Bearing witness to the ragtag rebel victory enabled by NATO in Libya and ongoing chaos throughout the region, Petras disassembles America’s collapsing Middle East policy. http://salem-news.com/articles/february092012/petras-book-honors.php http://salem-news.com/articles/february092012/petras-book-honors.php Thu, 09 Feb 2012 18:07:00 PST “Prof. Israel Finkelstein & Neil Silberman, Two of archaeology’s leading scholars shed new light on how the Bible came into existence. They assert, for example, that Abraham, Isaac and Jacob never existed, that David and Solomon were not great kings but obscure chieftains and that the Exodus never happened.” http://salem-news.com/articles/january282012/bible-unearthed-ae.php http://salem-news.com/articles/january282012/bible-unearthed-ae.php Sat, 28 Jan 2012 12:16:00 PST 2011 was a turbulent year for the world. With chained revolutions in the Arab world, mounting financial crisis in Europe and the unprecedented wave of protests and mass demonstrations in the U.S. against the corporate system of the government which has long swallowed the rights of the defenseless majority of the people voraciously, one can call 2011 the year of global unrest and tumult. http://salem-news.com/articles/january092012/turbulent-2011-kz.php http://salem-news.com/articles/january092012/turbulent-2011-kz.php Mon, 09 Jan 2012 18:35:00 PST The first headline I thought of for this article was The Zionization of American democracy and how it could be terminated, but then I said to myself: “Don’t be silly, Alan, there’s no democracy in the ‘Land of the Free.’” Leaving aside the fact that any American can now be arrested and detained without due process, there’s no mystery about why. http://salem-news.com/articles/january092012/zionist-usa-ah.php http://salem-news.com/articles/january092012/zionist-usa-ah.php Mon, 09 Jan 2012 13:23:00 PST In a violent world where a genocide can claim as many as six million human lives in a single 'program', it seems unimaginable that the deaths of 29 people could, in modern times, hugely impact the future of all human beings. That's right, the world's safety and World War Three itself, hinges on the reaction to the deaths of 29 innocent people. Is your child's future worth the honor of 29 people? http://salem-news.com/articles/january082012/29-deaths-tk.php http://salem-news.com/articles/january082012/29-deaths-tk.php Sun, 08 Jan 2012 00:52:00 PST We learned today that Britain sends its best warships to the Gulf. Britain's newest warship is heading to the Gulf for its first mission at a time of tensions over Iran's threat to close the strategic Strait of Hormuz, a key transport route for oil. The Royal Navy's Type 45 destroyer HMS Daring, which has a "stealth" design to help avoid detection by radar, is to join other British ships in the region, the Ministry of Defence confirmed Saturday. http://salem-news.com/articles/january072012/israeli-war-ga.php http://salem-news.com/articles/january072012/israeli-war-ga.php Sat, 07 Jan 2012 16:54:00 PST The Freda Utley Foundation announced today that a video of the National Press Club book event on RABBI OUTCAST: Elmer Berger and American Jewish Anti-Zionism, by Jack Ross (Potomac Books) has been posted at a new Rabbi Outcast YouTube channel. http://salem-news.com/articles/january072012/rabbi-book.php http://salem-news.com/articles/january072012/rabbi-book.php Sat, 07 Jan 2012 15:19:00 PST Louis Gatewood Galbraith died today, 4 January. Loved and admired by both family and a large circle of friends, this American lawyer and author from the U.S. state of Kentucky was a five-time candidate for Governor. Mr. Galbraith has been an outspoken proponent of education and also privacy rights and other civil liberties. In his most recent race, he was defeated as the Independent candidate for Governor in the 2011 general election, Wikipedia explains. http://salem-news.com/articles/january042012/gatewood-galbraith-bj.php http://salem-news.com/articles/january042012/gatewood-galbraith-bj.php Wed, 04 Jan 2012 13:32:00 PST Gilad Atzmon somehow manages to