Conservation: There Is No Alternative
 By Richard Heinberg

If Bush or Giuliani Had Been Stoltenberg
 By David Swanson

http://www.countercurrents.org/swanson250711.htm

The murder spree in Norway was apparently the work of a Norwegian, not a group of foreigners, and for various other reasons the comparison is not exact. Nonetheless, it's tempting to wonder how many people would still be alive today if George W. Bush or Rudy Giuliani had spoken after the 9-11 attacks as Norwegian Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg just did

How To Heal The Wounds Of
 Mumbai And Oslo Killings
 By Syed Ali Mujtaba

http://www.countercurrents.org/mujtaba250711.htm

This brings to the fundamental point, why the media is in a hurry to do the postmortem of such events. They seem to blame on what ever comes handy and are easy targets. It's a dangerous trend and not good for the consumption of civilized societies. In all humbleness there should be a protest to stop the muck that's thrown around in the name responsible journalism


The Israeli 'Democracy' – An Oxymoron Concept
 By Dr. Habib Siddiqui

http://www.countercurrents.org/siddiqui250711.htm

A J Street poll published last Thursday shows that 57% of U.S. Jews back a Middle East peace plan based on 1967 borders with mutually agreed-upon land swaps, while 43% oppose such a move. According to the poll, 83% of the American Jews support a U.S.-brokered solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Suffice it to say that the tides are changing, hopefully, for the right reason

Fai And His Guest List: Much Ado About Nothing
 By Anuradha Bhasin Jamwal

http://www.countercurrents.org/bhasin250711.htm

By indulging into an entire debate and hair-splitting about who went to which conference is pointless. The Fai phenomenon reveals only two things that need to be focused on. First, the question of why America has acted now. Second, indeed is the business of conferences and how they are funded but this must involve all high profiled conferences, without a prejudice

As The U.S Empire Spread Abroad
 It Becomes A Police State At Home
 By Sherwood Ross

http://www.countercurrents.org/ross250711.htm

As America's empire spreads abroad, it becomes ever more the police state at home. The methods used for the suppression of foreigners by military force and violence are eventually mirrored in the "homeland."


Nepal And Philippines: Connecting
 The Dots ......With India
 By Trevor Selvam

http://www.countercurrents.org/selvam250711.htm

Nepal and Philippines are thus two completely different examples of successful Maoist movements. The key factor in both Nepal and Philippines has been the intelligent independence of mass organizations, the detailed understanding of when to negotiate, when to withdraw and above all the tremendous ability to undermine the propaganda of the mainstream media and take the debate for revolutionary change into a national platform
