India Calling
 India: Comeback
By Israel Shamir
India is as warm and comfortable as ever. Over thirty years have passed since I roamed around in her cities and temples as a young long-haired white-cotton-trousered journalist cub, but coming back is easy. Things on the ground have not changed much – but they have changed. It is the same dense, busy crowd in Old Delhi, but the terrible poverty and hunger has disappeared or been pushed away. It is the same immense green lawns of the British-built New Delhi, but now they are frequented by middle class families picnicking in their Sunday garb
Armed Consumerism Rejected
by J C Kapur
With its nuclear armoury and modest affluence, Indians attract more attention in the West than they did in the days of poverty, hunger and weakness. Now we pay attention to Indian political thinkers, not only to guru. I had an honour to meet few of like-minded people in India, and one of them is J C Kapur, the chief editor of the World Affairs magazine. JC Kapur wants his India to be a friend to China and Russia. He seeks “free spiritualised socialism”. He is strictly anti-Cartesian, like so many good people among our friends. Now we present a short talk given by JC Kapur in the “Russian Athens,” the city of St Petersburg.
 A Meeting with Che Guevara
by K Gajendra Singh
This is an 80th anniversary of Che Guevara’s birth, June, 14, and time to bring all sorts of memories. Here is a short memoire by our Indian friend, Ambassador Gajendra Singh, whom I had a pleasure of meeting recently in Delhi. He writes about his meeting with Che in revolutionary Algiers. Incidentally, I’ve met recently in Havana with the sole survivor of this famous trip – Che and a few other revolutionaries had spent a few months overseas, being hosted by Gamal Abdel Nasser, Nehru and others. Early sixties were great times, and there was hope that mankind will go in great harmony to great happiness, all the way until the defeat and betrayal of the 1968 Revolution. Instead, we began the downslide to dismantling of socialism, to privatisation, globalisation, war on Islam, Neocon rise to the present calamities. However, now the illusions of 80s and 90s are over; the enemy manifested himself, and he will surely be defeated! Ambassador Singh is also a survival of 1960s, like the two other Indian pundits whose texts we publish these days. They remind us of Nehru’s India, and its friendship with China and Russia, Egypt and Yugoslavia. Singh’s references to Bollywood add some charm to this short piece.

Peace with the Past
 Last year, the German edition of the US Magazine Vanity Fair published an interview with important German radical thinker and revolutionary Horst Mahler. Now we present you with a shortened English translation of the interview. It is exciting reading! A friend of Palestine and anti-zionist, an anti-imperialist freedom fighter, Mahler is considered Public Enemy № 1 by the present German regime. He is somewhat akin to Roger Garaudy, Jean Genet and Jean Luc Godard, to Carlos Ilich Sánchez and Che.

Pro-Zionist Secular Plot in Turkey
by M K Bhadrakumar
Dramatic developments in Turkey, where the constitutional court judges (the most reactionary part of establishment) in union with Kemalists allied with the pro-American generals supported by Zionists and the neo-cons staged a coup against Erdogan, a popularly elected moderate friend to Russia and Iran. The article is by the wise Indian pundit, Bhadrakumar. The enemies of democracy and our enemies are godless - and it makes us think twice about plans of "a secular state", “medina chilonit” of Jewish anti-zionists. Our friend Paul Eisen of London succinctly stated it: a "secular state" is another form of Judaic rule. We observe it in Europe as well – the most secular states, France and England, are the most heavily influenced by their Jewish communities. The country heavily influenced by the Church, Greece, is the freest from Judeo-American influence. Russia and Iran are non-secular. In Turkey, secularism is another form of submission to Zion.

In Defence of Prejudice
Israel Shamir answers ADL complaint
If all three major-party contenders for the Presidency of the Republic go, hat in hand, to proclaim their fealty to AIPAC, if a former President is unable to express his views without being brutally abused by the ADL, America may need a revolution in order to regain its freedom to express its feelings, unless the whining lot of ADL activists is somehow reined in first.

