Don’t Believe Your TV

The American media has been reporting with vigor that the Iraqi “government” is taking form. Don’t believe the hype. Not that a new regime isn’t taking over, it is. It’s just that these people are American puppets. Ahmad Chalabi, the man who admitted helping concoct the lies about WMD, is now [...]

Dr. King’s Words

“It seems that I can hear the God of history saying, “That was not enough! But I was hungry, and ye fed me not. I was naked, and ye clothed me not. I was devoid of a decent sanitary house to live in, and ye provided no shelter for me. And consequently, [...]
