The long journey to nowhere: The U.S. has become the bully on the world block

by Peter Stern

21-Jun-2010

Faintly in my memories I recall an America that was beautiful in many ways. We were a righteous national community, in a good way, respectful and hard-working. During my lifetime, I have watched with much helplessness as we reached middle age the beauty started to fade, and our actions became centered on greed and self-fulfilling daily lives with eyes that could only envision a myopic short-term span. More or less we evolved into an “if it feels good, do it” and “whoever has the most toys wins” mentality that forced a massive change in our general climate, as a nation and a people.

Why Governor Rick Perry is NOT the choice of most Texas voters

big campaign bucks show Perry's true allegiances

by Peter Stern

It is NOT the People of Texas who want Perry reelected.

The millions in Gov. Rick Perry's reelection campaign "trust fund" were contributed by a handful of select investors. It is the same small crowd that has provided Perry consistently with support and funds for years. The millions must speak volumes to Texas voters!

Did Israel have a right to declare Palestine as its statehood for all Jewish people

an Issue of World Negligence

by Peter Stern

Perhaps the real question is whether Israel had ownership rights to the Palestine land it currently occupies. Zionism had been created as a nationalistic organization and/or political movement that aggressively proposed a home state for all Jewish people and it focused on the Middle East lands of Palestine. Zionists persuaded various Western nations to support its efforts towards that end.

What is Behind Israel's Illegal Persecution of Palestinians

Israel Must Stop Its Aggression

by Peter Stern

The primary reasons for the Palestinian War are that via Great Britain's Balfour Declaration of 1917 favored and supported Palestine as the new home of the Jewish people. The problem with this declaration and imperative is that Great Britain did NOT have a legal right to make that determination. Palestine was already settled by the indigenous Semite population who had been there for 1200 years. Naturally, the Jewish people could not settle in Palestine without illegally removing the people already living in those villages and on their properties.

Civil Disobedience and Inalienable Rights:

Obama has become the articulate Bush

The only change in the new administration is the voice and the color

by Peter Stern

The politics and the policies of the previous and current administrations are identical. “The King is dead. Long live the King.”

What did Americans do to deserve this? King Barack “The Great Hope” Obama had such potential, or so many of us thought. It turns out that he is just a little more grammatically and politically correct than was his predecessor, the stumbling and bumbling King George Walker Bush who accomplished more than any previous President. Bush was able to bring the U.S. down to its knees --- and for that he will always be remembered.

Texas Governor Rick Perry: Flimflam Artist Extraordinaire

The BS flows like Texas beer...

by Peter Stern

The question is "How long will Texans permit Perry to get away with it?" Hopefully, Texans had enough and in 2010 will vote in some other candidate. It is long overdue to replace Perry.

There are No Good Reasons for Israel's Vicious Attack on Flotilla

Attacking and Boarding Ships in International Waters is Piracy

by Peter Stern

Despite what Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu states publicly there is no honorable or just cause for the violent attack on the convoy of six ships that was bringing 10,000 tons of humanitarian goods to the people of Gaza. The numbers provided show that at least 10 flotilla all civilian participants were killed and 60 were injured, while 2 Israeli commandos were injured.
