'Peak Oil' : Jimmy Carter's Secretary Of Energy
Sounds The Alarm
By Matthieu Auzanneau

http://www.countercurrents.org/auzanneau180910.htm

James Schlesinger, President Carter's Energy Secretary, wrote the foreword to a book written by Dr Robert Hirsch, a former US official who predicts a fall of the oil production within 5 years. Never before has a high-ranking political figure like Schlesinger gave his support to such a prognosis


The Peak Oil Crisis: Is $50 Oil In The Offing?
By Tom Whipple

http://www.countercurrents.org/whipple180910.htm

It is to delay the realization of what is about to happen on the part of the general public for as long as possible, is what motivates the debunkers. Until the day when declines in global oil production become too obvious to deny we will continue to read stories about $50 oil


The 4 Major Threats To industrialized Agriculture:
Fred Kirschenmann Speaks
By Kalpa

http://www.countercurrents.org/kalpa180910.htm

The next generation sees the world differently. The older people alive today wanted to control the world. The new generation wants to work with it. Through his work at the Stone Barns Center for Food and Agriculture in New York, he sees the many great young people working there who want to grow real food (not corn and soy). Seventy percent of them are now engaged in full time agriculture


Shell's "Let's Go" Ad In HuffPo
By Subhankar Banerjee

http://www.countercurrents.org/banerjee180910.htm

Why we mustn't allow Shell to go ... to America's Arctic seas


Who Will Feed India In The Days To Come?
By Devinder Sharma

http://www.countercurrents.org/dsharma180910.htm

India is witnessing a thousand mutinies. Pitched battles are being fought across the country by poor farmers, who fear further marginalisation when their land is literally grabbed by the government and the industry. From Mangalore in Karnataka to Aligarh in Uttar Pradesh, from Singur in West Bengal to Mansa in Punjab, the rural countryside is literally on a boil. Large chunks of prime agricultural land are being diverted for non-agricultural purposes. Such huge diversion of farm lands will result in drastic cut in food production, and has threatening socio-political implications


From Ecocide To Ecocentrism: A Response
By Paul Kingsnorth

http://www.countercurrents.org/kingsnorth180910.htm

Paul Kingsnorth's personal-radical farewell to green-movementism - the essay "Confessions of a recovering environmentalist" - generated a rich and earthy response. Andrew Dobson, the pioneer of "ecologism" and of green political thought, questioned the key choice the essay offered. Now, Paul Kingsnorth develops his case that "ecocentrism" is the practical heart of good human society


Inventing A Child's Ecological Education
By Sharon Astyk

http://www.countercurrents.org/astyk180910.htm

I'm a homeschooler, but it isn't only homeschoolers that struggle with the question of how you frame our ecological situation for children in ways that are honest, not too frightening, engaging, and age-appropriate


Economic Crisis Threatens To Unleash
Global Currency Wars
By Barry Grey

http://www.countercurrents.org/grey180910.htm

Two events this week have highlighted the growth of global economic tensions and the slide toward international trade and currency wars


Nature Cannot Be Fooled
By Rand Clifford

http://www.countercurrents.org/clifford180910.htm

The direction that power is taking us suggests that Feynman's "...reality must take precedent over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled" will become the most important idea of our time. Perhaps, if power could suddenly be properly diluted, and Nature properly respected, it already is the most important idea we have


Regarding US Muslims: A Misguided Debate
By Ramzy Baroud

http://www.countercurrents.org/baroud180910.htm

Laurie Goodstein's article, 'American Muslims Ask, Will We Ever Belong?' was intended as a sympathetic reading of the concerns of US Muslim communities facing increasing levels of hostility and fear. While generally insightful and sensibly written, the article also highlights the very misconceptions that riddle the bizarre debate pitting American Muslims against much of the government, the mainstream media and most of the general public