 Life Inside the Entombment Wall
By William A. Cook
The American writer William Cook writes beautiful, noble prose. Like many of us, he is inspired by the tragic events in the Holy Land. Entombment of live people, this classic subject of Edgar Poe, finds new poignancy in his writing. In Cook's unpublished novel, Nefaria, Sharon is alive, he hears and sees, but is unable to give a sign of life. Thus, according to Cook, Ariel Sharon was punished by the punishment he meted to others: he is entombed in his almost-dead body. Here we publish his short essay, a part of a post-scriptum to this novel.

Wiki, the Chaos Controlled
By Israel Shamir
Wikipedia is an important asset, like the New York Times, but both are in the hands of enemies of freedom. Sometimes good and truthful articles or entries are to be found in both, but these are specks of gold dust placed there to salt the dud mine. If Wiki wants to preserve some of its reliability, it must get rid of its Zionist enforcers. Not only of the CAMERA bumpkins, but of the hard men in black suits, the Agents Smith.

Texas Body Snatchers
By Israel Shamir
The policy of Total Spectrum Dominance promoted by the Neocons does not refer to far away lands only – to unruly Afghanistan or disobedient France. It refers to you. It is you, Americans, they want to dominate totally; by controlling your sexual lifestyle and punishing every deviation of thought and act.

The Rise and Rise of Neocons

What to do with the Elites?
AJoost van Steenis wants to break the power of elite, apparently a noble goal. However, he misses a point: elites are necessary. If elite is destroyed, counter-elite will take its place. The Rise of Jews, so many of our readers are anxious about, would not take place if the previous elites were not destroyed or undermined. Without the Great Terror of 1793, France would not be run by Sarkozy-Kouchner. Read on...

The need of a balance between Black and White antizionist agendas

Africa is preparing the second Durban UN international conference about racism, in 2009. At the first one, in August 2001, the Blacks decided to help Palestine, and succeeded in provoking a loud worldwide rejection of Israel’s racism.
Letter to Manuel Talens
By Israel Shamir
I care little about Hitler and Nazis, but I have a profound distrust of anti-nazis, of these guys who walk around with Israeli flag and demand kaffiyes to be taken off. Indeed a man who is scared by the name of Hitler should stay out of Palestine debate, for he will have to spend much of his and our time by repeating that he is not an antisemite.

It is not only about Palestine
Israel Shamir about a new paper by Joachim Martillo
The real issue is not Palestine. Unless they are neutralized, Israel lobbying groups, Israel advocates, Zionists, Neoconservatives, and Friedmanites will steal America and effectively abolish the Constitution in all but name to create a society of servitude for all Americans except for those belonging to the hyper-wealthy transnational Zionist political elite.
Neo-Lefties, the Second Boot of Jewish Lobby

Zionist Scorecard-2008
By James Petras
We are engaged in a life and death struggle against war, terror and genocide – against Imperial and Zionist barbarism. As the Zionists actively support the shredding of constitutional and judicial liberties of American citizens and residents and the expansion of a repressive security state, we should be aware of powerful enemies in high places, acting against the interests of our country. But we should recognize we also have enormous support among the American people and even tactical allies among some officials in the military and intelligence community. Above all, we are defending our own, hard-won democratic freedoms, our own families’ and communities’ security from Israeli-provoked terrorist attacks and, even more important, our right to develop policies in the interest of the American people, free from the dictates of Israel and its agents.
Empire Strikes Back: Katyn
It’s good to remember historical events, but it’s even better to forget them. History is a dangerous weapon, and it is doing fine for “Divide et Impera”. We support the idea of peace and friendship between the nations – against the Empire and in spite of the Empire’s efforts to usher strife. Poland is a place where it is especially urgent, as the anti-Russian propaganda in Poland reaches new heights. After the publicity campaign for the film “Katyn” (all soldiers of Polish Army were compelled to see his film, as the part of their “cultural training”), the construction of the American “antimissile shield” become once again the propaganda tool, serving to stir both anti-Russian and anti-European emotions among common people.

