ClimateStoryTellers.org Launched
By Subhankar Banerjee

http://www.countercurrents.org/banerjee290810.htm

ClimateStoryTellers.org, a gathering place for stories on all things global warming has just been launched. We have wonderful activist groups like 350.org and others, we have great sites like Grist, ENN, and others for environmental news and opinions, no one place dedicated to climate stories. The objective is not to present just a story as a short news or opinion, but "in-depth", which means all stories will have a central focus perhaps a local issue, but it'll also explore the issues connection to regional, national and global relevance


238 Reasons To Be Worried
By Fidel Castro

http://www.countercurrents.org/castro290810.htm

I am coming out of the conviction that imperialism will disappear because its existence is incompatible with human life on the planet. Throughout 88 days, the elements of judgement to explain what is happening to the readers have been pulled together


Saved From Pakistan's Endless Sea
By Gethin Chamberlain

http://www.countercurrents.org/chamberlain290810.htm

A month after floods devastated the country, small boats still rescue those strong, and lucky, enough to have survived the waters


Floods For Pakistan; Floods Of Money
For its Leader
By Tariq Ali

http://www.countercurrents.org/ali290810.htm

Nearly two thousand deaths and over 20 million people are homeless. The man-made disasters – war in Afghanistan, its spillage into Pakistan – are bad enough. Now the country faces its worst ever natural disaster. Most governments would find it difficult to cope, but the current regime is virtually paralyzed

Red And Green
By Uri Avnery

http://www.countercurrents.org/avnery290810.htm

If people of goodwill want to speed up the end of the occupation, they must support the peace activists in Israel. They should build a close connection with them, break the conspiracy of silence against them in the world media and publicize their courageous actions, organize more and more international events in which Palestinian and Israeli peace activists will be present side by side


Money vs Fossil Energy: The Battle For
Control Of The World
By David Holmgren

http://www.countercurrents.org/holmgren290810.htm

The unfolding climate/energy/economic crisis is heating up a very old rift in global industrial politics. This rift derives from two core beliefs on what constitutes the source of wealth. Does wealth come from human creativity and innovation or is it found in the natural world? Is human capacity the source or a by-product of real power?


A Pearl River Tale, Power And Pride In China
By Rahul Goswami

http://www.countercurrents.org/goswami290810.htm

For a few days last week, global news agencies pursued the peculiar story of the world's worst traffic jam, which was reported to have lasted for around nine days and stretched across about 100 kilometres of a major highway leading to Beijing. China's latest instance of leading the world, now in the scale and size of traffic jams, is a direct consequence of the modern uses and abuses of energy, as this and many other news reports have indicated


An Optimistic Diary (For Once)
By Jerome à Paris

http://www.countercurrents.org/paris290810.htm

Maybe we'll get a real leader one of these days, able to steer us away from the wall before we actually hit it and get hurt. Now believing in that would be wildly optimistic!


Veils, Boomerangs, And Goldilocks
By Asher Miller

http://www.countercurrents.org/miller290810.htm

History is littered with horrific examples of when widespread fear and uncertainty are channeled into organized rage. I'll confess a deep concern about the near- and long-term results from the collision of four realities here in the US


Yale University's Pro-Israeli,
Anti-Islamic Conference
By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman290810.htm

Endless War, Humanitarian Crisis,
And Perpetual Resistance:
U.S. Foreign Policy In The 21st Century
By Michael Schwartz

http://www.countercurrents.org/schwartz290810.htm

In neglecting to cover the process and impact of the Pakistan war, the U.S. media has ignored or recorded in a perfunctory manner (often as add-ons to Afghanistan coverage) major developments in this war, particularly the humanitarian crisis it has created


'How The Supreme Court Played Havoc
With The Ecologically Sensitive Niyamgiri Hills'
By Devinder Sharma

http://www.countercurrents.org/dsharma290810.htm

Following the widespread criticism of the dilution of charges by the former Chief Justice of India A H Ahmadi against the Union Carbide in the Bhopal gas tragedy case, I feel the nation is now becoming mature enough to evaluate, analyse and scrutinise the meaning and implications of court judgements. This is a welcome sign, and indicates the evolution of a healthy and vibrant democracy


Unbelievably Ridiculous!
By Anuradha Bhasin Jamwal

http://www.countercurrents.org/jamwal290810.htm

Events in the last few days have been particularly shocking, making a mockery of democratic practices, culminating in the resignation of J&K Bank chairman Haseeb Drabu. Drabu was forced to resign by the state government. His fault? He kept the bank open on a day that there was no hartal call by the separatists. Is that supposed to be a crime?


Color Of Terror: Saffron, Green or Black?
By Ram Puniyani

http://www.countercurrents.org/puniyani290810.htm

The present statement by Chidambaram is just a continuation of the popular association of the word saffron with Hindutva-RSS politics in the political arena. In the present era of monopolar World, dictated by the ambitions of US greed for oil and plunder of the global resources, politics has been given the veneer of religion. That's why they use the word 'Clash of Civilizations' for their political goals. That's why so far Islam and Muslims have been demonized. U.S. and large section of globe, India in particular are in the grip of Islamophobia. It is time we see the sanctity of religions and oppose the use of religious symbols, colors and terminologies for political goals


Did Terrorism In India Convert To Hinduism,
Or A Paradigm Shift Towards Truth?
By Ershad Abubacker

http://www.countercurrents.org/abubacker290810.htm

All terrorists, be that of any religion, are all fascists. To fight terror is to fight fascism. You don't fight fascism by becoming a fascist yourself. The monochrome vision of terror needs to be debunked
