Nomination Of Bradley Manning For Nobel Peace Prize 2013
by Nick Glossop on March 7, 2013
A chance for the Nobel Committee to redeem itself after a series of rash (Barack Obama, 2009) and absurd (European Union, 2012) choices:
Dear Norwegian Nobel Committee,
We have the great honour of nominating Private First Class Bradley Manning for the 2013 Nobel Peace Prize.
Manning is a soldier in the United States army who stands accused of releasing hundreds of thousands of documents to the whistleblower website WikiLeaks. The

by Laurence Miall on January 4, 2013
Yesterday The Guardian newspaper published a feature on Adrian Lamo, the former computer hacker turned FBI informant who entrapped Private Bradley Manning through a lengthy series of online chats. Manning now sits behind bars, charged with disclosing classified information (via Wikileaks,) and “aiding the enemy” – i.e. The Terrorists. His “crimes” are punishable by death or life in prison.
The War on Terror is the gift that keeps on giving …

Assange, Asylum, Extradition And Ecuador
by Nick Glossop on June 22, 2012
One of the unanswered questions is, you know, with all the attention to Julian Assange and with all the previous information that Ecuador was very susceptible to offers of asylum, why there were no police following Julian, why he was allowed to go into the Ecuadorian [incompr.] And I think probably the answer to that is that the British would just as soon get rid of him, they’d just as

The Julian Assange Show: with Slavoj Žižek and David Horowitz
by Andrew Loewen on April 24, 2012
I haven’t watched this yet, so I can’t speak to its merit. I can’t think of a time when Žižek has been directly pitted against a right-wing crank in debate though. Hopefully it has its moments.
Slavoj Zizek and David Horowitz are the guests for the second episode of Julian Assange’s interview show, “The World Tomorrow”. “Intellectual superstar” Slavoj Zizek is a philosopher, psychoanalyst and cultural commentator. David Horowitz is

The growing support for the OWS movement has expanded the protests’ impact and increased the potential for violence. While

The End Of The Iraq Occupation–Thank Wikileaks
by Matthew Payne on October 23, 2011
So, there’s (as usual) a great catch by Glenzilla from a CNN article that obfuscates the actual import of the news. The news is that the United States has been expelled from Iraq by its own puppet-regime in Baghdad. American negotiators have been working feverishly for most of the past three years to revise the “Status of Forces” agreement negotiated by the Bush Administration to retreat from Iraq. Aside from …

Elizabeth Warren ~ The Woman Who Knew Too Much
