This is a renewed attack upon Palestinian civil society and their struggle against the physical and psychological oppression, land confiscation and ethnic cleansing policies of the Israel.

Sacrificing Stratfor: How the FBI waited three weeks to close the stable door

On 6th December, 2011, infamous computer hacker Sabu was contacted on an IRC chat server by a screen name familiar to him, "sup_g". What "sup_g" didn't know was that Sabu—one of the most visible characters in the Anonymous movement, a member of the Lulzsec hacking group, and a key reviver of the "AntiSec" hacking movement—had reportedly been arrested five months earlier, on June 7th, pled guilty in a secret court hearing on August 15th to charges potentially totaling 126.5 years of prison time, and was working for the Federal Bureau of Investigation as an informant.

Sabu the Inciter: Marveling at the FBI's Hacker Frankenstein Monster

As the story goes...FOX News, once itself a target of the LulzSec hacker group, broke an explosive story on March 6th, 2012 that the Anonymous movement had been infiltrated at one of its cores for 8-9 months by an FBI informant—none other than Sabu—one of the most wanted hackers in the world. One thing that is crystal clear from even a cursory glance down the list of some of Sabu's 3,200 tweets: the scale of the incitement to illegal activity the account was publicly spewing on a daily basis.

Wikileaks releases "The Global Intelligence Files"

LONDON—Today, Monday 27 February, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files – more than five million emails from the Texas-headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The emails date from between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal’s Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defense Intelligence Agency.

Pittsburgh's Mellon Green finally unoccupied

As Occupy Pittsburgh's Downtown encampment ended, several protesters kept an eye on law enforcement from a location suited more for the 1 percent they oppose than the 99 percent they support. Protesters Nigel Parry and Nathaniel Glosser said the group rented an 11th-floor room for two nights this week and expected to stay a third in the plush Omni William Penn Hotel overlooking the ragtag tent city at Mellon Green. Omni employees said the room cost around $250 a night. The group spent nearly the same amount on Monday for a room in the nearby Doubletree hotel.

The revolution will be televised, streamed and uploaded

When I began writing this article, Global Revolution’s Brooklyn offices had just been raided by the New York Police Department (NYPD). Global Revolution has broadcasted live video from the Occupy Wall Street (OWS) protests since they began on September 17th, 2011. Within the first month, their live stream had served video to three million viewers according to Nigel Parry of Global Revolution. I spoke with Parry a few days after the raid, curious to know when Global Revolution would be back up and running. He informed me they had never stopped streaming. Their decentralized model had allowed them to continue offering live streams from around the world even after the raid. “In the end, we can do this from laptops connected to the Internet from anywhere around the world. The Global Revolution is unstoppable,” Parry said.
