Corporations At Tax Time: Who's Good
And Who's Bad (And Who's Really Ugly)
By Paul Buchheit
http://www.countercurrents.org/buchheit310311.htm
The top 100 companies, with $5 trillion in 2010 revenue and $500 billion in pre-tax earnings, paid less than 10% last year in non-deferred federal taxes. If these 100 companies had paid the 35% tax designated by U.S. tax law, an additional $140 billion would have been collected in federal taxes in just one year. This is approximately equal to the total budget deficits for all 50 states

By Professor Sattar Kassem

International Catastrophe
By Dr. Peter Custers
http://www.countercurrents.org/custers310311.htm

On The "Humanitarian Intervention" In Libya
By Zahid Makhdoom

Denying Bradley Manning Exercise:
A Ploy To Weaken His Mind
By Sherwood Ross
http://www.countercurrents.org/ross310311.htm
The object of denying Bradley exercise is to weaken both his body and his mind so that if the Army ever decides to bring his case to trial, it will be trying a human vegetable, perhaps a distraught man even incapable of understanding the charges against him, incapable of assisting his lawyers in his defense
The 'A-Word' In Hebron
By Letty Cottin Pogrebin
http://www.countercurrents.org/pogrebin310311.htm
If one opens one's eyes to the truth, the unmentionable becomes unavoidable — "A" for arrogance, and yes, for apartheid. It hurts me just to write that word. Justice-loving Jews cannot keep denying what is happening under Israeli auspices in Hebron; we can never say we didn't know

By Paul Carline
http://www.countercurrents.org/carline310311.htm
There is no future for a world which is complicit with a lie out of fear for its own psychological and material comfort - especially when the lie has brought death and misery to so many

By Andy Kroll
http://www.countercurrents.org/kroll310311.htm
That, of course, was the labor movement that, after a decade-long struggle, helped bring down the Soviet Union. Who knows what could happen here if Bird and his compatriots, awakened by the spark that was Madison, were to keep at it for 10 years or more? Who knows if Wisconsin wasn't the beginning of the end, but the beginning of something new?
Libya: Arms For "Democracy"
By Farooque Chowdhury
http://www.countercurrents.org/chowdhury310311.htm
With resorting to arms in Libya, it will be a democracy of the oil, by the oil, for the oil, a "democracy" exported to grab oil, the strategic mineral, and to demolish the Libyan people's journey to democracy capable to design their own economic and political life
Uranium Enrichment Plant: Focus On Mysore
By S.G.Vombatkere & N.S.Chakravarthy
http://www.countercurrents.org/vombatkere310311.htm
The nuclear establishment needs to earn public confidence by undoing its reputation of excessive secrecy and self-certification through re-structuring itself and becoming accountable to the public with genuine transparency. As far as Mysore's uranium enrichment installation is concerned, RMP authorities need to hold public hearings to answer questions concerning public safety and health
