quantité colossale de résidences secondaires (y compris dans les nouvelles constructions) ce qui rend l'accès au logement impossible pour les jeunes et les travailleurs
banditisme à tous les niveaux de la société (mafia, racket, assassinats, contrôle d'une partie de l'économie...)
économie saisonnière dédiée quasi exclusivement au tourisme (zéro industrie, spéculation immobilière massive, quasi absence d'investissement dans l'agriculture...)
importation massive de biens plutôt que de chercher l'auto suffisance alimentaire, d'où quantité monstrueuse de déchets à gérer (ce que l'on fait catastrophiquement mal) et aussi abandon de notre agro-pastoralisme historique
cherté de la vie dans l'alimentaire, les services, l'immobilier, d'où un taux de pauvreté énorme et des inégalités de patrimoine toujours croissantes
plan d'urbanisme délirants qui abandonnent nos villages et construisent des immeubles hideux pour parquer les travailleurs
gestion coloniale par l'état français qui ne nous laisse aucune autonomie (d'où une apathie politique quasi totale des corses), nous met des CRS partout et ne reconnait pas spécificité de la langue Corse et de sa culture...
je pourrais continuer longtemps...
notre seule "chance" c'est d'être blancs et proches de la métropole donc mieux traités en tendance que les territoires outre-mer des antilles, la kanaky, mayotte etc (maigre consolation)
on partage beaucoup de leurs problèmes en "moins pire"

Samedi prochain, l'organisation du maintien de l'ordre sera très différente. On passe d'un dispositif policier statique et défensif, à un dispositif mobile et offensif.

🔴ALERTE INFO

🚨⚖️🇫🇷🇮🇱 Cinq ans d’inéligibilité avec exécution immédiate ont été requis ce mercredi soir contre le député #LFI Sébastien Delogu, poursuivi pour avoir révélé sur les réseaux sociaux des documents personnels d’Isidore Aragones, ancien président du #CRIF de Marseille, afin de dénoncer ses liens et son soutien à l’armée israélienne (Tsahal).

🇵🇸🇮🇱 👉 Ces documents évoquaient notamment son soutien moral et financier à cette armée, ainsi qu’un projet de visite d’une base militaire israélienne et de rencontre avec des soldats israéliens, alors que les massacres de civils de l’armée israélienne à #Gaza ont été qualifiés d’actes constitutifs de génocide par une commission d’enquête indépendante de l’ONU, Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, les ONG israéliennes B’Tselem et Physicians for Human Rights Israel, ainsi que l’Association internationale des chercheurs sur les génocides.

Comparutions immédiates : le prévenu a été appréhendé en marge d'un pillage de boutique avec un sac à dos vide. Le Procureur considère ça comme un "commencement d'exécution, suffisant pour caractériser une tentative de vol". La tentative est punie au même titre que la commission.

[Drop Site @DropSiteNews]

🚨 NEW: The U.S. and Israel are preparing to resume attacks on Iran, possibly before Tuesday’s Israeli elections, according to senior Iranian officials and a U.S. official who spoke to Drop Site. The White House denies plans for U.S. strikes before the midterms.

What each told Drop Site:

🔸 Gen. Mohsen Rezaei, Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, in an exclusive written interview with Drop Site

➤ Iran retains the capacity to launch missiles and drones at U.S. assets and would expand its targets: “Cables, data centers and artificial intelligence facilities could also come within range. If the conflict begins again, we will have a broader plan.”

➤ On previously unused capabilities: “We did not deploy all our capabilities in the previous stages… and we are also prepared for the next stage.”

➤ On Gulf states whose energy infrastructure could help sustain the U.S. blockade: “Those governments should not assume they can participate in economic warfare against Iran without putting themselves at risk.”

➤ On diplomacy: Iran has presented seven new conditions through intermediaries. “Until those conditions are fulfilled, Iran will neither reopen the strait nor return to negotiations.”

🔸 A senior Iranian official

➤ Tehran’s intelligence assessment sees a high likelihood that large-scale bombing begins before the Israeli vote on October 27. “Trump has sat on Iran’s proposed package for ending the war, and negotiations have stalled.”

➤ Tehran believes Israel would strike first, “destroying Iran’s newly deployed air defense systems, in order to open the path for American bombers,” while the U.S. would target defenses along the Strait of Hormuz and potentially attempt to seize an Iranian island.

➤ Trump may launch a “token” attack on an underground nuclear site such as Pickaxe Mountain to claim victory.

➤ “Should another war against Iran begin… their casualty figures will be ten times higher.”

🔸 A U.S. official

➤ Military assets are moving rapidly into place ahead of an expected green light from Trump, with CENTCOM chief Gen. Bradley Cooper among those pushing for renewed attacks.

➤ “CENTCOM is putting all the pieces into place to renew major combat operations.”

