  • European Security Paradox and a World Without Order

    Paradox of Time and History and the Myth of New World Order America was not the superpower and European empires were more nationalists and aggressive when the 1857 Munich Conference held its assembly. Their delusional visions and priorities fell victim to their own vices and ruins, the consequential First World War and 2nd World War. […]

  • A New Era of Political Mobilization Is Dawning

    Born in South Africa just a few years after the end of World War II and reared by activists in the anti-apartheid movement, I witnessed my parents’ struggle against fascism and its accompanying racism in both my country of birth and Europe. This created in me a sense of the fragility of democracy and fear […]

  • Precarious Invitations: Israel’s President Isaac Herzog’s Visit to Australia

    Things are getting rather ropey on the invitation of Israeli President Isaac Herzog to visit Australia on February 8. It came amidst the anguish following the Bondi Beach attacks of December 14, 2025 on attendees of a Hanukkah event by two gunmen, leaving 15 dead. Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese obviously thought it a sensible […]

  • Are Judges at the European Court of Human Rights Worse than Terrorists?

    Imagine a train hurtling out of control, its passengers’ lives in peril. One traveler reaches for the emergency brake, only for others to disable it, dooming the locomotive to crash into a crowded town and claim hundreds of lives. What charges would follow? Under European criminal law, culpability hinges on intent, context, and motive—ranging from […]

  • The Netherlands, Bonaire, and Climate Change Obligations

    It was another bead in the string of jurisprudence and case law in climate litigation. Previous sparkling examples include Urgenda Foundation (2019), KlimaSeniorinnen (2024) and the significant Advisory Opinion of the International Court of Justice delivered in July 2025. The District Court of The Hague, in its January 28 judgment regarding the effects of climate […]

  • NYS: Why Are Authoritarian Entities Needed to Create Charter Schools if They Are So Popular?

    NYS: Why Are Authoritarian Entities Needed to Create Charter Schools if They Are So Popular?

    The charter school industry has been operating in overdrive for several decades, trying desperately to convince everyone that charter schools are amazing, unassailable, and always in high demand. But if charter schools are marvelous and popular why have charter school promoters spent years using top-down heavy-handed entities comprised of unelected pro-privatization individuals to impose charter […]

  • Small Town Politics Imbued with Arrested Development, Retrograde Thinking and a Whole Lotta MAGA

    Small Town Politics Imbued with Arrested Development, Retrograde Thinking and a Whole Lotta MAGA

    Listen here to our talk, airing on my radio show, Finding Fringe: Voices from the Edge. It is a microsm of AmeriKKKa’s large and small communities. Heidi Lambert was voted into Waldport, Oregon’s volunteer mayoral position but was fired, then had to file a state ethics complaint, and now those fifth graders are running a […]

  • The Barr Doctrine, Noriega, and Maduro

    US President Donald Trump might leave an impression of violent novelty, at least for the leader of a nominal liberal democracy, soiling international relations with the gangster’s touch. This sense of iconoclasm is misplaced. While his conduct regarding the abduction of Nicolás Maduro certainly dumps mightily on the precepts of international law, legal advisors in […]

  • General Strike Can Stop Constitutional Traitors

    Oath to Support the Constitution: Us Constitution, Article VI, Clause 3 The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious […]

  • Artificial Intelligence, Crime and Prisons: Mahmood Revisits the Panopticon

    When does the rot start in a politician?  For some, it commences the moment election to office is confirmed.  Others need to become cabinet ministers before being wholly blighted.  UK Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood may provide a classic case study.  Given that security matters fall within her purview, it was probably too much to expect […]
