In a world where war criminals like Tony Blair are rewarded and those that oppose war criminals, like the Iraqi shoe thrower Muntadhar al-Zeidi, are imprisoned and tortured, it comes as no surprise that another war criminal – Barack H. Obama – has been rewarded for his stoic service to imperial bloodletting with the Nobel [...]
In his latest column for the New Statesman, John Pilger describes the power of advertising — from the effects of smoking to politics — as he reaches behind the facade of the first 100 days of Barack Obama.
The BBC’s American television soap Mad Men offers a rare glimpse of the power of corporate advertising. The [...]
Americans cannot expect to avoid destruction as long as they continue to embrace Communism in all its myriad disguises.

A previously defeated bill that would reduce emissions of that evil, life-giving gas that humans exhale and plants absorb, carbon dioxide, is set to return in January under an Obama administration hell-bent on passing legislation that would inflict the equivalent of a new great depression on America while creating a new infrastructure of “green brigades” [...]
In all my life I have never seen such intense emotion surrounding a leader as that evoked by Barack Obama. Even Ronald Reagan, the Gipper himself, didn’t enjoy the kind of prostration of the will offered to the president-elect by hordes of followers.
