2007-11-05 21:07 The Iraq war has become a disaster that we have chosen to forget
By Madeleine Bunting (THE GUARDIAN, 05/11/07): "You think you are innocent, but you're not," said the British Muslim suicide bomber in the Channel 4 television drama Britz last week. As the compelling actor Manjinder Virk recited her suicide statement to camera, she went on: thousands of women and children are dying every day in Iraq and Afghanistan, and yet the governments responsible have been returned to power.Her assertion sticks in the mind because it goes straight to the heart of how we ch …

2007-10-26 17:42 The Shock Doctrine, The Rise of Disaster Capitalism [Naomi Klein]
Shokkidoktriini, tuhokapitalismin nousu. Lisätietoa, informaatio on parasta vastalääkettä. http://www.naomiklein.org/shock-doctrine "In one of his most influential essays, Milton Friedman articulated contemporary capitalism's core tactical nostrum, what I have come to understand as "the shock doctrine". He observed that "only a crisis - actual or perceived - produces real change". When that crisis occurs, the actions taken depend on the ideas that are lying around. Some people stockpile canned g …

The Independent: Why is it that millions of ordinary Americans vote for conservative policies that seem inimical to their lives Why are the politicians who support healthcare reforms to give access to a doctor for the 47 million Americans without insurance branded as closet socialists or worse Why, in this upside-down world do so many blue-collar Americans vote Republican, and family farmers support a President whose Wall Street friends would gladly push them off the land Why do people shrug and …

2007-10-15 22:52 The Case Against Bobby Jindal
In less than a week, Louisianans will vote on who is best qualified to lead our State for the next four years. We face a monumental decision. This election does not simply represent a change in leadership; it also marks the first time Louisianans have had to make a decision about their state's leadership since the devastation of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. In her new book The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism, author Naomi Klein reveals a fascinating relationship between the natur …

2007-10-15 17:47 I Had No Choice
Original Essay for Powell's Books "During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act." George Orwell I never intended to be a revolutionary. In March 2003 when the U.S-led invasion of Iraq was launched I was in the midst of another full mountaineering season in Alaska. However, unlike earlier seasons, I was unable to devote myself wholeheartedly to my time in the mountains, which I consider my sanctuary. I retained my links with the less divine through radio and pho …

2007-10-12 20:14 The IMF, shock therapy and Apartheid
Comment is premature, perhaps, because unlike Johann Hari, I haven't read Naomi Klien's "The Shock Doctrine" yet so I can't tell whether this following paragraph from his review is an accurate reflection of what she has written or if it is his elaboration of a thesis he is in fundamental agreement with. Regardless of which, the analysis of the 'shock doctrine' in relation to post-Apartheid South Africa was, well, pretty shocking: "As the people of South Africa were fighting the last battles agai …

2007-10-11 16:33 Right-Wing 'Journalists' Trash Naomi Klein's "The Shock Doctrine"
With a few notable exceptions, Canadian media commentators and book reviewers trashed Naomi Klein and her new book, The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism ...The...brotherhood that populates Canadian newsrooms was up in arms over Klein's treatment of their grand ayatollah, Milton Friedman. Klein claims rightly that Friedman is responsible for advising capitalists to profit from disasters and human misery. read more

You know how it is. Every time you write a rhyme, people think it's a crime to tell them what's on your mind. Naomi Klein is such a thought-criminal, if Will Hutton's allergic gyrations are any guide. That sort of liberal always hates Klein, for being more than the left-flank of neoliberalism (Hutton has almost completely lost his critical edge, and is these days a Eustonian). Hitchens' sort of illiberal hates her too: for recommending that Iraq's economy be transformed into a giant windfarm col …

2007-10-10 21:06 Economic Goals Of The Iraq War: Disaster Capitalism
(Cross posted from BFD Blog!) It has all become exceedingly clear for us here at BFD Blog! why the Bushliburton administration started the war in Iraq, it was so that their constituent business backers could exploit the disasters of our times, both those caused by natural acts in the environment, and those caused by man. Blogging for the Huffington Post, John Cusak (yes, that John Cusak ) lays it all out in great clarity in his posting titled " The Real Blackwater Scandal: Build A Frontier, You …

I was going to write a review of The Shock Doctrine, but it needs a bit more time. Anyway, it's a Friday night, so I thought you'd like a bit of political decrepitude. The BBC's series The Thick of It is obviously facing a few difficulties now that Chris Langham has gone and had himself done for looking at child pornography on the internet (for 'research' purposes). It doesn't really have any politics (or it does, but they're centrist), but it has been co-written by people in the know and does f …

That suggestion was taken to heart by the Bush administration. I gotta buy this book.

It's not like, she insisted to a reporter, it was during Vietnam! Reality check for the dumb and stupid, it wasn't all that easy during Vietnam. Long before Canada's prime minister Pierre Trudeau's 1969 decision to legally welcome war resisters (as opposed to merely looking the other way), they had been stream …
