World war leaders to set Afghanistan's future

World leaders weary of war will tackle Afghanistan's post-war future -- from funding offensive forces to [rigging] upcoming elections -- when the NATO summit opens Sunday.

Occupy Chicago and other peaceful demonstrators are calling attention to installed-Mayor Rahm Emmanuel and Pres. Obama. Obama's endless-war policy shows that he represents the military-industrial complex (MIC) and the militarized 1%.

The mayor has called out all police state special weapons and tactics. Agents, uniformed and undercover, are out in force corralling demonstrators in a massive show of force aimed at creating a chilling effect against pro-peace activity.
