    1. A Biological Walk Down Wall Street
      Economics, Symbiosis and Parasitoids

      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2008
      Wall Street today, with the collapse of Freddie Mac, Fanny Mae, AIG, Lehmann Brothers, Washington Mutual and the rest as to come, is highly reminiscent of that scene in ‘Alien’ where the parasite begins to burst out. The host is the free market. Feeding the parasitoid more, in sense of allowing it to nourish on public funds as new host, will have the same denouement, only this time the host will not just be a particular market, but the whole market, and the society reliant upon it.
    2. Broken Barricades: The Oaxaca Rebellion in Victory, Defeat, and Beyond
      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2008
      An analysis of the 2006 Oaxaca rebellion and its contradictions. Its diversity encompassed workers, indigenous groups, Stalinists, anarchists and others. Its weapons and tactics included general assemblies, strikes, barricades, mirrors and fireworks.

    4. Chasing a Mirage
      The Tragic Illusion of an Islamic State
      Resource Type: Book
      Published: 2008
      According to Tarek Fatah, "Morality is doing what is right, regardless what we are told; Religious dogma is doing what we are told, no matter what is right."
      Fatah argues that since Islam's advent, there have been two parallel strains of the religion that are in clash. The first "state of Islam" is a person's moral compass; the way Islam governs an individual's personal life. By contrast, the yearning for "an Islamic state" has been bloody and fruitless.
    5. Contaminated Meat, Contaminated Water: From Walkerton to Listeria
      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2008
      The current listeria outbreak has the feel of deja vu all over again. Once again, we are hearing about companies and industry associations lobbying for fewer inspections and less ‘interference’, and about a compliant right-wing government only too eager to give them what they want.
    6. Criticism not disloyal
      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2008
      Support for Palestinian rights thus need not come at the expense of concern for Israelis – in fact, advocating changes to Israeli policies that perpetuate war, anger, and resistance is the truest promotion of Israelis’ well-being.
    7. Free Speech and Acceptable Truths
      Statement of the Alumni for Responsible Speech

      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2008
      While we support freedom of speech and academic freedom, we believe that university administrations have a duty to provide a safe learning environment in which students and faculty are protected by incorrect or harmful ideas. To achieve this safe learning environment, it will be necessary for the university authorities to cleanse the university's libraries of harmful books, to block inappropriate Internet sites, to ban guest lectures who hold improper views, and to identify and prosecute students and faculty who are guilty of thought crimes.
    8. Free speech for me - you shut up
      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2008
      The right to express offensive views is at the very heart of the princple of free speech.
    9. If I Am Not For Myselt
      Journey of an Anti-Zionist Jew
      Resource Type: Book
      Published: 2008
      In A journey through family memory and leftwing history, Marqusee introduces us to Jewish heretics and heroes. In proudly reclaiming the Jewish radical tradition, he reminds us that cultures are not the exclusive franchises of nation-states, and that Zionists and anti-semites share the same sinister, racialized concept of group identity.
    10. If I Can't Dance ....
      Why is the Left So Boring?

      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2008
      Rovics asks, why is so much of the left in the US so attached to being so dreadfully boring? Why do so many people on the left apparently have no appreciation for the power and importance of culture? And when organizers, progressive media and others on the left do acknowledge culture, why is it usually kept on the sidelines?
    11. Inclusion or exclusion
      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2008
      People who advocate a vision of distinct communities that speak different languages, keep apart from each other, and communicate with the structures of the larger society only through interpreters, are doing more harm than good. What they are advocating is not diversity but entrenched division.
    12. Israeli minister threatens "holocaust" as public demand ceasefire talks
      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2008
      Israel's deputy defense minister Matan Vilnai has threatened Palestinians in the occupied Gaza Strip with a "holocaust." The comments came a day after Israeli occupation forces killed 31 Palestinians, nine of them children, one a six-month-old baby, in a series of air raids across the Gaza Strip.