 Illustrated Introduction to Keep Shining, Cuba!
By Israel Shamir
I gave this talk at a conference in delightful Havana. After a long-time-no-see, the place looks much better, many houses and roads are fixed; drugs and prostitutes are not visible, there are newer cars, but the old charm remains. Even in dilapidated areas one finds none of the despair, violence and despondency one meets in, say, the South Bronx. People are a-singing, a-dancing and a-smoking their long cigars wherever they wish – that’s freedom!
Keep Shining, Cuba!
By Israel Shamir
A Talk given at the Second International Conference for World Balance in Havana, Cuba, January 29, 2008
I’ve brought you good news: Be not despondent -- you are not the last dugout of resistance to the Imperial rule, soon to be swept away, anymore. The tide of world history now turns, and we are ready for a counter-attack. People who oppose the Neo-Liberal Empire feel that they are not the last bison on the prairie, we are rather the victorious army of tomorrow.

 Breakout from Ghetto Gaza

Right Ho, Lobby
By Israel Shamir
The inhabitants of a stately house are embroiled in an interminable quarrel; engagement rings are returned and the cook sends in his resignation. In this hour of bloody mess, smart valet Jeeves (played by Stephen Fry in the BBC series) finds the disputants a common enemy. United by their common animosity towards this empty-headed Bertie Wooster, the lovers tread the matrimonial aisle, and the servants proclaim their renewed loyalty to their masters. Peace is restored. This ruse, applied in Right Ho, Jeeves, a pleasantry by P.G. Wodehouse, was recently employed with great success by the nefarious force often described as the Zionist Lobby.

Defending Foxman, or Cool it, Armenians
By Israel Shamir
 In questions of importance an Italian consults with his priest, a Swiss – with his banker, a German with his policeman, while an American goes to the Jews who happily unite a financial and religious institution with the secret police function... This time Abe Foxman was right. The U.S. Congress and the Jewish community shouldn't be the arbiter of history. Forget this genocide talk: the 'genocide' concept was invented by Jews, and Jewish inventions work well only for Jews... The Armenians are advised to cool it and make peace with their Turk, Azeri and Kurd neighbours.

 Our Congratulations to the People of Turkey
By Israel Shamir
Our congratulations to the people of Turkey on the election victory of the Islamic Party! This is a fateful event: the East returns to God, and finds its own way. Istanbul has followed Gaza: the AKP-ruled Turkey will be a friend to Hamas-ruled Palestine, to Islamic Iran, to Orthodox Greece and Russia, to the religious anti-occupation forces of nearby Iraq. She will again take her place of pride as the centerpiece of the Eastern mosaic, while its pro-American and God-hating generals, the Turkish Dahlans, will creep back to their barracks. Faith in God unites us, while the nationalists had divided us.

Say Not Fatah
By Israel Shamir
People of Gaza won - a true people’s victory, for it succeeded without vengeance and unnecessary bloodshed, with magnanimity, largesse, fraternal feelings. This was victory over Dahlan Gangs, the lawless criminals who ruled by force and violence over the Strip. But Dahlan - and Abbas - is not real Fatah, while Marwan Barghouti is. Fatah fighters should emulate Gaza people, and send the stooges packing to their Jewish masters.

Clio Gagged
By Israel Shamir
Before there was the Holocaust, there was blood libel. When one reads Jewish pre-WWII texts, one notices that the place currently occupied by the Holocaust dogma in the Judeocentric universe was not vacant; it was taken by pogroms in Russia, by the Dreyfus trial, by the Inquisition, by the expulsion from Spain, by the destruction of the Temple and to a great extent by the “blood libel”. They carried the same message: they proclaimed eternal, unique, reasonless and baseless suffering of Jews caused by the irrational hate of Gentiles; they united and mobilized Jews against the Gentiles; they deflated some envy, hostility and distrust into pity, even engendering guilt feelings among the best of goyim.

Carter and the Swarm
By Israel Shamir
In my native Siberia, in its short and furious summer, you can watch a swarm of gnats attack a horse, each small bloodsucker eager for his piece of the action. After a while, the blinded and infuriated animal rushes headlong in a mad sprint and soon finds its death in the bottomless moors. The Jews developed the same style of attack. It is never a single voice arguing the case, but always a mass attack from the left and the right, from below and above, until the attacked one is beaten and broken and crawls away in disgrace.
