War

When Amnesty International released its report “Israel’s Apartheid Against Palestinians: Cruel System of Domination and Crime Against Humanity” earlier the month, it was clearly part of a rapidly expanding trend.

To many observers in other countries who had wondered about the potential of tapping nonviolent power for defense, August 1968 was an eye-opener.

After the fall of the Soviet Union, there was a near universal understanding among political leaders that NATO expansion would be a foolish provocation against Russia. How naive we were to think the military-industrial complex would allow such sanity to prevail.

And, aside from the impotent imposing of economic sanctions on Russia and on its leaders and oligarch supporters, the U.S. has admitted there is nothing it or its NATO puppet states can do.

Continuing the war through economic means should be called what it is: a crime against humanity.

“A cruel military onslaught is engulfing millions. It will lead to untold suffering in Ukraine but also refugee flows in the region.”

Why isn't everyone panicking about nuclear war over Ukraine?

"If even a single 100-kiloton nuclear weapon exploded over the Kremlin, it could kill a quarter of a million people."

In recent days, media coverage of a possible summit between Joe Biden and Vladimir Putin has taken on almost wistful qualities, as though the horsemen of the apocalypse are already out of the barn.

Reaping what we sow.
