  • British PM Cameron's tiff with Trump over Muslims: The Hypocrisy Factor
    • Klim Maling 05/17/2016 at 8:22 am

      Why stop with the Muslims, Mr. Trump? The Southern Poverty Law Center can provide a list of hate groups whose members could benefit from being excluded from the United States.

  • Facing ISIL Propaganda, Russia Denies its Syria Campaign is a "Holy War"
    • Klim Maling 10/06/2015 at 8:19 am

      On the subject of foreign fighters and their motivation; Let us recall the Abraham Lincoln brigade in the Spanish civil war, 2,800 Americans and the government had no objection. We may find idealism misplaced but it's not necessarily crazy.

  • How the Sept. 11 Attacks Changed American Lives Forever
    • Klim Maling 09/09/2015 at 3:56 am

      That's a powerful summary. You've nailed it, thanks. But there's this other thread, financialization and inequality. Are they linked or independent?

  • How Likely are the GOP Presidential Candidates Top 10 to drag us into War?
    • Klim Maling 08/06/2015 at 7:13 am

      In conclusion, the U.S. should focus on assisting the refugees, offering counsel, med and food supplies. When the dust of battle has settled, they will remember American largesse, no matter who “wins”.
      At last a note of sanity. Well said. We are witnessing about five human catastrophes of war and mass migration. It is urgent!

  • Crimea Vote provokes fear of Domino Effect in Eurasia: Turkish FM
    • Rakhmatov 03/18/2014 at 9:29 am

      And let's not forget the dispute between Japan and Russia over the South Kuril District of the Sakhalin Oblast. Japan wants those islands back.

  • Greenwald to BBC: Journalists must investigate the Powerful in Gov't since they Lie to the People (BBC Surprised)
    • Klim Maling 12/02/2013 at 7:18 am

      Every once in a while a character is strong enough and articulate enough to punch through the fog blown by MSM - Glen Greenwald, Karen Hudes, Tim DeChristopher, Aaron Swarz, Chris Hedges - we need you guys to speak for us.

  • Top Ten American Steps toward a Police State
    • Rakhmetov 06/23/2013 at 2:42 pm

      Top ten steps towards a police state.
      I don't see people making the connection with: Financialization => more Inequality => protecting the Status quo => a Police State.

      Given all the high tech surveillance and security it's hard to see how that can be reversed.

  • Hagel Confirmed, but Bloodied by American Nationalists Seeking Wars & World Dominance
    • Klim Maling 02/28/2013 at 3:37 am

      Yes Juan, but how do you really feel?
