Al-Qaeda is dwindling in Afghanistan and Iraq

Do No Evil – The most interesting discovery during a visit to Jalalabad, where Osama bin Laden planted his flag in 1996, is that Al-Qaeda seems to have all but disappeared. The group is on the run, too, in Iraq, and that raises some interesting questions about how to pursue this terrorist enemy in the future. "Al-Qaeda is not a topic of conversation her

How Military Spending Made the U.S Economy Broke

Money – The neoconservatives in the White House and Pentagon failed to address the problem of how to finance their schemes of imperialist wars and global domination. As a result, the United States finds itself in the anomalous position of being unable to pay for its own elevated living standards or its wasteful, overly large military establishment.

America in an Age of Simplification and Deceit

Books – it is truth which is central to Larsen's book, his solitary search for it, and his well-wrought conclusion that the public at large and even our so-called intellectual classes are no longer able to think well due to a preponderance of feeling and zeal which has largely crowded out clear reasoning based on empirical evidence and logic.

An Economy Built On Lies

Money – The tissue of lies that held together the subprime market was believed by the best and the brightest. They were blind to what was coming. It has wiped out over $200 billion in assets. We are assured that the worst is over. But who assures us of this? Salaried reporters in a dying field: newspapers and network TV.

Mining For Black Gold In Canada!

Money – There's a major oil boom going on in Alberta,Canada. At first sight it doesn't resemble a traditional oil field that one sees in the Middle East or even closer home in Texas. The difference is that here you don't have to drill for oil, you have to 'mine' it.

False Premise...False Politicians

Do No Evil – Our 'war' with that nation was over the minute their soldiers laid down their arms and went home. From that moment on it became the Iraq Occupation, which is now in its 6th year. Yet, the Democratic Party, supposedly the 'party of opposition,' is once again compliant and complacent .
