Farmers had sought Court protection under the Declaratory Judgment Act that should they become the innocent victims of contamination by Monsanto's patented gene-splice technology they could not perversely be sued for patent infringement.

(WASHINGTON, DC) - The U.S. Supreme Court today issued a decision in the landmark federal lawsuit, Organic Seed Growers and Trade Association et al v. Monsanto.

Sharon and a Nobel Prize for Nonsense

One interesting thing very few people know about Sharon is that he was opposed to Israel developing and possessing nuclear weapons.

(LONDON) - Until recently I thought Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu had no rivals in the business of talking propaganda nonsense (Israel’s Jews in danger of annihilation etcetera, etcetera, etcetera). But if there was a Nobel Prize for talking nonsense it does now seem that there would be a number of contenders.

At the top of my list of them would be British Prime Minister David Cameron. In paying tribute to Sharon he praised him for his “brave and controversial decisions in pursuit of peace.”

Faith, Civil Rights, Labor Leaders Speak out Against Cuts to Child Tax Credit

Diverse Coalition Decries Senator’s Attempt to Hike Taxes on Working Class Families with Children

(WASHINGTON, DC) - The Senate is poised to vote to deny millions of working, taxpaying families the Child Tax Credit (CTC), an important tool that has allowed millions of working families to provide for their children.

The measure, proposed by Sen. Kelly Ayotte (R-NH), would affect up to four million Latino children, according to estimates. A broad coalition of advocates for children, faith and labor leaders, and anti-poverty experts has renounced the proposal as a cynical attempt to pit children against the unemployed.

A Pact With The Devil

The King of Israel is dead. Here’s to the demise of his appalling legacy.

(LONDON) - Those of you who are familiar with my thoughts and writings will know by now that I loathe invoking any religious edict to make my point. In this case the exception is justified.

You would have to be living in the deepest recesses of the Amazonian jungle or the farthest reaches of Outer Mongolia not to have heard of the death of ‘the devil’ that was Ariel Sharon. Forgive me if I don’t shed a tear nor have a decent word to say about the dead but on this occasion I will just refrain from dancing over his grave.

Ken says the powers that be, are cowardly little tyrants and minions who cannot handle truths about their little games.

(SALEM) - The Swedish and UK governments are filling out their roles as American policy lapdogs quite properly this weekend, helping to isolate one of the world's top activists for 9/11 truth and prevent his appearance on a popular new London based television program, Ken O'Keefe's Middle East Show.

Ariel Sharon: Buddha of Middle East or Butcher of Beirut?

Sharon, who was in a coma for eight years after suffering a stroke in January 2006 at the peak of his power, died on Saturday aged 85.

(TEHRAN) - Voltaire once said, "Men use thought only to justify their wrong-doings, and words only to conceal their thoughts." With former Israeli general and prime minister Ariel Sharon’s long-anticipated death, the Western media has gone to great lengths to paint him as the Buddha of the Middle East.

The whole world knows that he achieved his nirvana in Beirut in September 1982 at the Sabra and Shatila refugee camps when Lebanese mercenaries backed by Israeli forces slaughtered thousands of innocent Palestinian and Lebanese Muslims.

Palestine`s Quislings

A Hand in the Till Not on the Tiller.

(WASHINGTON, DC) - A picture is indeed sometimes worth a thousand words. A photo of Secretary of State John Kerry disembarking from his plane in Tel Aviv showed chief US negotiator Martin Indyk walking along at his side with a grin on his face as if he had just heard a new Palestinian joke in the plane on the way over.

It looked like Israel’s American legal team had arrived and just couldn’t wait for the first photo op with a glowering Benjamin Netanyahu.
