Hi there,

As the future of democracy in the United States hangs in the balance, the need for courageous independent media is more important than ever. Our reporting centers the voices of people routinely excluded from corporate and government-run media, such as those raising deep questions about war and peace, demanding an end to our global reliance on fossil fuels. Because we are audience-supported, we need your help today. Can you donate $15 to Democracy Now! today to support independent media? From now until Giving Tuesday, a group of generous donors will TRIPLE your gift, which means your $15 donation is worth $45. Please help us air in-depth, substantive coverage of the outcome of the election and what it means for our collective future. Thank you so much! Every dollar makes a difference.

Ahmadinejad: Capitalism Coming to End

HeadlineSep 22, 2010

The attack comes after Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad addressed the UN on Tuesday with a call for a new economic system. Ahmadinejad said capitalism is coming to an end.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad: “The third millennium should be the millennium with the pursuit of a new order based on pure and righteous governance all over the world and in the centers of power. Now that the discriminatory order of capitalism and hegemonic approaches are facing defeat and are getting close to their end, all-out participation in holding justice and prosperous interrelations is essential.”

Ahmadinejad’s speech was disrupted after UN workers stopped providing English translation, blaming a technical glitch. He’s set to address the General Assembly again on Thursday.
