I am a college professor who was inspired to write this book after viewing documentaries with my students about American interventions which resulted in crimes against humanity. The images of people losing their families and homes drove my decision to expose the lies and atrocities perpetrated by American presidents.At the same time, I believe that the time is right for this type of book. The

Pol Pot imposed a revolutionary ideology on Cambodia so radical and rigid that if the countenance of a terrorized Cambodian, indoctrinated through coercion, betrayed even a hint of skepticism, that person would be summarily executed. President George W. Bush seems to have virtually achieved this kind of control in America without the threat of force as evidenced by the meekness of the media, the

If you observe the radar screen of daily news events, many of the stories registering on the screen are about two countries: Iran and Iraq. Every day there is an inundation of news stories splashing all over television, internet screens and on newspaper and magazine pages reporting, analyzing and debating the myriad issues pertaining to Iraq and Iran. As well, there is a labyrinth of

The global bully, the United States, has committed war crimes by waging wars of aggression against nations who lacked the means to defend themselves against bombers dropping their lethal cargo from the safety of 35,000 feet. Iraq, Libya, Sudan, Serbia and Iraq have all suffered civilian causalities and damage to non-military targets while failing to even scratch the paint on a single U.S.

There is a growing awareness among the chattering classes in the United States that President W. Bush may be guilty of war crimes. Democratic Congressman and ranking minority member of the House Judiciary Committee, John Conyers, introduced resolutions calling for the creation of a panel to investigate Bush and Cheney’s handling of the war. Although a long way from framing articles of

Children’s oblivious frolicking in the street,The cubicles in the market replete with wares,Vendors beseeching people in the crowded square,Customers foraging for bargained provisions,The smell of food permeating the air,Clothes and trinkets crowding the shelves,None of which portends their unforeseen fate.A faint drone above whispers its omen,Children’s eyes frozen in fear,Recognizing the

Al Jazeera's boldness in uncovering stories in Iraq and elsewhere stands in sharp contrast to American mainstream reporters who are nothing more than stenographers for the pentagon and the Bushites. They seem content to accept whatever crumbs that are thrown their way without making a conscious effort to investigate further or to explore events beyond the obvious bias of the military. Since 1989

The recent vote in the Senate to deny prisoners their basic rights is a comment on the commitment to the rule of law of the American Government. By refusing to grant the prisoners at Gitmo and elsewhere the right of habeas corpus, the Senate is ignoring one of the fundamental rights in a democracy. Habeas corpus is the only protection against arbitrary arrest and detention.There is no

Every three seconds a child dies of absolute poverty. Although hurricane Katrina, the earthquake in Pakistan, and the American and Iraqi deaths are great tragedies, they shrink in comparison to the various disasters plaguing developing countries. Despite the availability of anti-viral drugs, millions die of aids every year in Africa because the big multi-national pharmaceutical companies refuse

Rosa, Lois and Cindy: The Power of OneCindy Sheenhan has become a catalyst in a groundswell of opposition to the war and military occupation of Iraq. She is joining a company of people whose actions contributed to milestones in history. Democracy, civil rights, women’s rights and many other hard-won inalienable rights were the result of many years of struggle and great sacrifices. In many cases

THE DOWNING STREET MEMO: SO WHAT’S NEW?After the leak of the Downing Street memo, the smoke has been wafting through the air from the barrel of the proverbial incriminating gun obliterating any remaining doubts that President Bush committed premeditated murder. The contents of the Downing Street memo should squelch all doubts about whether President Bush was determined to go to war against Iraq
