Climate Talks Promise Little, Deliver Less
By Dan Brennan

http://www.countercurrents.org/brennan031210.htm

Delegates from over 180 nations converged Monday on Cancun, Mexico, as a two-week-long United Nations climate change conference commenced. They were joined by a swarm of industry representatives, environmental activists and media, all together numbering near 15,000. But what the conference boasted in terms of attendance was hardly matched by any hope for a comprehensive strategy to address climate change

After The Ruin Of The Mid–Terms,
Is There Hope From Down Under?
By Peter Boyer

http://www.countercurrents.org/boyer031210.htm

The US mid–term elections brought the global climate campaign to its knees, but as November drew to a close we in Australia got the most promising signal for a long time that our own national leadership is beginning to take climate policy seriously. Is this real hope, or just clutching at straws as we sink into a bottomless quagmire?


We're Toast
By Guy R. McPherson

http://www.countercurrents.org/mcpherson031210.htm

It's too late to avoid terrifyingly bad climate change, and avoiding catastrophe seems increasingly unlikely, even to the mainstream media. The numbers keep coming at us, too: greenhouse gases are near the all-time peak, at least since the industrial era began. The United Nations concurs: We're unlikely to avoid runaway greenhouse. In short, we're toast


Oil And The Economy: Three Possible Scenarios
By Gail Tverberg

http://www.countercurrents.org/tverberg031210.htm

The major problems foreseen are different in each these three scenarios, as are the likely solutions. This post gives a brief overview of how these differ

On 22 November a jury of international experts announced their verdict that compelling evidence shows corporate complicity in Israeli violations of international law. The verdict followed two full days of presentations in London at the second international session of the Russell Tribunal on Palestine from 20 to 21 November


Uprooting The Bedouins Of Israel
By Neve Gordon

http://www.countercurrents.org/gordon031210.htm

Despite the fact that it was the seventh demolition since last July, this time the destruction of the Bedouin village Al-Arakib in the Israeli Negev was different. This time Christian evangelists from the United States and England were involved

Targeting Silwan's Children
By Jillian Kestler-D'Amours

http://www.countercurrents.org/damours031210.htm

According to the Wadi Hilweh Information Center, approximately 51 Palestinian children have been arrested in Silwan since mid-September, when clashes erupted after an Israeli settler security guard shot and killed neighborhood resident Samer Sarhan


Lebanon At Stake: Turkey Must Reveal Its Cards
By Ramzy Baroud

http://www.countercurrents.org/baroud031210.htm

The timing of the Turkish Prime Minister's two-day visit to Lebanon could not be more judicious. Lebanon's enemies have been banging the drums of war louder than ever before


NGO Monitor Targets Truth For Israel
By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman031210A.htm

NGO Monito is a Jerusalem-based pro-Israeli front group, disseminating propaganda and hate, debasing legitimate human rights organizations, independent journalism, and other advocates for truth, equity and justice. Recently it has turned against Electronic Intifada


International Day of Solidarity
With The Palestinian People
By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman031210.htm

On November 29 and every day, solidarity with them should be affirmed until they're free and independent on their own land in peace


The Roof Is Now the Field

"We grow on our roof because we are farmers but have no land now," says Moatassan Hamad, 21, from Beit Hanoun in northern Gaza Strip


The Folly Of The Israeli And Arab
Approach To Iran
By Alan Hart

http://www.countercurrents.org/hart031210.htm

The Wikileaks revelation that some Persian Gulf Arab leaders wanted (and still want?) America to attack Iran is confirmation of what some of us thought we knew – that Arab leaders are not merely impotent but as dangerously deluded as their Israeli counterparts


Wikileaks A Call To Struggle Against Empire
By Andrea Pason & Billy Wharton

http://www.countercurrents.org/wharton031210.htm

The more than 250,000 messages map out the complex interconnections of a US empire managed by a murky group of diplomats, secret agents and military personnel. They document scandalous acts such as the horse-trading of human beings for diplomatic access, the plotting of the payoffs necessary after the demise of North Korea and the employing of diplomatic muscle to shield intelligence agents from criminal prosecution. All of these acts are part of the everyday reality created by US imperial dominance


Out Of The Diplomatic Bag
By William Bowles

http://www.countercurrents.org/bowles031210.htm

Wikileaks has committed the unforgivable sin of revealing the inner workings of Empire, what the servants of Empire really think and in so doing it has also revealed the extremely comfortable relationship between the media and the state in making sure that the truth behind the headlines is kept from us


Amnesia As A Way Of Life: WikiLeaks
Amid The "Careless People"
By Phil Rockstroh

http://www.countercurrents.org/rockstroh031210.htm

As many wags have noted, the disclosures of Wikileaks have subjected the US Empire and its operatives to a full-body scan. Turnaround is fair play, because, until now, in the US, the powerless masses are subject to arbitrary pat downs and body scans, while the powerful and connected are massaged by privilege and ensconced in immunity


WikiLeaks Reveals Diplomatic Cables
On Aafia Siddiqui
By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman031210C.htm

In several December 1 reports, the London Guardian discussed them, including its article headlined, "US embassy cables: Bagram officials deny detaining Aafia Siddiqui." US deception and lies about her date from initial accusations, regarding a bogus plot to bomb New York landmarks, charges omitted from her indictment

Impact of Globalization On A
Southern Cosmopolitan City ( Cairo ):
A Human Rights Perspective
By Dr.Samir Naim Ahmed

http://www.countercurrents.org/ahmed031210.htm

All the cities of the world have been affected by globalization. However it affected cities of the south differently than cities of the north due to the mechanisms of globalization of the world market which has led to the widening of the gap between the north and the south and between the rich and the poor. This paper discusses how this has been associated with economic, social and spatial polarization within the cities of the south and assesses the impact of this polarization on the different aspects of human rights of the people in a southern cosmopolitan city


Media: Blurred Lies, Concaved Truths
By Prabhat Sharan

http://www.countercurrents.org/sharan031210.htm

The recent scandal tapes involving conversations between hacks and PR agents, is nothing to be surprised of. Neither it is surprising to hear or see in the media offices the gradation of journalist being rated on the scale of fixing deals he or she manages in political-corporate nexus or how snugly is mollycoddled by a lobbyist or an industrialist. After all the aim of media in these times is not to present the truth but to blur lies


I Am A Nationalist But Not Anti-Pakistan,
Anwaar Ul Haq, Speaker of AJK Assembly
By Dr Shabir Choudhry

http://www.countercurrents.org/choudhry031210.htm

Fact remains that government of Jammu and Kashmir on the other side of LOC is called a 'puppet government', yet leaders of that government spend most of their time inside the State territory and enjoy considerable more powers than the government on the Pakistani side of the LOC. And despite that fact, the government on this side of the LOC is called Azad - independent, even though they have very limited powers and they spend most of their time in a capitol of a country which is perceived as an occupier by genuine sons of soil


Myth of "American Exceptionalism":
The Ultimate, Pernicious Howler
By Robert Becker

http://www.countercurrents.org/becker031210.htm

God's mysterious sense of humor strikes again, afflicting the lunatic fringe with this especially ludicrous zinger: the delusion of infallibility. Beyond the '50's jingoism of "America, right or wrong," the right now stays this course, "America, never wrong." We must be special, the chosen elect, morally superior to every other country. Why else would an omnipotent God put us in charge? End of discussion
