Muslamic Ray Guns - Weapons Of Mass Distraction!!!

Flash Gordon, Buck Rogers & Buzz Lightyear! | 23-03-2011 00:44 | Anti-racism | Globalisation | Liverpool | Sheffield

On the 2nd of April, the drunken nobodies of the EDL will be marching up and down the streets of Blackburn chanting racist abuse willy-nilly at any passing Asian man, woman and child. The best way to beat these pissed-up fascist losers is to take the bloody piss.

Point of no return: U.S. and NATO prepare for war with Libya

Rick Rozoff | 08-03-2011 23:10 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Globalisation | Sheffield | World

March 7 was a pivotal moment in plans by Western powers to launch military operations against Libya. After meeting with Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard in Washington, President Barack Obama stated "we've got NATO, as we speak, consulting in Brussels around a wide range of potential options, including potential military options, in response to the violence that continues to take place inside of Libya."

Britain and France, in close consultation with the U.S. and Germany (collectively the NATO Quad), are jointly writing a draft resolution for a no-fly zone over Libya to be presented to the Security Council. If the resolution is supported by nine or more of the fifteen nations on the Security Council and if permanent members China and Russia don't veto it, the stage will be set for a series of further military actions by the U.S. and NATO against Libya, which will be presented by the West as UN-sanctioned, in a manner alarmingly evocative of the process used to prepare the attack on Iraq in 2003.

Libya: Is US pushing for civil war to justify a US-NATO military intervention?

Darius Mahdi Nazemroaya | 25-02-2011 19:58 | Anti-militarism | Globalisation | Repression | Sheffield | World

Tony Blair met Muammar Gaddafi at his desert base outside Sirte, 29 May 2007
One should be opposed to dictatorship, but one should not forget the issue of foreign domination.

Is “manufactured destruction” or “creative destruction” at work?

Is Tripoli being set up for a civil war to justify U.S. and NATO military intervention in oil-rich Libya?

If Qaddafi is not ousted, are the talks about sanctions a prelude to an Iraq-like intervention?

2 Fr.Bks:Indignez-vous(Time for OUTRAGE)&”Coming Insurrection” spur revolts

Donald Grantham | 10-02-2011 19:04 | Globalisation | Social Struggles | Workers' Movements | Sheffield | World

Two recent books from France and England are stirring up revolutions, and it's about time.

I'll quote from them a little, because you need to know. But I am not trying to steal their sales. If you get a copy, that's a revolutionary act in itself.

Roma and Arabs in Europe and Latinos in America, take note. This about protecting your rights.

Chinese Go Shopping!

Alex Smith | 17-01-2011 20:26 | Ecology | Energy Crisis | Globalisation | Sheffield

Audio
"As China Goes, So Goes the World. How Chinese Consumers Are Transforming Everything." That's the title from a new book by Karl Gerth. He's a fellow at Merton College, teaching modern Chinese history at Oxford University, in Britain. We talk how big name brands and their knock-offs, plus cars as status symbols, invaded China. Why didn't they take the green energy route? Did the Chinese government know Western consumer culture was failing, unsustainable, and damaging the world?

UG#531 - Unite and Conquer 2 (One Global Family)

Robin Upton | 29-12-2010 16:51 | Analysis | Globalisation | Social Struggles | Sheffield | World

Audio
This week we continue our series on the age of reunion. We start with Elisabet Sahtouris speaking on evolutionary leaps which spring from cooperation, the unification of formerly disparate organisms to create new life forms of massively greater complexity. Next Brian Willson recalls his unexpected empathic connection with a faceless victim of US napalm in Vietnam. In our second hour, we hear Jonathan Balcombe, author of Second Nature : The Inner Lives of Animals on the rich inner lives of animals, and why scientists are showing interest in them after ignoring them for so long. We conclude with a moving speech by Anita Burke on the role of forgiveness and love in changing corporate culture.

UG#529 - Unite and Conquer 1 (The Realisation of Unity)

Robin Upton | 11-12-2010 23:27 | Anti-militarism | Culture | Globalisation | Sheffield

Audio
This week we question the reductionist science of the discrete and separate self. Our opening talk, by Paul Bloom, looks at research into the human moral sense, and presents findings which suggests that children even only a few months old are possessed of some kind of moral sense. We follow this up with a heartfelt talk from peace activist Brian Willson, on the need for US culture to break out of its self-imposed box and relate healthily with the world at large. Our major talk, by evolutionary biologist and gift economy activist, Elisabet Sahtouris, is a wide ranging one. She directly challenges reductionist models of evolution, preferring a holistic view, concluding that humanity is undergoing a change akin to the metamorphosis of a caterpillar into a butterfly.

Prince Andrew: UK "In the thick of playing the Great Game"

Wikileaks | 30-11-2010 15:18 | Globalisation | Terror War | Sheffield | World

¶9. (C) Addressing the Ambassador directly, Prince Andrew then turned to regional politics. He stated baldly that “the United Kingdom, Western Europe (and by extension you Americans too”) were now back in the thick of playing the Great Game. More animated than ever, he stated cockily: “And this time we aim to win!” Without contradicting him, the Ambassador gently reminded him that the United States does not see its presence in the region as a continuation of the Great Game. We support Kyrgyzstan’s independence and sovereignty but also welcome good relations between it and all of its neighbors, including Russia.
