Coming to Our Senses Regarding Nukes | Common Dreams | Breaking News & Views for the Progressive Community

 

As part of President-Elect Trumps daily tweets this past week he stated:



The United States must greatly
strengthen its nuclear capability until such time as the world comes to
its senses regarding nukes. 



In his 140 character tome he proposes
maintaining a status quo of the mythology of nuclear deterrence and
self-assured destruction (SAD) or a “coming to senses” of the nuclear
states.  As President of the United States, he will have a significant
role to play in determining which path is followed. He can lead us
further down the road toward nuclear annihilation or lead us at long
last to nuclear abolition and a world free of nuclear weapons.  



Nuclear deterrence is indeed a myth
propagated for 71 years since the beginning of the nuclear age. Rather
than deterring a nuclear arms buildup, it is instead the greatest driver
of the arms race as each time one nation has a new weapon, technology
or expenditure then all adversaries must match and exceed that number.
We are on the verge of a new nuclear arms race robbing a proposed
trillion dollar expenditure from our basic human needs to rebuild our
nuclear arsenals over the next 30 years. I am certain this is not the
jobs program that President-Elect Trump has in mind.

Payback Time? The Real Cost America Pays for Saddam's Execution

 

In the past decade the US' Middle East policy has proven completely
ineffective, RIA Novosti political analyst Alexander Khrolenko writes.
Ten years after Saddam Hussein's execution US observers recall his
prophetic words: "You’ll wish you had me back."



Ten years ago, on December 30, 2006, the fifth President of Iraq and
leader of the Baath political party, Saddam Hussein, was executed by
hanging at Camp Justice, an Iraqi-American military base.

"Hussein's death was supposed to give birth to a new era in Iraq and the
region. But the new era didn't last five minutes," Will Bardenwerper, a
former infantry officer in the United States Army, remarked Friday in
his op-ed for the Washington Post.

circumstantial and far short of conclusive, courtesy of private research
firms with a financial stake in such claims. Multiple federal agencies
now claim certainty about the Kremlin connection, but they have yet to
make public the basis for their beliefs.

Gardasil or Cervarix. By bundling the HPV vaccine into a single jab with
other childhood vaccines, the opt out rate declines to only 10% for
both boys and girls for the first dose. This compares to a national

CATALONIA -- Catalonia will make unilateral declaration of independence from Spain in the event of “50 per cent plus one more vote” referendum result (From The National)

Catalonia will make unilateral declaration of independence from Spain in the event of “50 per cent plus one more vote” referendum result (From The National)

 

CATALONIA’S president is preparing for the next round in its battle
for secession from Spain with a warning that he will make a unilateral
declaration of independence if “50 per cent plus one more” of the
electorate votes yes in the referendum planned for next year.



He also warned that “Europe has no future” if it does not recognise “a reality like Catalonia”.



Speaking during an interview with a Spanish radio station, Carles
Puigdemont said independence would be declared before new elections were
held in Catalonia, which is responsible for around a fifth of Spain’s
economic output. And he said Europe had a role to play in the process.

British Gov't Spying On You - Dog Fouling, Sun-Bed Use, Toy Sales, Theatre Tickets, Feeding Pigeons - TruePublica

 

The Guardian published a piece entitled “Revealed: British councils used RIPA to secretly spy on public“, on Christmas Day at 7pm, a time that almost no-one reads news, you may have missed it.


For those unaware of the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000
or RIPA as mentioned in this article, the laws were passed in July 2000
and updated in 2003, 2010 and 2015. (Read the legislation.gov.uk page HERE)


Its primary purpose is: “In the interests of national security,
for the purpose of preventing or detecting serious crime and for the
purpose of safeguarding the economic well-being of the United Kingdom
.” The Act specifically covers activities as follows:


  1. Interception of communication

  2. Use of communications data

  3. Directed surveillance (covert surveillance conducted for the purposes of a specific investigation or operation)

  4. Covert human intelligence sources (establishes or maintains a covert personal or other relationship)

  5. Intrusive surveillance (covert surveillance taking place on residential premises or in any private vehicle)


Most people are aware that the first two reasons of the Act allows
surveillance of literally everyone. The British people seem to have
fully accepted this without contest. The last three of these primary
reasons for the Act are for surveillance operations required for
“preventing or detecting serious crime” – right? Wrong!

