How Climate Change Affects You

By Amy Goodman

"We will start seeing more and more years like this year when you get these amazing events that caused tremendous death and destruction".

http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article26144.htm



Ignoring the Obvious

The Floods and Fires, the Droughts and Disasters Will Continue: I've just returned from Niger. There, tens of thousands of people are facing extreme hunger because of the droughts of the last two years.

In Weather Chaos, a Case for Global Warming

The climate is changing," said Jay Lawrimore, chief of climate analysis at the National Climatic Data Center in Asheville, N.C. "Extreme events are occurring with greater frequency, and in many cases with greater intensity."

Time to Declare Global War on Flooding

Video

Laura Flanders, GRITtv: "The flooding in Pakistan has displaced 2 million people, killed at least 1600 and affected 14 million. It should be affecting all of us. A disaster of global proportions, requiring a global response, as Gwynne Dyer noted on our show not long ago, it offers a hint of what we can expect if climate change continues on apace. While it's not a cause and effect equation, if we want to know what rising waters look like? Look at Pakistan."

Record Summer Heat Wave a "Sample of What's to Come"

Elizabeth McGowan, SolveClimate: "Oppressive temperatures gripping Southern and Eastern US states this summer will only worsen if little is done to curb greenhouse gases, according to an August report update from the National Wildlife Federation (NWF), a conservation group.... This hot summer is a continuation of what the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration says is already the hottest January through June on record."

Frauenrechte in Afghanistan, ein Feigenblatt für den Krieg - Afghan Women Have Already Been Abandoned

Nicht nur das "Time Magazine" möchte uns glauben machen, dass es beim Einsatz am Hindukusch auch um die Rechte der Frauen geht. Das Leben der meisten Afghaninnen ist hart und so manches Schicksal tragisch. Doch die Anwesenheit der internationalen Truppen hilft ihnen nicht. Artikel von Barbara Vorsamer in der Süddeutschen Zeitung vom 11.08.2010 http://www.sueddeutsche.de/politik/frauenrechte-in-afghanistan-ein-feigenblatt-fuer-den-krieg-1.986902

Aus dem Text: „Auf dem aktuellen Titel des US-Magazins Time prangt das Bild einer Frau ohne Nase. Daneben steht: Was passiert, wenn wir abziehen. Das ist ein einprägsames, emotionales und überzeugendes Argument für den Einsatz in Afghanistan. Allein: Es ist falsch. Bibi Aishas tragische Lebensgeschichte ereignete sich zwischen den Jahren 2003 und 2009 - zu einer Zeit, zu der die internationalen Truppen in Afghanistan waren. Kein Nato-Soldat hinderte die Taliban an ihrer grausamen Rechtsprechung. (...) Das Coverbild des Time Magazine hält Maaß in Verbindung mit der Aussage "Was passiert, wenn wir abziehen" für eine unzulässige Instrumentalisierung. Die Expertin betont: "Internationale Soldaten sind nicht nach Afghanistan geschickt worden, um Frauenrechte zu schützen." Im Afghanistankrieg werden Frauen als Feigenblatt missbraucht. Gekämpft wird nicht wegen ihnen - und auch nicht für sie.“

Afghan Women Have Already Been Abandoned

By Ann Jones

I know Bibi Aisha, the young Afghan woman pictured on the August 9 cover of Time, and I rejoice that her mutilated nose and ears are going to be surgically repaired. But the logic of those who use Aisha's story to convince us that the US military must stay in Afghanistan escapes me.

Tales from the Northwest Frontier

AntiWar.Com
by Philip Giraldi

08/19/10

A recent example of a magnificently false and malicious narrative appeared in Time magazine, which featured a cover photo of an Afghan woman with her nose cut off. The magazine suggested that the United States has to remain in Afghanistan to prevent similar mutilations, a concept that is both breathtaking in its irrelevance and suggestive of borderline imbecility on the part of the magazine’s readers. Time‘s tale is a throwback to the days of the British Empire, the white man’s burden, a bizarre narrative in which America’s bold warriors are sacrificing their lives to protect the weak and helpless across the Khyber Pass and along the Northwest Frontier. Would that it were so, but devastated wedding parties targeted by drone pilots sitting in air-conditioned comfort in Nevada tell a different story...

To borrow the famous line from the 1976 film ‘Network,’ Americans are mad as h... at Washington — and they’re not going to take it anymore. That, at least, is the conclusion from the latest NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll, which finds: that less than half the country approves of President Obama’s job; that the percentage believing the current Congress is either below average or among the worst is at an all-time high …

Is the US bankrupt?

QandO
by Bruce McQuain

08/12/10

Note the two words — ‘immediate’ and ‘permanent.’ In order to pay off the huge debt our ‘betters’ in Washington DC have run up over the years, strictly from the revenue side, our taxes would have to see an ‘immediate’ and ‘permanent’ doubling. Sounds like bankruptcy to me...

Humanitäre Hilfe statt Kriegseinsätze

Zum Welttag der humanitären Hilfe der Vereinten Nationen am 19. August erklärt Christine Buchholz, Mitglied des Geschäftsführenden Parteivorstandes:

Die humanitäre Hilfe der Bundesregierung für Pakistan sind Peanuts im Vergleich zu den Ausgaben für den Krieg in Afghanistan. Die Bundesregierung hat Pakistan Soforthilfe erst von einer Million Euro, dann 15 Millionen Euro versprochen. Allein der Afghanistan-Einsatz der Bundeswehr kostete letztes Jahr eine Milliarde Euro. Angesicht der drohenden humanitären Katastrophe in Pakistan gilt es, dieses Missverhältnis zu beseitigen. Hunderttausende Menschen in den pakistanischen Grenzregionen waren bereits auf der Flucht vor den Bombardierungen durch die USA. Nun wird diese Region durch den Monsunregen überschwemmt. Ein langfristiges Hilfsangebot gegen sozialen Missstände und die Folgen des Klimawandels muss aufgelegt, der NATO-Krieg und militärische Aufrüstung beendet werden. Zudem wird angesichts der Überschwemmungskatastrophe zum wiederholten Mal deutlich, wie unentbehrlich ein internationales Klimaschutz-Abkommen ist. Die Industrienationen müssen den klimapolitischen Stillstand vor dem Klimagipfel in Cancun am Jahresende überwinden.

Israel may not ask for American 'green light' to attack Iran

By Natasha Mozgovaya

Israel might attack Iranian nuclear sites within a year, if Iran stays the current course and the U.S. administration doesn't succeed in persuading Israel's leadership that U.S. President Barack Obama is ready to stop Iran by force if necessary.

More than 50 Percent Chance Israel Would Strike Iran in 2011

Goldberg writes that an Israeli attack on Iran's nuclear program could "stand a good chance of changing the Middle East forever; of sparking lethal reprisals, and even a full-blown regional war that could lead to the deaths of thousands of Israelis and Iranians, and possibly Arabs and Americans as well.

A Neocon Preps US for War with Iran

Goldberg and the Israelis want us to buy into a syllogism without a valid major premise. Their argument presupposes that Iran has made the decision to develop nuclear weapons and is hard at work on such a program, which is what they want Americans to believe whether there's evidence or not.
