Dear Friends and Colleagues,
It's encouraging that Cynthia McKinney is celebrating US Independence
Day by acting quite independently. May she inspire many others.
Back in '75 I organized a July 4 occasion in San Francisco called
Interdependence Day to remind folks that we share this planet with other
species and that if we take them out, we remove ourselves also.
Today it's even more urgent to celebrate July 4 biocentrically rather
than anthropocentrically. Besides, it's more independent.
Yours for waking to the quantum ether,

Cynthia McKinney Remains Imprisoned in Israel
After Gaza-Bound Boat Is Seized
Former U.S. Rep. Cynthia McKinney and several other human rights activists
remain in an Israeli prison after refusing to sign a deportation form that
they claim is self-incriminating.

Former U.S. lawmaker and Green Party presidential candidate Cynthia McKinney
and several other activists remained in an Israeli prison Thursday after
refusing to sign a deportation form that they claim is self-incriminating.
In a press release from the Green Party, McKinney said the form states that
the Spirit of Humanity, a Greek-flagged relief boat carrying 21 activists,
medical supplies, cement, olive trees and children's toys en route to Gaza,
was violating the Israeli blockade and trespassing the country's territorial
waters.
"We were in international waters on a boat delivering humanitarian aid to
people in Gaza when the Israeli Navy ships surrounded us and illegally
threatened us, dismantled our navigation equipment, boarded and confiscated
the ship," she said in a statement, adding that they were immediately taken
into custody.
"Immigration officials in Israel said they did not want to keep us, but we
remain imprisoned," she said.
"State Department and White House officials have not effected our release or
taken a strong public stance to condemn the illegal actions of the Israeli
Navy of enforcing a blockade of humanitarian assistance to the Palestinians
of Gaza, a blockade that has been condemned by President Obama."
The Israeli military issued a statement Tuesday saying that the boat had
attempted to break a blockade of Gaza and was forced to sail to an Israeli
port after ignoring a radio message to stay out of waters around Gaza.
Israeli Foreign Ministry spokesman Yigal Palmor has said Israel was planning
to free the crew and passengers.
"Nobody wants to keep them here," he said earlier this week. "They will be
released as soon as they are checked."
But so far, only two activists have been released -- both Israeli citizens.
The others are still being held in Givon prison in Ramla, Israel.
Israeli authorities will hold the remaining activists in the prison for
three more days before the government decides to release them or continue to
detain them, the Green Party release said.
While it was the second time in a year that McKinney's relief boat was
seized by an Israeli naval ship, it's the first time that longtime supporter
of Palestinians has been detained.

Israel Deports Free Gaza Activists
Sat, 04 Jul 2009 01:30:12 GMT
A member of Free Gaza Group hangs up a Palestinian flag on the ship in
Larnaca port, Cyprus.
Israel deports five Bahraini activists among the Gaza-bound humanitarian
convoy it had earlier seized on charge of violating its 'territorial
waters'.
On Friday, the five, who allegedly include a reporter for the Doha-based
satellite TV channel, al-Jazeera, were taken out of Israel custody to be
taken back to their homeland via the Ben Gurion airport south of Tel Aviv,
the Palestinian Ma'an news agency reported.
They had traveled to the blockade-stricken coastal sliver among the
international Free Gaza Movement aid convoy.
Earlier in the week, Israeli battleships circled the movement's
Greek-flagged vessel, Spirit of Humanity which was sailing in international
waters.
Israeli marines then took hold of the ship capturing its 22 crewmembers who
included former US lawmaker Cynthia McKinney, Irish Nobel peace prize
laureate Mairead Maguire and several other human rights activists.
"They kidnapped all on board, they tore the Greek flag off the boat then
incarcerated them. To say we are angry would be an extreme understatement,"
the movement's spokesman Greta Berlin told The Cyprus Mail.
The vessel was carrying medial supplies, cement, olive trees and children's
toys to Gaza which has weathered nearly two years of all-out Israeli-imposed
siege which has deprived it of all necessities.
Tel Aviv says it is to eventually deport most of the group. The members,
though, have refused to sign deportation forms put forward to them saying it
was equal to agreeing to the Israeli charges that they were violating the
blockade and trespassing territorial waters.

News from Nicaragua
Since 8:00 a.m. on the 3rd of July Social Organizations of Nicaragua are at
the three border crossings with Honduras holding a day of resistance which
consists of a blockade at each crossing.
At this moment there are Honduran military at each border crossing.
At the principal crossing, the border of las Manos, a strong contingent of
social organizations coordinated by Via Campesina are speaking with the
local populace to not be coerced by the coup plotters and to mobilize freely
to demand the return of President Mel Zelaya.
There are a hundred or so trucks paralyzed because they cannot pass the
border, putting the lie to the disinformation of the media in Honduras that
assures everyone there total calm prevails there.
In this action the Nicaraguan media are present to report without
censorship the reality of these events.
In the meantime, compaqeros of Via Campesina and from other social movements
in general are joining this solidarity action and struggle against the Coup
D4Etat undertaken by the military and members of the oligarchy in Honduras.
In the afternoon there will be a meeting to evaluation the actions already
undertaken and to define tomorrow4s actions, when the arrival of Mel in
Tegucigalpa will be announced.

