Today’s video of the day comes from The O’Reilly Factor, where I debated America’s role in the Mexican drug wars.

Against the War — Against Empire!

Ona Move!  LLJA!

Dear brothas and sistas against empire!

I greet you all from America’s Death Row (or, what some have called, Guantanamo North.)

As you gather today against the carnage and hell brought to both Afghanistan and Iraq, know that the rumblings and warnings of dissent, of the voices of millions back in Spring, 2003, have come true.

Many people said the war would wreak destruction not just abroad, but here at home, as the economy would crumble.

It’s now 2009 — look around you, and you can almost see things falling.  This is but the latest crisis of capitalism.  The stock market is a jack ‘n’ the box, and I needn’t even mention the foreclosure crisis.  It’s but the latest bubble to burst.

And joblessness!

But as bad as things are here, they pale in comparison  to the hell lived by millions under U.S.  occupation in Iraq and Afghanistan.  Why should anyone be surprised that the most popular man in Iraq is Muntadher al-Zeidi, the journalist who launched a pair of size 10’s at the American president (Bush), and not the U.S. puppet installed as Prime Minister?

In Afghanistan, the so called president is little more than the Mayor of Kabul, and also the head of the biggest heroin ring on earth.

Isn’t it time to say goodbye to empire?

I thank you for your kind invitation!

Down with all Imperial Wars!

Ona Move!  Long Live John Africa!

U.S. Ready For North Korean Missile

Following the testing of a missile defense system, the Senate Armed Services Committee was told that there is a “high probability” that they could intercept a North Korean missile. What do you think?

Eddie Kerr,
Customs Agent
“Oh! Oh! If we intercept it, can we keep it?”

Megan Carpio,
Case Manager
“Wouldn’t it just be easier for the Japanese mainland to intercept the missile?”

Nick Sanford,
Bricklayer
“Wait, the U.S. actually has a working missile defense system? Oh, I keep forgetting we now live in that alternate universe with that black president.”

Need I say more?

Today’s video of the day comes from the SXSW shows, where Kanye, Common, and Erykah Badu ripped a freestyle. Hotness!
