundamentalism". How can a person with intellect raise such queries? I doubt the intellect now
