Conspiraloons, Ravers and Peace Activists

Danny | 25-08-2007 13:35 | Analysis | Other Press | Terror War | Sheffield

Nafeez Ahmed: Whose Bombs?

© Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed | 05-07-2007 23:28 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Terror War | Birmingham | London | Sheffield

How to understand the attempted but largely failed terrorist plots uncovered since last Friday? Police officers on June 29 dismantled two car bombs made from gas canisters, gasoline and nails, parked in central London’s major theatre and shopping districts. A day later, two men rammed a Jeep Cherokee, filled with flammable material, into a terminal entrance at Glasgow airport. The series of attempted attacks follows hot on the heels of an attempted al-Qaeda attack in the United States earlier in June.

The chronology requires further probing, and indeed, preliminary analysis raises some unresolved questions.

Air strikes Afghanistan and Iraq

Sherman McCoy | 22-06-2007 12:30 | Terror War | Sheffield

Below are detailed air strikes being called in by forward air controllers (JTACs). Basically reconnaissance guys who identify targets.
Bombs used are mainly bunker busters (between 500-5000lb), so for example if you identify a potential roadside bomb you call in an air strike and leave a gaping crater in the road. Deconstruction and democracy Western style
If you are in Northampton why not pay bombmaker Texas Instruments a visit.

Empire as a Way of Life, Part 9

Chris | 21-06-2007 22:10 | Analysis | History | Terror War | Sheffield | World

Audio

The current imperial slaughter in the Middle East, justified by the "Global War on Terror", that has resulted in at least 600,000 deaths in Iraq, is nothing new — the U.S. Empire has a long and sordid history of genocidal mass murder.

The history of the US imperialism and Empire is the subject of a series of ten monthly seminars from Dr John Marciano, "Empire as a Way of Life". Attached is a recording of the ninth of these seminars and the text upon which it was based. The last seminar has taken place and will be posted to the site when the audio is available.

This seminar, recorded on 15th May 2007 by the L.A. Sound Posse, runs for 44 minutes and includes the discussion following. It has been made available under a Creative Commons license. If this recording is broadcast please let the L.A. Sound Posse know. This recording was originally made available on the A-Infos Radio Project site.

The following text has been reproduced here with the kind permission of Dr John Marciano and he can be contacted at johnmarciano@mac.com. He introduced this series of seminars in the following way:

A fundamental purpose of our meetings is to understand the systemic nature of the U.S. Empire and the economic and military imperialism that is its lifeblood. The historian William Appleman Williams argues that empire became "a way of life" in the U.S., a "combination of patterns of thought and action that, as it becomes habitual and institutionalized, defines the thrust and character of a culture and society." This "way of life" has convinced many U.S. "Americans" they have a right or "manifest destiny" to impose their political and economic policies upon others.

Dr John Marciano is Professor Emeritus, State University of New York at Cortland, where he taught courses on social and historical foundations of education and class, gender and race.