    16. Leader and Vassal
      Bringing Death and Destruction to Muslims

      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2008
      Americans do not think of themselves or of Israel as terrorist states, but the evidence is complete and overwhelming. Thanks to the power of the Israel Lobby, Americans only know the Israeli side of the story, which is that evil anti-semite Palestinians will not let blameless Israelis live in peace and persist in their unjustified terror attacks on an innocent Israeli state.
    17. The Lion and the Gazelle
      On Jewish History

      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2008
      If we, the Israelis, want to consolidate our nation, we have to free ourselves from the myths that belong to another form of existence and re-define our national history. We must recognize the difference between myth and history, between religion and nation, between a Diaspora and a state, in order to find our place in the region in which we live and develop a normal relationship with the neighboring peoples.
    18. Mistaken Identity
      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2008
      Historically, antiracists challenged both the practice of racism and the process of racialisation; that is, both the practice of discriminating against people by virtue of their race and the insistence that an individual can be defined by the group to which he or she belongs. Today's multiculturalists argue that to fight racism one must celebrate group identity. The consequence has been the resurrection of racial ideas and the imprisonment of people within their cultural identities. Racial theorists and multiculturalists, the French philosopher Alain Finkielkraut observes, have 'conflicting credos but the same vision of the world'. Both fetishise difference. Both seek to 'confine individuals to their group of origin'. Both undermine 'any possibility of natural or cultural community among peoples'. Challenging such a politics of difference has become as important today as challenging racism.
    19. The Moronic Sport: ORVs on Public Lands
      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2008
      I do not accept the premise that abuse of our lands is something that we must tolerate as inevitable. It is our land. It is our children's land, and their children's land. We have a responsibility to pass these lands on to the next generation in better condition than we found them.
      Talking about promoting 'responsible' ORV use is like suggesting we ought to promote "responsible wife abuse" or "responsible child abuse."
    20. Of National Lies and Racial America
      Jeremiah Wright, Barack Obama and the Unacceptability of Truth

      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2008
      To some, the horror of 9/11 was not new. To some it was not on that day that "everything changed." To some, everything changed four hundred years ago, when that first ship landed at what would become Jamestown. To some, everything changed when their ancestors were forced into the hulls of slave ships at Goree Island and brought to a strange land as chattel. To some, everything changed when they were run out of Northern Mexico, only to watch it become the Southwest United States, thanks to a war of annihilation initiated by the U.S. government. To some, being on the receiving end of terrorism has been a way of life.
    21. The OIC does not speak for Muslims
      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2008
      Tarek Fatah says that "To suggest that any criticism of Islamism, the political ideology of the Muslim Brotherhood and the Iranian Ayatollahs, is anti-Islamic is a bogus and fraudulent position. I would contend that my religion Islam demands that I stand up to these bullies and take away from their right to put padlocks on poetry and chastity belts on independent thinking."
    22. Power to the (Palestinian) People!
      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2008
      I am not a Palestinian; I am not one of the oppressed. I only hope I can use my privilege in an effective way in order to redeem the gift the people of Gaza have given all of us: the realization that the people do have power and can prevail even in the face of overwhelming power. We may each express our responsibility towards the people of Gaza in whatever way most suits us, but as the privileged we must do something.
    23. A pro-Israel group's plan to rewrite history on Wikipedia
      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2008
      Electronic Intifada exposes a secret scheme by a pro-Israel pressure group to infiltrate the popular online encyclopedia Wikipedia to rewrite Palestinian history, pass off crude propaganda as fact, and take over Wikipedia administrative structures to ensure these changes go either undetected or unchallenged.

      Social Movements Between Woodstock and the Web

      Published: 2008

    25. Rosa Luxemburg's Shock Doctrine
      The "Hideous Nakedness" of Imperial Wars

      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2008
      Luxemburg’s discussion regarding capitalism and democracy speaks to the world we live in today. Imperial war, she wrote, shows capitalism in “all its hideous nakedness.” This bloody nakedness is not only essential to capitalist development, but depends on it. Indeed, it is the most cataclysmic and radical of all capitalist shocks.
    26. Storming Heaven
      1968 Revisted

      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2008

    27. Strange Fruit
      Why Both Sides Are Wrong in the Race Debate
      Resource Type: Book
      Published: 2008
      Malik makes the case that most anti-racists accept the belief, also held by racialists and outright racists, that differences between groups are of great importance. While racialists attribute the differences to biology, anti-racists attribute them to deep-rooted cultural traditions which are typically seen as inherent in the group. Malik argues that these positions are actually quite similar, and makes the case that racism and racial inequality are best combatted by focusing not on our differences but on what unites us. Malik also strongly criticizes the cultural relativism of many anti-racists, and their increasing tendency to reject science as some kind of western imperialist conspiracy to oppress the rest of the world.

