the unbalanced evolution of homo sapiens

globinfo freexchange   A report from early July at the Atlantic Council - one of the top US imperialist think tanks - website, confirms the long-term strategy of the US empire concerning Iran. Which in short, is to buy time in order to prepare for permanent war until regime change. Only a few excerpts from the report are more than enough for someone to understand the deeper plan, unfolding in plain sight. Furthermore, it reveals that the brains of Washington's warhawks are set up for permanent war and are completely incapable of thinking different alternatives that would not necessarily include more violence and destruction. As we read:                   More significantly, the regime, following its longstanding approach, has successfully created a “new normal” in which Iranian actions that would have previously been considered casus belli now have been redefined below the threshold of war. Every US president since Jimmy Carter and Rona...

The Jimmy Dore Show   Russell Dobular and Revolutionary Blackout Network’s Nick Cruse examine Donald Trump's negative comments about Communism, using them as a starting point for a broader debate comparing the economic and political systems of the United States and China. They argue that China's development, infrastructure, and anti-corruption policies have produced better outcomes for many citizens while criticizing inequality, healthcare, and public investment in the U.S. They also discuss the historical legacy of Mao Zedong, the Chinese Revolution, and the role of state planning in China's modernization, while reflecting on public opinion Russell observed during his travels. The conversation concludes by contrasting government intervention in the U.S. economy with China's model, arguing that both major parties increasingly rely on state involvement while serving different interests.

Useful Idiots   Abby Martin, journalist and filmmaker behind the Empire Files, Gaza Fights for Freedom, and Cuba After Castro, returns to Useful Idiots on the premiere day of her bold new film: Earth’s Greatest Enemy. The new documentary examines how the Pentagon, exempt from international climate agreements or emissions laws and rarely scrutinized in mainstream reporting, is the world’s single largest institutional polluter—spewing carbon, contaminating water, and scarring landscapes across the globe. Martin went deep into Washington as well as into the communities and ecosystems it destroyed in order to expose the truth about the US military and put pressure on its most powerful conspirators, from bought-out politicians like Nancy Pelosi to squirming army officials to corporate profiteers like Palantir’s Alex Karp. In this interview, Abby recounts the most shocking discoveries she and her team made while unraveling the story and filming where the military didn’t want them to be f...

Successive United Nations investigations have documented Israel's genocide, yet western regimes still refuse to name it or deliver the accountability their own institutions demand by Hossam Shaker Part 2 - Double standards It is entirely understandable that the allies of a regime of occupation and genocide, or those who consider themselves Israel's partners and friends, would avoid issuing a clear condemnation of conduct they themselves helped support and encourage, directly or indirectly, even if only through silence and denial of its atrocities. Throughout this prolonged season of horrors, the Israeli side has enjoyed military and political backing, as well as propagandistic cover, through carefully crafted formulas uttered by senior European and western officials. These amounted to evasive justifications for whatever war crimes and grave violations an occupying authority and its military forces might commit against a population left utterly exposed to continuous bombardment....