SPAIN AGAINST THE CATALONIA NATION -- The Big lie about the Joan Coma case – Catalan Assembly

The Big lie about the Joan Coma case – Catalan Assembly

 

The Big lie about the Joan Coma case

  
Judicial proceedings would not have been undertaken against the
Catalan City Councilor if he had not defended the independence project


It is so shocking that a European democratic state detain an elected
official for having expressed his ideas in a plenary session of his
municipal government that those who still believe in the democratic
spirit of a constitutional Spain have rushed to find an explanation so
as to not have to recognize this flagrant attack on the freedom of
expression.


The argument that is serving to calm democratic consciences is that
Joan Coma was not detained for his ideas but rather for refusing to go
to Madrid to testify. But that is not true. It is not true, and it
hurts: it blames the victim and distracts attention from the true
fundamental problem.


A quick review: the man who instigated the investigation against Joan
Coma is the extreme right winger Josep Anglada, former leader of the
xenophobic “Plataforma x Catalunya” who denounced Coma to the Guardia
Civil and added himself personally to the accusations. The Prosecutor
“adjusted” the charges, and is investigating Coma for “alleged
incitement of sedition” a crime which, according to the proseutor, the
Vic city councilor would have committed in a city hall meeting in 2015
by uttering the phrase, “to make an omelette, you must first break the
eggs”.


Judicial Crusade


Anglada starts the ball rolling and the bowels of the State do the
rest, like in a second rate cops and robbers movie: Judge Ismael Moreno,
a former policeman from the Franco era who gained fame by detaining
puppeteers, comes on the scene, picks up the gauntlet and wins points by
joining a judicial crusade of Spanish institutions against
sovereigntist elected officials.


But let’s be clear: no judicial proceeding would have been opened
against Coma nor would he have even been called to testify had he not
defended the independence of Catalonia.


And that is the root of the whole issue: whether Coma goes to testify
or not is a minor procedural matter, what is really serious is that he
be persecuted for expressing his ideas, whatever they may be. When they
say that Coma is guilty of his very own detention, we are not only
sidestepping the real cause of the accusations but we are playing into
the hands of the extreme right, while we also paper over the ill health
of the democracy of a State that long ago lost its way between
judgements and tribunals.


Victims and Executioners


Let us not forget that the justice system that will judge Coma
absolved his accuser, Josep Anglada, of a hate crime of incitement of
racial hate for having distributed 3000 xenophobic pamphlets during the
municipal elections of May, 2007. Victims are turned into executioners,
and executioners into victims.


Yes, this Wednesday Vic City Councilor Joan Coma is [was] taken to
the National Court in Madrid, and it’s no joke: a city councilor
democratically elected at the polls has been detained solely for
expressing his ideas as an elected representative in a municipal plenary
session. That is why all democrats, and particularly those who believe
in “Operation Dialogue”, must join together to keep the foundations of
Spanish democracy from being weakened even further.

The Year it All Changed | New Eastern Outlook

The Year it All Changed | New Eastern Outlook

 It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that in 2016 the balance of power
in the world has changed radically. Just take a look at the so-called
Brexit, Donald Trump’s presidential
victory, the fact that François Fillon and Marine Le Pen are the main
contenders in the French presidential election, as well as the
presidential elections in Bulgaria and Moldova, and the latest failure
of a major Italian politician in elections in southern Europe. These
factors indicate that much will change drastically among international
politics in the next year, as these trends are gaining momentum rapidly.

In Aleppo at a historic moment

I visited Aleppo, East and West, December 10-14, 2016. I was there when
Eastern Aleppo was liberated or fell, depending on your perspective and
the media coverage; I was among the first handful of foreigners to get
into the East after that event.

One can only wonder: There were
no Nordic media and no Western media (with the exception of a
photographer from Croatia) present on the 11th when this historic event
took place. Why?
