“What do I want you to know about HAARP? Imagine that it is 1943 and you know about the Manhattan project, which created the atomic bomb -- what do you do? HAARP will make atomic bombs obsolete. It will affect you. It is not a matter of if, only how much. HAARP is a hit man with a contract on you.”
Jerry E. Smith, author of Haarp: The Ultimate Weapon of the Conspiracy (The Mind-Control Conspiracy Series)

It’s difficult to flush out the pro-Israeli warmongers in the Bush-Cheney Administration, like Richard Perle and Paul "Dr. Strangelove" Wolfowitz. However, columnist Zev Chafets’unfair attack on Professor Edward Said, in the NY Daily News (02/19/03), presented such an opportunity. Chafets is a Zionist, a dual citizen, who had lived in Israel for over 33 years, and even shilled for that old terrorist, Menachem Begin. It is time for the "Likudniks," who have been beating the drums for war with Iraq, while serving in high positions in the Bush-Cheney Gang, to come clean with the American people.

Many point to oil as the basic rationale for the current crisis in the Middle East, but Immanuel Wallerstein argues that this "can be at most a collateral benefit." A longer-term perspective may begin by looking at the belief of key actors' in the Bush administration that the hegemony of the United States has declined since the Vietnam War. World systems analyst Wallerstein examines what's behind the United States's drive for war against Iraq.

The victories of Lula da Silva in Brazil and Lucio Gutiérrez in Ecuador, and Hugo Chávez's resistance to destabilisation in Venezuela have changed the possible future of the left throughout Latin America.

Historian Gabriel Kolko, author of Another Century of War and other works, analyzes the response of key members of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization to the United States drive to war against Iraq. Kolko notes that "When the 15 nations in European Union met on February 17 their statement on Iraq was far closer to the German-French position than the American, reflecting the antiwar nations' economic clout as well as the response of some prowar political leaders to the massive antiwar demonstrations that took place the preceding weekend in Italy, Spain, Britain and the rest of Europe."
