President Biden left behind an economy that was pretty healthy, conventionally speaking. Unemployment was low and wages were rising, but stubbornly high costs of living opened a door for Donald Trump’s political comeback.
America is threatening to bomb, with nuclear weapons, the nuclear infrastructure of Iran, a country of 90 million people, even as our own Intelligence agencies admit Iran doesn’t have a nuclear weapon.
The fervor is growing in DC, as it did in the lead up to Israel’s instigation of America’s war with Iraq. Few in DC are thinking about the moral or physical consequences of America using nuclear weapons:
Deaths of millions, radiation poisoning of hundreds of millions of people in countries around the world, poisoning of water supplies, agricultural lands, food supplies. Sharp increase in cancers and other diseases.
This is a doomsday scenario, one that President Trump campaigned against, when he said we are ending the era of endless wars.
He criticized Biden for bombing Yemen and now he is authorizing it doing it. President Trump advocated to end wars by speaking to others, not bombing them.
Like many presidents before him, he is being influenced by others with a political agenda that does not reflect America’s interests.
Hard-core Zionists led by Benjamin Netanyahu want the U.S. to bomb Iran, just as they urged America to attack Iraq.
New York City political and literary imprint Seven Stories Press acquired Columbus, Ohio’s 2 Dollar Radio.
I looked at Seven Stories Press’ list. I saw Huey Newton, Howard Zinn, Noam Chomsky, Ralph Nader, Angela Davis, Amnesty International, Phil Jackson, Kalle Lasn, Lydia Lunch, Karl Marx, Fidel Castro, Free Press’ contributor Greg Palast, Upton Sinclair, Kurt Vonnegut, Gary Webb, The Zapatista’s, Slavoj Zizek, Pacifica Radio’s Sonali Kolhalkar and The Weathermen.
I determined that Upton Sinclair and The Weathermen wouldn’t ruin the vegan food at Two Dollar Radio’s German Village location.
IF you like radio – Rising Up With Sonali airs from 92.7/ 98.3 wcrsfm.org weekdays 9-10am.
Seven Stories publishes Weather Underground’s Sing A Battle Song 1970-1974.
Weather Underground were a political community which used writings, speeches, and various explosions as opposition of oppressions of Black people, the Vietnam War, and the CIA’s dismantling of Democratic governments in Latin America which were empirical colonialist experiences of our government killing people.
BANGKOK, Thailand -- China is tightening control over Tibet and flexing its strategic roof of the world advantage by cyber-spying on the Dalai Lama's supporters "worldwide from Lhasa to London," opening Tibet's international airport to Singapore and Nepal, and building the world's biggest hydroelectric dam on a glacier-fed river.
China prizes resource-rich Tibet's lofty Himalayan heights which allow the People's Liberation Army to "look down" on India, China's regional rival, and provide a formidable buffer between Beijing and New Delhi.
The United Kingdom's GCHQ intelligence agency meanwhile is warning Tibetan and foreign activists, researchers, and supporters of the self-exiled 14th Dalai Lama that they are in danger of infection from "malicious actors" who created international surveillance malware identified as MOONSHINE and BADBAZAAR.
The British government's National Cyber Security Center (NCSC) which is part of the GCHQ, said Chinese also created snooping apps deceptively resembling WhatsApp and Skype which allow text, audio, and video.
BANGKOK, Thailand -- It's a long way from China's Great Wall to Egypt's pyramids, but for the first time Chinese and Egyptian warplanes are conducting a joint military exercise above the Nile River, extending Beijing's reach into the African continent.
Chinese fighter jets, Airborne Early Warning and Control planes, aerial refueling tankers, and helicopter gunships have been roaring across the sky alongside Egyptian Air Force warplanes, after taking off from Egypt's Wadi Abu Rish Air Base in the desert.
The China-Egypt Eagles of Civilization 2025 joint air force exercise began on April 19 and ends in early May, and is expected to strengthen Beijing's links with Africa's strongest military and a strategic U.S. ally.
China maintains an East African naval base in Djibouti on the Red Sea.
Cairo, hoping to diversify, is now welcoming Beijing's interest and possible Chinese weapons sales.
In commemoration of the May 4, 1970 killings of students on the Kent State University campus this is an encore presentation of a Free Press article written on May 6, 2007.
The 1970 killings by National Guardsmen of four students during a peaceful anti-war demonstration at Kent State University have now been shown to be cold-blooded, premeditated official murder. But the definitive proof of this monumental historic reality is not, apparently, worthy of significant analysis or comment in today’s mainstream media.
After 37 years of official denial and cover-up, tape-recorded evidence, that has existed for decades and has been in the possession of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), has finally been made public.
It proves what “conspiracy theorists” have argued since 1970—that there was a direct military order leading to the unprovoked assassination of unarmed students. Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) documents show collusion between Ohio Governor James A. Rhodes and the FBI that aimed to terrorize anti-war demonstrators and their protests that were raging throughout the nation.