      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2008

    29. War Crimes Airbrushed from History
      Evidence of Israeli "Cowardly Blending" Comes to Light

      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2008
      A report written by a respected Israeli human rights organisation, one representing the country's Arab minority not its Jewish majority, has unearthed evidence showing that during the 2006 Lenanon war Israel committed war crimes not only against Lebanese civilians -- as was already known -- but also against its own Arab citizens.
    30. Why both sides are wrong in the race debate
      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2008
      For all the talk about culture as fluid and changing, multiculturalism, no less than old-fashioned racism, invariably leads people to think of human groups in fixed terms.
    31. Addressing the Violence: My Roadmap to Peace
      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2007
      In order for peace to set sail there should be some guiding principles. The most important is equality. This is not to say that the conflict is between two equals. Overwhelming Israeli power and unconditional United States support has no comparison on the Palestinian side, other than the tragic balance of terror that has been reached with Israel through suicide bombing. But neither side should be treated differently from the other.
    32. Agreement on terms
      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2007
      I have come to accept that western journalists cannot accurately, let alone objectively, represent the Middle East and the Arab world. The problem is not that journalists do not always adhere to their own professional codes and methods, though that does happen. It is that even if correspondents strictly obey all the rules, they still present a fundamentally biased and skewed picture of the Middle East.

    37. Carter's Inconvenient Truths
      An Honest Man Refutes Propaganda

      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2007
      The reason that Israel has been able to appropriate Palestine unto itself with American aid and support is that Israel controls the explanation of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. At least 90% of Americans, if they know anything at all of the issue, know only the Israeli propaganda line. Israel has been able to control the explanation, because the powerful Israel Lobby brands every critic of Israeli policy as an anti-semite who favors a second holocaust of the Jews.
    38. Celebrate Jewish Glasnot
      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2007
      Although you wouldn't know it if you followed Jewish life simply through the activities of such major Jewish communal bodies as the Conference of Presidents of American Jewish Organizations and the Anti-Defamation League, the extent to which the eight million Jews of the Diaspora identify with Israel is increasingly open to question (much to the horror of the Zionist-oriented Jewish establishment).

      Imperialism, “Anti-Imperialism”, and the Continuing Relevance of Rosa Luxemburg

      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2007
      Rosa Luxemburg's framework enabled her to see how capitalism could ultimately destroy society — barbarism, in her words, or the “mutual destruction of the contending classes” as the Communist Manifesto put it in 1847 — by being required to turn more and more to primitive accumulation and non-reproduction, a prophecy we see materializing before our eyes today.

    47. Health care and children in crisis in Gaza
      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2007
      These days one hears a lot about Canadian soldiers in Afghanistan, adults who have been specifically trained for warfare, who are nevertheless traumatized by the experience of seeing comrades injured or killed, or suffering injuries or danger themselves. The trauma goes on, long after the experience has ended and they are back in a place of safety. How much worse then for children in Gaza who witness and experience these events day after day, week after week with no end and with no place of safety.
    48. How green are your ethics?
      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2007
      The assumption that underlies much of the discussion on carbon neutrality is that any activity that emits CO2 - and that means virtually every human activity - is something to apologise for. All human activities must be judged by their carbon content, and the morality of an action gauged principally by its carbon count. Carbon calculators have become the moral barometers of our age.

      Published: 2007
    52. The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy
      Resource Type: Book
      Published: 2007
      Mearsheimer and Walt describe the remarkable level of material and diplomatic support that the United States provides to Israel and argue that this support cannot be fully explained in either strategic or moral grounds. This exceptional relationship is due largely to the political influence of a loose coalition of individuals and organizations that actively work to shape U.S. foreign policy in a pro-Israel direction. Mearsheimer and Walt contend that the lobby has a far-reaching impact on America’s posture throughout the Middle East and the policies it has encouraged are in neither America’s national interest nor Israel’s long-term interest.
    53. Married to Another Man
      Israel's Dilemma in Palestine
      Resource Type: Book
      Published: 2007
      Karmi argues that Israel has never been able to solve the original and unresolved Zionist quandary of how to create and maintain a Jewish state in a land inhabited by another people. She maintains that the problem is unsoluable and that the only solution is a single secular state in which Jews and Palestinians are equal.

