  • In Memoriam Berta Cáceres

    Ten years ago, Berta Cáceres, a campaigner against dams and mining projects that were displacing rural communities in Honduras, said that death threats had forced her to lead a ‘fugitive existence’. Most of the threats came from Desarrollos Energeticos SA (DESA), a company planning a hydroelectric project on the Gualcarque River, sacred to Cáceres’s Indigenous […]

  • Transparency of the Epstein files is Mere Bragging Unless There is Accountability

    Releasing the Epstein Files, without holding the exposed individuals and institutions accountable, will embolden rapists and pedophiles. Transparency alone is not justice. If we don’t hold these monsters accountable, we will have allowed them to brag to all the world that they got away with rape, pedophilia, and human trafficking. Transparency without accountability tells victims, […]

  • Fugitive Woman Act of 2026

    After the first paragraph of The Fugitive Slave Act of 1793 (included in the U.S. Constitution and revised in 1850, but not repealed until 1864), and “Saving America by Saving the Family Act: A Foundation for the Next 250 Years” by The Heritage Foundation, January 8, 2026 Be it enacted, &c., That, whenever the Executive […]

  • International Law Needs International Enforcement

    Donald Trump’s war of choice in the Middle East is but the latest indication that the system of international law―which provides guidelines for the behavior of nations in world affairs―is crumbling. In the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries, after thousands of years of violent international conflict, efforts to establish global norms for nations in connection […]

  • When Centering and Silencing Women No Longer Work

    The March 8, 2026, celebration of International Women’s Day feels loaded. A celebration born of the early twentieth-century women’s labor movement to bolster gender equality and reproductive rights while stopping violence and abuse against women feels hollow and in need of a massive resurgence, given current US politics. With the dissolution of women’s reproductive autonomy, […]

  • Failing Solidarity: How Cultural Prejudice Shapes Leftist Narratives on the War Against Iran

    Failing Solidarity: How Cultural Prejudice Shapes Leftist Narratives on the War Against Iran

    The so-called progressive political and media elites have cynically normalized the assassination of Iran’s leader, dressing up regime change as a moral necessity while denying Iranians the right to self-determination. In doing so, they expose a racist double standard that humanizes Israeli victims, dehumanizes Iranian lives, and buries the very principles of freedom, dignity and […]

  • Another US-Israel Sucker Punch

    A sucker punch is a punch delivered when the recipient of the punch is hit by surprise. As such a sucker punch indicates cowardice — that the sucker puncher did not have courage and decency to announce his intentions to engage in fisticuffs or battle. The current sneak attack (a so far failed attack) to […]

  • Not Forgetting the Victims: Club Epstein and Crimes Against Humanity

    Not Forgetting the Victims: Club Epstein and Crimes Against Humanity

    With a sex trafficking, flesh peddling empire of favours, logistics and the good time to be had by the powerful, the gigantic scale of Jeffrey Epstein’s criminal network continues to disturb. The least savoury digital library on the planet, available through the offices of the US Justice Department as the Epstein Library, is being combed […]

  • European Security Paradox and a World Without Order

    Paradox of Time and History and the Myth of New World Order America was not the superpower and European empires were more nationalists and aggressive when the 1857 Munich Conference held its assembly. Their delusional visions and priorities fell victim to their own vices and ruins, the consequential First World War and 2nd World War. […]

  • Precarious Invitations: Israel’s President Isaac Herzog’s Visit to Australia

    Things are getting rather ropey on the invitation of Israeli President Isaac Herzog to visit Australia on February 8. It came amidst the anguish following the Bondi Beach attacks of December 14, 2025 on attendees of a Hanukkah event by two gunmen, leaving 15 dead. Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese obviously thought it a sensible […]
