  • UN Human Rights Council again supports US regime change plans for Nicaragua

    When the United Nations sets up a “commission of inquiry,” it can result in a powerful analysis of violations of human rights law, such as the one appointed in 2021 to examine Israel’s illegal occupation of Palestinian territories and its Apartheid practices. But other commissions can become political platforms aimed at demonizing a particular government […]

  • The Government Wants to Play God: What Does That Mean for Our Freedoms?

    The Government Wants to Play God: What Does That Mean for Our Freedoms?

    The government wants to play god. It wants the power to decide who lives or dies and whose rights are worthy of protection. Abortion may still be front and center in the power struggle between the Left and the Right over who has the right to decide—the government or the individual—when it comes to bodily […]

  • The Hidden Genocide in Ethiopia

    The Hidden Genocide in Ethiopia

    The Ethiopia of Abiy Ahmed and his Prosperity Party, is a dark and frightening place,  where anyone challenging the government are at risk of violence and arrest. People from the Amhara ethnic group are particularly targeted; killing of Amhara men, women and children is a daily occurrence in what constitutes a genocidal campaign of hate […]

  • Bishops Rapped over Feeble Response to Holy Land Genocide

    Are we seeing, at last, the beginnings of a revolution in the Anglican Church against its leaders’ cowardice over Israel’s genocide of Muslims and Christians in the Holy Land? On 31 October the Church of England House of Bishops issued a statement on Israel’s genocide against Palestinians which two clergymen in Cambridge found”profoundly inadequate as […]

  • Biden in November?

    Joe Biden and other Democrat politicians portray the upcoming Presidential election as a choice between fascism and democracy.  But Genocide Joe and most Congressional Democrats, like most Congressional Republicans, operate with an unadmitted mindset: that democratic rights are only for some people, and that oppressive fascistic rule is appropriate for certain others. Biden et al […]

  • Purgatorial Torments: Assange and the UK High Court

    What is it about British justice that has a certain rankness to it, notably when it comes to dealing with political charges?  The record is not good, and the ongoing sadistic carnival that is the prosecution (and persecution) of Julian Assange continues to provide meat for the table. Those supporting the WikiLeaks publisher, who faces […]

  • Rule by Criminals: When Dissidents Become Enemies of the State

    Rule by Criminals: When Dissidents Become Enemies of the State

    When exposing a crime is treated as committing a crime, you are being ruled by criminals. In the current governmental climate, obeying one’s conscience and speaking truth to the power of the police state can easily render you an “enemy of the state.” The government’s list of so-called “enemies of the state” is growing by […]

  • Assange’s ‘reprieve’ is another lie, hiding the real goal of keeping him endlessly locked up

    Assange’s ‘reprieve’ is another lie, hiding the real goal of keeping him endlessly locked up

    The interminable and abhorrent saga of Julian Assange’s incarceration for the crime of journalism continues. And once again, the headline news is a lie, one designed both to buy our passivity and to buy more time for the British and US establishments to keep the Wikileaks founder permanently disappeared from view. The Guardian – which […]

  • American Censorship is Bad for Peace

    I cannot sit back and allow the international communist conspiracy to sap and impurify our precious bodily fluids. — General Jack D. Ripper in Dr Strangelove Most people would agree that in any modern, wealthy, multicultural, free, non-colonized, democratic society, people have the right to know what is going on in their community. In fact, […]

  • Julian Assange and the Plea Nibble

    Be wary of what Washington offers in negotiations at the best of times.  The empire gives and takes when it can; the hegemon proffers and in equal measure withdraws offers it deems fit.  This is all well known to the legal team of WikiLeaks’ founder Julian Assange, who, the Wall Street Journal “exclusively” reveals, is […]