Subject: China finally demanding that its exports be paid Yuan - Henry C K
Liu
If China and East Asia institute trade not denominated in Dollars, it will
be the end of Dollar Hegemony. No more Current Account Deficits for the US.
This would force the US to produce as much as it consumes - at a time when
it has shipped its factories offshore and saved China decades of R&D by
transferring technology within those factories.
Soon after, the US would no longer be able to afford to run its overseas
military bases. It would have to pull back its forces, just as the USSR did
30 years earlier.
And then, one can expect the pent-up frustration of ordinary Americans,
against the elite which has killed the golden goose, to lead to civil
insurrection. No efforts at containment would be effective once the Dollar
crashes.

Dollar's future in US hands
Henry C K Liu
http://atimes.com/atimes/China_Business/KG02Cb01.html
Jul 2, 2009
Since 2008, I have been widely recognized on the Internet as the person who
changed China's policy regarding the US dollar by advocating since 2002 that
Chinese exports should be denominated in yuan. Chinese readers doing a
Google search on my Chinese name will find numerous posts to that effect.
The issue is not whether Asian central banks will continue to have
confidence in the dollar, but why Asian central banks should see their
mandate as supporting the continuous expansion of the dollar economy through
dollar hegemony at the expense of their own non-dollar economies. Why should
Asian economies send real wealth in the form of goods to the US for foreign
paper of declining value instead of selling their goods in their own
economy? Without dollar hegemony, Asian economies can finance their own
economic development with sovereign credit in their own currencies and not
be addicted to export for fiat dollars that repeatedly lose purchasing power
because of US monetary and fiscal indiscipline. As for Americans, is it a
good deal to exchange your job for lower prices at Wal-Mart? (See Follies of
fiddling with the yuan, Asia Times Online, October 23, 2003, for a detailed
analysis of the relationship of the Chinese currency to the dollar.)
In a September 2004 article, I wrote <http://henryckl.ipower.com/page3.html
>:
"China needs to activate its domestic market to balance its overblown
foreign trade. The Chinese economy can benefit enormously by the aggressive
deployment of sovereign credit for domestic development and growth,
particularly in the slow-growth western and central regions. Sovereign
credit can be used to stimulate domestic demand by raising wage levels,
improve farm income, promote state-owned-enterprise restructuring and bank
reform, build needed infrastructure, promote education and health care,
re-order the pension system, restore the environment and promote a cultural
renaissance. While exchange control continues, China can free its economy
from the dictate of dollar hegemony, adopt a strategy of balanced
development financed by sovereign credit and wean itself from excess
dependence on export for dollars. Sovereign credit can finance full
employment with rising wages in the Chinese economy of 1.4 billion people
and project it towards the largest economy in the world within a very short
time, possibly in less than five years. The expansion of its domestic
economy will enable China to import more, thus also allowing it to export
more without excessive and persistent trade gaps. Much needs to be done, and
can be done to develop the full potential of Chinas economy, but exporting
for dollars is not the way to do it.
"China is in the position to kick start a new international finance
architecture that will serve international trade better. China has the
option of making the yuan an alternative reserve currency in world trade by
simply denominating all Chinese export in yuan. This sovereign action can be
taken unilaterally at any time of China's choosing. All the Chinese State
Council has to do is to announce that as of a certain date all Chinese
exports must be paid for in yuan, making it illegal for Chinese exporters to
accept payment in any other currencies. This will set off a frantic scramble
by importers of Chinese goods around the world to buy yuan at the State
Administration for Foreign Exchange (SAFE), making the yuan a preferred
currency with ready market demand. Companies with yuan revenue no longer
need to exchange yuan into dollars, as the yuan, backed by the value of
Chinese exports, becomes universally accepted in trade.
"Members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), which
import sizable amount of Chinese goods, would accept yuan for payment for
their oil, so will Russia. This can be done without de-pegging the yuan from
the dollar and SAFE can retain it position as the exclusive window for
trading yuan for other currencies without any need for new currency control
regulations. The proper exchange rate of the yuan can then be set by China
not based on export to the US, but on Chinese conditions.
"If Chinese exports are paid in yuan, China will have no need to hold
foreign reserves, which currently stand at more than $480 billion [2004
figure, $2 trillion in 2009]. And if the Hong Kong dollar is pegged to the
yuan instead of the dollar, Hong Kong's $120 billion foreign-exchange
reserves can also be freed for domestic restructuring and development.
Chinese trade surplus would stay in the yuan economy. China is on the way to
becoming a world economic giant but it has yet to assert its rightful
financial power because of dollar hegemony.
"There is no stopping China from being a powerhouse in manufacturing. Many
Asian economies are trapped in protracted financial crisis from excessive
foreign-currency debts and falling real export revenue resulting from
predatory currency devaluation. The International Monetary Fund (IMF),
orchestrated by the US, has come to the 'rescue' of these distressed
economies with a new agenda beyond the usual IMF conditionalities of
austerity to protect Group of Seven (G7) creditors. This new agenda aims to
open Asian markets for US transnational corporations to acquire distressed
Asian companies so that the foreign-acquired Asian subsidiaries can produce
and market goods and services inside Asian national borders as domestic
enterprises, thus skirting potential protectionist measures. The United
States, through the IMF, aims to break down the traditionally closed
financial systems all over Asia. This system mobilizes high national savings
to finance industrial policies to serve giant national industrial
conglomerates with massive investment in targeted export sectors. The IMF,
controlled by the US, aims at dismantling these traditional Asian financial
systems and forcing Asians to replace them with a structurally alien global
system, characterized by open markets for products and services and
crucially, for financial products and services. The focus is of course on
China, for as US policymakers know: as China goes, so goes the rest of Asia.
"Trade flows under neo-liberal globalization in the context of dollar
