KARACHI – Jamaat-e-Islami chief Munawar Hasan has observed that the dual education system was producing a sense of inferiority and materialist minds in society. Pakistani society in particular and entire Islamic world in general, needed students equipped with the abilities to reform society, besides obtaining modern and Islamic education. He said that injustice and prejudice could be eliminated from society, when each and every individual would play his/her due role.


 The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP)being negotiated by 13 countries would lead to increased gas exports and increased imported foods, while undermining our domestic laws and increasing the financialization of nature.
The secretive talks are in their 14th round, having begun under George W. Bush in 2008, and have so far managed to avoid real scrutiny. Little of the document being negotiated has been made publicly available, but what we do know is frightening. The TPP would go well beyond NAFTA tearing down protections in the areas of financial services, telecommunications and intellectual property. It would create free trade for dairy, sugar and textiles. American manufacturers and farmers would suffer, while Wall Street banks reap huge profits and move more operations offshore.
The TPP is being sold as just another “free trade” agreement. But don’t be fooled, it’s so much more. Only two of the twenty-six chapters of the agreement are directly trade related. 
In reality the TPP would be a permanent power grab by greedy corporations and their financers that would make it impossible for future generations to choose what laws and rules they want to live under. The TPP would permanently enshrine the very economic system that has lead to greater imbalances in income and wealth and increasing economic crises – all enforced by new international tribunals akin to the WTO. It’s outrageous.

Sweet Misery: A Poisoned World


Aspartame Documentary: After 7000 miles, and 25 hours of footage, "Sweet Misery" will reveal one of the most pervasive, insidious forms of corporate negligence in the history of the industrial revolution.

The toxic long-term effects of aspartame are often dismissed as a "hoax" by the sweetener industry and at least five other internet websites. The real footwork, however, unravels something less comforting than a mere "Hoax."

"Sweet Misery" is the title of a documentary released by Sound and Fury in June of 2004. Our primary investigation includes interviews with doctors, lawyers, people who have had health probems which they associate with aspartame usage, advocates, and many others.

"Aspartame is inherently, markedly and uniquely unstable in aqueous media"

is a quote from the congressional record in 1985, and yet it was approved for use in soft drinks and other beverages.


The USA openly printed millions of textbooks to support the Jihad in Afghanistan and Pakistan against the Soviets and Afghan Communists.

Vaccines engage some aspect of the body's immune-response, but to what effect over the long term?





Eyewitnesses described fierce scuffles between groups of men who bought slabs of drink bottles at local convenience shops and hurled them at police. Most of the protesters treated on the scene were suffering from pepper spray-related injuries, while the two police officers taken to hospital with head wounds were released after observation.

The public order and riot squad remained on standby last night to quell any further outbreaks of violence, and a team called Strike Force McAlister was formed to track down ringleaders.

Are you realizing yet how controlling (and limiting) Apple is? For iPhones, Apple has been granted a patent to DISABLE RECORDING during events, or when near government buildings. The point of it? To make sure citizens cannot record anything the corporations and governments don't want them to record. Very spooky Big Brotherish stuff... http://www.naturalnews.com/037220_iPhone_recordings_patent.html
An employee identified as Jess Richards “states that during a test of the lower annular, Transocean blew up their 22 casing,” lawyers suing Transocean and BP said of an email that the rig owner turned over as part of the litigation. “She then remarks, ‘I’m sure we will find some way to blame it on the cementer,’” the attorneys said in a filing Friday in federal court in New Orleans.

IS THE RIGHT WING RUNNING OUT OF HEROES?

 It was a pleasant surprise (almost an insult) that one of New York’s most right wing media outlets chose my personal hero as one of their own …. Have a look…..

Naomi Klein talked about the Israeli war economy in her book The Shock Doctrine (2007) warning:
“The Israeli Export Institute estimates that Israel has 350 corporations dedicated to selling homeland security products, and 30 new ones entered the market in 2007. From a corporate perspective, this development has made Israel a model to be emulated in the post-9/11 market. From a social and political perspective, however, Israel should serve as something else—a stark warning. The fact that Israel continues to enjoy booming prosperity, even as it wages war against its neighbors and escalates the brutality in the occupied territories, demonstrates just how perilous it is to build an economy based on the premise of continual war and deepening disasters.”


CROSSING THE ULTIMATE RED LINE

Similarly, we must not hold all Christians responsible for the disgusting behavior of one idiot who claims to be a follower of Jesus Christ. After all, there are thousands of sincere Christians who have voiced their indignation and outrage at this outrageous act. We salute these courageous Christians for their solidarity and decency. They are our natural partners in the long and difficult battle for inter-religious fraternity and universal brotherhood.

9/11, Zionism and Islamophobia

The 9/11 attacks happened at the height of the second intifada and Israeli propaganda went into full gear – with some success – in portraying Israel’s war to steal the land of Palestinians and suppress their rights as a “war on terror” – often a code for a “war on Muslims.” And in the years after 9/11, prominent Zionist propagandists adopted or legitimized Islamophobia as one of their main discourses, something that helped newly virulent strands of Islamophobia enter the American mainstream today.
Now, Netanyahu and Israel’s supporters in the US are apparently indignant that the US won’t go to war for Israel in Iran (at least not yet, and I do not put it past Obama).
But here we are eleven years later to the day, and Netanyahu’s approach is the same: ask not what Israel can do for the United States, but what the United States can do for Israel – regardless of the cost to the United States and the rest of the world.

WATCHING SYRIA, REMEMBERING NICARAGUA

U.S. leaders are 100 percent behind the armed FSA/SNC revolt in Syria for the same reason that they opposed the Sandinista revolution and supported the Contras in Nicaragua. They are confident that the victory of the Syrian opposition would be their victory as well, and another step toward full U.S. domination of the Middle East.
