Alan Macleod, MintPress News - 1 day ago

The Diplomacy of No Diplomacy
Patrick Lawrence, null - 1 day ago
[image: undefined] A return to diplomacy: Let us hold this thought up to the light.

As of last week, it is the crisis over the agreement governing Iran’s nuclear programs that stands to demonstrate the truth of this judgment. On Sunday Tehran appeared to put the Biden administration on notice that it has two weeks to get serious about reentering diplomatic negotiations, after which tim...

RACE AND POSE: How did Trump ever reach the Oval?
<b>bob somerby</b>, the daily howler - 1 day ago
*WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 2021* *Nurse Ratched, attacked in Our Town: *Early last night, Brian Williams fought back, as is his right, against our controversial claim that he had been striking a pose. We claimed that he had been striking a pose with respect to Charles Blow's new book. Last night, right out of the gate, Williams implied that it just wasn't so. More on his rebuttal below. This morning, we watched the Morning Joe gang as they struck an array of poses. By 6:35 A.M., Joe had returned to his original stance. Once again, he said that, if the Capitol rioters had been blac...

Full marks for creativity to the artist who designed this brooch. A tip o' the hat to Phlegm Fatale for sending me the link. It's certainly original. I can think of all sorts of situations where a lady might wish to wear something like that, to display her contempt for proceedings, but in a non-verbal and artistic way. As one commenter said of it, "[I] want it implanted in my forehead". The Three Percenters logo has long since been branded as "racist" or "extremist", so it's fallen out of favor. Perhaps this might serve as the foundation for a suitable replacement? It co...

COVID-19 And Democrats’ Indifference Killed My Husband In Jail

In February 2020, my husband, Nickolas Lee, was incarcerated in Cook County Jail in Chicago. The judge didn’t offer him bail. So even though he was presumed innocent, he had to await his trial in jail. When the coronavirus seeped into the facility, he was sleeping in a dormitory with 50 other men, including those with active COVID-19 symptoms. Nick and the other men had no ability to social distance. Although the sheriff’s office claimed to be “clearly leaders in the Country on dealing with the pandemic [sic],” Nick was denied even basic sanitary products, like sanitizer or a mask....

Why A War In Yemen?
Terrace, PopularResistance.Org - 1 day ago
The Saudis decided to enter an ongoing civil war in Yemen in 2015 for several reasons. The two countries share a long border at the southern end of their peninsula. This length of this border is matched by Yemen’s coastline on the Arabian Sea, an access to ocean waters that Saudi Arabia does not have. Even more important is that the southeast corner of Yemen sits at the point where the Red Sea flows into the Arabian Sea through a very narrow passageway. This would enable the Saudis to control shipping through the Red Sea. Furthermore, Yemen has oil that generates revenue from con...
