No indictment for Wilson an Indictment for the American justice system


Fierce protests erupt in Ferguson over the grand jury’s decision not to indict the white police officer who shot and killed the unarmed black teenager Michael Brown. It has become apparent that it is a serious crime to be a black male in America. Scenes in Ferguson reflect a war zone with buildings set on fire and cars ablaze.And more cities joined in solidarity with the people of Ferguson.

Reporters allege that the prosecutor colluded with the defense

US strategy in Ukraine

No love lost between Obama and Putin
It’s a year since the Maidan protests began in Ukraine, and a civil war has ensued with the East since then. What began as a civilian protest that overthrew the then president Yanukovic, eventually degenerated into a fierce civil war that has claimed more than 5000 civilian lives and continues unabated despite a truce signed in August.
Can there be a war in this world without a US hand? To many the questions is not worth an answer, the US interests are everywhere. The Maidan protests were fueled by the millions of dollars from White House. The question to ask is whether the Americans are there for all the good reasons, benign hegemony as they would like all of us to believe. What is the underlying motive of the US administration in Ukraine. It would be naive to assume that the Obama administration is in Ukraine to advance good governance, democracy or Ukraine’s sovereignty. Ukraine gives the US an important leverage in its geo-politics

Who will defend Gaza from Israeli offensive

The shelling rages on and most victims are women and children. For nearly four weeks, Israel has been shelling Gaza indiscriminately, destroying everything in its wake. The Israeli policy is to create chaos in Gaza and justify its blockade of Gaza. To Israel HAMAS is not the enemy, the enemy is the Palestinian people. Their mission is to kill as many as possible regardless of whether they are children or women as long as they are Palestinians. From the biblical times the modus operandi of the Israel army has not

US bullies Europe over Ukraine

The alliance between the United States and the European Union is overly one sided in favor of the US. The US virtually dictates the pace of relations with the EU. The Ukrainian crisis has highlighted the extent to which the US controls Europe. The United States has called for stiffer sanctions against Russia irregardless of the dire economic consequences on Europe. While certain countries in the EU like Germany are reluctant for such sanctions because of the negative effects on their economies, it appears the US will bully its way through. Today the world awaits the outcome of the meeting between the US president, Barack Obama and his German counterpart, Chancellor Angel Merkel. However many analysts are skeptical that Merkel will be able to resist US pressure to to tighten the nook on Russia. Or is it merely the Governor Merkel going to report to the boss.

Since the end of the world war certain countries such as Japan, Germany (formerly West Germany) have operated as virtual colonies of the United States whose policies must first be vetted

Mourinho put to his place

Final score; Chelsea 1:3 Atletico Madrid
Arda Turan ccelebrates his goal against Chelsea
After 'parking two buses' against Liverpool at the weekend, Chelsea were unable to repeat the same feat today as Atletico Madrid tore through their defense like a hot knife through margarine. An out of sorts Chelsea was completely outclassed by a well marshaled away team. This was a battle of compact styles and the more fancied Mourinho was undoubtedly outwitted by his less experienced counterpart, Simeone. After this defeat, Chelsea are likely to finish the season without any silverware while Simeone will dream for a double.
