=== News Update ===
Anti-Arab Racism, Islam, and the Left
Racism against Arabs and Muslims long preceded the 9-11 terrorist
attacks and has much of its roots in Western imperialism in the Middle
East, especially Israel's colonization of Palestine. Yet, the
escalation that we witness today can be traced to the war on terror
launched after 9-11 by Bush and his neoconservative ideologues with the
backing of the Democrats. Anti-Arab/anti-Muslim racism has helped sell
the detentions, wars, gulags, and occupations of US imperialism's latest
and boldest venture into the Middle East and South Asia. In turn, this
imperial venture has further inflamed racist views of Arabs and Muslims.
What makes this growing racism so frightening is its wide acceptance in
US society, particularly by the left. With the latter, it is not as
much conscious racism as not doing enough to fight it. Part of this may
be due to ambivalence, but it also stems from a lack of a dynamic
understanding of Islamism. Broad support gives anti-Arab/anti-Muslim
racism a sense of legitimacy and respectability that makes building a
mass movement that can end the war and occupation of Iraq difficult, if
not impossible, since so much of the support for the war is fueled by
fear and racism.

12,000 US Dead, 25,000 Badly Wounded In Iraq?
Note: There is excellent reason to believe that the Department of
Defense is deliberately not reporting a significant number of the dead
in Iraq. We have received copies of manifests from the MATS that show
far more bodies shipped into Dover AFP than are reported officially.
The actual death toll is in excess of 10,000. (See the official records
at the end of this piece.) Given the officially acknowledged number of
over 15,000 seriously wounded (and a published total of 25,000 wounded
overall,), this elevated death toll is far more realistic than the
current 2,000+ now being officially published.

Planet of the Arabs
This 9-minute feature is an acute dramatization that uses a collection

demonstrate how badly the West has been brainwashed through fiction to

9/11 five years on - still chasing shadows
It doesn't get more ridiculous than this - not a shred of evidence
against any of these so-called terrorists that they pick up here and
there, claiming success in their 'war on terror.'
Five years after 9/11, they've got nothing. Not a single person has been
tried for those crimes...
MEANWHILE:
"Evidence linking these Israelis to 9/11 is classified. I cannot tell
you about evidence that has been gathered. It's classified information."
-- US official quoted in Carl Cameron's Fox News report on the Israeli
spy ring and its connections to 9-11.

Dissecting the war on terror
After five years of post 9/11 government, U.S. foreign and domestic
