  • Are We Having an Election in November?

    With an important US presidential election — we are told — only months away, but one posing two repugnant, disheartening choices, it may be a good time to explore where we are and how we got here. What we can agree is that most of us, when asked, believe that things are going badly: an […]

  • The Myth of the Marshall Plan and US Imperialism

    The Myth of the Marshall Plan and US Imperialism

    One of the signal events of the post-World War II era– an event that helped shape the subsequent course of US imperialism– was the implementation of the European Recovery Act of 1948, the so-called Marshall Plan. Not only was the Marshall Plan a maneuver to tie Western Europe economically to the US– though Europe would […]

  • The Ugly Origins of Trump’s “America First” Policy

    People’s choice of words can be revealing.  That’s certainly the case with respect to one of Donald Trump’s favorite slogans, “America First.” In April 2016, Trump initially used the term in a campaign speech, proclaiming that “America First” would be “the major and overriding theme of my administration.”  The following year, in his inaugural address, […]

  • The Awesome Reality-Denial by Israel and Its Supporters

    The Awesome Reality-Denial by Israel and Its Supporters

    Holocaust-deniers say that the Holocaust didn’t exist even though, according to historian Hans Müller, Hitler proudly told the Pope’s representative, Archbishop Berning, on 26 April 1933, “I am doing what the Church has done for 1,500 years. I am simply finishing the job.” Furthermore, Hitler, in the privacy of his bunker (as transcribed there by […]

  • Guilt by Decryption

    At regular intervals the high representatives of the Allied Powers (West) congregate to commemorate the “kick-off” that led we are told to victory in Europe ending part of the hostilities in the Second World War. They meet on the often-cold beaches of Normandy, the western coastal region of France from which William the Conqueror led […]

  • The Second Coming of Literal Hitler

    The Second Coming of Literal Hitler

    So, the quadrennial simulation of democracy in the USA is getting underway, and personally, I couldn’t be happier. It’s been a challenging few years for unincorporated political satirists like myself. The roll-out of the new global-capitalist totalitarianism hasn’t been particularly funny. In fact, it has been extremely not funny. Squeezing a little humor out of […]

  • If You Ever Start Trusting U.S. Businessmen, Remember Henry Ford

    (The name Henry Ford came up in a comment thread recently so I thought it’d be helpful to offer some lost context.) Henry Ford, the autocratic magnate who despised unions, tyrannized workers, and fired any employee caught driving a competitor’s model, was also an outspoken anti-Semite. In 1918, he bought and ran a newspaper, The […]

  • D-Day = Disinformation Day

    June 6, 2023 marks 79 years since the fabled Allied invasion known as “D-Day.” Lost amid the annual self-congratulatory orgy is the minor detail that by the time of the D-Day invasion, the Soviets were engaging 80 percent of the German Army on the Eastern Front. Author Alexander Cockburn explained that WWII had already been […]

  • No WWII No Victory Parade in Moscow and No War in Ukraine Today If the West Had Not Rearmed Germany!

    May 9! Moscow Celebrates Victory Over  Nazi Germany’s Invasion, but with incomprehensibly little or no public condemnation of American corporations having earlier heavily rearmed Hitler’s Nazi Germany as British and French armies stood down in cooperation and in violation of the Versailles Treaty’s prohibition of German rearmament. With the world of the plundering Colonial Powers […]

  • The US Empire is Starting to Fall Apart

    The US Empire is Starting to Fall Apart

    In order to understand why, the nature of imperialism, and thus of all empires, needs first to be explained (especially because almost no one knows about this): Whereas a merely domestic dictatorship is no danger to other nations, an international dictatorship — or “empire” — is a danger to other nations, because every empire (i.e., […]
