“No Kings” — Another Chapter in the Quest for an Empire without an Emperor
There are many hyped “No Kings” protests this weekend. They seem fairly clearly a creation of the DNC or some appendage of it. They reflect a wretched sentiment I criticized back in 2017 — how many were “In Search of an Empire without an Emperor”: When Trump uses military violence in Yemen or Syria, […]

The West’s Dehumanization Of Arabs Is Completely Unforgivable
In October 2024, a Lebanese writer named Lina Mounzer wrote, “ask any Arab what the most painful realization of the last year has been and it is this: that we have discovered the extent of our dehumanization to such a degree that it’s impossible to function in the world in the same way.” I’ve thought […]

Thoughts on the Ceasefire News

Israel and the Global Sumud Flotilla
Showing that cloddishness that we have come to expect from them, Israel’s detention of the activists on the Global Sumud Flotilla (GSF) was a coarse and violent affair. Having been intercepted in international waters on route to Gaza to break the Israeli-imposed blockade, the 470 or so activists, hailing from some fifty countries travelling on […]
