A Paradigm Shift In America's Intellectual Community
By Pablo Ouziel
http://www.countercurrents.org/ouziel061108.htm
The new era of voting for the lesser of the two evils has penetrated the core of America's critical intellectual community, and some of the biggest voices for change have endorsed Obama. In effect, what has taken place is the union between those opposed to imperial ideology and those endorsing it. Although this serious event has gone largely unnoticed, American intellectuals will need to reflect on its consequences seriously if they are to contribute to the building of a stable future for humanity as a whole, and in particular to mending the tarnished corrupt fabric of American society
Obama Picks Pro-Israel Hardliner For Top Post
By Ali Abunimah
http://www.countercurrents.org/abunimah061108.htm
During the United States election campaign, racists and pro-Israel hardliners tried to make an issue out of President-elect Barack Obama's middle name, Hussein. Such people might take comfort in another middle name, that of Obama's pick for White House Chief of Staff: Rahm Israel Emanuel
As Obama's Administration Takes Shape: Where Are Progressives For Obama?
By Jerry D. Rose
http://www.countercurrents.org/rose061108.htm
If Progressives for Obama are asleep at the wheel in this very first of Obama's proposed appointments, that can we look for in future actions of people from the left?
Will President Obama Feel The Pressure?
By Mickey Z.
http://www.countercurrents.org/mickeyz061108.htm
The only pressure that will be consistently exerted by those on the Left will be the pressure of their soft butts on their couch cushions as they sit back to smugly watch Jon Stewart, Keith Olbermann, Stephen Colbert, and Bill Maher
Is The Nightmare Over Yet?
By Timothy V. Gatto
http://www.countercurrents.org/gatto061108.htm
One message we must bring to the new administration is that the American People won't forget about the crimes and policies that Bush and the neo-cons put forth that changed the direction and the conscience of this nation. The facts are that if we the people do not hold the Bush Administration accountable for the things they did during their term, we are also responsible
The World's Candidate Wins
By Hamid Golpira & Gul Jammas Hussain
http://www.countercurrents.org/golpira061108.htm
The world has heaved a collective sigh of relief because their candidate has won the U.S. presidential election. Poll after poll in many countries showed that if they could have voted, Barack Obama would have received even more of a landslide than he received in the United States. And why was Obama the world's candidate? Quite simply, because they feel they can talk to him
We Have Hope, But Real Change In America
Represents An Immense Task
By John Chuckman
http://www.countercurrents.org/chuckman061108.htm
America has been living in recent decades as though its dream slogan were as meaningful as it was in 1955, but much of the prosperity in the last couple of decades was purchased by borrowing to consume beyond the nation's ability to pay
The United States Of India?
By Cynthia Stephen
http://www.countercurrents.org/stephen061108.htm
When will this day dawn in India, when we will stop engaging in fratricidal attacks on our own fellow citizens, when we will all learn to respect each other's origins, faith, and language and human rights of each other, being from the same large and diverse joint family, and and remember we are all like children playing on the lap of the same mother ? When will the United States of India become a reality?
Playgrounds For Palestine:
One Marathon At A Time
By Ramzy Baroud
http://www.countercurrents.org/baroud061108.htm
I am also certain that there are many who care just enough to build one more playground for the children in the refugee camps. My hope is that your involvement will exceed that of making a one-time financial contribution to sponsor our run, but will rather get involved yourself as a runner, or in any other way to support such important organizations as Playgrounds for Palestine: they provide hope in a time when only misery and despair seem to eclipse the lives of so many children in Gaza, in Lebanon and in those caught behind Israeli walls in the West Bank
Travesty Of Tolerance On Display
By Jonathan Cook
http://www.countercurrents.org/cook061108.htm
The Israeli Supreme Court's approval last week of the building of a Jewish Museum of Tolerance over an ancient Muslim cemetery in Jerusalem is the latest in a series of legal and physical assaults on Islamic holy places since Israel's founding in 1948
