Dissident Voice is an internet newsletter dedicated to challenging the distortions and lies of the corporate press and the privileged classes it serves. The goal of Dissident Voice is to provide hard hitting, thought provoking and even entertaining news and commentaries on politics and culture that can serve as ammunition in struggles for peace and social justice.

A regularly updated resource with links to many articles, quotes, and important information missing from mainstream news coverage about the war in Iraq.

Defending the fourth world, deconstructing the war on terrorism.

Linked with WELCOME TO WORLD WAR 4.

Why World War 4: The « World War III » envisioned in the Cold War was a devastating conflict between two monolithic superpowers. The Cold War, thankfully, never reached this climax. But now we are faced with its chilling sequel: the age of « asymmetrical » or « molecularized » warfare, in which a single globalized superpower faces an invisible, hydra-headed enemy which is everywhere and nowhere; in which the expansion of « free markets » is an explicit aim of military campaigns; and in which indigenous peoples, stateless ethnicities and localist/autonomist poltical models—the « Fourth World »–are increasingly targeted and conflated with the « terrorist » threat. The leaders of this new global crusade acknowledge openly that it will last generations. To emphasize that this new world situation requires a new kind of thinking, we have joined with those on the left and right alike that call this global conflict World War 4.
