  • Israel’s Ongoing Demolition of Gaza

    What matters peace if it permits killing, maiming and destroying the infrastructure of a society supposedly once at war? This is the situation facing Gaza as the occupying Israeli forces go about their business making the Strip even more uninhabitable for the Palestinian residents, ensuring that that land will be vacated, either through force or […]

  • When Authoritarians Play Victim, It Is an Admission of Violent Intent

    When Authoritarians Play Victim, It Is an Admission of Violent Intent

    Francisco Goya’s The Third of May 1808 Fascists and various authoritarian personality types have a proclivity for playing the victim. Anyone who calls into question their brutal tactics is a terrorist/terrorist supporter who not only places them in mortal danger (i.e., As a rule, clad in body armor, heavily armed, and traveling in a belligerent […]

  • The Politics of Premature Adjudication: The Bondi Royal Commission

    Royal commissions are often held to confirm the obvious and squeak for modest change. They offer no binding remedies, have no compellable powers against the government of the day, and can, despite claiming to be independent, be susceptible to interest groups. They are also expensive, laborious, often lengthy, and serve as a pacifying agent, absorbing pressure and […]

  • Mock Strategy

    The crazy-quilt National Security Strategy released a few weeks back is a patchwork of declarations of intent, admonitions thrown at other countries and ad hominem statements of dubious validity. It lacks coherence or consistency – much less a theme, a central idea, or a concept that gives pattern to its incongruent parts. Clearly, the document is […]

  • Confronting Genocide with Civil Disobedience

    While the secret signals and surveillance facility at Pine Gap in Northern Australia, officially named the Joint Defence Facility Pine Gap (JDFPG) is billed as a joint affair between Australia and the United States, it is nothing of the sort. Just as offices direct the callow intern to make the coffee, Australian officials remain America’s […]

  • The (Over)Reach of Gangster Imperium, from Venezuela to Gaza

    The (Over)Reach of Gangster Imperium, from Venezuela to Gaza

    The Trump administration’s military aggression against the people of Venezuela proves the dictum: US/Western imperialism is gangsterism on an international level. The World has witnessed an attempted smash and grab/shakedown operation, and extortion racket perpetrated by a gangster state. Of course, Trump is going to strut and preen and sputter braggadocio about his exercise in […]

  • The Impending US Colonial Administration over Gaza, Palestine

    The Impending US Colonial Administration over Gaza, Palestine

    Behind the diplomatic language of ‘reconstruction’ and ‘stabilisation’, a new colonial framework for Gaza is being assembled. The following is why the latest Security Council resolution matters and what it sets in motion. On 17 November, the UN Security Council approved a draft resolution authored by the United States endorsing President Donald Trump’s plan for […]

  • “Self-Hating Jew, Kapo, What About Hamas?”

    “Self-Hating Jew, Kapo, What About Hamas?”

    Zionists have attempted to teach me the following: 1) Because I am Jewish, all Palestinians clamor and scheme to have me erased from the Earth. 2) There is no such entity as the Palestinian people. Damn convenient: The people you are perpetrating a genocide upon do not exist. Damn odd: The people you are erasing […]

  • A Tale of Colliding World Views

    A Tale of Colliding World Views

    In December, documents were released asserting two radically different political perspectives. They could not be more different. On December 4, under the President of the United States’ Seal, the White House published the administration’s 2025 National Security Strategy, expressing the government’s current evaluation of the global challenges facing it. The next day, December 5, the […]
