Haitian Earthquake: Made In The USA
By Ted Rall
http://www.counterc urrents.org/ rall160110. htmEarthquakes are random events. How many people they kill is predetermined. In Haiti this week, don't blame tectonic plates. Ninety-nine percent of the death toll is attributable to poverty. So the question is relevant. How'd Haiti become so poor?

Why Is The American Press SilentOn The Israeli Role In NW Flight 253?By Patrick Martin http://www.counterc urrents.org/ martin160110. htmThe Israeli connection has been widely reported in the Israeli and European press. In addition to Ha'aretz, the Jerusalem Post noted the role of ICTS in Amsterdam in an article December 27, and Israeli television interviewed a company director, who confirmed that Abdulmutallab had been given a security screening. But there has been nothing in the main American media outlets—nothing in the

Buying Ourselves To Death
By Case Wagenvoord
http://www.counterc urrents.org/ wagenvoord160110 .htmThe left is going to have to lose its ideological fragmentation if it wishes to be any sort of a counterforce to the Right. Right now it is too fragmented as individuals occupy their private ideological castles and refuse to leave them. You can neither organize nor fund-raise from a computer. We will only cure this fragmentation if we are willing to leave our castles and engage in a political process that has been described as a process of compromise and conciliation between conflicting groups in a pluralistic society
The March Of Refugees
By Srestha Banerjee
http://www.counterc urrents.org/ banerjee160110. htmAs the climate conference in
Copenhagen becomes a part of "conventional" history, the much debatable yet extremely urgent issue continues to remain the centerpiece of global policy discussions. The issue does no more solely have the emblem of the cute polar bear, looking desolate and desperate in its endangered habitat, but the emblem has become human faces: the "climate refugees", standing in the barren lands of our "enriched civilization"
In Defense Of Chavez' Call For A
Fifth Socialist International
By Ann Robertson & Bill Leumer
http://www.counterc urrents.org/ leumer160110. htmCritics who have planted themselves firmly on the sidelines, have been lobbing all kinds of disapproving missives at
President Hugo Chavez' call for a new international, urging others who have been carried away with enthusiastic support to join them on the sidelines. The laundry list of complaints is extensive: Chavez is the head of a bourgeois government; Chavez only pursues reformism, not genuine revolution; he made his call in the presence of an audience that included avowed supporters of capitalism; and so on
