U.S.A. ThisWeek is a national weekly news magazine, the print version will soon to be launched that will provide national weekly news-media representation for African Americans and fill a long standing news-media void. It’s our position that, until African Americans have a national voice that presents a perspective representing our interests and concerns on a weekly basis, we are relegated to less than full participation in the society. With the establishment of U.S.A ThisWeek, no longer will the area of news be dominated by the mainstream news media nor will the proliferation of traditional pundits, politicians and news readers have a monopoly on the opinions and perspectives being posited to the public.
In addition, with the new threat to our existence of international terrorism which places us all at risk, we can no longer remain quiescent and allow information that would address that threat to go unreported. Right now we’re in a Russian roulette posture based on the assessment of the current administration that “they only have to be right once; we have to be right all the time.”

The King Kong size Gorilla in the room is finally getting some long deserved attention. Someone has dared to touch the third rail in American politics.  The untouchable sacred cow of the United States government, politicians and press, the Palestinian/Israeli conflict, is now being assailed. President Jimmy Carter is doing what few American politicians have been courageous enough to do, which is to point out the injustice that is being inflicted on the Palestinians by successive Israeli governments. This is tantamount to the little boy in the crowd shouting that, “the Emperor ain’t got no clothes on.” The question is, will the crowd -- i.e., the press and the politicians -- continue to ignore this burdensome truth? Or will they seize the moment to rectify a policy that guarantees ever increasing enmity from the rest of the world and which contributes greatly to the terrorist threat and the perpetual unrest in the Middle East. While Carter’s words speak for themselves, there remain dire ramifications which can bring to these shores the anger generated by that conflict.

Once again news media assumes accommodating pre-war posture.
“If George W. Bush launches a pre-emptive war on Iran, House Speaker Nancy  Pelosi will bear full moral responsibility for the war,” to quote Patrick Buchanan, former Republican Presidential candidate, political columnist and regular guest on MSNBC’s lineup of cable news shows. According to the Associated Press report written by Mathew Leed and David M Eso, Pelosi withdrew the requirement that Bush seek congressional approval before launching any new war with Iran.