express his thoughts, ignoring any recognised taboos or restrictions. His style is innovative, fresh, and consistently well informed. We have read with great interest his latest book “The Wandering Who? A Study of Jewish Identity” (*). http://salem-news.com/articles/december232011/catori-atzmon.php http://salem-news.com/articles/december232011/catori-atzmon.php Fri, 23 Dec 2011 15:37:00 PST I start from the premise that Martin Luther King expressed: “Injustice anywhere is injustice everywhere”. In the country of my birth, The Devil’s Own Country, I experienced similar injustice committed against the native peoples and the black people as Tamils suffer, especially in Sri Lanka where they are subjugated to Shinalese chauvinism. http://salem-news.com/articles/december132011/ridenaur-tamils-rr.php http://salem-news.com/articles/december132011/ridenaur-tamils-rr.php Tue, 13 Dec 2011 16:21:00 PST A new report details human experiments led by US researchers and drug companies on Africans who are typically undereducated, poor, and lack full understanding of their rights. The human subjects often are led to believe that they are receiving medical treatment from governmental health services or health ministries. The report is titled “Non-Consensual Research in Africa: The Outsourcing of Tuskegee” in reference to the illegal human experiment conducted in Tuskegee, Alabama, on some 600 impoverished African-American men. http://salem-news.com/articles/december042011/tuskegee-africa-fz.php http://salem-news.com/articles/december042011/tuskegee-africa-fz.php Sun, 04 Dec 2011 21:13:00 PST Nick Bryant, author of two books on the precarious status of America’s children, and an expert on child trafficking and sexual abuse, says the Penn State-Sandusky case bears the following parallels to other child abuse networks that are documented in his book THE FRANKLIN SCANDAL. Bryant took seven years to research and write one of the few commercially published books on child abuse networks and trafficking, The Franklin Scandal... http://salem-news.com/articles/november222011/penn-state-connections.php http://salem-news.com/articles/november222011/penn-state-connections.php Tue, 22 Nov 2011 16:30:00 PST David Landy, an Irish-Jewish academic and a Palestinian solidarity activist has written a book about Jewish Identity and Jewish dissent in the Diaspora. The book, published on 7th July 2011, was largely ignored by most pro-Palestinian outlets and dissident journals. Almost four months later, Landy’s book was re-launched by JFJFP (Jews for Justice for Palestinians), in the hope, presumably, that it might divert attention from my own The Wandering Who. http://salem-news.com/articles/november142011/jewish-id-pal-rights-ga.php http://salem-news.com/articles/november142011/jewish-id-pal-rights-ga.php Mon, 14 Nov 2011 13:12:00 PST The Republican Party started out in 1854 as an anti-slavery coalition of folks living in the Northeast and upper Midwest who were opposed to the Kansas-Nebraska Act. http://salem-news.com/articles/november102011/lincoln-marx-tb.php http://salem-news.com/articles/november102011/lincoln-marx-tb.php Thu, 10 Nov 2011 21:37:00 PST Rabid Zionist Alan Dershowitz is devastated by the success of ‘The Wandering Who’. He just cannot accept that professors and academics endorse the book “as ‘brilliant,’ ‘fascinating,’ ‘absorbing,’ and ‘moving’,” In his latest article he again misses an opportunity to debate the book, its message and its meaning. He prefers instead to indulge in the only things for which he possesses any talent at all - lying and bullying. http://salem-news.com/articles/november102011/dershowitz-lies-ga.php http://salem-news.com/articles/november102011/dershowitz-lies-ga.php Thu, 10 Nov 2011 02:39:00 PST The Islamic Republic of Iran is much in the news these days with the spectre of nuclear warfare now looming in the background. What was life like in Iran just before the return of Ayatollah Khomaini to his native land in early 1979? A new book by Robert Bangor gives one spectator’s view of the country, neatly dressed in an entertaining