Alain Soral: “Marx ****s Hitler”

NOVANEWS GUILLAUME DUROCHER  I was recently struck by a video by the French civic nationalist and anti-Zionist Alain Soral. I have to personally credit Soral’s videos, among other things, for breaking the mainstream conditioning which had prevented me from thinking outside of the liberal-egalitarian sandbox, so to speak. Hence, while I am quite critical of important parts of Soral’s thought, I am not inclined to be harsh. Soral’s thought is hard to pin down (see my Alain Soral FAQ, written some years ago, but which I would say remains just as valid), being to some extent the product more of a confrontational and provocative style and a deep intellectual culture, than a coherent system. If I were to pin Soral down: the Franco-centric chauvinism of Maurras and the acerbic criticism of...

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights at 70: Time to De-Colonize Human Rights!

NOVANEWS By Ajamu BarakaThe UDHR was the first major instrument produced by the United Nations (UN), an institution itself created at the end of the Second World War. Its creation was hailed as a breakthrough that would give institutional substance to the pledge by member states to promote international cooperation, commit to peaceful relations among states and respect human rights and fundamental freedoms. Read more...

It rather represents an attack on all scholars who dare question the official account on 9/11, including myself. Read more... US Senate Resolution Potentially Changes Middle East Dynamics By James M.

Devastation by Fire: DIRECTED ENERGY WEAPONS Being Used in Plain Sight…?

NOVANEWS The burning up of so much of California over a short period of time (in 2017 and now in 2018) has amounted to what has been called the most destructive ‘wildfire’ event in the state’s history. The scale of the damage has been enormous, as well as the disruption to people’s lives, the loss of homes and property, and what will amount to drastic alterations to infrastructure and demographics. The raging fires and the destruction left in their wake have also been met with conspiracy theories and accusations of the true nature of the catastrophe being covered up. I’m not in the habit of always assuming or thinking everything that goes on is a conspiracy with some hidden agenda. I’m still of the school that, sometimes, Shit Just Happens. Certainly, when seemingly natural disasters u...

Sharing is key to a new economic and democratic order

NOVANEWS Graham Peebles writes: In order to meet the colossal challenges of the time, fundamental change to the socio-economic order is needed. The environmental catastrophe is the major issue, together with armed conflict, potentially nuclear. Both threaten the survival of humanity and the planet, and both are widely ignored by the men and women of power, whose short-term approach, obsession with the economy, and a nationalistic introspective view of the world is leading us to the precipice of disaster. If humanity is to survive these interconnected crises and overcome other crucial challenges, including poverty, social injustice and the displacement of people, a totally new vision of the way society functions is required. At the root of much if not all of the chaos is the socio-economi...

“Class War Conservatism” and Resistance to the Doug Ford Tories in Ontario

NOVANEWS By Jeff Shantz The Bullet The Fordist Conservative government in Ontario presents a pressing challenge to politics as usual and raises the stakes for working class resistance. Almost immediately upon taking office Doug Ford and his Tory regime have gone on an offensive targeting diverse segments of the working class. In their aggressive actions they have shown themselves to be unabashed proponents of a class war conservatism in the mold of Margaret Thatcher, Ronald Reagan, and Mike Harris, if in a particularly crass version. Well, sometimes you get the counsel you need, when you need it. So it is that I found myself reading Ralph Miliband’s old article “Class War Conservatism” right as Doug Ford was elected in Ontario. I lived for years in a Toronto riding bordering h...

The Coming Military Vision of State Censorship

NOVANEWS By: TruePublica   At TruePublica, we have continually warned that in Britain the government is becoming ever more authoritarian with its underhand attack on civil liberty and human rights. We have warned about the illegality of mass surveillance and state intrusion into the privacy of every citizen. We have warned about sweeping new police powers, the use of secret courts and new laws designed to protect the state and corporations from the scrutiny and criticisms of the people and we have warned that democracy in Britain is being eroded in favour of a political elite whose power they want entrenched. This is demonstrated no better than recent events in a meeting held in Austalia of new state censorship rules. A key meeting of cabinet members from the US-led Five Eyes (UK...

Ron Unz Discusses His Recent Game-Changing, Taboo-Busting Articles About Jewish Power and History

NOVANEWS "(The) articles (generated) nearly half a million page views of readership over that short period ...  Even more remarkably, (they) provoked nearly 13,000 comments, totaling an astonishing 1.8 million words of text." Ron Unz  THE JEWISH QUESTION The author is the founder and editor of The Unz Review, a leading conservative American political website. He is also a Silicon Valley entrepreneur, and a one-time candidate for the governor of California.

I’ve recently taken a bit of a break after three long months of writing in my American Pravda series...

Comrade Harpal Salute

NOVANEWS Dear Comrades of the CPGB-ML, Could please forward this letter to Comrade Harpal Brar. With much appreciation, Dear Comrade Harpal, I recently read of your decision to step down as Chairman of the CPGB-ML. I am writing to you to express my appreciation of the outstanding job you have achieved as prestigious Chairman of the CPGB-ML and your outstanding work in the science of Marxism-Leninism over many decades which have been of inestimable value to the British communist and proletarian movement. With the formation of the Communist Party of Great Britain (Marxist Leninist) in 2004 the British communist/proletarian struggle underwent a qualitative change. Like in my home country, Britain had been subjected to years of bankruptcy and distortion by multitudes of revisionist/Trot...

Peace: the priority of our time

NOVANEWS Graham Peebles writes: For as long as anyone can remember violence and conflict have been part of daily life: humanity appears incapable of living peacefully together. There are the brutal cries of war, the vile acts of terror, homicides, rapes and assaults of all kinds. People everywhere long for an end to such conflicts, and are crying out for peace and understanding, to live in a just world free from fear. Creating a world at peace not only demands putting an end to all forms of armed brutality, but also entails building peace within communities, in the workplace, educational institutions and the home, in the natural environment and, most importantly, it requires the inculcation of harmony within all of us. Each of these areas of living are interconnected; the prevailing cond...

What Does It Mean to Celebrate International Peace Day?

NOVANEWS by BRAD EVANS From “State of Disappearance” series (2018) by Chantal Meza. We know the world continues to be dangerous. We know our cities are continued targets for indiscriminate attacks. We know we continue to sell arms to brutal dictators on the basis that if we don’t others will. We know we continue to invest heavily in military research and development because that’s just the established order of things. We know there are groups in the world like Islamic State, which revel in the most abhorrent and intimately barbaric acts of killing upon anybody who doesn’t fit into their dystopian visions. We know that unscrupulous leaders wish to develop weapons of mass destruction for their own protections and to blackmail their neighbors – or worse to unleash their potential. We ...