    55. Overcoming Zionism
      Creating a Single Democratic State in Israel/Palestine
      Resource Type: Book
      Published: 2007
      Joel Kovel argues that the inner contradictions of Zionism have led Israel to a 'state-sponsored racism' fully as incorrigible as that of apartheid South Africa and deserving of the same resolution. Only a path toward a single-state secular democracy can provide the justice essential to healing the wounds of the Middle East. Kovel draws on his detailed knowledge of the Middle East to show that Zionism and democracy are essentially incompatible. Ultimately, Kovel argues, a two-state solution is essentially hopeless as it concedes too much to the regressive forces of nationalism, in which lie the roots of continued conflict.

      Dershowitz for the Defense -- of Waterboarding

      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2007
      Whitney exposes the hypocrisy of Alan Dershowitz, who claims to support civil liberties while advocating the use of torture. Dershowitz seems to believe that he should be considered a liberal because he says that prisoners should only be tortured by "nonlethal means, such as sterile needles, being inserted beneath the nails to cause excruciating pain wthout endangering life." Whitney characterizes this as "barbarism".

      A study of controversies in the feminist movement from the 1960s to the 2000s. Siegel wants readers to know about the multifaceted and contentious history of what is called feminism's "second wave" so that they can avoid both the trap of rebelling against its supposed stodgy "political correctness" and that of idealizing its supposedly harmonious "sisterhood".

      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2007
      Ignoring racism on the grounds that all citizens are equal and hence that racial or cultural differences are immaterial is clearly unacceptable. But so is labelling individuals by race, culture or faith and creating conflicts by institutionalising such differences in public policy.
    65. The Wall, Apartheid and Mandela
      Will the Wall Bring Down Israel?

      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2007

      Resource Type: Film/Video
      Published: 2007
      A documentary about water privatization. Residents of Highland Park, Michigan, known as the birthplace of the auto-industry, have received water bills as high as $10,000; they have had their water turned off, their homes foreclosed, and are struggling to keep water, a basic human right, from becoming privatized. The Water Front is the story of an American city in crisis but it is not just about water. The story touches on the very essence of our democratic system and is an unnerving indication of what is in store for residents around the world facing their own water struggles.

    67. We Own the World
      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      First Published: 2007
      Published: 2008
      The whole debate about the Iranian “interference” in Iraq makes sense only on one assumption, namely, that we own the world. If we own the world, then the only question that can arise is that someone else is interfering in a country we have invaded and occupied.
    68. Who owns knowledge?
      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2007
      The resurgence of a Romantic view of culture poses a real menace to the free flow of knowledge and threatens to corral it into intellectual Bantustans. The ideas of free speech and open debate become meaningless if we fail to defend a universalist concept of knowledge or if we accept the notion of science as but a local view whose factual claims must defer to cultural and political needs. If scientific debate is constrained to express only sentiments with which people feel comfortable, culturally and politically, then science dies as the line between knowledge and myth becomes eroded.
    69. Why do we still believe in race?
      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
      Published: 2007
      Races are difficult to define and there are no objective rules for deciding what constitutes a race or to what race a person belongs. People can belong to many races at the same time.
    70. Why Israel?
      Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter

      A routine strategy of Israel’s defenders is to continually redirect attention to the human rights failings of countries hostile to Israel, or to catastrophes like Darfur that are used to argue the ongoing need for the sort of “humanitarian interventions” that provide cover for the advancement of U.S. interests. Yet the question of why Israel is being targeted and not some other country assumes, erroneously, that other countries are not being targeted. The reverse, in fact, is usually the case. Often, countries deemed acceptable for criticism by supporters of Israel are already subject to political and diplomatic sanctions by the U.S. and its tool, the UN Security Council – sometimes for acting in ways identical to Israel.

      Pretending that Muslims have never had it so bad might bolster community leaders and gain votes for politicians, but it does the rest of us, whether Muslim or non-Muslim, no favours at all. The more that the threat of Islamophobia is exaggerated, the more that ordinary Muslims come to accept that theirs is a community under constant attack. It helps create a siege mentality, stoking up anger and resentment, and making Muslim communities more inward looking and more open to religious extremism.
