  • Math proves that Israel’s stated goals are an epic lie

    Math proves that Israel’s stated goals are an epic lie

    Twelve buildings are destroyed every hour in Gaza. (Hadi Daoud APA images) When you’re in Gaza and see the destruction firsthand, the clearest conclusion is that Israel’s stated goals are an epic lie, on a par with “a people without a land for a land without a people,” packaged and sold to the world. The […]

  • Years of Living Deniably

    Years of Living Deniably

    The summer of discontent is upon us. Whether we will find ourselves witness to direct exchange of fire or targets of another global counter-insurgency sweep is anyone’s guess. This time in 2020 the most massive abrogation of human and civil rights (temporary privileges granted to selective populations at different levels) in recorded history was accelerating […]

  • “Extremely Harrowing”: British Surgeon’s Gaza Testimony Buried By The “MSM”

    “Extremely Harrowing”: British Surgeon’s Gaza Testimony Buried By The “MSM”

    Propaganda by omission is a dominant feature of the ‘mainstream’ news media. Indeed, it is a requirement. Rather than serving the public interest by fully exposing the brutal machinations of power, state-corporate media shield Western governments and their allies from scrutiny and focus the public’s attention on the crimes of Official Enemies. Israel’s genocidal attack […]

  • “Medicalization”: Profit and Behavior-Control

    Thanks to the credulity and docility of the majority of Americans, Big Pharma has largely succeeded in medicalizing virtually every deviation from corporate-dictated, machine-like, behavioral uniformity.  In an era of expanding ignorance, fear sells–especially through meticulously crafted TV ads.  (“Ask your doctor if Viagra may be right for you.”) The collusion between Big Pharma and […]

  • Drugmakers OD on Insane Prices, Incessant Commercials

    Prices for prescription drugs in America average almost three times as much as in other major nations around the world. Even more, the companies that set those prices are doing everything they can to make sure they stay in the stratosphere: they filed suit to overturn an upcoming reform, having Medicare negotiate the prices of some of the costliest and […]

  • Israel Is Assaulting Hospitals in Gaza with Full U.S. Support

    Israel Is Assaulting Hospitals in Gaza with Full U.S. Support

    Many decades ago in Chicago, my favorite of several part-time student jobs was operating the “old-style” telephone switchboard at a small hospital called Forkosh Memorial. The console of coils and plugs included a mirror so operators could keep an eye on the hospital entrance, which on weekends and evenings was also monitored by an elderly, […]

  • How Consumer Drug Advertising Turned the Public into Pill Poppers

    How Consumer Drug Advertising Turned the Public into Pill Poppers

    One night in 1997, as Americans were parked on the couch in front of an episode of Touched by an Angel, they were touched by something else unexpected: an ad for a prescription allergy pill called Claritin®, promoted directly to the consumer! Prescription drugs had never been sold directly to the public before, because, without […]