➤ The official doubted strikes would come before the Israeli vote, but said: “We did start Epic Fury without all our assets in place.”

➤ “Trump has backed off major combat operations against Iran or the Houthis [Ansarallah] seven times since July… At the last minute, he calls it off.”

🔸 White House Principal Deputy Press Secretary Anna Kelly

➤ “The United States will not be attacking Iran at any time prior to the midterm elections.”

The USS Theodore Roosevelt and the 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit are heading to the region, bringing approximately 10,000 additional sailors and Marines. Two other U.S. aircraft carriers are already in the Arabian Sea.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, trailing in the polls, claimed Wednesday without evidence that Iran is developing a nuclear weapon and said his directive to the Israeli military, Mossad and security agencies is “to topple the regime in Iran.”

Comment appelle-t-on un régime qui ignore le résultat des élections, pétitions, manifestations ; mutile des enfants protestant contre ses politiques ; ordonne aux renseignements de falsifier le réel pour calomnier un parti d'opposition ; et surveille par hélico la population ?

I’ve had the opportunity to view NAZA, the investigative documentary by Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor.

Much has already been written about it, so I’ll limit myself to one comment:

In 1979 Edward W. Said published his seminal essay, “Zionism from the Standpoint of Its Victims”. I think NAZA is best described as “Zionism from the Standpoint of Its Perpetrators".

If there is one documentary that encapsulates how Zionism relates to Palestinians, as individuals and as a people, this is it.

Things are looking very bad. Between Trump's coordination with Netanyahu - his bizarre endorsement of the Israeli war criminal and Heghseth's surprise visit there - troop movements, and perhaps most importantly, a non-starter American proposal, the likelihood of a third round of the war is reaching 90% in my assessment.

As I have pointed out for weeks, Trump pretends the Strait is open and wants to exchange the lifting of the blockade for Iran's 60% HEU instead of a reopening of the Strait.

It's understandable he wants a final deal right away. But it is unrealistic to expect a final deal without final-deal American compromises. As I understand it, Trump is not willing to offer that upfront, but wants Iran's 60% HEU shipped out upfront.

This won't work and will likely lead to a third round of the war - before the midterms and possibly before Israel's elections on the 27th.

This is a very important and relevant to today map 👇

Amid the current war, it's important to remember that Iran, like much of the Global South, endured more than a century of colonial domination, marked by devastating territorial losses, humiliating foreign interventions, and deeply unequal concessions imposed by imperialist powers.

This is indeed the broader historical backdrop to the current conflict, and why sovereignty remains such a deeply charged issue for many Iranians. The memory of national humiliation, exploitation, and foreign powers seeking to dictate Iran's fate is not easily erased.

Against this backdrop, Trump's threats and actions toward Iran have been especially striking: openly coveting its oil and territory, threatening its civilization, attacking critical civilian infrastructure, and not so covert efforts to arm ethnic minorities and destabilize the country.

These are not merely familiar instruments of coercive diplomacy. They evoke the methods and ambitions of the imperialist era.

And this is of course hardly confined to Iran. Trump's approach to Venezuela is perhaps the clearest illustration of the broader pattern, and of the kind of outcome he has appeared to seek in Iran.

It bears reminding that after Maduro's kidnapping, Washington this summer secured an extraordinary oil arrangement granting century-long concessions over 17 Venezuelan fields, an unprecedented U.S. government stake in the operator's parent company, and preferential rights to purchase its oil, including a huge amount production at cost regarding of constantly changing oil prices.

The sheer imbalance of these terms evokes the immensely unequal concessions imposed on weaker countries during the colonial era.

That such arrangements are being imposed in the 21st century is extraordinary, and their implications have received nowhere near the scrutiny they deserve.

In Iran, the methods of coercion have in fact been even more aggressive, with military force, threats against the country's very existence, and pressure on its territorial integrity. Whatever one thinks of the Islamic Republic, the historical parallels are difficult to ignore.

For Iranians who know their country's history, the specter of foreign domination is not an abstraction. It is a painful national memory, and one that Trump's conduct has brought forcefully back into the present.

The worst case scenario for Ukraine is unfolding: it's mired in a catastrophic war against a more powerful foe, that has cost it hundreds of thousands of lives and vital territory.

It wouldn't be in that war had Joe Biden and his bipartisan neocon allies, among other things, not dangled a NATO "open door" they had no intention of actually opening, and then opposed the peace deal that Ukraine negotiated with Russia in April 2022.

That's because, as former Zelensky spokesperson @IuliiaMendel argues, "the western political establishment would rather see Russia burn than Ukraine saved."

Someone who foresaw this disaster was your former boss Barack Obama, who resisted bipartisan neocon pressure to escalate in Ukraine.

You're among the Obama admin vets to challenge Biden's support for the Gaza genocide. Continuing to stand by his pet proxy war against Russia only extends the worst case scenario for Ukraine.
