Zero-Sum Games And The 2012 Election

When the Republicans lose, it means that the Democrats win because there is no other option. The problem is, this is not the case with this situation.

Dear US Attorney Fitzgerald: Enough is enough

Hatem Abudayyeh’s only crime has been his unwavering commitment to justice in Palestine and Arab community organizing in Chicago.

Lessons from Scarface: How to stop a psychopath

Remember the closing scene in Scarface? After killing his best friend, Tony Montana (Al Pacino) retreats back to his gratuitously gaudy mansion and desperately shoves his face into a mountain of cocaine. He watches in utter disbelief while his little sister is killed before his eyes by one of his enemy’s armed henchmen. And while Montana clearly knows that his own death is imminent – most of his friends have either defected or been killed, and the ones that remain will only be able to protect him for so long – Montana still refuses to accept his mortality. Picking up his fully-equipped M16 assault rifle, Montana boldly confronts dozens of Latin American assassins. Frenzied, stoned, and totally delusional, Tony Montana turns his foyer into a pool of blood, until he is finally killed by a single shotgun shot to the back.

Whose “Justice” System?

On February 14th, the US House of Representatives approved a 10-month extension of three unequivocally racist provisions of the Patriot Act, which were initially passed after 9/11/2001 in an attempt to help the US government better monitor “terrorists.” In a nutshell, the provisions allow the FBI to confiscate any “tangible” thing considered relevant to a terrorism investigation; conduct “roving wiretaps” on multiple telephones in the process of a terrorism investigation; and investigate, with few limitations, non-American “lone wolf” terror suspects that are not connected to any recognized “terror” organizations. For his part, Obama supported the provisions’ renewal, although he prefers that they be extended until 2013, not just until December 2011. The Senate is set to vote on the provisions before their February 28th expiration date.

Egypt: Hope We Can All Believe In

More photoshopped Facebook profile images for all our KABOBfans to download, use and pass along. This time, inspired by President Barack Obama’s famous “hope” poster… minus the bullshit.

The DREAM Act Misses the Point

Immigration, legal or illegal, has always been a contentious topic within the American political discourse. Given the United States historic dependence on immigration for economic reasons, it’s only natural that this issue has captivated the attention of every section of the American public. The DREAM Act currently being debated, once again, seeks to provide some form of relief in the greater fight to alleviate the situation of over 12 million people residing in the United States without any form of legal residency. While the effort will undoubtedly be a step in the right direction, it ultimately fails to address a greater and far more pervasive problem.

Hizb-i-Shay Defeats Great Satan

Congrats to the Tea Party for defeating the great imperialist despot, Barry Obamaski, in the midterm elections. Thank you for saving this country from the clutches of doom.

A divided Congress is historically unprecedented and your great benefactors shall be very pleased, especially if they get more tax breaks out of it.

3 minute recap: Obama’s UN speech

Barack Obama, the US president, has urged countries in the United Nations to get behind Middle East peace efforts in an address at the UN General Assembly.

But Ali Hasan Abunimah, a Palestinian-American journalist and co-founder of Electronic Intifada, an independent web site about the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict, said Obama’s speech did not represent anything new.

“That bodes very ill for the peace process that he’s so invested in,” Abunimah told Al Jazeera’s Shihab Rattansi, speaking from the US state of Indiana.

“Let’s judge him not by what he says, but what he does.”

If You Build it, They Will Come

By Osama bin Laden

It’s very, very important that the Ground Zero Mosque moves forward quickly. It’s our monument to Jihad. You see, it is the third phase of our four phase Al-Qaeda strategy plan. Without this essential edifice, we will not be able to fulfill our “Jihad in America 2010″ pledge to our donors. While we’re only behind a few years at best, we’d like to have this accomplishment in the bag by year’s end for our 2010 annual report.

Back in 1995, we developed an ambitious five year plan. We were in Sudan, and feeling like we were going to get kicked out any minute. Boy were we right.

End of War in Iraq or Rebranding of Occupation? Neither.

By Raed Jarrar

Last week, the last U.S. “combat convoy” left Iraq. By the end of this month, the remaining “combat forces” will leave the country, putting the Obama administration on track to reduce the U.S. troop level to 50,000 by August 31.

The U.S. media coverage of this month’s withdrawal has been very confusing and inaccurate. It ranges from mainstream media outlets claiming that this is the end of the Iraq war, to leftist media accusing the Obama administration of pulling a trick to re-brand the occupation. This withdrawal deadline is neither. read
