Turkey-Israeli Relations: It’s Not a New Turkey, It’s The Right Time
Uri Avnery’s assessment of the recent Israeli-Turkish diplomatic and political row - that “the relationship between Turkey and Israel will probably return to normal, if not to its former degree of warmth” – seems sensible and daring. In my view, however, it is also inaccurate. Simply put, there is just no going back. In a recent article entitled “Israel Must Get Used to the New Turkey,” Suat Kiniklioğlu, Deputy Chairman of External Affairs for Turkey’s ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) wrote, “Israel appears to be yearning for the golden 1990s, which were the product of a very specific situation in the region. Those days are over and are unlikely to come back even if the Justice and Development Party (AKP) ends up no longer being in government.. » read more

Jan. 15, 2010 “In Post-War Iraq, Use Military Forces to Secure Vital U.S. Interests, Not for Nation-Building” — The Heritage Foundation And just in case you still haven’t got the point, the same Heritage Foundation document, dated 25 September, 2002 went on to tell us, “Protect Iraq’s energy infrastructure against internal sabotage or foreign attack to return Iraq to global energy markets and ensure that U.S.. » read more

Emperors of Silent Wars Propaganda, Destruction, and Madness
Dec. 14, 2009 Ever since the fall of Baghdad, the volatility of virtually the entire Middle East has been ‘off the charts’. Principally, this development had to do with the ridiculous, grand-sounding imperial project of heralding in a watershed of democracy through the use of shocking and awful means. As soon as the greatest military force in history stepped foot on Arabia – adamant to grab the will of Providence by the collar – flashpoints began to spark up left, right and centre. The scars and pains of millions were not to distract the emblem of freedom from its historic mission.. » read more
The CIA digs a grave for America in Yemen
Dec. 12, 2009 In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful Al Qaeda leads the world Power America to its fate, and drags it to a new grave that leaves no parasite except that it swallows it, it is Yemen, the land that stood defiant before all occupation and turned their plans to memories. It is not expected of the American people to understand the conspiracies of the Big companies which run their country and whose finance depends on lighting the fire of war and conflicts, because it is so drunken away from what its leaders are doing of dragging them a hopeless drag towards flames and the end would be the fate of the former Soviet Union. The state of the Soviet Union is apparent before everyone, disintegration, separation and collapse in different fields, while earlier, it was, as you know, in a station of power and control. But then it left what was in its hands and was lured by what was above the tree, it did not protect what was in its hand, and couldn't even get what was above the tree.. » read more
