African Liberation Day: Imamu Amiri Baraka, 1972Should African Liberation Day be a day of celebration or mourning? Since the first African Liberation Day celebrations were held in Washington, Toronto, and Washington, DC., May 27, 1972, most of the African continent broke from colonial rule and became politically independent. But the enemies of African people launched a counter revolutionary war against self-determination immediately after independence. African sovereignty came under attack from a vindictive neocolonialism that would later be intensified by neoliberalism. This neocolonialism would not be successful, however, if ... read more

Quad Summit In Tokyo Ramps Up Confrontation With ChinaYesterday’s face-to-face meeting in Tokyo of the leaders of the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue (Quad) marked a sharp and systemic stepping up of the US-led war preparations against China.

Europe: A Crossroads Of Neoliberalism And The Aspirations Of The People“Neither war that destroys us, nor peace that oppresses us”: This historic anti-war slogan of the Spanish feminist movement holds one of the fundamental keys to building a horizon of peace. It claims that peace is not just a ceasefire, nor is it surrender to or silence before those who impose their wars on others. Rather, peace is the building of a foundation for fostering relations based on mutual respect and cooperation. Such an idea is neither naïve nor impossible. Where there’s a will, there’s a way. Building a new path based on a lasting peace is the only possible alternativ... read more

More safety for the schools to repel intrudersI got a driver's license in 1956 and didn't have an accident, not even a fender bender, until 2021. That same accident which left me bruised and frightened, probably would have killed me in 1956. In fact, auto fatalities are half what they were in 1956--23.7 per 100,000 to 11.67 in 2019 (2020 and 2021 were bumped up due to Covid and are outliers). Cars are half as dangerous, despite the millions of more vehicles on the road and silly teen-agers behind the wheel. Cars, roads and bridges are much, much safer--I was driving a 22 year old SUV that had airbags (my only injuries), seat be... read more

Douglas Macgregor has implied that the war in Ukraine may finally end when downward-spiraling economic collapse in the United States and Europe makes it politically impossible for the Biden administration to continue to prolong it, or for continental Europeans to support it. He might have added, “or for the British to continue to provoke it.” read more

Being a political and social issue blogger, it just didn't seem right to let this pass another day without even mentioning it. Salvador Ramos, the shooter, murdered 19 small children and two adults after shooting and critically injuring his grandmother. The parallels between Uvalde and Sandy Hook are startling.

Chilcot Inquiry Section 4.4 The Search For WMD
Tony Blair had been convinced since the 1990s that Iraq still had WMD. When none was found after the 2003 invasion it challenged not only the justification for the war but Blair’s entire mindset about Saddam Hussein. London followed the same script as the United States shifting from claims that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction to Saddam wanting them. The fact that the latter would not make Baghdad a threat was never mentioned as Downing Street was thrown on the defensive. During the invasion and the month afterward there were several stories in the media about WMD. On Apri... read more

How Policymakers Can Build a Better Doomsday ClockA doomsday clock. (Macro.biolog, https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Doomsday_Clock_23-58.jpg) Vladimir Putin’s nuclear saber-rattling during the invasion of Ukraine has many people wondering: How likely is this crisis to escalate to nuclear war? The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists’s famous Doomsday Clock has a simple and frightening answer: Humanity is mere seconds away from “midnight,” and the risk of nuclear war is unacceptably high.
