Navi Pillay: US Imperial Tool by Stephen Lendman On April 14, her latest report looked like earlier ones. She lies for power. She condemned "rampant use of torture in detention in Syria." She duplicitously blames Assad largely. More on what she said below. Syria condemned earlier fabricated torture reports. On January 22, its Justice Ministry dismissed a UK Carter-Ruck law firm politicized report. It called it baseless. It lacked "objectivity and professionalism," it said. Carter-Ruck is linked to Syrian opposition groups. Its report was malicious propaganda. It buried truth. It had no credibility whatever. Its aim was discrediting Syria. It tried subverting ...

We're All Ukrainians Now by Stephen Lendman On February 22, 2014, Ukrainian freedom died. Western-supported fascist putschists seized power. They ousted Ukraine's democratically elected government. Mob rule replaced it. Illegitimate xenophobic, ultranationalist, neo-Nazi, anti-Semitic thugs run things. They do so with full US backing. Eastern Ukrainians reject Kiev putschists. They want democracy. They want the real thing. They want what Americans don't have. They're going all-out to get it. They're a role model for freedom fighters everywhere. They deserve universal support. They continue rallying across Eastern Ukraine. They seized government buildings. ...

Sheriff Mack, the other sheriffs, various state legislators, Oathkeepers and average people who make up our militias personify the words courage, integrity and honor. May God bless and protect every brave soul who went to the aid of a beleaguered family. Our American heroes prevented another Ruby Ridge and Americans should forever be grateful to all who went to the aid of Cliven Bundy. America ...
What Ukraine Propaganda Looks Like

What Ukraine Propaganda Looks Like by Stephen Lendman It's like US propaganda. Like other Western propaganda. Big Lies repeat. They proliferate. They follow one after another. Truth is systematically buried. The Ukrainian News Agency (UNA) is Kiev-based. It's part of the UA Inter Media Group Limited. It owns 61% of the Ukrainian TV channel Inter. On April 13, it headlined "Foreign Ministry: There is Evidence of Russian Special Forces' Involvement in Seizure of Government Facilities in Eastern Ukraine." Allegations are baseless. No evidence whatever proves them. John Kerry accused Russia of the same thing. Sergei Lavrov confronted him responsibly. In diplomatic ...
How Lending A Friend Your Car, Then Going to Bed Can Land You a Life Prison Sentence

Several years ago I read a piece in The New York Times by Adam Liptak about Ryan Holle. Ryan, who had no prior record, is serving a life sentence with no chance of parole in Florida. He was convicted of pre-meditated murder, even though no one, including the prosecutor, disputes that Ryan was asleep in his bed at home at the time of the crime. This could only happen in America, because we are the only country that retains the Felony Murder Rule. What the Felony Murder Rule essentially says is if anyone has anything to do with a felony in which a murder takes place, such as a robbery, that person is as guilty as the person who has committed the murder. Every other country including England, ...

US Anti-Iranian Arrogance by Stephen Lendman Iranian President Hassan Rohani appointed Hamid Aboutalebi as permanent Tehran UN ambassador. It's effective July 25, 2014. More on him below. Last week, Congress unanimously voted to deny him visa permission to enter America. Effectively he was declared persona non grata. Legislation passed "den(ies) admission to the United States to any representative to the United Nations who has engaged in espionage activities against the United States, poses a threat to United States national security interests or has engaged in a terrorist activity against the United States." Neocon Ted Cruz (R. TX) sponsored Senate legislation. He ...

Ukrainians Denied Democracy by Stephen Lendman Claiming otherwise doesn't wash. Moscow called Kiev events "an illegitimate fascist coup and a military seizure of power." Western-supported putschists seized it. At the same time, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov urges deescalating crisis conditions. It's completely possible, he said. It requires replacing putschists with democratic governance. It involved instituting responsible policies. Ones that protect fundamental legal rights and freedoms of all Ukrainians. Ones that guarantee them. Russia is on the right side of history. It promised help. It set four conditions. It wants legitimate Crimean independence ...

