Nexus X HumectressFrom the Guardian. A businessman who published a “terrorists’ handbook” that included information about how to make bombs has been found guilty of collecting and distributing material that could have led to attacks. Terence Brown made CDs containing thousands of pages of information at his home in Portsmouth. […]
Article by Jason Ditz. A hugely significant Reuters/Ipsos poll released today revealed that, when asked which programs they prefer to cut to reduce the rising budget deficit, that Americans dramatically prefer cuts to the military over other options. A solid majority, 51%, backed cutting military spending, strongly ahead […]
An establishment conservative who’s too smart to throw in his lot with the neocons on this issue, despite his cozy personal history with them. No, says George.
Yes! Article by Jason Ditz. Top commanders in the Israeli military are warning that the military is completely incapable of crushing an Egypt-style popular uprising in the West Bank, assuming one actually begins. “There is nothing for it,” one of the commanders noted, and while the Israeli military […]
Wonder how much longer he has to live? It would indeed be amazing if Saudi Arabia began to catch up with the seventeenth century. A senior Saudi prince questioned the need for a ban on women driving on Wednesday and said lifting it would be a quick first […]
What do you want to bet the U.S. will intervene if its oil puppet is threatened? Read the article. Saudi police opened fire Thursday to disperse a protest in the mainly Shiite east, leaving at least one man injured, as the government struggled to prevent a wave of […]
Occupation 101: A thought-provoking and powerful documentary film on the current and historical root causes of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and U.S. political involvement. Watch the documentary in its entirety and uninterrupted on Youtube.
by Kevin DeAnna http://www.westernyouth.org/articles/what-they-really-think-about-us/ James O’Keefe continued his yeoman’s work exposing the progressive media for what they are — an arrogant elite bitterly hostile to Middle America. Disguised as a delegation from the fictional “Muslim Education Action Center,” which stated as an objective that “We must combat intolerance […]
Dave D’Amato explains the futility of electoralism. Counter to the statist categories of democracy that exist to give (in mainstream political jargon) a “mandate” to coercion, free market anarchists favor voluntary democracy. Leaving each individual free within her own sphere of decision-making autonomy, market anarchism contemplates group decisions […]
Kevin Carson on a true military hero. Bradley Manning, who has never actually been convicted of anything, is being punished for one crime, and one crime alone: Embarrassing the United States government. He has exposed the criminal activities of the U.S. government — including war crimes by American […]
Interesting bit of obscure history. Catholic priest and radio-personality Charles Coughlin’s Christian Front, the German American Bund, the Black Legion, and a variety of nationalist, anti-Semitic, and/or isolationist groups opposed to President Roosevelt, “Moneyed Interests,” and Marxism attracted over a million members and supporters during that decade. Collectively, […]
Article examining some interesting ideas on how localities can rein in corporate power. Hat tip the the National-Anarchist Tribal Alliance of New York. But the nascent municipal rights movement offers something new in the way of political action. These communities are adopting laws that, taken together, are forming […]
Justin Raimondo on the contending schools of foreign policy within mainstream American politics. Read the article by Justin. My view, of course, is that the empire will end only when the American state implodes domestically, whether through self-inflicted wounds or through revolutionary action, or both. In Special Providence, […]
More or less, says Anthony Gregory. Progressives need to get over their Obama fetish. Anthony Gregory, Editor in Chief of Campaign for Liberty, discusses the positive effects of governmental paralysis; why Obama gets too much credit for simply following the Iraq SOFA signed by G.W. Bush; the nearly […]
And this guy’s supposed to be some kind of anti-American, Communist-Muslim terrorist extremist? Yeah, right. The mainstream American Right needs to get over its paranoid fantasies. Article by Jason Ditz. President Obama today signed an executive order that will formalize the indefinite extralegal detention of terror suspects without […]
No underhanded tactic is too dirty for the PIGS. Radley Balko on this flagrant violation of the Fifth Amendment. It seems that in 2008, Monroe County Sheriff’s Detectives Doug Brannon and Pat Henry actually posed as a federal defense attorney in an attempt to get incriminating information out […]
Yes, there is such a thing. Jesse Walker on anti-extremism hysteria. • Is this really a time of unusually fierce fear and violent rhetoric? • Is political paranoia just a fringe phenomenon, or is it also found in the middle of the road? • What does a conspiracy […]
Interesting article arguing that efforts to silence old-fashioned conservative white nationalists like American Renaissance will only strengthen the more extreme elements of the “white right.” Read the article at Alternative Right. Firstly, the pathetically embryonic nature of any kind of White nationalist movement that the establishment seems to […]
John Derbyshire on the Nation of Islam leader. The striking thing about the address was the almost total absence of anything Islamic in it. Most of the themes and references were in fact Christian. The first few quotes I logged to any scriptures at all were to Isaiah, […]
Dave D’Amato on the neoconservatives’ most hated nation. The people of the Arab world can (and ought) to be utterly repulsed by the American state without necessarily harboring any violent hostility toward ordinary people living in the United States. Average, working people in the Middle East and in […]
Article by Dave D’Amato. For the economic program of the American ruling class to function, governments amenable to its hierarchical, corporate framework are a practical imperative. Today, the Big Business economic blueprint, created by and for the state’s elites, is so ubiquitous that no one of its vavasour […]
Pat Buchanan rebukes the latest fancy of the imperialists: intervention in Libya. Assume we attack Gadhafi’s air defenses, and in the collateral damage are a dozen children—like those kids collecting sticks on that hillside in Afghanistan—and Al-Jazeera spreads footage of their dismembered bodies across the Middle East, as […]
From Bradley Thompson of the CATO Institute. What really bothers the neocons about small-government Republicans is that they lack a “governing philosophy.” The neocons have long urged the Republicans to reinvent themselves by giving up their Jeffersonian principles and developing a new “philosophy of governance.” Ironically, though, the […]
From the Uhuru Movement. On January 6 of this year the Steering Committee of the Black is Back Coalition for Social Justice, Peace and Reparations voted to hold a National Conference on the Other Wars in this city on March 26 at a location not yet consolidated at […]
Scott Horton interviews Jason Ditz. Jason Ditz, managing news editor at Antiwar.com, discusses Robert Gates’s warning on the spillover effects of imposing a Libyan no-fly zone; the daunting prospect of invading and occupying Libya, a country larger than both Iraq and Afghanistan; why the US is incapable of […]
This is the kind of thing that needs to happen more often. Hundreds of protesters stormed a courtroom and attempted to make a citizens’ arrest on a judge in support of a man challenging his council tax bill. In chaotic scenes, police rescued Judge Michael Peake from the […]
Glenn Greenwald explains. Let’s review Manning’s detention over the last nine straight months: 23-hour/day solitary confinement; barred even from exercising in his cell; one hour total outside his cell per day where he’s allowed to walk around in circles in a room alone while shackled, and is returned […]
Hear The Dick discuss his proposal for an expanded police state in this interview with Peter Schiff.
