Links By George August 30th

To all my readers, the "links by george" will remain on pause until late October.
Maybe a chance to catch up on many of the older articles that I have archived in the blog or even give your eyes a rest as I plan to.
So until we meet again in cyberland
In-Joy the time, place and inter dimensional voyages.
George

PLEASE watch this video carefully, right to it's incredible end.
We think the world should know about this. I am sorry that you
might not be able to understand what people are saying. It's
mostly things like 'Don't hit....'
The background is that in the middle of the night the police
went into a church where some very frightened asylum seekers
had been hoping to be safe, since May. A number of supporters
quickly arrived and tried to hinder the policein taking the
refugees away, by sitting on the road or diving under the

The Silence of the Antiwar Movement is Deafening
Cindy Sheehan's Lonely Vigil in Obamaland
By JOHN V. WALSH
Obama is an enormous gift to the Empire. Just as he has
silenced most of the single-payer movement, an effort
characterized by its superb scholarship exceeded only
by its timidity, Obama has shut down the antiwar movement,

and Identity Politics.

Why These Deaths Hit Home as Hard as the Somme
By Robert Fisk
Not so long ago, I seem to remember, Bush was telling
us that we would be betraying the American dead in Iraq
if we gave up the fight. We owed it to the dead to go on
killing more Iraqis. And now we owe it to the dead to go
on killing more Afghans. Who, of course, will go on killing
us. Is there no end to this madness?

Is The USA A Sick Country Or What?
By Dave Lindorff
We've got a litany of horror and abuse here that sounds
like the worst kind of stories that used to come out of Saddam Hussein's Iraq, or the Argentine Junta or Idi Amin's Uganda.
About the only thing missing is word that the military and
CIA torturers were eating their victims, or feeding them
their own genitals, but who knows? Maybe we'll get there
yet. It's hard at this point to rule anything out.

Americans: Serfs Ruled by Oligarchs
By Paul Craig Roberts
Americans think that they have "freedom and democracy"
and that politicians are held accountable by elections. The

The U.S. Federal Budget Pipeline
Where Do The Dollars Drain?

The USA will never gain back its former glory days that gave
rise to both world dominance and a large middle class. As the
country continues to lose jobs at the rate of approximately one
every thirty seconds to either offshore company sites or
business cutbacks, it has nowhere else to go except to sink
down into increased hardship, as well as some degree of
destitution, for an increasing number of Americans and the
nation as a whole.
