Exclusive from ACTindependent— FOUR-POINT EMERGENCY ENERGY STABILIZATION PLAN (EESP) 75% of the Oil Price is Hedge Fund Speculation— Oil has now reached the astronomical price of $145 per barrel, with gasoline over $5 per gallon in many parts of the United States. The basic economic survival of this country and of much of the world is now threatened. The current price levels are unsustainable, and are destroying vital sectors of the economy, while placing an intolerable and unsustainable burden on working families. It is evident that there are abundant world supplies of oil. Indeed, there is a glut of oil on the world market. Special Section THE TRUTH ABOUT OBAMA 7/5/08—PUMA Call to DNC Delegates Obama Signals Endless War in Iraq, Sellouts on FISA, NAFTA, and Campaign Finance Reform. 6/20/08—Obama is Fascism, Mr. Paul Craig Roberts! Recently the esteemed Paul Craig Roberts penned a rather atrocious display of political illiteracy and impotence when he came out supporting the candidacy of Barack Obama for President (Obama and the Fall Into Tyranny 6/16/08). After devoting half of the article to a decent analysis of Obama's obscene genuflections to the Israel and AIPAC, Roberts reverses his critique in midstream to devote the rest of the article to the promotion of Obama, who he feels represents an antidote to the Bush years and the Republicans. What is this all about? [more] Washington DC, June 6—Yesterday's extraordinary simultaneous ouster of the Secretary of the Air Force and the Air Force Chief of Staff, followed by the naming of Trilateral Commissioner and Carter administration veteran James Rodney Schlesinger to purge USAF generals and colonels, dramatically documents the fact that power in Washington DC is no longer in the hands of the Bush-Cheney-neocon clique, but has passed to the Brzezinski-Trilateral faction. [more] 5/31/08—Dean-Brazile Minority Coup Splits Democrats; Senator Clinton is the Real Democratic Party Washington DC, May 31—Today the Rules Committee of the Democratic National Committee has taken a giant step on the road to political suicide. Today's decision to cut in half the voting strength of the Florida and Michigan delegations effectively disenfranchises the voters of these two vital and indispensable states, and reduces them to second-class citizenship. Even the infamous three-fifths compromise embodied in the US Constitution of 1787 treated a slave better than the Democratic National Committee is treating the voters of Florida and Michigan. Without these two states, any Democratic ticket is doomed to defeat in the November election.[more] 5/20/08—Barack Obama: Ventriloquist's Dummy — Zbigniew Brzezinski: Ventriloquist We now have good evidence that Obama will flay the American people alive with his elitist economic policies. Obama has committed a major error by showing his hand. Will voters react in time to stop him? 3/21/08—Confirmed on MSNBC: Obama is Puppet of Zbigniew Brzezinski, Trilateral Revanchist Any lingering doubts about Obama's status as an abject puppet of Zbigniew Brzezinski and the Rockefeller Trilateral Commission ended this morning when the withered mummy of imperialism himself appeared on MSNBC's Morning Joe to campaign for Obama...

Barack Obama's call for National Infrastructure Reinvestment Bank (NIRB) does not signal the return of the Democratic Party to the values of FDR and a revival of the Constitutional prerogative to "promote the general welfare," but would rather provide more welfare for Wall Street, and worse. Obama's plan is nothing more than the direct means of instituting the Rohatyn-Rudman National Investment Corporation (NIC) plan called for in 2005, which in essence is a revival of Mussolini's methods of corporatist control of the state in a politically correct post modern fashion.

Tarpley If the American public were generally aware that the "foreign minister" of one of the most murderous terrorist organizations in the world, a man whose extradition on terrorism charges is sought by at least one UN Security Council permanent member, is living openly in Washington DC, they might be indignant. If Americans knew that this is the "foreign minister" of a terrorist group specializing in killing women and children, first in a hospital, then in a school, and later defenseless civilians in a theater, their indignation might grow into rage. If they knew that this envoy for terrorists is living in the comfortable Woodley Park neighborhood of Washington DC with a lifestyle most Americans could not afford, with an office, a secretary, a travel budget, and a public relations budget all paid for at the expense of the US taxpayers, with State Department checks signed by Condoleezza Rice, they might be furious. If they knew that this ambassador for terrorists had been set up in his current all-expenses-paid, taxpayer-funded lifestyle by a man who is the main image adviser and the main foreign policy adviser to Barack Obama, their view of the Illinois senator and his qualifications for the presidency might well undergo a radical change.

Tarpley (1/19/08) The New Hampshire Democratic primary was no exercise in grass roots retail politics, but rather a clash between two cynical covert operations run by contending factions of intelligence community professionals. On the one side was an attempt to replicate here in the United States on behalf of Obama the sort of "color revolution" or "CIA people power coup" which the National Endowment for Democracy and the Brzezinski intelligence faction have carried out in such countries as Serbia, Georgia, and Ukraine. On the other hand, an opposed intelligence faction was able to win the day by a more traditional type of Diebold voting machine pattern fraud in favor of Mrs. Clinton.... [more]
1/21/08—18-Point Draft Emergency Economic Recovery Program to Stop the Bush Depression (105K pdf) 1. Stop all foreclosures immediately for at least five years and for the duration of the depression by means of a compulsory federal law carrying criminal penalties. No foreclosures on homes, family farms, factories, public utilities, hospitals, transportation and other infrastructure. Outlaw adjustable rate mortgages. 10/23/07—Internet COINTELPRO Alert We welcome the October 2 statement issued by David Swanson entitled "Leading Americans Ask U.S. Military to Refuse Orders to Attack Iran" and signed by a group of well-known personalities, which will generate new action to stop this critical threat to civilization as we have known it. At the same time, we regret that this new statement neither adequately conveys the depth of the strategic crisis, as seen through the events of the last five weeks, nor indicates the necessary scale of political mobilization on the part of anti-war forces. Recent events, above all the case of the rogue B-52, establish beyond any doubt that the grave threat to humanity identified in the August 26 Kennebunkport Warning was and continues to be real. The massive evidence of this danger which existed at the end of August has become still more massive over the past five weeks, and we are glad that these signers have seen their way clear to launch this initiative.

