"The UN has become even more contaminated by Atlanticist projects to use it to legitimize and launch imperialist military campaigns to enforce a declining system of privilege and unjust global governance that Washington heads. The motivations behind the drafting and institutionalizing of R2P at the UN are aimed at helping to prevent this decline. This is why that either reform or an alternative to the United Nations is needed now more than ever."

"Saudi local consumption is rocketing. Residential use makes up 50pc of demand, and over two thirds of that is air-conditioning. The Saudis also consume 250 litres per head per day of water – the world's third highest (which blows the mind), growing at 9pc a year – and most of this is provided from energy-guzzling desalination plants. The Saudis already consume a quarter of their 11.1m barrels a day of crude output. They are using more per capita than the US even though their industrial base as a share of GDP is much smaller. The country already consumes all its gas. (Neighbouring Kuwait is now importing LNG gas from Russia"

And on Wednesday night, he was on."

Do you think the Annals of Internal Medicine should RETRACT the flawed study they just published that bashes organics? Should Stanford University retract it and admit their scientists are paid shills for corporate interests?

n addition to destroying many homes and leaving millions without power in Gulf Coast states, Hurricane Isaac also churned up something that BP probably wanted to stay buried: leftover oil from the BP oil spill in 2010. http://ow.ly/dw8kS
Ghosts of BP's past, present and future. We will NOT let the world forget. We will NOT allow BP to skate. Every action has a reaction, and every consequence a responsibility. How do you sleep at night BP? The answer would probably be "quite well"...
