  • Not in My Jewish Name: From Israel’s (perpetual) Crimes Against Humanity to Slandering Ms. Rachel

    Not in My Jewish Name: From Israel’s (perpetual) Crimes Against Humanity to Slandering Ms. Rachel

    A tragic canard of history — i.e., the assertion: “Israel is the ancestral homeland of the Jewish people; therefore, we Jews have the right to return and establish a Jewish ethno-supremacist state.” Only by a literal reading — i.e., cracked-brained — of Old Testament mythos can we Jews claim to be the people G-d choose […]

  • Schemes of Bankruptcy: The United Nations, Funding Dues, and Human Rights

    The United Nations, in turning 80, has been berated, dismissed and libelled. In September, US President Donald Trump took a hearty swipe at the body’s alleged impotence. “What is the purpose of the United Nations?” he posed to gathered world leaders. All it seemed to do was “write a really strongly worded letter and then […]

  • First International Day Against Unilateral Coercive Measures

    In June of 2025, the United Nations General Assembly designated December 4 as the annual International Day against Unilateral Coercive Measures, urging States to stop using such measures (commonly called “sanctions”) because they violate international law and impose collective punishment. Last night, the SanctionsKill campaign and partners honored the day by inviting speakers to discuss […]

  • The North-South Project Reclaims Human Rights as People(s)-Centered

    December 10th, International Human Rights Day, represents one year since the launch of the North-South Project for People(s)-Centered Human Rights. The North-South Project seeks to address the contradiction of the human rights idea being co-opted and instrumentalized as a weapon of white supremacist colonial domination and exploitation. The PCHR frame emerged to counter that. Rooted […]

  • NDP Takes Orwellian World View to Deny My Candidacy

    NDP Takes Orwellian World View to Deny My Candidacy

    Up is down. Right is left. International law is whatever empire says it is. Democracy is following our rules. The audacity, chauvinism and absurdity of the NDP vetting committee is a sight to behold. To justify denying party members the right to choose whether they want me to lead the party, the three-person backroom committee […]

  • BRICS Will Fail to Deliver Anti-imperialism

    BRICS Will Fail to Deliver Anti-imperialism

    Multipolarity — the idea that there are more than one decisive economic actors in the global economy — is an important fact. More than anything else, the rise of the People’s Republic of China demonstrates that fact. The size and rate of growth, along with the expansive Belt and Road Initiative, establishes that the PRC […]

  • Ragebait Governance

    Ragebait Governance

    Image information: “Trollface” by Me in ME is licensed under CC BY 2.0. Oxford University Press’ 2025 Word of the Year is “ragebait.” The term captures a defining feature of today’s information ecosystem: content engineered to provoke anger, boost engagement, and overwhelm our ability to think clearly. Fake news is a potent form of ragebait, […]

  • Trump, Infantino, and the FIFA Peace Prize

    He craves it, and, to some extent, his desire was satisfied. President Donald Trump did get a peace prize. Not the peace prize picked out by self-important Norwegian non-entities, but the inaugural curiosity of FIFA, an organisation famed for opacity, corruption and graft. What the critics missed in all of this was its sheer appositeness. […]

  • The Radical Left Meets the Extreme Right

    In the last decades, Democracy has become “just another word,” a political force that allowed Wall Street financiers, corporate elites, and global speculators to siphon a major portion of the world’s wealth into their bank accounts. Rejecting neo-liberalism and globalism, the radical left and extreme right grow in popularity, each with competing visions of freedom, […]

  • The Colby Review, AUKUS and Lopsided Commitments

    In one of his many cutting observations about the fallibility of politicians, H. L. Mencken had this to say about the practical sort: “It is his business to convince the mob (a) that it is confronted by some grave danger, some dreadful menace to its peace and security, and (b) that he can save it.” […]
