The census and the death of civil society

WendyMcElroy.Com
by Wendy McElroy

01/25/10

There are many reasons you should refuse to participate in the upcoming American census; this blog touches upon several. Before doing so, however, I want to address a reason that is usually overlooked. The upcoming census is one aspect of government’s ongoing campaign to disrupt the very basis of civil society in order to benefit its goals of social control, of social engineering...

A manifesto: Ending the war

The Nation
by Robert Dreyfuss

01/25/10

How will the war in Afghanistan end? This isn’t a trick question. The answer is simple: the war will end when President Obama signs an order ending it; that is, when the president tells his commanders: ‘It’s over.’ Opponents of the war — including left-wing antiwar activists, liberal progressives, centrists, ‘realists’ and conservative libertarians — will have to unite to pressure, cajole, persuade, and convince Obama to issue that order. Fortunately, in his December 2009 speech at West Point, President Obama provided the war’s opponents with a tactical wedge to use in driving their point home: the president’s announcement that beginning in July 2011 — just eighteen months from now — US forces in Afghanistan will start to draw down...

Is White House Pressuring DOJ to Delay Torture Report Until Health Care Bill Passes?

Jason Leopold, Truthout: "Did the Obama administration pressure the Department of Justice (DOJ) to suppress a long-awaited report from one of the agency's watchdogs on issues revolving around torture until Congress passes a health care bill?"

When Scholars Join the Slaughter

Dahr Jamail, Truthout: "A core tenant of the Obama administration's plans for 'victory' in Iraq and Afghanistan is an increased reliance on counterinsurgency. As previously reported on this web site, the US military has sent shock troops - anthropologists, sociologists and social psychologists - with their own troops in both Iraq and Afghanistan, who also donned helmets and flak jackets. By the end of 2007, American scholars in these fields were embedding with the military in Afghanistan and Iraq as part of a Pentagon program called Human Terrain System (HTS), which evolved shortly thereafter into a $40 million program that embedded four or five person groups of scholars in the aforementioned fields in all 26 US combat brigades that were busily occupying Iraq and Afghanistan."

The militarization of Christianity and all terrorism committed in the name of God must be challenged in a world desperate for Christians who actually follow what Jesus was all about.

Can the Human Race Outgrow War?

By James Carroll

The fantasy that Pentagon spending might be checked was obliterated by last week's other news - the Supreme Court decision to allow unlimited corporate funding of political campaign ads. Defense contractors will spend billions reinforcing the natural law of war.

Freedom comes by faith

by William Owens

Authentic freedom is a life of liberty from bondage to persons, things, or ideals— whether cultural, religious or political—that subscribe your dependence upon them rather than upon God alone. Freedom is not a tangible state of existence that can be merely acquired at a store counter, nor can it be purchased with silver, gold or by any form of material power. Freedom cannot be regulated by human agencies because it is not possible for men to give or take it away.......

William Fisher, Truthout: "The Obama administration is ramping up its use of drone unmanned aircraft to execute targeted killings in Afghanistan and Pakistan, and perhaps in other locations - and, in the process, killing civilians along with insurgents, and risking the compromise of US moral imperatives and foreign policy goals."

The Drone Surge: Today, Tomorrow and 2047

Nick Turse, TomDispatch.com: "One moment there was the hum of a motor in the sky above. The next, on a recent morning in Afghanistan's Helmand province, a missile blasted a home, killing 13 people. Days later, the same increasingly familiar mechanical whine preceded a two-missile salvo that slammed into a compound in Degan village in the tribal North Waziristan district of Pakistan, killing three."
