The Scandal Of Global Hunger
 By War On Want

http://www.countercurrents.org/fsr261111.pdf

The scandal of global hunger stands as a rebuke to humanity. The fact that record numbers of people are classified as hungry, at a time when there is unprecedented wealth in the world, challenges the very concept of human progress. Moreover, there is a growing consensus that the crisis in the global food system results from deliberate political choices that favour corporate interests while they condemn hundreds of millions to despair. That system is bankrupt, and must be changed. Here is War on Want's Food Sovereignty Report (PDF)

The Troubling Case of Saif Gadhafi
 By Franklin Lamb

http://www.countercurrents.org/lamb261111.htm

Despite the claims of the National Transitional Council of Libya (NTC) that Saif al Islam Gadhafi, the apprehended subject of an International Criminal Court arrest warrant that ordered his transport to The Hague, is in a secure hidden location near Zintan, Libya, a town approximately 85 miles southwest of Tripoli, this is not the case


Democratic Struggle And The Struggle For
 The Environment Are Tied Together
 By Fred Magdoff & Farooque Chowdhury

http://www.countercurrents.org/chowdhury261111.htm

Climate changes provide another argument against the capitalist system and provides more urgency to seek systemic changes. If the environmental issues are brought front and center within the people's struggles it might even result in more support for change


Why Is Economic Growth So Popular?
 By Ugo Bardi

http://www.countercurrents.org/bardi261111.htm

When the new Italian Prime Minister, Mr. Mario Monti, gave his acceptance speech to the Senate, a few days ago, he used 28 times the term "growth" and not even once terms such as "natural resources" or "energy". He is not alone in neglecting the physical basis of the world's economy: the chorus of economic pundits everywhere in the world is all revolving around this magic world, "growth". But why? What is that makes this single parameter so special and so beloved?
