Prepping Minds For War Against China
By Shamus Cooke

http://www.countercurrents.org/cooke170111.htm

You'd think the U.S. was already at war with China, given the immense amount of anti-China rhetoric spouting from the government and media. But selling wars takes time. The average American hasn't bought in to this false advertising yet. So the big lie will be repeated until its roots are deeply sunk into the American psyche


No Peak Oil Yet? The Limits Of The Hubbert Model
By Ugo Bardi

http://www.countercurrents.org/bardi170111.htm

What we are seeing is not what we would expect: we are not seeing a well defined peak, at least for the "all liquids" case. That raises a fundamental question: is the Hubbert model a valid tool for describing the future of oil production worldwide?


Ben Ali: Friendless, Homeless And Humiliated -
Dictators Take Note
By Yvonne Ridley

http://www.countercurrents.org/ridley170111.htm

He might still be living in the lap of luxury, but make no mistake Tunisia's former President Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali and his family are prisoners. Like birds in a guilded cage, they are languishing in a palace in one of the most exclusive districts of Jeddah but the truth is Ben Ali and his equally odious and corrupt family have nowhere else to hide. It should signal a warning to all the other despots and dictators in the region – Egypt in particular

An Open Letter To Sandy Berger
And Stephen Hadley:A Road Map
To Peace Beginning With Justice
By William A. Cook

http://www.countercurrents.org/cook170111.htm

The world communities must face the reality that the US cannot control Israel nor its own policies. Therefore, the UN must assert its responsibility for all its member states and resolve a conflict that has plagued the world for the past 60 years. It's time illusion gives way to reality


Extremist Killing Is As American As Apple Pie
By Stephan Salisbury

Murders grow on the far right rour decades after Martin Luther King


Tribute to Patrice Lumumba On The 50th
Anniversary Of His Assassination
By Carlos Martinez

http://www.countercurrents.org/martinez170111.htm

Why was Lumumba killed? Because he was a relentless, dedicated, intelligent, passionate anti-colonialist, Pan-Africanist and Congolese nationalist; because he had the unstinting support of the Congolese masses; because he stood in the way of Belgium 's plan to transform Congo from a colony into a neo-colony


What MLK Would See Today
By Mary Shaw

http://www.countercurrents.org/shaw170111.htm

Every step forward for racial justice is to be commended, like the election of President Obama. But clearly we still have a lot of work to do before people will truly be judged not by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. And surely Dr. King would want us to keep fighting the good fight


Banking In Venezuela
By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman170111A.htm

Count on opposition lawmakers, hostile US ones, Venezuela's right-wing media, and its US counterparts to use any opportunity to bash Chavez and Bolivarianism. The same decade-long drumbeat echos now about banking and other reforms

The First Persian Gulf War

Swami, Sangh And Terror Links
By Ram Puniyani

http://www.countercurrents.org/puniyani170111.htm

All those who stand for a democratic society with the concept of Human rights need to come together and take multiple programs to combat the religion based nationalism, and politics laced in the language of religion, which is the major cause of the terrorism, as practiced by the likes of Osama bin laden or Swami Aseemanand


Implement PCA To Stop Harassment Of Muslim Youth
By Syed Ali Mujtaba

http://www.countercurrents.org/mujtaba170111.htm

It is high time that Muslim organizations along with friendly NGOs may take up the issue of implementing the Supreme Court directive of constituting the Police Complaints Authority (PAC) in each state of India. This task may have to be taken up with utmost urgency, only then the highhandedness and lethargic attitude of the police forces could be checked


The Great Divide On Terror
By M Shamsur Rabb Khan

http://www.countercurrents.org/rabbkhan170111.htm

A fair BJP or RSS would have asked for a fair trial for all those arrested on terror charges irrespective of their religion. And unless they show equal concern for Muslims falsely arrested on charges of terrorism, their emotional support to Hindutva terror is nothing but partisan politics based on the great divide on terror


Fabricating Evidence : The Case Of Two Diaries
By Sadanand Patwardhan

http://www.countercurrents.org/patwardhan170111.htm

A thrust should be made to have "accused" and his lawyers an unfettered access to case & station house diaries once the investigations are completed. This would certainly minimize the incidences of implicating activists in false cases by making the job of police that much harder. At least it would teach them to desist from shoddy work


Right To Protest And 'Right To Violence'
By Dr Shabir Choudhry

http://www.countercurrents.org/choudhry170111.htm

Be it be the BJP, or any other group, no one should be allowed to promote extremism, communalism and hatred; and destroy peace, harmony and traditional Kashmiri culture of toleration. If designs of these groups are not checked then it is possible that 'bad old days' might return; and groups which espouse violence and hatred, and their mentors from outside will call shots and ruin Kashmiri culture of peace and toleration


If Farmers Can Be Given Loans At
One Percent Interest, Why Not Small Borrowers?
By Devinder Sharma

http://www.countercurrents.org/dsharma170111.htm

The poorest of the poor also need to be provided with cooperative loans, and Kisan Credit Cards like the farmers get. If such schemes can be implemented for farnmers who live in unreachable areas, I am sure the same provisions can be extended to other members of his family. What is needed is a political will to make this happen, and it will happen. Till then , MFIs will continue to loot the poor


Messing Up In Telengana Would Alienate People
From Rest Of The Country
By Vidya Bhushan Rawat

http://www.countercurrents.org/rawat170111.htm

Justice Shri Krishna Committee report on Telengana has strengthened the views of the Telengana people that it was meant to create status quo and buying time to create further confusion and depression among the people of the region. That Shri Krishna Committee could not find logical reasons for carving a separate Telengana state is quite distasteful
