  • The State of Our Nation No One’s Talking About

    The State of Our Nation No One’s Talking About

    Never has our future been more unpredictable, never have we depended so much on political forces that cannot be trusted to follow the rules of common sense and self-interest—forces that look like sheer insanity, if judged by the standards of other centuries. — Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism Day by day, tyranny is rising as […]

  • The Press Freedom Case of the Century

    The Press Freedom Case of the Century

    In March 2023, when my book on the case against Julian Assange was published, the detained WikiLeaks founder was waiting to find out if an appeals court in London would allow him to appeal extradition to the United States. Now, Guilty of Journalism: The Political Case Against Julian Assange [review] has been available on bookshelves for […]

  • The Campaign to Free Assange: Reflections on Night Falls

    The town hall meeting is the last throbbing reminder of the authentic demos.  People gather; debates held.  Views converge; others diverge.  Speakers are invited to stir the invitees, provoke the grey cells.  Till artificial intelligence banishes such gatherings, and the digital cosmos swallows us whole, cherish these events. And there was much to cherish about […]

  • Questions for the PSC (Palestine Solidarity Campaign)

    Mass marches, chanting and banner waving are essential to the campaign but it’s also important to challenge UK Government policy and actions through ALL democratic channels, especially now that Lord Walney recommends that political leaders ban their MPs from engaging with PSC and suchlike. Lord Walney, aka John Woodcock, is a former chairman of Labour […]

  • The Great Election Fraud: Manufactured Choices Make a Mockery of Our Republic

    The Great Election Fraud: Manufactured Choices Make a Mockery of Our Republic

    The U.S. Supreme Court was right to keep President Trump’s name on the ballot. The high court’s decree that the power to remove a federal candidate from the ballot under the Constitution’s “insurrectionist ban” rests with Congress, not the states, underscores the fact that in a representative democracy, the citizenry—not the courts, not the corporations, […]

  • An Approach to Mitigate Poverty and Racism

    Papers advancing critical race theory (CRT) had brought to light the historical intersection of race, society, and law. They also documented the benefits of Whites at the expense, suffering and death of most minorities. However, most conservatives and all right-of-center politicians denied that systemic racism exists. On top of that, the mainstream opinion was that […]

  • Technocensorship: When Corporations Serve As a Front for Government Censors

    Technocensorship: When Corporations Serve As a Front for Government Censors

    Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear. — Harry S. Truman […]

  • Peace Requires Freedom and Justice

    The mass slaughter of Palestinian civilians by Israel has shaken people throughout the world. It is a brutal, unfathomable expression of hate and violence; systemic genocide, long in the planning, that can only be described as an act of evil. Whilst the Israeli government and their henchmen are the principle perpetrators, they have been supported […]

  • Imperial Venality Defends Itself: Day Two of Julian Assange’s High Court Appeal

    On February 21, the Royal Courts of Justice hosted a second day of carnivalesque mockery regarding the appeal by lawyers representing an ill Julian Assange, whose publishing efforts are being impugned by the United States as having compromised the identities of informants while damaging national security.  Extradition awaits, only being postponed by rearguard actions such […]

  • Identifying Imperial Venality: Day One of Julian Assange’s High Court Appeal

    On February 20, it was clear that things were not going to be made easy for Julian Assange, the WikiLeaks founder who infuriated the US imperium, the national security establishment, and a stable of journalists upset that he had cut their ill-tended lawns.  He was too ill to attend what may well be the final […]
