نگرشی بر اسلام

کسانی‌ که مانند من زمان شاه، و بخصوص چهل و پنج سال پیش را که انقلاب شد، به عنوان یک فرد بالغ و آگاه بخاطر می‌آورند، میدانند که چگونه جنبشی در ایران به وجود آمد که نه تنها ایران را دگرگون ساخت، بلکه بر سیاست‌های بسیاری از ملل جهان تاثیر گذاشت. کشور ایران در جهتی‌ گام بر می‌داشت که می‌توانست با یک انقلاب صنعتی و با توجه به ذخایر زیرزمینی هنگفتی که داشت، به یکی‌ از ملل پیشرفتهٔ جهان تبدیل شود. از آنطرف، انقلابی که در ایران نضج گرفت، چنانکه از طرف آمریکا و عاملین او در ایران هدایت نمی‌شد، می‌توانست بر سایر کشور‌های جهان‌ تاثیر چشمگیری نهاده، و تقسیم‌بندی سیاست‌های جهانی‌ را تغییر دهد.ا

Hyping Ukraine Counteroffensive, US Press Chose Propaganda Over Journalism

BryceGreene

September 15, 2023

It has been clear for some time that US corporate news media have explicitly taken a side on the Ukraine War. This role includes suppressing relevant history of the lead-up to the war (FAIR.org, 3/4/22), attacking people who bring up that history as “conspiracy theorists” (FAIR.org, 5/18/22), accepting official government pronouncements at face value (FAIR.org, 12/2/22) and promoting an overly rosy picture of the conflict in order to boost morale.

Becoming Frida

September 21, 2023

Frida Kahlo was born in 1907, three years before the Mexican Revolution. As a teenager, she attended the National Preparatory School in Mexico’s capital, where she excelled in anatomy and looked forward to medical school and becoming a physician. But in 1925 her goal was sideswiped by a trolley that crashed into the rickety wooden bus that she regularly took home from school. On impact, the tram’s iron handrail impaled her spinal column and exited her vagina, shattering spine and pelvis. She lived with the aftereffects of the accident for the rest of her life.

G20 is in need of genuine reform

September 12, 2023

India being the host country, the triumphalist tom-toming that G20 summit on September 9-10 was a “success” is both understandable and probably justifiable. Certainly, Indian diplomacy was in full cry. The negotiation of the G20 Declaration is no mean achievement in a highly polarised environment.

Craig Murray on the ‘slow motion execution’ of Julian Assange

September 15, 2023

As Julian Assange continues to fight extradition to the United States to face prosecution under the Espionage Act, a growing chorus of voices is rising to demand an end to his persecution. Hounded by US law enforcement and its allies for more than a decade, Assange has been stripped of all personal and civil liberties for the crime of exposing the extent of US atrocities during the War on Terror. In the intervening years, it’s become nakedly apparent that the intent of the US government is not only to silence Assange in particular, but to send a message to whistleblowers and journalists everywhere on the consequences of speaking truth to power. Former British ambassador to Uzbekistan, Craig Murray, who was fired for exposing the CIA’s use of torture in the country, joins The Chris Hedges Report to discuss what Julian Assange’s fight means for all of us.
