Republicans Are Pussies On Terrorism

You would of thought President Obama crawled in a cave with Bin Laden the way right wingers are reacting to comments divulged by Bob Woodward in his new book on the Obama administration.

Terrorism vs. Mass Struggle

The Middle East is often associated with terrorist attacks, suicide bombings and Al-Qaeda. At the same time we also think about the war in Iraq and the ruthless occupation of Gaza. But on the other hand we can also see the awakening of the mass struggle in this region. The most advanced expression of it being the movement in Iran, which has shaken the theocratic regime to the core and upset the plans of imperialism.
