Presidents’ Day is an American holiday celebrated on the third
Monday in February. Originally established in 1879 in recognition of President
George Washington, it is still officially called “Washington’s Birthday” by the
federal government.

(WMR)—The Obama administration, like its predecessor, is doing
everything possible to maintain the secrecy of the 28 pages of the 800-page
congressional report on the intelligence failures surrounding the 9/11 attack.
The report, titled, “Joint Inquiry Into Intelligence Community Activities Before
and After the Terrorist Attacks of September 11, 2001,” detailed the results of
a congressional investigation of the events surrounding 9/11. But entirely
redacted from the report are 28 pages dealing with specific sources of foreign
support for the alleged 9/11 hijackers, fifteen of whom were Saudi
nationals.
In America, the Gestapo has replaced the rule of
law
By Paul Craig Roberts
RT is the best English language news source available to Americans.
On January 29, RT published a photo of five presidential appointees lying
through their teeth to Congress.

A week before the opening of the Olympics, 759 Pennsylvanians paid
$25 each to participate in a sport that would never be a part of any
international competition.

It’s Wednesday. For some reason, I think of Wednesday’s child, full
of woe. And I’ve just glanced up and out to see large snowflakes dancing between
the two towers of my complex, swirling indecision, whether to rest or continue
performing.
Tuesday
How safe is our information with billionaire
corporatists & dollar-hungry opportunistic
individuals?
By Sibel Edmonds
Please raise your hand if you are one of many concerned citizens
when it comes to our government collecting and keeping your data without a
warrant or any justification. Do you see my hand? I know I am a shorty, but it
is up there; my hand. I assure you. In fact it has been there for a long
time.
By Paul Craig Roberts
In a number of my articles I have explained that the Soviet Union
served as a constraint on US power. The Soviet collapse unleashed the
neoconservative drive for US world hegemony. Russia under Putin, China, and Iran
are the only constraints on the neoconservative agenda.
By Ellen Brown, J.D.
The credit card business is now the banking industry’s biggest cash
cow, and it’s largely due to lucrative hidden fees.
By Frank Scott
The problem of racism is primarily the treatment of darker skinned
people by the lighter skinned; that treatment is always murderously damaging to
humanity itself and not only the particular people being savaged by those who
thought themselves, somehow, more human than others. But reaction to
mistreatment on racial grounds, especially without consideration of the economic
roots of such inhumanity, may be as dangerous to the survival of the race.
By Kéllia Ramares-Watson
“Life Without Money” is a compilation of essays on theories and
practices of non-monetary economics, which some people, including Anitra Nelson,
call non-market socialism. It is a book intended primarily for academics who
might want to consider teaching from this book, and those whom Nelson calls
“thinking activists,” i.e., people who are primarily activists, but who are also
interested in economic theory. Each chapter has many end notes and several gray
boxes that mark out special points a teacher might wish to bring out during a
lecture.

If you remember Bosnia from the 1990s, you may remember the
much-publicized ethnic violence, massacres and rapes, and something savagely
atavistic, dismembering a unified country once called Yugoslavia. It is now back
on a pre-WW I map, the disunified “Balkans,” a mosaic of statelets reconstituted
along ethno-nationalist lines: Croatia, Slovenia, Serbia, Montenegro,
Macedonia—and the British-UN protectorate of Bosnia-Herzegovina (BiH) and
Republika Srpska (Serb Republic), a collage of Croat, Serb, and Muslim
populations, each inhabiting its own ethnic space.
By Paul Craig Roberts
A number of confirmations have come in from readers that Washington
is fueling the violent protests in Ukraine with our taxpayer dollars. Washington
has no money for food stamps or to prevent home foreclosures, but it has plenty
of money with which to subvert Ukraine.
By Linda S. Heard
Cairo’s decision to cement close economic, diplomatic and military
ties with Moscow was not one that the interim government took lightly. Egypt was
pushed to forge new alliances by its longtime ally—the US, which chose to side
with the Muslim Brotherhood, following president Mohammad Mursi’s ousting on
July 3, 2013, rather than accept the majority’s will.
By Martha Rosenberg
Until 2010 when the Physician Payments Sunshine Act, which requires
disclosure of Pharma payments, passed, the only thing better than working for
Pharma was being a doctor wined and dined by Pharma.
By John W. Whitehead
Relationships are fragile things, none more so than the
relationship between a citizen and his government. Unfortunately for the
American people, the contract entered into more than 200 years ago has been
reduced to little more than a marriage of convenience and fiscal duty, marked by
distrust, lying, infidelity, hostility, disillusion, paranoia and domestic abuse
on the part of the government officials entrusted with ensuring the citizenry’s
safety and happiness.
Thursday
By Bev Conover
In cities and towns across the US, red light cameras are being
installed for the ostensible purpose of preventing T-bone collisions at
intersections, not to mention raking in big bucks from motorists running red
traffic lights.
By Eric Walberg
A new identity and a precious Canadian passport for a fugitive
Mossad agent. A honeypot security officer working for Canadian immigration
romancing an Iranian-Canadian businessman, and letting the cat out of the bag.
Who needs John le Carre?

Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu opened his weekly Cabinet
meeting Sunday with more words of warning to the West about Iran.
By Dave Alpert
Michael Dunn, the white man who murdered Jordan Davis, a
17-year-old African-American, while arguing over the loudness of the music being
played, was found guilty on four of the five counts with which he was
charged.
By Paul Craig Roberts
Economic theory teaches that free price and profit movements ensure
that capitalism produces the greatest welfare for the greatest number. Losses
indicate economic activities where costs exceed the value of production, thus
investment in these activities is curtailed. Profits indicate economic
activities where the value of output exceeds its cost, thus investment
increases. Prices indicate the relative scarcity and value of inputs and
outputs, thus serving to organize production most efficiently.
Friday
By Harvey Wasserman
So the “all the above” energy strategy now deems we dump another
$6.5 billion in bogus loan guarantees down the atomic drain. Energy Secretary
Ernest Moniz has announced finalization of hotly contested taxpayer handouts for
the two Vogtle reactors being built in Georgia. Another $1.8 billion waits to be
pulled out of your pocket and poured down the radioactive sinkhole.
American sheeple stick heads in the sand; pretend to
be ostriches
By Paul Craig Roberts
American taxpayers have built an entire city in Virginia so that
the Pentagon can practice occupying American cities and putting down protests by
US citizens.
By Wayne Madsen
The Central Intelligence Agency appears to be caught in a time
warp. At the roots of the CIA’s and George Soros’s “resistance” movement in
Ukraine lie Ukrainian fascists and pro-Nazis, the ideological forbears of the
current Ukrainian right-wing fascist party Svoboda and other radical right and
anti-Russian groups largely based in western Ukraine.
By Ramzy Baroud
On Friday, Feb. 14, 92 prisoners escaped from their prison in the
Libyan town of Zliten. Nineteen of them were eventually recaptured, two of whom
were wounded in clashes with the guards. It was just another daily episode
highlighting the utter chaos which has engulfed Libya since the overthrow of
Muammar Ghaddafi in 2011.
By Margaret Kimberley
Michael Dunn may be an easily identifiable outlier, but America
clearly has a serious gun fixation and it results in the deaths of 11,000 people
every year. Michael Dunn is the Jacksonville, Florida, man who shot Jordan Davis
to death in the so-called “loud music” case. It should have been called the
“white person shoots black person just because” case.
