Countries define food as "any item that is to be processed, partially processed, or unprocessed for consumption."

The I-HATE-MY-FATHER Generation

Walking the tight rope of moral uprightness is a huge challenge these days.

(WASHINGTON D.C.) - There is a generation in Africa and beyond that is utterly confused. Of course the word “confused” has a power to evoke some really strong feelings or reactions. But the confusion here is not of this generation’s own making - at least according to the way they look at things.

It is their fathers’ fault that they are confused, or so they say and that’s the sad part about the so-called fatherless generation.

Palestinians Join the Arab Spring and Reach for UN Membership

Apparently, the US is alone among nations willing to join Israel in its plot–ascribed, as usual, to “security concerns”–to keep the Palestinians from UN membership.

(CHICAGO) - Five years before the 2011 Arab Spring, Hamas won a decisive victory in the January 25, 2006, Palestinian parliamentary elections.

(CINCINNATI ) - An unclassified version of the software used by the FBI has allowed Veterans Today to track the IP addresses of a group of, what appeared to be, hate mongers and racists whose rhetoric borders on terrorist extremism. What we found was astounding.

Failed Favoritism Toward Israel

There will be disastrous consequences for U.S.-Saudi relations if the United States vetoes U.N. recognition of a Palestinian state.

(RIYADH, Saudi Arabia) - President Obama gave a rousing call to action in his controversial speech last month, admonishing Arab governments to embrace democracy and provide freedom to their populations.
