By : Brian McAfee - Wednesday August 3, 2011 One of the most significant ongoing scourges that befalls humanity worldwide is the ongoing exploitation and sexual abuse of over two million girls and boys through sex trafficking. UNICEF estimates that two and a half million children, most of them girls, are tricked or forced into the multibillion dollar global sex industry. The struggle to save, protect and defend the safety and well-being of children at risk for this type of travesty is and will remain an ongoing, sometimes uphill (...)

By : Claude Ribbe - Monday June 13, 2011 Dominique Strauss-Kahn, the French ex-managing director of the International Monetary Fund, rich, powerful, famous, bloated with arrogance and vanity, is accused by a perfectly ordinary, hard-working African Muslim immigrant in New York of attempting to rape her and forcing her against her will to engage in sexual acts. Because the ambitious Dominique Strauss-Kahn – the self-proclaimed future president of the French republic – claims to be a leftist, because he was the (...)

By : Michael Whitney - Thursday April 28, 2011 President Barack Obama made stunning accusations about accused Wikileaks whistleblower PFC Bradley Manning, directly asserting that Manning “broke the law.” Apparently the President of the United States of America and a self-described Constitutional scholar does not care that Manning has yet to be tried or convicted for any crime. In a discussion yesterday with Logan Price, a Bradley Manning supporter who was part of a group of activists who sang a song during the (...)

By : David R. Hoffman, Pravda.Ru Legal Editor - Monday February 21, 2011 During my years of writing for Pravda.Ru, I have frequently been critical of America’s legal system, which, in turn, has prompted many readers to ask why and how this disillusionment took place. In truth, it is doubtful my disillusionment would ever have occurred had I entered law school with the requisite cynicism, selfishness, greed and lust for power typical of many who seek careers in the legal profession. Instead I entered with the idealistic notions that America’s legal (...)

By : London - Friday December 10, 2010 No wonder Wikileaks is under concerted attack — undoubtedly orchestrated by the US government. The aim is to silence the whistle blowing website, which every day reveals the secrecy and lies used to justify war, torture and corruption. There is nothing warmongering politicians fear more than the exposure of the real reasons for the mass slaughter and destruction that they carry out in our name. Over the past two years Wikileaks has proved itself repeatedly to be a (...)

By : James D. Catlin - Thursday December 9, 2010 by Melbourne barrister James D. Catlin, who acted for Julian Assange in London in October. Apparently having consensual sex in Sweden without a condom is punishable by a term of imprisonment of a minimum of two years for rape. That is the basis for a reinstitution of rape charges against WikiLeaks figurehead Julian Assange that is destined to make Sweden and its justice system the laughing stock of the world and dramatically damage its reputation as a model of modernity. Sweden’s (...)

By : David R. Hoffman, Pravda.Ru Legal Editor - Friday December 3, 2010 In my recent article “Ward Churchill: The Lie Lives On” (Pravda.Ru, 11/29/2010), I discussed the following realities about America’s legal “system”: it is duplicitous and corrupt; it will go to any extremes to insulate from prosecution, and in many cases civil liability, persons whose crimes facilitate this duplicity and corruption; it has abdicated its responsibility to serve as a “check-and-balance” against the other two branches of government, (...)

By : David R. Hoffman, Pravda.Ru Legal Editor - Friday November 26, 2010 Make no mistake about it: America’s so-called legal “system” is hopelessly and intransigently corrupt. In fact, if this “system” were beholden to its own laws, it would undoubtedly be guilty of fraud, extortion, obstruction of justice and conspiracy. Of course, this reality should be self-evident, considering that men like Clarence Thomas, Antonin Scalia, Samuel Alito, John Roberts and Anthony Kennedy preside at its summit—the United States Supreme (...)
