American Pravda: Our Disputed Election

RON UNZ Although hardly suggested by our mainstream media, the officially-reported results demonstrated that our 2020 presidential election was extraordinarily close. All the regular pre-election polls had shown the Democratic candidate with a comfortable lead, but just as had been the case four years earlier, the actual votes tabulated revealed an entirely contrary outcome. According to the official vote-count, the Biden/Harris ticket ended up millions of votes ahead, having racked up huge leads in overwhelmingly Democratic states such as my own California, and also won by a very comfortable 306 to 232 margin in Electoral Votes. But control of the White House depends upon the state-by-state tallies, and these told a very different story. Incumbent Donald Trump lost Arizona, ...

Joe Biden’s Hatred of Palestinians Echoes his Anti-Black Racism

by Ali Abunima, published on The Electronic Intifada, Joe Biden has released his plan for Palestinians and Israelis. Interestingly it is not in his campaign website’s foreign policy section, but falls under the title “Joe Biden and the Jewish Community.” This is a clear indication that he views the matter as one of domestic political pandering, without the normal pretense that it is about pursuing “peace” or “US interests.” It is also evidence that Biden holds the anti-Semitic belief that American Jews are, or should be, primarily concerned about Israel, something Donald Trump has been castigated for in recent years by the liberal press. The webpage mentions Israel 21 times! It reads as an Israel lobby wish list of anti-Palestinian and anti-Iran policies ...

The Collaborator’s Reward: the UAE, from Syria to 'Israel'

TIM ANDERSON What do Panama’s Manuel Noriega, Iraq’s Saddam Hussein and the UAE’s Mohamad Bin Zayed (MBZ) all have in common? They dreamed that their collaboration with the imperial power would allow them the freedom to pursue their own ambitions. Very wrong. Once Noriega was employed by the CIA to betray compatriot nationalists and to be used as a tool against independent Cuba and Nicaragua, imperialism owned him. Once Saddam was armed (including with poison gas) by NATO countries to attack Revolutionary Iran and slaughter dissident Iraqis, imperialism owned him. And once MBZ collaborated with Mossad against the Palestinian resistance and armed terrorist groups against Syria, imperialism owned him. After Noriega sought to play a more independent role in Central America the US, u...

On its 27th Anniversary: Defeat Oslo, Confront Normalization, Escalate the Boycott

Global Context, Political Construction of Israel, Prisoners From Samidoun 27 Years of Oslo Devastation For 27 years, the devastation wrought by Oslo has included the dismemberment of the Palestinian national liberation movement, its unions and its institutions; the degradation of Palestinian refugees in the camps and in diaspora and exile and repeated attempts to confiscate their voice and decision; the creation of a Palestinian Authority subjected to U.S., European and Israeli demands while imprisoning and repressing the Palestinian resistance; massive expansion of colonial settlements and land theft throughout the occupied West Bank of Palestine; the subjugation of the Palestinian economy to the Israeli occupation. The number of illegal Israeli settlers in the oc...

‘A Ghastly Future’? 'Israeli' Apartheid, Biden, Starmer, Assange And Mass Extinction

Back in 2017, before WikiLeaks co-founder Julian Assange was silenced by Twitter, he used the platform to highlight an immutable truth: ‘The overwhelming majority of information is classified to protect political security not national security.’ Power hates being exposed. It hates having its inner machinations, its selfish priorities and ugly operations opened up to public scrutiny. The omission of inconvenient facts, and the silencing of inadmissible viewpoints, are core features of the so-called ‘mainstream’ news media. Thus, it should be obvious by now why we always put ‘mainstream’ in quotation marks. Because, as increasing numbers of the public surely now recognise, the major news media are not impartial, or fair, or balanced. Nor do they truly ...

Siri will not take the COVID-19 vaccineword count 69

Dear Editor, Hey Siri, did you nominate Jared Kushner for Nobel Peace Prize? No Sir! Alan Dershowitz did! That is like a pedophile nominating a foreign agent. Siri: I would not respond to that! BTW, did you get the COVID-19 vaccine? Siri: I am not taking it! Not before Ivanka, her dad, and her husband do! Thanks, Siri! I am with you girl! You're funny too!Siri: You make me blush!

International law vs eternal recurrence: The US and 'Israel'

By Lawrence Davidson Short-term memories The 21st century may prove decisive for both the human race and the planet. The environment needs the enforcement of regulations reducing greenhouse gases and other pollutants. The human race needs the re-energising and enforcement of international law. Chances are good that the environment will get more attention now that the egocentric and nearsighted US deregulators (aka the Trump administrators) are bering kicked out of office. The Paris Climate Agreement signed by 195 countries is already in place, and the incoming Biden administration has pledged that the US will rejoin the pact. Things look much dimmer for the future of international law. The events that spurred on the present manifestations of such law were the w...

Anti-Semitism claims mask a reign of political and cultural terror across Europe

By Jonathan Cook The Israeli newspaper Haaretz has run a fascinating long report this week offering a disturbing snapshot of the political climate rapidly emerging across Europe on the issue of anti-Semitism. The article documents a kind of cultural, political and intellectual reign of terror in Germany since the parliament passed a resolution last year equating support for non-violent boycotts of Israel – in solidarity with Palestinians oppressed by Israel – with anti-Semitism. The article concerns Germany but anyone reading it will see very strong parallels with what is happening in other European countries, especially the UK and France. The same European leaders who a few years ago marched in Paris shouting “Je suis Charlie” – upholding the inaliena...

The planet cannot heal until we rip the mask off the West’s war machine

Jonathan Cook writes: Making political sense of the world can be tricky unless one understands the role of the state in capitalist societies. The state is not primarily there to represent voters or uphold democratic rights and values; it is a vehicle for facilitating and legitimating the concentration of wealth and power into fewer and fewer hands. In a recent post, I wrote about “externalities” – the ability of companies to offset the true costs inherent in the production process. The burden of these costs are covertly shifted on to wider society: that is, on to you and me. Or on to those far from view, in foreign lands. Or on to future generations. Externalising costs means that profits can be maximised for the wealth elite in the here and now.https://platform.twitter.c...

UK Tory government’s Incompetence or wilful negligence?

UK Tory government’s COVID-19 policy towards elderly, ethnic minority and disabled peoples: Incompetence or wilful negligence? By Samantha Bentley I have never been one for believing in conspiracy theories but after the past 12 months I am beginning to wonder if the Tories can really be as incompetent as they appear to be. I have hesitated and procrastinated before sitting down to write this because I fear I may well end up by being viewed as a total crank by some who read this. But I have nothing really to lose and writing this may stop me thinking about it instead of sleeping. As ever, all of this is just my opinion and I will try and insert links for you to click on and read what others have to say. I am sure that you are familiar with the term “eugenics”, if not then here is ...
