We’ve come such a long way. Imagine, back in 1980 our leaders had to insist that ours was a zone of peace… that we didn’t want military interventions… that we didn’t like the Monroe Doctrine.
…Life was so backward and dangerous in those old days.
With the ongoing genocide in Palestine, the recent incursions in Syria and Lebanon, and now the alleged “preemptive” attack against Iran, the State of Israel under PM Netanyahu is unmistakably a rogue state, and should be treated as such. He is spoiling for a regional war.
14 years after the US helped to orchestrate regime change in Libya, and the murder of Gadaffi, the US is issuing travel bans on all Libyans. Seems like that change worked out well for all concerned…
After the ambush that was pulled on Cyril Ramaphosa, on the heels of all the attacks and insults leveled against other heads of gov’t in front of the media, who’s really so crazy as to accept the next Oval Office invite?

Yes it’s terrible that Trump reversed Biden’s decision to remove Cuba from the list of sponsors of terrorism. But the real question is why did Biden wait ‘til his last day in office to do it? How many Cubans suffered the last 4 years because he was playing South Florida politics?
• The violation of Ukrainian sovereignty is a blatant violation of international law.
• The violations of Syrian, Yemeni, Iranian, and Lebanese sovereignty are blatant violations of international law.
• The genocide in Palestine is a blatant violation of international law.
Over the last year, Netanyahu’s government in Israel has killed people in Gaza, the West Bank, Syria, Yemen, Iran and Lebanon.
Yet the US media keeps fretting that this could become a “wider regional conflict.”
Huh?
Is that when those countries start fighting back in earnest?
“They’re coming from the Congo, they’re coming from Africa, they’re coming from the Middle East, they’re coming from all over the world, Asia… and ya gotta get rid of these people!”
This is some of the most un-American shit I've ever heard. Shame on those applauding it.
China’s attempt to isolate 24 million Taiwanese citizens by distorting UN Resolution 2758 must be stopped.
