US, Europe Step Up Pressure As Ukrainian Crisis Intensifies
By Peter Symonds

http://www.countercurrents.org/symonds090314.htm

Tensions in Ukraine continued to mount as Russia denounced the threat of US and European Union (EU) sanctions against Russian and pro-Russian Ukrainian officials


Ukraine: United States Strives For World Domination
By William Blum

http://www.countercurrents.org/blum090314.htm

When it gets complicated and confusing, when you’re overwhelmed with too much information, changing daily; too many explanations, some contradictory … try putting it into some kind of context by stepping back and looking at the larger, long-term picture


Obama Comes Out Against Crimea Self-Determination
By Paul Craig Roberts

http://www.countercurrents.org/roberts090314.htm

The White House Fool has repeatedly declared erroneously and foolishly that it is “against international law” for Crimea to exercise self-determination. Self-determination, as used by Washington, is a propaganda term that serves Washington’s empire but is not permissible for real people to exercise. In other words, the elected government in Crimea pushed by the people in Crimea to give them a vote on their future is “undemocratic” and “illegitimate,” but a non-elected government in Kiev imposed by Washington is the voice of self-determination and legitimacy


A Nation Is Not A Person: Now Let's Talk About Ukraine
By John Spritzler

http://www.countercurrents.org/spritzler090314.htm

The current conflict in Ukraine is about whether the American ruling class or the Russian ruling class is going to dominate and exploit ordinary people in Ukraine and posess raw materials and militarily strategic locations there; it's about how they will divvy up domination over Ukrainians if the Russian ruling class gets Crimea and the rest goes to the American ruling class. The conflict is over which Ukrainian billionaires will get the lion's share


Israel: A significant Shift In U.S. Public Opinion…? And What If The Answer Is “Yes”?
By Alan Hart

http://www.countercurrents.org/hart090314.htm

A recent public opinion poll asked Americans which of two options they would favour if a two-state solution to the Israel/Palestine conflict was no longer on the table. Only 24 percent supported the continuation of things as they are. According to the poll, 65 percent of those asked for their opinion preferred the one state option. What explains this?


The Face Of Falsehood
By William A. Cook

http://www.countercurrents.org/cook090314.htm

Today it is Netanyahu declaring his love for peace when he speaks for a nation led by Zionist ideology that has never sought peace as that word is known to the entire world and thus masks truth in obfuscation, for “peace” to the Zionist has been and continues to be “greater Israel” achieved by power not by peace as we know it


No Place For Nationalism In A World Without Borders
By Janet Surman

http://www.countercurrents.org/surman090314.htm

The frontierless world begins with frontierless minds. One mind at a time, the challenge is to dismantle the barriers which deafen, blindfold, shackle and dehumanise us. A mind without barriers can step over any line, has endless possibilities, unlimited potential, can acknowledge and appreciate the diversity and congruent value of humankind. The frontierless mind can value the vision in which all have their own, inalienable home


Marxism And Emerging Paradigms Of Minority Rights
By Dr. M. Mohibul Haque

http://www.countercurrents.org/haque090314.htm

It is imperative upon the Marxist ideologue today to attempt at exploring and finding space for minority rights within Marxist paradigm in the changing scenario. It is also important to understand the changing face of politics in India and at international level and to find space for minority rights in Marxism. However, it is necessary to mention here that the purpose of the article is not to advance a Marxist theory of minority rights rather it is to emphasize the need for such a theory

By Joe.M.S.

http://www.countercurrents.org/joems090514.htm

The recent article of Arundhati Roy in Caravan,raises many important questions as regards the contributions of Gandhi and Ambedkar. She does it brilliantly and courageously. It also takes up the question of ecology and progress


“Chopping Off Limbs” To Crush Opposition In Bangladesh
By Taj Hashmi

http://www.countercurrents.org/hashmi090314.htm

Sheikh Selim, an influential and powerful Awami League leader, at a public rally in Dhaka recently threatened to cut-off limbs of those who would create anarchy in the name of anti-government movements. One wonders, a) if “cutting limbs” is an antidote to anarchy, or the very idea gives fillip to fascism and anarchy and b) if mass movements can ever be crushed by brutal force!

This is a truly sad commentary:

Polio Continues To Be A Major Threat For Millions Of Children
By Brian McAfee
http://www.countercurrents.org/mcafee090314.htm

While great strides have been taken in ridding the world of polio there are four countries where the disease continues to endanger the lives of children. The countries where the World Health Organization(WHO) and UNICEF have confirmed the existence of and are now immunizing children from polio are Pakistan, Afghanistan, Nigeria and Syria

Matha Amrithananda Mayi’s ex-aide turns whistleblower. But Kerala’s mainstream media refuses to cover the damning revelations

Terrorist Attack On Indian Sufi Cleric
By Ghulam Rasool Dehlvi

http://www.countercurrents.org/dehlvi090314.htm

One of the most acclaimed Sunni Islamic scholars of modern India, Maulana Usaidul Haq Qadri Badayuni, was shot dead early this month while on a visit to Sufi shrines in Iraq. His killing is no isolated event, for wanton killings of Sufi-minded, spiritually-inclined Islamic scholars at the hands of Salafists, Wahhabis and other extremist ‘Islamist' goons continue unabated


Art, Pussy Riot And Social And Political Change
By Milan Djurasovic

http://www.countercurrents.org/djurasovic090314.htm

The recent artwork of Pussy Riot provides us with a suitable example. One of the reasons (it must be emphasized that it is definitely not the only, and not the most important reason) why Pussy Riot’s artwork failed to attract any wider support in Russia, and the reason why it has generated just as much – if not more – animosity, despite the massive media coverage, is because of its attempt to address a sensitive political issue with a vague message and obvious vulgarity


Barack Obama: A Pacifist Turned Hawk
By Kourosh Ziabari

http://www.countercurrents.org/ziabari090314.htm

By resorting to a derogatory literature and threatening the Iranian people again and again, Barack Obama undermined his own position as a pacifist politician and demonstrated that he is another hawk whose decisions in invading Libya, waging a lethal, destructive proxy war in Syria, continued drone attacks on Pakistan, Afghanistan, Somalia and Yemen and eventually his thuggish attitude toward Iran leave no doubts that he doesn’t deserve to be called a pacifist
