The collapsing US military & economic empire is making Washington & NATO even more dangerous. US could not beat the Taliban but thinks it can take on China-Russia-Iran...a sign of psychopathology for sure. We must all do more to help stop this western corporate arrogance that puts the future generations lives in despair. @BruceKGagnon

COVERAGE OF JEJU PEACE ISLAND RALLY




Some photos and video from the big rally in Gangjeong village yesterday. More than 1,000 people came from around the island and from the mainland to stand with the villagers. The police turned out in huge numbers to hassle the people and attempted to take the long sticks on which the big puppets were carried. The police had demanded that the festival not be allowed to address the villagers opposition to the Navy base.

The arrogance of the Navy and the South Korean government is so extreme that they think they have the right to control what the people think and say. It is quite evident that the South Korean right-wing government does not understand the meaning of the words freedom and democracy.