hegemony have put Asian countries in a position of unsustainable dependency
on foreign, dollar-denominated loans and capital to finance export sectors
that are at the mercy of saturated foreign markets while neglecting domestic
development to foster productive forces and to support budding domestic
consumer markets. In Asia, outside the small elite circle of well-heeled
compradores, most people cannot afford the products they produce in
abundance for export, nor can they afford high-cost imports. An average
worker in Asia would have to work days making hundreds of pairs of shoes at
low wages to earn enough to buy one McDonald's hamburger meal for his family
while Asian compradores entertain their foreign backers in luxurious
five-star hotels with prime steaks imported from Omaha. Markets outside of
Asia cannot grow fast enough to satisfy the developmental needs of the
populous Asian economies. Thus intra-region trade to promote domestic
development within Asia needs to be the main focus of growth if Asia is ever
to rise above the level of semi-colonial subsistence that will inevitably
translate into political instability.
"The Chinese economy will move quickly up the trade-value chain, in advanced
electronics, telecommunications, and aerospace, which are inherently 'dual
use' technologies with military implications. Strategic phobia will push the
US to exert all its influence to keep the global market for 'dual use'
technologies closed to China. Thus 'free trade' for the US is not the same
as freedom to trade. Increasingly, the worlds nations will all procure
their military needs from the same global technology market. Depriving any
nation access to dual-use technology will not enhance national security as
the deprived nation can easily shift to asymmetrical warfare which is more
destabilizing than conventional armament.
"Still, China will inevitably be a major global player in the knowledge
industries because of its abundant supply of raw human potential. Even in
the US, a high percentage of its scientists are of Chinese ethnicity. With
an updated educational system, China will be a top producer of brain power
within another decade. World leaders in high-tech, such as Intel and
Microsoft, are actively pursuing cross-border R&D wage-arbitrage in Asia,
primarily in China and India. As China moves up the technology ladder,
coupled with rising consumer demand in tandem with a growth economy, global
trade flow will be affected, modifying the 'race to the bottom' predatory
competitive game of two decades of globalization among Asian exporters to
acquire dollars to invest in the dollar economy, toward trade to earn their
own currencies for investment in domestic development.
"Asian economies will find in China a preferred alternative trading partner,
possibly with more symbiotic trading terms, providing more room to structure
trade to enhance domestic development along the path of converging regional
interest and solidarity. The rise in living standards in all of Asia will
change the path of history, restoring Asia as a center of advanced
civilization, putting an end to two centuries of Western economic and
cultural imperialism and dominance.
"The foreign-trade strategies of all trading nations in recent decades of
neo-liberal globalization have contributed to the destabilizing of the
global trading system. It is not possible or rational for all countries to
export themselves out of domestic recessions or poverty. The contradictions
between national strategic industrial policies and neo-liberal open-market
systems will generate friction between the US and all its trading partners,
as well as among regional trade blocs and inter-region competitors. The US
engages in global trade to enhance its superpower status, not to undermine
it. Thus the US does not seek equal partners as a matter of course. With
economic sanctions as a tool of foreign policy, the US has been preventing,
or trying to prevent, an increasing number of US transnational companies,
and foreign companies trading with the US, from doing business in an
increasing number of countries deemed rogue by Washington. Trade flows not
where it is needed most, but to where it best serves the US national
security interest.
"Neo-liberal globalization has promoted the illusion that trade is a win-win
transaction for all, based on the Ricardian model of comparative advantage.
Yet economists recognize that without global full employment, comparative
advantage is merely Say's Law internationalized. Say's Law states that
supply creates its own demand, but only under full employment, a
pre-condition supply-siders conveniently ignore. After two decades, this
illusion has been shattered by concrete data: poverty has increased
worldwide and global wages, already low to begin with, have declined since
the Asian financial crisis of 1997, and by 45 percent in some countries,
such as Indonesia.
"Yet export to the US under dollar hegemony is merely an arrangement in
which the exporting nations, in order to earn dollars to buy needed
commodities denominated in dollars and to service dollar loans, are forced
to finance the consumption of US consumers by the need to invest their trade
surplus dollars in dollar assets as foreign-exchange reserves, giving the US
a rising capital account surplus to finance its rising current account
deficit. [Wages everywhere are continuing to decline with no bottom in sight
in the current credit crisis.]
"Furthermore, the trade surpluses are achieved not by an advantage in the
terms of trade, but by sheer self-denial of basic domestic needs and
critical imports necessary for domestic development. Not only are the
exporting nations debasing the value of their labor, degrading their
environment and depleting their natural resources for the privilege of
running on the poverty treadmill, they are enriching the dollar economy and
strengthening dollar hegemony in the process, and causing harm also to the
US economy. Thus the exporting nations allow themselves to be robbed of
needed capital for critical domestic development in such vital areas as
education, health and other social infrastructure, by assuming heavy foreign
debt to finance export, while they beg for even more foreign investment in
the export sector by offering still more exorbitant returns and tax
exemptions, putting increased social burden on the domestic economy. Yet
many small economies around the world have no option but to continue to
serve dollar hegemony like a drug addiction."
That was written in 2004. Now, at long last, jolted by the global financial
crisis that began in July 2007, China is finally demanding that its export
be paid in Chinese yuan. But this demand should not be interpreted as a push
to make the yuan a reserved currency for international trade. China only
wants to denominate its bilateral trade in yuan. It has no desire in making
the yuan a reserve currency for international trade in which China is not
directly involved. Because of the size of the economy, the dollar will
continue to serve as a preferred reserve currency, but only if the US puts
its own financial house in order.

