    The Explosive Growth of U.S. Militarism after the End of the Soviet Union

    Instead of there being the U.S.-Government-promised ‘peace dividend’ after the Soviet Union ended in 1991, there has been soaring militarism by the U.S., and also soaring profits for the American producers of war-weapons. Both the profits on this, and the escalation in America’s aggressiveness following after 1991, have been stunning. Whereas there were 53 “Instances […]

  • New “Antisemitism” Envoy’s Record of Anti-Palestinian Bigotry

    Who is Canada’s new antisemitism envoy? At a big apartheid lobby convention in Ottawa last week Justin Trudeau’s government announced its new Special Envoy on Preserving Holocaust Remembrance and Combatting Antisemitism. Deborah Lyons will replace Irwin Cotler in a position the Liberals created three years ago. Cotler used the platform and public funds allocated to the […]

  • The Day Guterres Became Relevant

    The relevance given to a UN Secretary-General is often judged by the degree of controversy caused.  In history, the most relevant are usually targeted.  Dag Hammarskjöld, refusing to remain a mere bauble of international office, was almost certainly murdered over his intervention in the Congo civil war in 1961.  The least relevant (who was that […]

  • Resolving Israel’s Dilemma

    Israel’s dilemma has been how to construct a racially pure state and extinguish the Palestinian presence in the country without the world noticing the genocide. It has found the solution and the world takes no notice. The world can entertain another solution and the world takes no notice. Want to rid the world of Hamas, […]

    Einstein Cited the Horrific Terrorist Massacre of Arabs and USA Origin of Killing in Palestine

    Excerpt of a Letter to the New York Times, December 4, 1948, from Albert Einstein and other prominent Jews. Attack on Arab Village A shocking example was their behavior in the Arab village of Deir Yassin. This village, off the main roads and surrounded by Jewish lands, had taken no part in the war, and […]

  • Justifying Collective Punishment: Israel’s Assault on Gaza

    Erroneous doctrines are current in the world, which declare a man culpable and responsible merely because he is a member or part of a determined country, without taking the trouble to seek or examine whether on his part there has been any personal sin of deed or omission. — Pope Pius XII, New York Times, […]

  • International Community Faces Acid Test on Gaza

    International Community Faces Acid Test on Gaza

    I never thought I’d live to see a British prime minister warmly embracing a war criminal and genocidal thug like Netanyahu, go swanning around a hotel (the King David) which was used as the Jerusalem headquarters of the British Mandate aúthority and blown up by Jewish terrorists in 1946, killing 91 and wounding 45, then […]

  • War on Gaza, 2023

    “Hamas terrorists”, “hostages”, “anti-Semitism”, Israeli “right of self-defense”, standing with Israel, upholding the “laws of war”, peace thru “negotiations”, “2-state solution”, end game?  What are the relevant facts?  How should recent events be evaluated? Double standard Western imperial states (US, Britain, France, Germany, et cetera) and their mainstream media report the conflict with a pro-Israel […]

    No Business as Usual at Rally in Solidarity with Gaza

    As people got off work on Thursday evening, October 19, the street in front of the Federal Building in San Francisco swelled with a spirited crowd chanting, “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.” An ocean of demonstrators had stopped traffic as Homeland Security police looked on and a helicopter hovered overhead. […]

  • Biden Returns Empty-handed, Except for a Huge Bill for the American Taxpayers

    If President Joe Biden were a pony, instead of a perennial warhorse (e.g., gung-ho for Bush/Cheney’s criminal destruction of Iraq), he would have his tail between his legs on his return from a one-day trip to Israel. He failed to achieve any immediate, critical objectives while the ongoing destruction of Gaza and the defenseless Palestinians […]