tale. http://salem-news.com/articles/november102011/burnt-city.php http://salem-news.com/articles/november102011/burnt-city.php Thu, 10 Nov 2011 00:18:00 PST As the 48th anniversary of America’s saddest weekend approaches, Author Ed Haslam, DR MARY’S MONKEY, says it’s time to re-think our history. He's willing to explore that in interviews as the JFK Assassination date approaches on Nov. 22. “We know more about Lee Oswald today than ever before,” explains Haslam, whose groundbreaking book uncovered new information and witnesses about Oswald's final days in New Orleans. http://salem-news.com/articles/november092011/lee-oswald.php http://salem-news.com/articles/november092011/lee-oswald.php Wed, 09 Nov 2011 19:31:00 PST In his new book “The Wandering Who”, Gilad Atzmon reflects on his transforming journey from an IDF “Israeli”, a racist tribalist, self-ghettoized Zionist, with exclusionist mentality, who was greatly influenced as a child by his “veteran Zionist terrorist” grandfather, into simply a Universalist and Humanist. A courageous and enthralling journey that began in the most unexpected places, in one of the suburbs of occupied Jerusalem, Al Quds, and by no other tool than a musical instrument, a saxophone! http://salem-news.com/articles/november062011/gilad-atzmon-ni.php http://salem-news.com/articles/november062011/gilad-atzmon-ni.php Sun, 06 Nov 2011 03:10:00 PST Gilad Atzmon the famous ex Israeli musician, philosopher writer whose new book “The Wandering Who?” has caused fury amongst pro Israel groups is no stranger to controversy. A few months ago he caused a stir when Sheikh Raed Salah a respected figure amongst Arab Israelis visited the UK and was arrested for no other reason except that the Israel lobby in Britain demanded it, Atzmon wrote: “Welcome to the United Jewish Kingdom”. http://salem-news.com/articles/november052011/jewish-uk-ss.php http://salem-news.com/articles/november052011/jewish-uk-ss.php Sat, 05 Nov 2011 21:39:00 PDT In this edition of the show we discuss the book: Exploding Middle East Myths, written by Greg Felton. For nearly 63 years, since its creation in 1948, the state of Israel has carefully controlled what the Western world knows about the Zionist state. As a result, what we have received from the mainstream media is reams of propaganda and little truth when it comes to the racist and bellicose state. http://salem-news.com/articles/november022011/middleast-myths-ga.php http://salem-news.com/articles/november022011/middleast-myths-ga.php Wed, 02 Nov 2011 22:15:00 PDT During the past three decades, international legal expert Francis A. Boyle has dealt with some of the most difficult problems created by Britain’s continued military occupation of six northeast counties in Ireland. In so doing, he along with other Irish Americans engaged the formidable Irish American domestic lobby in support of the Irish resistance. http://salem-news.com/articles/october312011/ireland-human-fb.php http://salem-news.com/articles/october312011/ireland-human-fb.php Mon, 31 Oct 2011 18:25:00 PDT No American story in modern history has more importance than the tragic assassination of U.S. President John F. Kennedy. It represents a pivotal moment in the development of the character and nature of the United States. Author Judyth Vary Baker, the former girlfriend of Lee Harvey Oswald, says JFK's loss set into motion a pattern of corruption that is only now, in 2011, being addressed by the Occupy Wall Street movement http://salem-news.com/articles/october202011/judyth-vary-baker-tk.php http://salem-news.com/articles/october202011/judyth-vary-baker-tk.php Thu, 20 Oct 2011 03:31:00 PDT Here we go again: Jewish Zionists and Jewish 'anti-Zionist' yet again join forces to burn a book that, amongst other things, explores the Jewish culture of book-burning. Is this a coincidence? I don’t think so. It seems as if award-winning Islamophobic Harry’s Place is now so desperate to stop ‘The Wandering Who’ that they wail, “Why Is The Times Selling an Antisemitic Book?” http://salem-news.com/articles/october202011/read-gilad-ga.php