The Bible, the Quran or "Mein Kampf"?

Da Salon:

It's an international bestseller featuring the life and sayings of a charismatic leader and self-styled prophet. It's also a book whose words have been used to justify the march of armies and the slaughter of innocents. But is it the Bible, the Quran or "Mein Kampf"?

Identify which of the three books contains the following passages:

Buy Nothing Day

Shopping is going to save us. Shop for your family. Shop for your country. Shop for your security.

Let's think about that for a second. If each of us must shop at a fevered pitch every day just to keep our economy moving, how secure are we, really?

Consumption is being cast as "fighting the good fight," but for many of us that rings a little hollow. Yes. It's time to grieve, it's time to reflect. But it's certainly *not* time to stifle discussion and reverse progress on what, though it has been bumped from the news agenda, remains the world's biggest long-term problem: the unsustainable consumer binge of Western nations. In fact, now may be the time to take the sustainable consumption debate to a new plane.

Family, friends, freedom: these are things money can't buy. And at heart, that's the point of Buy Nothing Day.

Celebrate with us this November 23rd.

Resistance is futile

Quando você decidir se render, aproxime-se de forças dos EUA com suas mãos para cima. Coloque sua arma nas costas, com o cano voltado para baixo. Remova o pente e jogue fora as balas.

É sua única chance de sobrevivência.

A bold TV station that America wants to censor

Robert Fisk mandando bem:

It is no wonder the US wants to censor Al-Jazeera. It is a phenomenon in the Arab world, a comparatively free, bold initiative in journalism that was supported by the Americans until it became rather too free.

The U.S. Theater of Operations

Deu no Stratfor:

As the U.S. military commences strikes on Afghanistan, warnings are increasing about the threat of further attacks on the United States. Osama bin Laden's al Qaeda network likely has more forces deployed in the United States. The question now isn't if they will strike again, but where and how they will do it.

...

As the United States tries to focus on the Afghan Theater of Operations, the optimal response from the Afghan side will be to focus on the U.S. Theater of Operations. There is a symmetry to asymmetrical warfare, where each side tries to maximize its capabilities to the detriment of the other. It must not be forgotten that al Qaeda's special operations teams remain the Afghan's most potent counter.

television: opiate of the masses

Do Disinformation:

Aright junkies, I know you don't like staring at long strands of motionless text, and I know it's a struggle for you to analyze and comprehend the meaning of complex sequences of words. But if you give me just a few minutes, I will let you in on a little secret that marketers and governments have been relying on for decades. That television you watch every day, your secret best friend, is an addictive opiate, and not only that, it's one of the most potent mind control devices ever produced. And I'm not just basing this on intuition. I have the neurological evidence to prove it.

The time of fun and waste is gone ???

Robert Fisk mandando muito bem:

Fearful, chilling, grot-esque ­ but also very, very odd. If the handwritten, five-page document which the FBI says it found in the baggage of Mohamed Atta, the suicide bomber from Egypt, is genuine, then the men who murdered more than 7,000 innocent people believed in a very exclusive version of Islam ­ or were surprisingly unfamiliar with their religion.

The algebra of infinite justice

Robot Wisdom manda avisar: Long, brilliant, passionate Arundhati Roy on 'infinite justice' (my new heroine)

But who is Osama bin Laden really? Let me rephrase that. What is Osama bin Laden? He's America's family secret. He is the American president's dark doppelgänger. The savage twin of all that purports to be beautiful and civilised. He has been sculpted from the spare rib of a world laid to waste by America's foreign policy: its gunboat diplomacy, its nuclear arsenal, its vulgarly stated policy of "full-spectrum dominance", its chilling disregard for non-American lives, its barbarous military interventions, its support for despotic and dictatorial regimes, its merciless economic agenda that has munched through the economies of poor countries like a cloud of locusts. Its marauding multinationals who are taking over the air we breathe, the ground we stand on, the water we drink, the thoughts we think. Now that the family secret has been spilled, the twins are blurring into one another and gradually becoming interchangeable. Their guns, bombs, money and drugs have been going around in the loop for a while. (The Stinger missiles that will greet US helicopters were supplied by the CIA. The heroin used by America's drug addicts comes from Afghanistan. The Bush administration recently gave Afghanistan a $43m subsidy for a "war on drugs"....)

Proportion

"The duration of the historic period of mankind, 5000 years, is but a small fraction of the prehistoric period. If we could compress man's age on earth into one single day of 12 hours, this literary period would begin at about 11:53 PM, the Crusades would have been fought about 1 minute 44 seconds ago, and America discovered about 55 seconds ago. But man's existence is in turn out of all proportion to the history of the earth itself. If the earth's age could be compressed into one single year, the first eight months would be completely devoid of life; mamals would not make their appearance until the second week of December; man would make his debut on December 31 at 11:45 PM, writing would have been invented less than a minute ago, Christ would have been born 22 seconds ago, and America discovered six seconds ago."

The Near East in History, Philip Hitti
