A DIFFICULT test of one's moral character is to always look beyond difference and prejudice, and recognize the value of another. It is always easier to show kindness to one is who similar and to one who is like you, but the real test is to stand up to the rest of society and stick up for those who relate to you the least--those who you understand minimally.

Upside Down World: Warmonger Wins Peace Prize
Posted October 9th, 2009 by Anonymousby PAUL CRAIG ROBERTS
It took 25 years longer than George Orwell thought for the slogans of 1984 to become reality.
“War is Peace,” “Freedom is Slavery,” “Ignorance is Strength.”
I would add, “Lie is Truth.”
The Nobel Committee has awarded the 2009 Peace Prize to President Obama, the person who started a new war in Pakistan, upped the war in Afghanistan, and continues to threaten Iran with attack unless Iran does what the US government demands and relinquishes its rights as a signatory to the non-proliferation treaty.
Obama’s Test: Democracy or Chaos in Latin America
Posted October 8th, 2009 by AnonymousBy Ramzy Baroud
Latin America stands at the threshold of a new era: one that promises a return to political uncertainty, violence and chaos or one of political stability and economic prosperity. Honduras is a crucial indicator.
The possible outcomes of the Honduran crisis are likely to define the coming era for Latin America and the US future role in that hemisphere, and, in fact, beyond it. Indeed, the story is much more elaborate than a daring president holed up in a foreign embassy in his own country.
A Media Failure Compounds The Financial Failure

The Press Is Still Missing The Story Of Fraud and Economic Decline Ahead
We know that Wall Street has not learned much from the crash it helped instigate. We know that our government, whatever its stated desire to clean up the markets and reform the financial behemoths, lacks the willingness and perhaps the clout to rein in the real power centers. We are not sure if they have been “captured” by them, or just lack the guts to take on institutions and individuals that helped fund their rise to power.

Everyone Seems to Be Agreeing with Bin Laden These Days
Posted September 21st, 2009 by AnonymousOnly Obama, it seems, fails to get the message that we’re losing Afghanistan
By Robert Fisk
September 19, 2009 "The Independent" -- Obama and Osama are at last participating in the same narrative. For the US president's critics - indeed, for many critics of the West's military occupation of Afghanistan - are beginning to speak in the same language as Obama's (and their) greatest enemy.
Rationed Care - An Explanation
Posted August 26th, 2009 by crockfordby Bob Maschi
The right is squawking (same tune, different subject) about 'rationed health care.' The claim goes that the plans currently being discussed include a system of 'rationing' health care. Some people (fans of low-budget science fiction flicks, no doubt) go so far as to claim that 'death panels' will be set up to select those who live and those who die.
