THE DIALOGUE THAT MUST NOT BE REFUSED AGAIN

In September 2001, as the rubble of the Twin Towers still smoldered and the logic of civilizational war was becoming American policy, Iran’s President Mohammad Khatami rose before a United Nations conference and made a different argument.

Apart from the obvious loss of life and the mass destruction of infrastructure, the war on Iran by the US-Israeli joint venture exposes more fault-lines in our beleaguered international system: Double standards.

GAZA’S DEMISE IS NOT ON ISRAEL’S BRUTALITY, IT IS ON THE WATCH OF THE US, PERIOD!

THE DETERIORATING US-EU RELATIONS HERALDS THE DAWN OF A NEW INTERNATIONAL WORLD ORDER
