The Mumbai Attacks:
More Than Meets The Eye
By Jeremy R. Hammond

http://www.countercurrents.org/hammond041208.htm

While the evidence strongly points to LeT and a network of associates affiliated with the group or with each other, that web also includes the CIA and MI6


"India's 9/11":Perils In Parallels
By Shakeel Syed

http://www.countercurrents.org/syed041208.htm

It is time to act for all people, not just Indians or Pakistanis. In allowing the Indian discourse of 9/11 parallels is perilous for all people, especially US interests

Mumbai Carnage, Wish It Was The Last Horror!
By Mirza A. Beg

http://www.countercurrents.org/beg041208.htm

The only effective way to remove the cancer of terrorism is to leave the hubris of the 20th century behind, ushering a new peaceful and just millennium by adhering to the International Charter of Human Rights and strengthening the United Nations. This requires the modification of the Security Council so that no country, irrespective of its size, wealth or power is above the international law

Hotel Taj: Icon Of Whose India ?
By Gnani Sankaran

http://www.countercurrents.org/sankaran041208.htm

It is a matter of great shame that these channels simply did not bother about the other icon that faced the first attack from terrorists - the Chatrapathi Shivaji Terminus (CST) railway station. CST is the true icon of Mumbai. It is through this railway station hundreds of Indians from Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Rajasthan, West Bengal and Tamilnadu have poured into Mumbai over the years, transforming themselves into Mumbaikars and built the Mumbai of today along with the Marathis and Kolis

Woody Guthrie: A Little Recession Music, Please
By Mickey Z.

http://www.countercurrents.org/mickeyz041208.htm

Woody Guthrie laid the foundation for generations of American singer-songwriters to use their music and lyrics to challenge the prevailing platitudes of popular music…and to provide a Greek chorus of protest and outrage to keep us all more honest and aware

700 Billion Times 10
By Tim Buchholz

http://www.countercurrents.org/buchholz041208.htm

If I am a bank and I have $10, I can loan out $100.00. Pretty good right? I only need to have $1 million to loan out $100 million, at interest. And, if I have $700 billion, I can loan $7 trillion, at interest. That's pretty close to $7.6 trillion, remember that number? Sounds like another bubble getting ready to burst to me

Kidnapped At Gunpoint And Deported By Israeli Forces: And She Will Return
By Eileen Fleming

http://www.countercurrents.org/fleming041208.htm

On November 18, 2008, Darlene Wallach of California was kidnapped at gunpoint by Israeli forces and deported to New York City on Thanksgiving Day. She arrived without money, passport, cell phone, warm winter clothes and had no way of contacting her family and friends in California, London, or Cyprus

The Semantics Of Third World
By S.Faizi

http://www.countercurrents.org/faizi041208.htm

An Australian cricketer's disparaging remark about India as a Third World country and the rebukes it has elicited in India and Pakistan offers a long overdue opportunity to debate the use of the expression Third World so that this term of prejudice and disdain could be banished. The rejoinders' claim that India is not a 'Third World' country and assumption that some other countries are the Third World, is, however, rather under-informed

Censorship In America?
By Timothy V. Gatto

http://www.countercurrents.org/gatto041208.htm

How can this nation let it's government know what we want if we don't know what is really going on? The only advice I can offer to my fellow citizens is to scream like hell to end "selective" news reporting, or to go to the internet for your news. I only wish I could publish this in a venue that would actually inform those who need informing. This will be published on the internet, and sadly, we all know this information already. It won't reach the people that need to read this

Obama's Choices: The Planet's Demands
By Jeff Berg

http://www.countercurrents.org/berg041208.htm

The challenge before Obama, his team, and those of us who still possess the luxury to engage in this kind of work, is how best to engage the spirit of cooperation fostered by this financial crisis. How to harness the collective anxiety now being experienced by those at the very top to institute the changes that many at the very bottom have long sensed are essential. Essential changes that most now know will have to be instituted sooner or later. Either proactively out of the choices offered by enlightened self-interest or retroactively by the brute force of circumstances
