the unbalanced evolution of homo sapiens

Geopolitical Economy Report Liberal feminist icon Gloria Steinem, a close ally of warmonger Hillary Clinton, has passed away at age 92. What many people don't know is that she was a CIA agent. Ben Norton explains how the CIA has cultivated a pro-imperialist, anti-communist "compatible left", who spread propaganda portraying the US empire as a "progressive" force, while the USA oppresses the Global South, waging nonstop wars and organizing countless coups d'etat.

We can almost say with certainty that Moscow responded openly, sending a clear message that such an action will be received as the end of any official or unofficial deal concerning the use of nuclear weapons. That is, in such a case, Russia will take as a given that it can use nuclear weapons against another country, even inside European territory. Concerning the explosive-laden drone detected at the Leipzig-Halle airport and linked to Russia, it seems that we are dealing with a slopily-designed false flag operation. The timing should not be considered accidental, as the  far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party appears to be winning in the polls with a clear lead.  The AfD calls for talks with Moscow, ending sanctions and cutting support for Ukraine, which is completely opposite to the policy of the current political esta...

The United States is interfering in the Brazilian presidential elections, pressuring the Brazilian electorate into voting for right-wing candidate Flavio Bolsonaro, the son of disgraced former president, Jair Bolsonaro. If that does not work and President Lula da Silva secures a fourth term in office, the groundwork is already being laid for a potential military intervention. From sanctions and economic warfare, to coaching influencers and journalists on how best to attack the left-wing government, the Trump administration is doing everything it can to overthrow Lula.

The Electronic Intifada Israel is destroying Gaza’s buildings and killing its people. But the assault also extends to the land itself, with Israel systematically demolishing what remains, crushing and removing rubble to erase evidence, conceal human remains and wipe away the physical traces of Palestinian life. Gaza’s underground landscape has a long history, from wells and agricultural infrastructure to the tunnels used for shelter, movement and resistance – what architect Eyal Weizman calls the “shadow of the political history on the surface.” Weizman, founder of Forensic Architecture and author of the new book Ungrounding: The Architecture of Genocide , discuss the intimate relationship between Palestinians in Gaza and the landscape, the history of its tunnels and how Israel is using architecture and environmental destruction as weapons of genocide.