Palestinian Children's Day 2014 by Stephen Lendman In 1925, the World Conference for the Well-Being of Children first proclaimed a day to honor children. In 1954, it was universally established. Dozens of countries recognize it. Variants include the UN's November 20 Universal Children's Day. It was established to encourage all countries to institute a day. It urged doing so to promote mutual exchange and understanding for children's rights. It was done to promote child welfare worldwide. On November 20, 1958, UN members adopted the Declaration of the Rights of the Child. On November 20, 1989, the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) became law. Universal ...

Meet Obama's New HHS Chief by Stephen Lendman She's like the old Health and Human Services chief. She's Sylvia Mathews Burwell. More on her below. Kathleen Sebelius is out. She said she resigned. Maybe she was pushed. Obamacare claimed its latest victim. She served as chief architect. She presided over its disastrous rollout. Obama's Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) is a giant scam. It rations care. It's a ripoff. It's a monstrosity. It's rife with unacceptable inequities. It does nothing to control costs. They're spiraling out-of-control. They're increasingly unaffordable for growing millions. ACA makes a dysfunctional system worse. ...

The establishment media is now paying attention to Cliven Bundy and his struggle with the Bureau of Land Management. Most of this coverage assumes Bundy is engaged in illegal cattle grazing on federal land. “The U.S. government is rounding up Bundy’s cattle that it says have been grazing illegally on public lands in Clark County for more than 20 years, according to the land-management bureau and the National Park Service,” CNN reports today. The BLM insists “Mr. Bundy has… failed to comply with multiple court orders to remove his cattle from the federal lands and to end the illegal trespass.” It is the BLM, not Cliven Bundy, who is in violation of the law ...
Obama's War on Immigrants

Obama's War on Immigrants by Stephen Lendman Obama exceeds the worst of his predecessors. He governs lawlessly. He does so multiple ways. He targets humanity globally. He does so at home. He's waging racist war on immigrants. He mocks notions of welcoming tired, poor, wretched masses yearning to breathe free. He enforces white supremacist policies. Poor, desperate arrivals aren't welcome. People of color are scorned. America never was beautiful. For sure it's not now. Obama reflects the worst of rogue leadership. He deported larger immigrant numbers than all his predecessors combined. On average he exceeds 1,000 a day. In total it's over two million. With nearly ...

Fascist Police Attack Anti-Maidan Protesters by Stephen Lendman Fascist police operate the same way everywhere. They do it across America. They brutalized nonviolent Occupy Wall Street activists. FBI officials equated them with terrorists. Independent journalists covering them were harassed, arrested, handcuffed and beaten. It happened in New York's Zuccotti Park. They were accused of trespassing. They had valid NYPD-issued press passes. It happened nationwide. Peaceful protesters were accused of pursuing violence. Rogue cops got free reign to attack them. Global justice activists are treated the same way. Free expression is denied. So is public assembly. Petitioning government ...

A slave is somebody compelled to provide service to another. Elane Huguenin, a wedding photographer from New Mexico, was arraigned before that state’s “human rights” soviet for politely declining to provide her services to a lesbian couple planning a “commitment ceremony” (the state doesn’t recognize same-sex marriage). The couple had no difficulty finding another photographer willing to accept payment for that service, and thanks to their punitive impulses – and the totalitarian “public accommodations” law in that state – they were able to use money extracted from Huguenin in the form of fines in order to pay for their photographs.

Eastern Ukrainian Resistance by Stephen Lendman Thousands of Eastern Ukrainians reject Kiev putschists. Perhaps millions. They want local sovereignty. They want autonomy rights. They want them respected. They reject fascist rule. They demand their own referendum. They want Ukraine federalized. Protests continue in Kharkov (Ukraine's second largest city), Donetsk (its largest industrial city), Dnepropetrovsk, Lugansk, Odessa, Nikolayev and elsewhere. They're growing. They're spreading. They have legs. Maybe parts of Western Ukraine will join them. Ukrainians are long-suffering. They rejected Orange Revolution rule years earlier. Perhaps Orange Revolution 2.0 won't fare ...

