Epstein Files: Don’t Hold Your Breath
I have noticed supposed left organizations considering the Epstein files their secret weapon and naively pouring energy into advocating release. It is a doomed strategy. Is it insightful that Trump has not already released the Epstein Files? Of course it is, partially because it indicates the state is probably hiding something, but more so because […]

Worlds Extinguished: Hostage Returns, Central Casting and the Gaza Ceasefire
Depending on which source you consult, the twenty-point peace plan of President Donald Trump for securing peace in Gaza shows much exultance and extravagant omission. The exultance was initially focused on the return of the hostages. It then shifted to the broader strategic goals of the various parties. Commentary on this point, even as the […]

Recruiting New Spies via Internet
It’s no secret that almost every state conducts intelligence both at home and abroad. However, if several decades ago this activity was in the sidelines, the emergence and development of the Internet and information technologies lifted the veil on espionage and empowered intelligence with new, although sometimes controversial, capabilities.

Defending Venezuela from U.S. Imperialism
Steve Ellner, one of my go-to sources on Venezuela, cautions that although the Maduro government has unquestionable shortcomings and is not above criticism, the left’s priority today shouldn’t be purity tests. It should be about the struggle against US imperialism, as it invokes the Monroe Doctrine and evidence-free, “narco-terrorist” narratives on behalf of regime change […]

Outsized and Eccentric: The Farce Behind the Nobel Peace Prize
The fuss about the Nobel Peace Prize has always been excessively outsized to its relevance. Like most prizes, the panel is bound to have its treasure trove of prejudices and eccentricities in reaching any decision. Thin resumes have swayed the Norwegian committee to acts of dottiness. Surprising moments of dark humor have made an appearance […]

The Great Whitewashing of American History Orchestrated by Generalisimo Donald Trump
Image created by Perlinator. The historian and author Gore Vidal once called the United States the “United States of Amnesia.” Nowhere is that amnesia more weaponized than in the Trump-era battle over American history. Among the many fronts in Trump’s culture wars, perhaps none is more consequential than his administration’s effort to whitewash the nation’s […]
