The Forgotten Bird Of Paradise
John Pilger via stan, Tuesday, Nov 17 2009, 11:44am
When General Suharto, the West’s man, seized power in Indonesia in the mid-1960s, he offered “a gleam of light in Asia”, rejoiced Time magazine. That he had killed up to a million [mostly ethnic Chinese] 'communists' was of no account in the acquisition of what Richard Nixon called “the richest hoard of natural resources, the greatest prize in South-east Asia”.

Permanent occupation in Asia! DESPERATE American delusion
finch, Saturday, Nov 14 2009, 2:09pm
Imperial, corporate ruled, ‘shit-on-the-end-of-a-stick,’ America, “vows permanent presence” in Asia! Interesting announcement from puppet-in-chief Obaa’ma today; however, the world’s largest regional group, ASIANS, just may have a ‘minor’ influence in determining THEIR OWN DESTINIES – you mindless, American morons!

It seems the entire world has had enough nation-destroying, civilian killing and overt terrorism from America! People everywhere have CLEARLY moved on, convinced no more by the platitudes and diatribes of hate, violence and NEEDLESS war, war, war!

Racist American colony, Australia, takes another battering from BRIC
dasha, Saturday, Aug 1 2009, 6:17pm
The cowardly, obedient, flea nation of the South Pacific and its shameless, servile ‘leadership’ are currently being taught a lesson not soon to be forgotten. Russia has joined its allies, India and China, in their moral, political and economic attacks on the Rudd ‘custard’ government by banning the importation of all kangaroo meat into Russia. This ban, which severely impacts Australia on a number of fronts, is too well timed to be accidental or coincidental.

Brief History of the Shortest Lived Empire on Record, Pt. 1
Andrew Gavin Marshall via quin, Saturday, Aug 1 2009, 2:53am
Introduction
“And it’s come to this;” are reputed to be the last words uttered by notorious Australian bushranger Ned Kelly before he was hanged. Today those fateful words apply to a bandit nation that chose, like Kelly, to live the hard, fast, short life of a rogue and bandit.

In an Impotent World even Criminal Aggression is Tolerated
Paul Craig Roberts via reed, Tuesday, Jul 21 2009, 5:24pm
"The Russians and Chinese are off balance because of successful American interventions in their spheres of influence, uncertain of the threat and the response. Russia could have prevented the coming attack on Iran, but, pressured by Washington, Russia has not delivered the missile systems that Iran purchased. China suffers from her own hubris as a rising economic power, and is about to lose her energy investments in Iran to US/Israeli aggression. China is funding America’s wars of aggression with loans, and Russia is even helping the US to set up a puppet state in Afghanistan, thus opening up former Soviet central Asia to US hegemony. "

Send puppet Obama -- U.S. Corporatists alarmed over China dominance in Africa
krill, Sunday, Jul 12 2009, 6:24pm
American Corporatists, Bankers and Financiers have sent their, groomed for the task, puppet to Africa to stem Chinese dominance of the oil/resource-rich region. We should mention that commercial trade between the African continent and China has existed for thousands of years, as archaeological evidence in Kenya reveals. However, the modern world has a new brutal, mass murdering, imperial player on the scene, America, which distinguishes itself from civilised nations by unrepentant civilian-killing, huge scale drug manufacturing (by proxy) and political meddling in the affairs of other nations. No other nation comes close to America’s MONSTROUS RECORD in brutality, exploitation and drug proliferation – they are the FACTS, as opposed to FOX ‘news’ spin and propaganda!

Pakistanis Reject U.S. 'Aid' Flights
Jeremy Scahill via quill, Sunday, Jul 5 2009, 3:47am
Damn those ungrateful Pakistanis. After U.S. drone attacks killed more than 600 of their people since 2006—most of them civilians—it seems they think they have some right to say they don’t want the U.S. flying its “aid” planes to Swat and other “tribal areas.” The New York Times reports that “the Pakistani authorities have refused to allow American workers or planes to distribute the aid in the camps for displaced people.” The paper reports:

Everyone is appropriately outraged that the former head of the CIA unit which hunted Bin Laden for almost a decade - Michael Scheur - told Glenn Beck:
The only chance we have as a country right now is for Osama bin Laden to deploy and detonate a major weapon in the United States

Peru: Blood Flows in the Amazon
Prof James Petras via reed, Saturday, Jun 13 2009, 4:00pm
In early June, Peruvian President Alan García, an ally of US President Barack Obama, ordered armored personnel carriers, helicopter gun-ships and hundreds of heavily armed troops to assault and disperse a peaceful, legal protest organized by members of Peru’s Amazonian indigenous communities protesting the entry of foreign multinational mining companies on their traditional homelands. Dozens of Indians were killed or are missing, scores have been injured and arrested and a number of Peruvian police, held hostage by the indigenous protestors were killed in the assault. President García declared martial law in the region in order to enforce his unilateral and unconstitutional fiat granting of mining exploitation rights to foreign companies, which infringed on the integrity of traditional Amazonian indigenous communal lands.

‘Talk is Cheap,’ Obama
peptide, Saturday, Jun 6 2009, 8:57pm
One of the world’s most enduring clichés is applied whenever lack of character/substance is detected. Only the most insular hillbillies are unaware that Obama is the leading exponent in the world today of DE-VALUING words! In the past America produced outstanding black leaders of INTEGRITY; it should now be abundantly clear that Obama is not one of them!
