Kurds advance imperialist agenda for Iraq’s break-up

Crescent International

Ramadan 05, 14352014-07-03

The ISIS-created chaos in Iraq has provided an opportunity for Kurds to break away and create an “independent” state. It may become independent from Iraq but will be totally subservient to imperialist and Zionist forces. Destabilization of the entire region is in full swing.

ISIS making mockery of Islamic principles and concepts

Crescent International

Ramadan 03, 14352014-07-01

The Muslim Ummah is faced with many problems but often Muslims themselves are to blame. Consider the latest phenomenon of the thug al-Baghdadi and his declaration of the Khilafah. The noble concept of the Khialfah is being ridiculed by mass murderers and rapists using Islamic terms. The ill-conceived project is bound to collapse soon and with it will die the misplaced hopes of thousands of Muslim youth.

Ten Palestinians murdered before death of three Israelis announced

Crescent International

Ramadan 03, 14352014-07-01

Zionist killing of Palestinians is so routine that it hardly evokes any reaction anywhere, least of all in the racist Western media and the equally racist Western governments. When the bodies of three Israeli squatters were discovered in the West Bank, all hell broke loose but before that, at least 10 Palestinians among them a 7-year-old and 15-year-old Palestinian youth were already murdered by the zionist occupiers.

Another Saudi “prince” sacked from pos

Our Own Correspondent

Ramadan 01, 14352014-06-29

Sacking of princes shortly after their appointment and the failure of Saudi policies both at home and abroad point to growing uncertainty in the ruling family. The latest prince to get the boot was Deputy Defence Minister Prince Khaled bin Bandar bin Abdulaziz who had been at his post for merely two months. Clearly, the rotten "royal" family is on its way to oblivion.

Is Dr Sami al-Arian’s long ordeal finally over?

Crescent International

Sha'ban 30, 14352014-06-28

Although all charges against Dr Sami al-Arian, the former Florida professor, have finally been dropped, he still faces the threat of deportation. The US government should do the honorable thing and drop this charge as well immediately to prove it is based on the rule of law. His family has also suffered immensely all these years.

Egyptian court imposes stiff sentences on Al Jazeera journalists

Crescent International

Sha'ban 28, 14352014-06-26

By sentencing three Al Jazeera journalists to long prison sentences, the Egyptian regime of General (retired) Abdel Fattah el-Sisi has served notice that it will not allow any independent reporting even by foreign media outlets. The Egyptian media was already serving as propaganda mouthpiece for the regime; now it wants foreign media outlets to toe the line as well or else.

US-Saudi-funded ISIS spreads terror in Iraq

American Senator Rand Paul says the US government is involved in training and arming ISIS terrorists and its allies that have caused havoc in Syria and Iraq. The Republican Senator from Kentucky said had it not been for American support, ISIS would not be spreading terror in Iraq today. In the photo, ISIS terrorists are seen shooting and killing civilians dumped in a ditch in Tal Afar in Iraq.

Mahmoud Abbas defends cooperation with Israel

Crescent International

Sha'ban 21, 14352014-06-19

Mahmoud Abbas whose shelf-life has expired, continues to survive by trying to promote US-zionist interests against the wishes of the Palestinian people. His latest admission that he is helping Israel find three missing Jewish students has done nothing to improve his jaded image among Palestinians that continue to suffer zionist brutalities on a daily basis.

Egyptian courts go berserk with death sentences

Crescent International

Sha'ban 20, 14352014-06-18

The judges in Egypt act as executioners for the military while the thugs in uniform brandishing guns shoot and kill without mercy. Thousands of innocent people have been murdered in cold blood since the illegal military coup of July 3 against the first-ever elected President Mohamed Mursi. Family members of the just-sentenced victims cry on hearing about death sentences against their loved ones.

Pakistan army launches bombing campaign in North Waziristan

Crescent International

Sha'ban 19, 14352014-06-17

Under pressure from the US, the Pakistani military has launched massive strikes on North Waziristan in what is termed as going after "foreign terrorists" from Uzbekistan. How do they distinguish between foreign and local militants? Thousands of people--women, children and the elderly--have started fleeing their homes and have been turned into refugees. Many have fled to neighboring Afghanistan.

From al-Qaeda to ISIS: America's favorite terrorists

Crescent International

Sha'ban 17, 14352014-06-15

ISIS-led sectarian terror is causing havoc in the region. The Maliki government in Baghdad, however, cannot be absolved of responsibility either for contributing to the alienation of tribal elders in places like Mosul that facilitated the takeover by ISIS of the country's second largest city. Sectarianism cuts both ways; it must be condemned no matter who indulges in it.

Child sex abuse scandals and the Vatican

Crescent International

Sha'ban 13, 14352014-06-11

How widespread is child sex abuse in the Catholic Church? Two UN panel reports have issued scathing reports against the church and the Holy See. The problem has gone on for decades but is not likely to be solved any time soon, or at all because of the Vatican's refusal to deal with it honestly. The other problem is celibacy, an unnatural lifestyle that does not address the natural urge for sexual activity.

Iran nuclear talks enter crucial phase

Crescent International

Sha'ban 12, 14352014-06-10

Can the West led by the US bring itself around to accepting Iran's rights under the NPT? It will all depend on whether Washington has the ability to withstand zionist blackmail. If US President Barack Obama is serious about a deal with Iran, he can get one by sticking to principles rather than putting forward ludicrous demands.

Taliban's brazen attack on Karachi airport

Crescent International

Sha'ban 12, 14352014-06-10

How can the Taliban carry out such a brazen attack at Karachi airport especially when they have carried out previous attacks in the city and elsewhere? They had attacked the Mehran Naval base two years ago destroying several aircraft. In 2009, they attacked the Military Headquarters in Rawalpindi. What is going on in Pakistan and why do the intelligence and security personnel appear so clueless?

Hidden hands behind the burning of mosques in Turkey

Crescent International

Sha'ban 11, 14352014-06-09

Why the sudden eruption of sectarianism in Turkey resulting in the burning of mosques of Shias and Sunnis? Informed observers believe this is meant to undermine growing ties between two regional giants--Turkey and Iran--despite their differences on such issues as Syria. President Hassan Rouhani of Iran has arrived in Turkey and is expected to sign the Iran-Turkey High Council of Strategic Cooperation agreement.​​​​​​​

How the Israel lobby works

Philip Giraldi

Sha'ban 10, 14352014-06-08

Americans might be led to believe that their country is free, in reality, it is hostage to zionist interests. A large number of lobbies, think tanks and media outlets working at the behest of the zionist parasitical state keep the US and its people in bondage. Millions of Americans suffer in poverty but the zionists continue to suck the blood out of the US. Read and learn how the “lobby” works...​​​​​​​

Gun violence peaks in the United States

Crescent International

Sha'ban 09, 14352014-06-07

America has the highest murder rate in the world yet it wants to export its way of life to others. The ready availability of guns and frustrating any debate on gun-ownership by the National Rifle Association (NRA) means Americans will continue to kill each in large numbers. Families pay the price while vested interests ensure murder statistics keep climbing.

Pakistan: How a murder was spun into ‘stoning to death’ story

Crescent International

Sha'ban 08, 14352014-06-06

Pakistani media outlets have sold themselves for a few dollars to run down Islam and Pakistan as the tragic murder of Farzana Parveen shows. What was a cold blooded murder by the family has been turned into 'stoning to death' story to please the media's Islam-hating Western masters. Once the truth is established, the media outlets, anchors and their owners ought to be brought before the court and given exemplary punishment for spreading lies.