One freedom at a time, one right at a time, one battle at a time, we the people are losing each and every one of our liberties to federal authorities, and will continue to do so until we stand up against them together. The story below is yet another example of the police state USSA in action. Once again a situation where federal authorities arbitrarily change laws and rules and just expect the general public to blindly follow those rules. Well one man, a rancher by the name of Cliven Bundy, has refused and does not recognize any federal authority over the land and now dozens of armed federal officers, rangers and agents, are preparing a showdown with this one older gentleman you will ...

Madness in Ukraine by Stephen Lendman This year's March madness wasn't in America. Nor what continues in April. Or what preceded it. Or perhaps what's likely to follow. It's in Ukraine. It's ground zero. It represents the greatest geopolitical crisis since WW II. It threatens a third global conflict. It that's not madness, what is? Obama bears full responsibility. His rap sheet is blood-drenched. He's waging multiple direct and proxy wars. He's got lots more mass slaughter and destruction in mind. He wants unchallenged US global dominance. He wants Russia marginalized, isolated, weakened, contained and co-opted. His objectives risk global war. Ukraine ...

Supreme Court Rules for Big Money by Stephen Lendman It didn't surprise. It's supremely pro-business. It's always been this way. It's more than ever now. It supports Big Monied interests. It does so over democratic governance. It's on the wrong side of most issues mattering most. On April 2, it repeated a familiar pattern. Its McCutcheon v. Federal Election Commission decision ruled one dollar = one vote. It struck down federal campaign contribution limits. It did so disgracefully. It gave monied interests more power. Writing for the majority, Chief Justice John Roberts referred to the landmark 1976 Buckley v. Valeo ruling saying: "We conclude that the ...
Court: Improper for Judiciary to Decide Whether Killing US Citizens with Drones Violates Due Process Rights

A federal judge was unable to find no remedy in United States law for a claim that United States citizen’s due process rights were violated when they were targeted and killed by a drone. The case was dismissed because the judge determined the citizen had been properly designated a terrorist, posed a threat to US interests, and the judiciary should not interfere in the areas of “warmaking, national security and foreign relations.” Essentially, this means the executive branch in the US government can claim the power to collect secret evidence as part of a secret review process and place a US citizen suspected of engaging in terrorist activities on a kill list. The decision to ...

Kiev Sniper Shootings: Lies v. Truth by Stephen Lendman Ukraine putschist authorities are illegitimate. Arsen Avakov is interim interior minister. On Thursday he lied. He pointed fingers the wrong way. He outrageously accused Ukraine's legitimate President Viktor Yanokovych, his interior minister Vitali Zakharchenko, and Russian security elements of direct involvement in Kiev sniper shootings. "The former government of the country gave criminal orders and a huge number of people suffered in the 'mincer'," he said. He cited no evidence whatever proving it. None exists. He said a dozen Ukrainian so-called Black Unit Berkut police officers were detained on suspicion ...

INDIANAPOLIS – FBI agents seized thousands of artifacts Wednesday from a 91-year-old man’s private collection at his home in rural central Indiana and says it will return the items that were wrongfully in his possession Donald Miller, from Waldorn, amassed the collection over eight decades, the FBI said. The items include artifacts from Native Americans, Russia, China, and other nations. "The cultural value of these artifacts is immeasurable," FBI Special Agent Robert Jones said at a news conference. He refused to disclose details of any of the individual items taken from Miller's property. Some items were acquired improperly, but Miller, who traveled ...

Last week, the Department of Justice (DOJ) announced it did not intend to appeal last month’s court decision which removed Rahinah Ibrahim from the "No-Fly list" – making her the first person in years to be taken off that bureaucratic black- hole relic of the Bush war on terror. This is great news for Ibrahim. But she has been battling for seven years to win this victory for herself. The rest of the however many thousands of folks on that list remain there, with no clear road out of that swamp. And that’s only a small aspect of the myriad ways in which Americans and visitors to America are harassed, oppressed and impeded during their travels. Last month, the ...
