The Financial
Abyss
By Peter Goodchild
http://www.countercurrents.org/goodchild101108.htm
There is something hypocritical in the fact that governments are shedding tears over these troubles. After all, both governments and businesses should have seen what was coming --- and probably did so. Instead of preventing the problem, they have created a new feudalism: the very rich and the very poor. And all of the above is only the blip before the bang
America's Energy Crunch Comes Home
By Michael T. Klare
http://www.countercurrents.org/klare101108.htm
Of all the challenges facing President Barack Obama next January, none is likely to prove as daunting, or important to the future of this nation, as that of energy. It will prove a monumental challenge because the United States faces an energy crisis of unprecedented magnitude that is getting worse by the day
Obama's Victory
By Ghali Hassan
http://www.countercurrents.org/hassan101108.htm
The immediate goals for President Obama should include his promise to withdraw U.S. troops from Iraq and dismantle the Republican religio-fascist ideology. In addition, President Obama should end the murderous occupation of Afghanistan and commit his Administration to end Israeli occupation of Palestinian land, including the suffocating Israeli military siege of Gaza. It is long overdue that an honest U.S. administration takes a decisive and courageous approach to Israel's illegal and oppressive policies. There will be no peace without justice
Obama Mania
By Stephen Lendman
http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman101108.htm
Beware of excessive optimism that each time has been wrong. A severe meltdown possibility may have passed but it's not out of the question if poor future policy choices are made. That's for the new Obama team to avoid plus having to deal with whatever else the Bush administration does in its final weeks. It's botched things so badly up to now so there's no telling how much more piling on they'll do into January. Whatever happens until then, they'll be no joy in 2009, and no simple task for the ablest of appointees or assurance that their best efforts will work
Obama's Change Orgy
By Dr. Elias Akleh
http://www.countercurrents.org/akleh101108.htm
After Obama's presidential victory a euphoric feeling swept the streets of most of the States. Thousands of people gathered in the Grant Park in Chicago, thousands others went into the streets of their cities celebrating this occasion. They called it a historic election, a nonviolent revolution, a dream comes true, a breakthrough and a victory over racism. Obama was called a hero, a savior, and some even called him a messiah. Obama's call for change has become an orgy that tantalizes peoples' feelings and hopes
Bush's Last Bullet: Why The US Attacked Syria
By Ramzy Baroud
http://www.countercurrents.org/baroud101108.htm
It was a warning to Syria, but considering Bush's dwindling weeks in office, it might as well be a late warning that would yield nothing but further animosity towards the US, not just in Syria but throughout the world
The Anti-Incumbency Movement Is Dead
By Joel S. Hirschhorn
http://www.countercurrents.org/joel101108.htm
Voting out congressional incumbents failed this year, showing the anti-incumbency movement to be a clear letdown. For some years many groups and their websites have been advocating voting out congressional incumbents as an effective means to reform government and make it work better

Bajrang Dal. VHP. Abhinav Bharat. The names of ultra right-wing outfits are increasingly cropping up as investigators wake up to a new form of terror. Rana Ayyub tracks the dangerous trend
Journalistic Fascism
By Yoginder Sikand
http://www.countercurrents.org/sikand101108.htm
Ajit Sahi is an investigative reporter with the New Delhi-based Tehelka magazine.

In this interview with Yoginder Sikand, he talks about how influential sections of the Indian media are playing a major role in demonizing Muslims today