Remembering The Sabra And Shatila Massacre
By Abdus Sattar Ghazali

http://www.countercurrents.org/ghazali180910.htm

To borrow Richard Seymour, remembering Sabra and Shatila is not just about paying ritual tribute to the dead, for whom tributes are worthless. It is about knowing what it is that the Palestinians are up against, and understanding the urgent need for solidarity today. It will not be too much to say that in the spirit of the 9/11 terrorist attack memorial held last week, the Sabra and Shatila victims deserve an equal tribute


Life In Devastated Haiti
By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman180910.htm

Nine months after the January 12 earthquake, Haitians still have little relief. Over one and a half million left homeless continue struggling to survive, despite billions in aid raised or pledged. It's for development, predatory NGOs, not them. That's the problem, and they suffer as a result, little media attention paid to their plight


State Response to Maoist Violence in India:
A Critical Assessment
By K S Subramanian

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

Maoist violence is the consequence of increased atrocities against scheduled castes and scheduled tribes (especially in the central tribal belt) and widespread tribal unrest due to commercialisation of forest resources. Ignoring such analysis and acting primarily on reports by the Intelligence Bureau, which is not equipped to study the multiple complexities of developmental conflicts, the Ministry of Home Affairs has resorted to brute police force to deal with the violence. But, as suggested by several reports, the problem should be handled politically and administratively, implementing the constitutional provisions for dalits and adivasis that have so far been ignored


Enlightenment That Took Thousands Of
Kashmiri Lives To Dawn Upon
The Indian Government!
By Avinash Pandey Samar

http://www.countercurrents.org/samar180910.htm

Enlightenment, it seems, has finally dawned upon the Indian government. The words of wisdom that came out of yesterday's all-party meeting on Kashmir convened by the Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh, point to that. The wisdom was best summarised in the consensus the meeting arrived at that the "Constitution of India provides ample scope to accommodate any legitimate political demand through dialogue, civil discourse and peaceful negotiations"


Another Slap On The Shopian Victims
By Independent Women's Initiative for Justice

http://www.countercurrents.org/ij180910.htm

Women's groups condemn the reported reinstatement of four police officers accused of tampering evidence in the Shopian rapes and murders case


Ayodhya: Waiting For The Verdict
By Ram Puniyani

http://www.countercurrents.org/puniyani180910.htm

Today we are at a crucial juncture. The core issues of society, bread, shelter, employment and Human Rights need to be brought to the front stage and the Temple-Masque disputes can be left to the rational historians and the law of the land. All of us need to adopt this attitude and accept the process of law and the values of Indian Constitution


Capital Controls Gain Credence
By Kavaljit Singh

http://www.countercurrents.org/ksingh180910.htm

Capital controls are back in fashion. In June 2010, South Korea and Indonesia announced several policy measures to regulate potentially destabilising capital flows, which could pose a threat to their economies and financial systems


If I Were The President!
By Tim Gatto

http://www.countercurrents.org/gatto180910.htm

If I woke up one morning and found that I was the President, after I accepted that fact, maybe if I believed I was dreaming and just decided to go along with this particular dream, these are some of the things I would do


The River Of Afghan Corruption,
And Its American Source
By Peter Chamberlin

http://www.countercurrents.org/chamberlin180910.htm

The distinguished American ambassador glibly explains the unprecedented security situation in Afghanistan, blaming the entire mess upon the last thirty years without accepting US responsibility for causing it all


Of Resistance And Fighting For
The First Amendment
By Jason Miller

http://www.countercurrents.org/miller180910.htm

No group has seen its First Amendment rights erode more quickly and dramatically than those of us who are vegan and agitate for Animal Rights and the Earth. It has been a down-hill slide for us ever since, with ever-increasing degrees of harassment, surveillance, persecution, arrest, and imprisonment for the "crime" of defending the Earth and other sentient beings and attempting to stop a holocaust that kills billions upon billions of nonhuman animals annually

UANI: United Against The Nation Of Iran
By Kourosh Ziabari

http://www.countercurrents.org/ziabari180910.htm

By publishing propagandistic reports and articles on the purported hazard of Iran's nuclear activities, UANI also functions as a mouthpiece which is exclusively dedicated to fear-mongering and spreading falsehood about Iran
