Dear All, From Bush to Obama, the trend has been to justify wars due to the 9/11 attack, "a war that we did not want . . ."
Now even Howard Zinn - who is the venerable & universally loved Peoples' Historian of America, has stated that 9/11 was an inside job.
General James Jones has stated that there are barely 100 Al Qaeda remnants in Afghanistan.
So Obama would have us believe that he is protecting the American People from the poorest & utterly wretchedly suffering of the earth, a nation that he is destroying.
Any more liberals who still believe that Obama has come to bring "Peace on Earth & Goodwill to Men" should . . . .
The articles below are a collection of some of the finest writings that have appeared over the last few weeks.
God save us from the Obamas', Netanyahu's & Mubarak's & all those pusillanimous corporate writers & commentators who justify the wars of mass murder & genocide.
Read On.
In Solidarity with the struggling Peoples' & Nations of the World.

The World's Least Powerful ManThe Obama PuppetBy Paul Craig RobertsIt didn't take the Israel Lobby very long to bring President Obama to heel regarding his prohibition against further illegal Israeli settlements on occupied Palestinian land. Obama discovered that a mere American president is powerless when confronted by the Israel Lobby and that the United States simply is not allowed a Middle East policy separate from Israel's.====================================================

Is This a Joke?By Mehdi HasanThe cult of Obama has elevated him to a godlike, saint-like, superhuman position in the global political landscape.

============="More occupation means less occupation."Obama's Af-Pak is as Whack as Bush's IraqBy Glen FordBarack Obama's oratorical skills have turned on him, revealing, as George Bush's low-grade delivery never could, the perfect incoherence of the current American imperial project in South Asia.

The Speech Barack Obama Won't deliverAs Dictated to Daniel SimpsonPutting America first should not require us to put the lives of other peoples second. When our nation became mired in Vietnam, sacrificing millions to its quest to contain Communism, Dr King called us "the greatest purveyor of violence in the world". A year to the day after speaking those words, he was murdered.================================================================

http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article24144.htmWar, More War Or Morer WarBy Ted RallWhat a joke! When you ask a bunch of generals and the secretary of defense for advice about a war, the results are pre-determined: more bang bang, more soldiers, more planes, more bombs, more coffins. The amazing part is how far we've traveled down the path towards all war, all the time.
http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article24152.htm======================================================================Iran's Fuel for ConflictBy Gareth PorterThe Obama administration seems to have adopted a position that makes it impossible to achieve an agreement acceptable to Tehran and move towards a global settlement with the US. If this is the case, the US may have started down the long, dark corridor to confrontation.

But it's an even more dangerous precedent for the world, because it shows how easily he caves in to right-wing extremists in Washington.

http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article24128.htm==A War PresidentBy William KristolPresident Obama went to West Point, said it was an honor to be with young soldiers who embody what's finest about our country, described approvingly and patriotically America's historic achievements in the "noble struggle for freedom," and spoke as a war president. A good thing, too. Because when you're at war, you need a war president.

The real aim was to remove the politically-intractable Taliban and replace them with a puppet regime run by a former-CIA asset. The rest of Afghanistan would be parceled-off to the warlords who assisted in the invasion and who had agreed to do much of the United States dirty-work on the ground.