Tarpley "The antiwar movement is in many regards divided and misinformed on the nature of the US military agenda. In the US, United for Peace and Justice tacitly supports US foreign policy. It fails to recognize the existence of an Iraqi resistance movement. Moreover, these same antiwar organizations, which are committed to World Peace tend to downplay the implications of the proposed US bombing of Iran.... 9/13/07—Duty, Honor, Country 2007: An Open Letter to the New Generation of Military Officers Serving and Protecting Our Nation "[S]hould some civilian order you to initiate a nuclear attack on Iran (for example), you are duty-bound to refuse that order. I might also suggest that you should consider whether the circumstances demand that you arrest whoever gave the order as a war criminal.... THE KENNEBUNKPORT WARNING Massive evidence* has come to our attention which shows that the backers, controllers, and allies of Vice President Dick Cheney are determined to orchestrate and manufacture a new 9/11 terror incident, and/or a new Gulf of Tonkin war provocation over the coming weeks and months. Such events would be used by the Bush administration as a pretext for launching an aggressive war against Iran, quite possibly with nuclear weapons, and for imposing a regime of martial law here in the United States. *Click to download document (68 pages, 316K) LIST OF SIGNATORIES AND SUPPORTERS(pdf) (Names will be added as they are received.

On July 4, 2007, over 300 delegates from diverse activist organizations and concerned citizens across America joined together at the Philadelphia Emergency Antiwar Convention to form a United Front, dedicated to resolving our national crises of endless war and presidential dictatorship. These organizations included: Allentown Armory Activists, Alliance for a Sustainable Future, Boston 9/11 Truth, Coalition for Voting Integrity, DCOI Youth Group, DC 9/11 Truth, Delaware Valley Veterans for America, Family Victims of 9/11, Granny Peace Brigade, Green Party Philadelphia, Green Party Vermont, Iraq Veterans Against the War, Los Angeles National Impeachment Center, Military Families Speak Out, Northeast 9/11 Truth, Peace Action - Delaware Valley, Philly 9/11 Truth, Restore the Republic, Student Scholars for 9/11 Truth, Troops Out Now Coalition, Vermont 9/11 Truth, Vermont Coalition for 9/11 Truth, We Are Change, World Can’t Wait Philadelphia, Washington Grove Institute, 911truthsquads.org. This is only the beginning; others are welcome to add their names and work toward our common goals. Write to info@actindependent.org.
At the end of the convention, the Philadelphia Platform was discussed, amended and adopted by unanimous acclaim. The following are abbreviated highlights of the five policy goals and five action points detailed in the Platform. See full text of document. FIVE POLICY GOALS We appeal to leftists, progressives, conservatives, libertarians, independents, and those entering or re-entering politics to transcend the artificial divisions that have diminished their impact. The antiwar, impeachment, anti-globalization, labor, civil rights, veterans, anti-tax, civil liberties, honest election, and 9/11 truth movements—along with civic and progressive religious groups and other issue groups—have been weakened too long by single issues and narrow focus. It is time for these movements to unite as a national coalition on a common platform for independent action. We call for a united front of all organizations and persons of good will based on the following: 1. Impeach, remove, and indict Bush, Cheney and their henchmen. 2. End all wars. All U.S. troops must be brought home at once from Afghanistan and Iraq by any means necessary, including the immediate cutoff of funding. 3. No Bush police-state dictatorship. Repeal the Patriot Act, restore full habeas corpus, respect the Bill of Rights and the Geneva Convention. 4. Government by the People, not by cliques of bankers and financiers. 5. 9/11 truth. Publish the full 9/11 documentation, and re-open the investigation. FIVE ACTION POINTS At a minimum, we aim to shape the climate of public opinion. We may become the focal point of a new political regroupment. These questions will be decided in the struggles that lie ahead. We suggest that questions of economic and social policy be deferred for now, and that they become the object of ongoing discussion. We also urge that organizational questions be postponed until a later time. We call on all organizations to join in launching the following urgent actions in support of the policies outlined: A. We will nominate and support independent political candidates for public office at all levels of government in the 2007 and 2008 elections. Because of the problems of ballot access, such candidate may need to enter the primary elections of the Republican, Democratic, Green, Libertarian, or other political parties. B. Truth squad interventions taking advantage of the new media (using camcorders to capture political content which is then posted on the internet) to intervene in the ongoing presidential primary campaigns of the Democrats, Republicans, and others, to focus public attention and political debate on the urgent questions outlined above, rather than on the divisive and artificial wedge issues preferred by the corporate media. C. Mass political education through internet web sites, conferences, books, DVDs, and a sustained campaign to write our own fairness doctrine by using radio, cable access, and call-ins to take back the public air waves from the right-wing extremists and left gatekeepers. D. This united front will exist as a process of political discussion, deliberation, mass organizing, and open debate open to political forces of all types who agree with its platform of ideas. Special attention will be given to campus organizing. E. Carefully selected legal actions, as typified by the civil RICO suit against Bush-Cheney as a continuing criminal enterprise.
