by Binoy Kampmark / March 4th, 2023 Over the last week or so, Australian politicians and representatives of the university sector got busy pressing flesh in India, hoping to open avenues that have largely remained aspirational. It was timed to coincide with G20 talks in New Delhi, which has seen a flurry of contentious meetings traversing security, economics and education, all taking place in the shadow of the Ukraine War. A starring outcome of the various discussions was an agreement between Canberra and New Delhi to ensure the mutual recognition of qualifications.

by Gary Olson / January 12th, 2023 China offers a threatening alternative model of development that is non-capitalist, non-Western, and non-colonial. As such, it undermines the West's neocolonial domination of the Third World and its debt-trap-based forced underdevelopment of subverience and exploitation. — K.T.

Luckily, many countries around the world do not subscribe to this endemic western hypocrisy. ‘The Conference on the Establishment of a Middle East Zone Free of Nuclear Weapons and Other Weapons of Mass Destruction' was held between November 14-18, with the sole purpose of creating new standards of accountability that, as should have always been the case, be applied equally to all Middle Eastern countries.

(I didn't realize it was 'part 1' but I posted this last week. It's short so please give it a look before continuing.) Part 2 was inspired by comments that appeared after the first post. A nurse named Laura V. laid out the details of life in an inhuman digital healthcare state. Here's some of what Laura said: 'I'm a nurse and there has been a steady progression to automated, patient-directed, convenience ‘healthcare' for well over decade — minute clinics, telehealth, and the like.

Palestine's Supporters Can Gain Control of the Narrativeby Dan Lieberman / January 3rd, 2023 In community devastation, destruction of the Palestinian people ranks with the most severe. A group of foreign people invaded a land, seized property and resources from native people, expelled a mass of the population, and oppressed and controlled the remaining inhabitants. After decades of suffering under extreme oppression, with no end in sight, with oppressors who could live as well in other places, the destruction of the Palestinian people has unique qualities that defy rational thought.

Bank Runs, Bail-Ins and Systemic Risk by Ellen Brown / February 25th, 2023 Financial podcasts have been featuring ominous headlines lately along the lines of ' Your Bank Can Legally Seize Your Money ' and ' Banks Can STEAL Your Money?! Here's How! ' The reference is to 'bail-ins:' the provision under the 2010 Dodd-Frank Act allowing Systemically Important Financial Institutions (SIFIs, basically the biggest banks) to bail in or expropriate their creditors' money in the event of insolvency. The problem is that depositors are classed as 'creditors.

by Redacted / March 12th, 2023 The House of Representatives voted not to end the U.S. occupation of Syria on Wednesday. This is disappointing but not surprising. Although all is not lost, 103 leaders voted for it with 56 Democrats joining 47 Republicans to vote in favor of the bill, showing that there is at least some appetite for peace. Opponents of the bill said that they feared that troop withdrawal would revive terrorist groups n the region. Which is a good joke because the U.S. has backed terrorists groups in the region by supporting the al-Qaeda affiliated al-Nusra since the Obama administration.

On October 14th, Geo TV in Islamabad Pakistan headlined 'Imran Khan to be hung upside down if he launches long march: Rana Sanaullah,' and reported that Imran Khan was being threatened now with execution if he would actually hold his promised march protesting the coup that had forced him out.