http://salem-news.com/articles/october202011/read-gilad-ga.php Thu, 20 Oct 2011 02:20:00 PDT This past week, an investigative journalist named Guy Taylor wrote an eye-opening expose' regarding the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) and their part in the staggering production of narcotics in this country in the past decade plus. Mr. Taylor's article in its entirety is linked below. For years, I have questioned government agencies why a dangerous drug such as OxyContin is in such plentiful supply on the streets. http://salem-news.com/articles/october182011/dea-enablers-ms.php http://salem-news.com/articles/october182011/dea-enablers-ms.php Tue, 18 Oct 2011 01:53:00 PDT I tend to agree with Shlomo Sand that Jews invented themselves as a nation over a century ago. But it was interesting to find out this week that Naomi Wimborne Idrissi and her three Jewish Anti Zionist comrades AKA AZZ (anti Zionist Zionists) were desperate to invent Gilad Atzmon. For me, the Jewish anti Zionists, exhibit the most amusing ideological pathology of all Jewish collectives. http://salem-news.com/articles/october152011/inventing-gilad-ga.php http://salem-news.com/articles/october152011/inventing-gilad-ga.php Sat, 15 Oct 2011 18:10:00 PDT Why is Congress, the FDA, the FTC and the DEA allowing the American Pain Foundation to be kept fat and well financed by pharma in marketing the bogus "undertreatment of pain" in the U.S. while we fight an epidemic of prescription drug addiction and death? The United States makes up only 4.6 percent of the world’s population, but consumes 80 percent of its opioids — and 99 percent of the world’s hydrocodone, the opiate that is in Vicodin. http://salem-news.com/articles/october092011/addicted-nation-ms.php http://salem-news.com/articles/october092011/addicted-nation-ms.php Sun, 09 Oct 2011 23:47:00 PDT To better understand my view, either put Pink Floyd’s “MONEY” (DARK SIDE OF THE MOON 1973) on while reading this or go to the link below and listen while reading it. Who knows, might help but then again maybe you’ll just get morose and ask yourself: “WTF, why am I browsing for more bad news on the web?” Whatever. Color me comfortably numb. http://salem-news.com/articles/october092011/fixing-stupid-rb.php http://salem-news.com/articles/october092011/fixing-stupid-rb.php Sun, 09 Oct 2011 16:19:00 PDT On 28th September I was a guest on the Kevin Barrett’s radio show. We spoke about everything: Israel, Palestine, freedom of speech, Islam, Judaism, Jewish identity, Zionism, Nazism vs. Zionism, The Guardian and its 'new cult' , The Wandering Who, The Wondering me, the ‘left’, Jewish ‘anti’ Zionism and more. Chating with Kevin is an inspiring event. http://salem-news.com/articles/october82011/gilad-kevin-show.php http://salem-news.com/articles/october82011/gilad-kevin-show.php Sat, 08 Oct 2011 19:58:00 PDT They say a picture is worth a thousand words. On Monday, in Perugia, Italy, Amanda Knox won her appeal against her 2009 murder conviction and was found innocent. While all the media’s eyes were on Amanda Knox during the reading of the verdict, a famous Italian journalist by the name of Mario Spezi who co-authored the best selling book The Monster of Florence, was there to grab the shot of a lifetime. http://salem-news.com/articles/october062011/knox-verdict.php http://salem-news.com/articles/october062011/knox-verdict.php Thu, 06 Oct 2011 01:45:00 PDT A wave of understanding accompanies Gilad Atzmon's new book, 'The Wandering Who' and it is no wonder that his opponents, who support apartheid laws in Israel, are fuming. Truth is a dangerous drug and Gilad overdosed his share of readers with this one. Gilad is only one of Salem-News.com's writers who doubles as an author, but none have drawn the response that we are seeing with this clever-titled book that rips the lid off of the racism that sets the stage for Israel's very existence. http://salem-news.com/articles/october032011/wandering-who-ga.php http://salem-news.com/articles/october032011/wandering-who-ga.php Mon, 03 Oct 2011 14:34:00 PDT
