Contributors included Andy Worthington who spoke about how courts in DC have watered down the Habeus Corpus rights which the Supreme Court said detainees were entitled to.

UN 'Travesty': Resolutions Of Mass Destruction

@medialens | 14-02-2012 15:54 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Terror War | Sheffield | World

It has been said that compassion is 'the only beauty that truly pleases' (Aryasura, The Marvelous Companion, Dharma Publishing, 1983, p.305). While beauty ordinarily provokes the fiery itch of desire or the sullen shadow of envy, compassion is cooling, blissful, inspiring awe and wonder. It implies an ability to stand outside our own needs as observers, to perceive the suffering of others as of equal or greater importance. But like all forms of beauty, compassion can be faked, exploited.

The World War on Democracy

John Pilger | 19-01-2012 21:11 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Terror War | Sheffield | World

B-1B Lancer Bombers on a runway at Diego Garcia, November, 2001, bombing Iraq
Lisette Talate died the other day. I remember a wiry, fiercely intelligent woman who masked her grief with a determination that was a presence. She was the embodiment of people's resistance to the war on democracy. I first glimpsed her in a 1950s Colonial Office film about the Chagos islanders, a tiny creole nation located midway between Africa and Asia in the Indian Ocean.

The 1%'s New Battle: Selling War on Iran

Word.'s blog @OWSLosAngeles | 22-11-2011 19:38 | Occupy Everywhere | Analysis | Anti-Nuclear | Terror War | Sheffield | World

In the face of all that presently ails America--stagnant economy, staggering income disparity, high chronic unemployment, mass demonstrations coast to coast--a remedy is desperately needed. For a ruling elite concerned only with maintaining power, only one solution can address these concerns and those that are forthcoming. Yep. It’s time for another war.

Britain’s Own Pravda-Style Propaganda: Ten Years Of ‘Involvement’ In Afghanistan

Media Lens | 18-10-2011 14:16 | Afghanistan | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Terror War | Sheffield | World

Imagine Britain had been invaded and occupied by armed forces from another region of the world with China, for example, as a significant 'partner' in the 'coalition'. Imagine tens of thousands of Britons had been killed, and millions had fled as refugees. This is how the Chinese state broadcaster might report the invasion ten years hence:

'It's ten years this week since Chinese forces first became involved in Britain, and more than five years since they assumed responsibility for south-east England. So what's been achieved in that time?'

UG#568 - 9/10 Anniversary (Unaccountable Accounts from Powerdown to Stand Down)

Robin Upton | 10-09-2011 11:54 | Analysis | Social Struggles | Terror War | Sheffield | World

Audio
This week's show is released 10 years to the day since Rumsfeld announced that the Pentagon could not account for 1/4 of all its spending. Like the $2,300,000,000,000 he spoke about, many details from the next day are still unaccounted for, a decade later - including most notably the sudden (though not unexpected) implosion of WTC7. We hear the soundtrack of a new video by  http://ae911truth.org.

To Avert A Bloodbath - Libya And The Press - Part 1

Media Lens | 01-09-2011 19:02 | Analysis | Globalisation | Terror War | Sheffield | World

From the allegedly liberal left to Murdoch’s hard right, the media spectrum continues to shine green for 'go' on the Libyan war. An Independent on Sunday (IoS) editorial on August 28 observes:

‘This newspaper supported Nato's military intervention, and Britain's part in it, when it began in March, but it was a choice between hard and complex options – and so it remains.’