Subject: Obama suit going forward
Get a Load of This !!!!!!!
In a related matter, under growing pressure from several groups,
Justice Antonin Scalia announced that the Supreme Court agreed on
Tuesday to hear arguments concerning Obamas legal eligibility to
serve as President in a case brought by Leo Donofrio of New Jersey ..
This lawsuit claims Obama's dual citizenship disqualified him from
serving as president. Donofrios case is just one of 18 suits brought
by citizens demanding proof of Obamas citizenship or qualification to
serve as president
AP- WASHINGTON D.C. - In a move certain to fuel the debate over
Obamas qualifications for the presidency, the group Americans for
Freedom of Information has Released copies of President Obamas
college transcripts from Occidental College. Released today, the
transcript indicates that Obama, under the name Barry Soetoro,
received financial aid as a foreign student from Indonesia as an
undergraduate at=2 0the school. The transcript was released by Occidental
College in compliance with a court order in a suit brought by the
group in the Superior Court of California. The transcript shows that
Obama (Soetoro) applied for financial aid and was awarded a
fellowship for foreign students from the Fulbright Foundation
Scholarship program. To qualify, for the scholarship, a student must
claim foreign citizenship. This document would seem to provide the
smoking gun that many of Obamas detractor s have been seeking.
Along with the evidence that he was first born in Kenya and there is
no record of him ever applying for US citizenship, this is looking
pretty grim. The news has created a firestorm at the White House as
the release casts increasing doubt about Obamas legitimacy and
qualification to serve as president. When reached for comment in
London , where he has been in meetings with British Prime Minister Gor
don Brown, Obama smiled but refused comment on the issue.
Britain's Daily Mail has also carried the story in a front-page
article titled, Obama Eligibility Questioned leading some to speculate
that the story may overshadow economic issues on Obamas first
official visit to the U.K.
In a related matter, under growing pressure from several groups,
Justice Antonin Scalia announced that the Supreme Court agreed on
Tuesday to hear arguments concerning Obamas legal eligibility to

by20citizens demanding p roof of Obamas citizenship or qualification

Gary Kreep of the United States Justice Foundation has released the
results of their investigation of Obamas campaign spending. This
study estimates that Obama has spent upwards of $950,000 in campaign
funds in the past year with eleven law firms in 12 states for legal
resources to block disclosure of any of his personal records. Mr.
Kreep indicated that the investigation is still ongoing but that the
final report will be provided to the U.S. Attorney General, Eric
