Robert Gallo: The Man Who Created AIDS
Antonio C. S. Rosa, editor – TRANSCEND Media Service, 16 Sep 2013

Where did AIDS come from? Some say it doesn’t matter, as long as we find a cure. But what if the man and money that created it, are still spreading it along with lies and half-truths?

Bradley Manning’s letter to President Barack Obama Requesting a Pardon
Antonio C. S. Rosa, editor – TRANSCEND Media Service, 26 Aug 2013

Bradley Manning’s Excessive Sentence
Editorial Board – The New York Times, 26 Aug 2013

35 years is far too long a sentence. Government lawyers presented vague and largely speculative claims that Private Manning’s leaks had endangered lives and “chilled” diplomatic relations. Much of what he released was of public value, including a video of a military helicopter shooting at two vans and killing civilians, including two Reuters journalists.

Shortsighted Thinking on Israeli Settlements
The Editorial Board – NYT International Herald Tribune, 19 Aug 2013

On Monday [12 Aug 2013], Israel released a list of 26 Palestinian prisoners to be released Tuesday. A few hours before that it published bids for the construction of more than 1,000 housing units in West Bank settlements — a move to mollify right-wingers who oppose the prisoner release. This balancing act is not just untimely but a fresh cause for pessimism about the prospects for successful peace negotiations.

Refusing to Accept Sexism
Socialist Worker, editorial – TRANSCEND Media Service, 10 Jun 2013

Several articles at CounterPunch criticized Angelina Jolie for her decision to publicize undergoing a double mastectomy. Here, activists and scholars register their disappointment for sexist language and belittling attitudes. The title of Ruth Fowler’s first article, “Angelia Jolie: On Privilege, Tits, and Being Dumb,” reduces Jolie to a pair of “tits,” what we expect a typical male undergraduate student to say when first introduced to the notion of women’s objectification. CounterPunch also uses titles with ‘dick,’ ‘penis,’ and ‘cock’ in them.”

Declaration of the Mussalaha Delegation to Syria on the Refugee Situation in Lebanon
Antonio C. S. Rosa, editor – TRANSCEND Media Service, 20 May 2013

Since the cause of this crisis is the widespread violence in Syria, we call for an immediate end of all aid – lethal and nonlethal – to all combatants, an immediate and mutual ceasefire, and immediate negotiations among all the parties without preconditions. Lebanese citizens, Palestinian refugees living in Lebanon, Lebanese charitable institutions and other Lebanese civil society institutions deserve much credit for providing support that the international society has not done. However, a refugee influx of this magnitude is more than any society the size of Lebanon can accommodate without aid from the UN.

As the hunger strike reaches its 100th day on May 17 [2013], 100 prisoners are refusing food. The Pentagon, which once called prisoner suicides “asymmetric warfare,” has dismissed the hunger strike as a publicity stunt. Rather than “reward bad behavior,” the official response has been to throw the men into solitary confinement and keep the most weakened alive through torturous means.

The Concluding Declaration of the Mussalaha Peace Delegation to Syria
Antonio C. S. Rosa, editor – TRANSCEND Media Service, 20 May 2013

Mussalaha Peace Mission to Syria – May 1- 11, 2013. We consider it beyond debate that the Syrian people have the right to determine their own government and their own future. Foreign interference is currently preventing the Syrian people from exercising their right to self-determination. We are concerned that such pernicious intervention is tearing apart the fabric of the country itself, with long-term consequences that can only be imagined. The cautionary example of Iraq serves to remind us of the dire consequences of such international folly.

Indisputable Torture

The report found that those methods violated international legal obligations with “no firm or persuasive evidence” that they produced valuable information that could not have been obtained by other means. This blunt language should help end a corrosive debate that has broken down on largely partisan lines. The panel further details the ethical lapses of government lawyers in the Bush years who served up “acrobatic” advice to justify brutal interrogations, and of medical professionals who helped oversee them.