Secessionists rally in Austin. The Texas Nationalist Movement marked Texas Independence Day with a rally on Saturday at the Capitol urging Texans to save the state by seceding from the United States. A small but enthusiastic group of Texans gathered on the steps of the Capitol, as an […]
From the This Ain’t Livin’ blog. I recently re-encountered one of the more bizarrely pervasive myths about prisons when I was talking about the prison abolition movement with a friend: The idea that prisons are ‘cushy.’ This person was trying to argue that because conditions in prisons are […]
Would someone who has read Gary Chartier’s new book be willing to write a review to be published on ATS?
Jim Goad on the Fred Phelps freak show. Based on their endless words and their tireless actions, the Westboro Baptist Church seems to sincerely believe that God is punishing America for its increasing tolerance of homosexuality. They honestly seem to think that every scrawny AIDS casualty, every soldier […]
Article by Charles Glass. That there is a long way to go became clear on the night that Hosni Mubarak resigned and mobs crowded into Tahrir Square to claim credit for a revolution that others had made. (They were like those “resisters of the eleventh hour” who jammed […]
Take lessons. Rebel-held territory in Libya has again come under sustained attack from land and air, from troops loyal to Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi, as unrest in Libya continues.
“I do think Keith Preston merits the title odd duck, if anyone does. That said, unlike with Gabb, you don’t generally see those two criticisms coming from the same group of people in Preston’s case. The people who bag on his NA-sympathies don’t generally also complain about his […]
Naomi Wolf thinks so. So where were these women in Tunisia and Egypt? In both countries, women protesters were nothing like the Western stereotype: they were front and centre, in news clips and on Facebook forums, and even in the leadership. In Egypt’s Tahrir Square, women volunteers, some […]
Anna Morgenstern on why the Left and Right are both failures. As far as I can tell, the two biggest social problems that we have in statist society are War and Poverty. And true to form, they are rarely directly addressed. In truth, there is very little sentiment […]
This some rather surreal stuff.
Whether it’s the seat belt Nazis or the tobacco prohibitionists, the therapeutic police keeps moving right along. Meanwhile, the PC police set Charlie Sheen in their sites. A good piece on the Sheen affair by one of my favorite libertarian writers, Anthony Gregory.
Daniel McCarthy on the neoconservatives Jacobinism. …what the neoconservatives mean by democracy, and what their critics know they mean, is not one man, one vote. It’s not procedural democracy but a substantive democracy: a democracy that entails an American-style mixed-market economy (“democratic capitalism”), liberal institutions of civil society […]
Excellent documentary from the late 70s/early 80s on how the state contributes to black poverty. Featuring Dr. Walter Williams. Watch it on Youtube. This is a quite a find. Hat tip to Miles Joyner for digging it up.
Wow! An article about Kropotkin at the Mises Institute. A little more than 90 years ago, on February 8, 1921, Peter Kropotkin died in Dmitrov, then a small town in Russia, about 40 miles north of Moscow. He had been born in Moscow itself almost exactly 78 years […]
Why civilization needs it deviants.
Are whites racially oppressed? A growing movement says yes. Read all about it. For some time, I have predicted that as supposed spokesmen for traditional out-groups become more powerful, and as PC becomes more firmly rooted in institutions, the members of traditional in-groups turned out-groups will begin to […]
Interesting article by Swedish nationalist Rafael Koski. The main speaker of the evening was the Croatian-American ”New Rightist” Tomislav Sunic. He talked of his Croatian and other identities, and how he would prefer an explicitly racialist identity as a White European. He acknowledged, though, that as long as […]
It’s the first state to do so. This is how I envision the revolution actually happening. If I’m correct that the liberal-Left is going to dominate U.S. national politics for the next few decades, then more and more “red states” will likely adopt such actions, and hopefully “blue […]
Glenn Greenwald on the state’s efforts to kill the solider who exposed U.S. war crimes. The U.S. Army yesterday announced that it has filed 22 additional charges against Bradley Manning, the Private accused of being the source for hundreds of thousands of documents (as well as this still-striking […]
Not exactly. Kevin Carson explains why. Although (by strong implication, anyway) Paul & Co. frame the issue as the shiftless majority voting themselves loot at the expense of the hardworking rich, what’s really happening is that the rich who control the state are smart enough to understand what […]
David D’Amato on why the regulatory state serves the alliance of state and capital. Big Business, we are frequently advised, is the enemy of our natural biosphere, forever seeking new ways to sidestep its responsibilities to the environment and to dirty it at will. This assumption is, in […]
