Global
The global crisis is a crisis of capitalism
It is time for the workers and the poor in the Philippines to prepare for the worse the moment its government keeps on repeating the mantra that the economic fundamentals remain good and thus there is little to worry about effects of the global recessionary trend. The world found itself in the present mess precisely because of such blind faith in neoliberal fundamentalism.
The shallow basis for such declarations from the government is supposedly the fact that most of Philippine exports are being sent to China rather than the US. But China is just a transit point or a gigantic department in the assembly line that spans the globe. Thus exports to China will simply be assembled there and then ultimately sent to the US, Japan or Europe as finished products. Such is the international division of labor under the era of globalization.

"The CB is throwing money in the market without taking a specific concern with the change in the economic model, with public investment."

Religious Tolerance Forum Hosted By the King of Saudi Arabia
Saudi Arabia hosted a summit at the U.N. in New York on religious tolerance. The summit was held on Wednesday and Thursday November 12 and 13, 2008 for the purpose of promoting tolerance among the world's major religions. But the underlining purpose of the summit shows something different.
Saudi Arabia initiated inter-religious meeting at the United Nations this week. King Abdullah called his initiative a “Culture of Peace Summit,” to promote tolerance among the world’s major religions. Participants who gathered in New York on Wednesday and Thursday called for promoting mutual understanding and tolerance, through dialogue. Among those who attended are leaders from Pakistan, Lebanon, Jordan, Kuwait, Egypt, Britain, Spain and the Philippines, said Enrique Yeves, spokesman for U.N. General Assembly president Miguel D’Escoto Brockmann.

Why Eating GM Food Could Lower Your Fertility
by Sean Poulter
Genetically modified corn has been linked to a threat to fertility in an
official study that could deliver a hammer blow to controversial 'Frankenstein
Food'.
Most of the research on GM crop safety has been conducted by
biotech companies, such as Monsanto, rather than outside independent
laboratories. A long-term feeding trial commissioned by the Austrian
government found mice fed on GM corn or maize had fewer offspring and lower
birth rates.
The Death of Capitalism
The current crisis in capitalism may not be resolvable by traditional methods and lead to the death of capitalism
About 150 years ago, a very brilliant man named Karl Marx, developed an analysis of capitalism that stated that it was doomed to failure like the preceding economic systems of slavery and feudalism. Also, he analyzed history as a continuing class struggle between the haves and have-nots. His ideas so frightened the capitalist class that today the very name of Karl Marx inspires fear in a majority of working class people around the world due to the unrelenting corporate propaganda against his ideas and the man himself.
FIGHT AND STOP THE WORLD WAR MCCAIN, TAX-EVADER FOX!
Like the Nazis, McCain and Palin are out to spread and unleash the world war into the Middle East for Big Oil, Super Profit and Super Greed. It’s time to expose the tax evasion of Fox News rabidly supporting the World War McCain. Time for a Fox Cut!
McCain and Palin are Bush’s and Cheney’s proxies to stretch the war in the Middle East for Big Oil and Super Profit including Rockefeller’s Exxon Mobil which racked up a record $16 billion in quarterly profits. First, Iraq, which Greenspan admitted was a war for oil. And then, bomb, bomb, bomb Iran. And so, more oil for Exxon Mobil, Halliburton and other contributors to the Republican war chest.
