Occupy COP in Durban (South Africa)
At the UN climate talks on Dec. 10, 2011 citizens of the world got together and occupied the UN to let them know how they felt. There were calls for "climate justice" and a rejection of "false solutions." Inspired by the Occupy Movement, a People's Assembly was held in the corridor. Representatives from across the globe spoke about how the climate crisis was affecting their communities and demanded an ambitious outcome in line with science.
Meanwhile, the US military-industrial complex (MIC) gears up for war with secret attacks in Iran. But China and Russia warn the Mossad and CIA with WW III if they invade. The US/MIC is not leaving Saddam Hussein's Iraq; it is merely replacing government soldiers with "private contractors" (highly paid mercenaries) doing the exact same thing, apparently with the immunity from war crimes prosecution ordinary soldiers could not get. Does this make Obama a private warlord rather than commander-in-chief of the US military?
