In light of the brutal killing of Anna Yagi (age 39) in a hotel in Okinawa by a US soldier, I urge people to read Keiko Yonaha's essay for @tri_continental on the ugliness of the US-Japanese occupation of Okinawa, https://t.co/vYqI3bomyW
If you must read one essay this year (amongst those freely available on the Internet) this is the one. [And I say this fully cognizant of my claim's seriousness]

Hürmüz Boğazındaki enerji ve meta zincirindeki krizden sonra yeni rota senaryoları oluşturuluyor. Chatham House'un Orta Doğu Direktör Yardımcısı Körfez–Akdeniz–Avrupa arasında 'alternatif' ekonomik coğrafyaya ilişkin bir yazı yazmış. Buna göre Irak, Suriye ve Lübnan bu dönüşümde coğrafi olarak kritik hale geliyor. Yeni boru hatları, demiryolları ve dijital koridorların tek başına egemenlik yaratmayacağı, bunların işlemesi için devlet kapasitesinin, güvenlik ve kurumsal bütünlüğün sağlanması gerektiğini yazmış. Alternatif ekonomik coğrafya stratejisi doğrudan Hürmüz'ün yerine geçmeyecek ama Hürmüz'e bağımlılığı azaltacak. Türkiye'yi ilgilendiren bir boyutu da var; Ceyhan, Irak petrolünün Hürmüz dışına çıkarılmasında mevcut ve daha kurumsallaşmış bir altyapı sunuyor. https://t.co/v8Tc4VIUTS

Small teaching wins: in my Sociology of Work and Industry class at @mcgillu@McGillARTS , I start each lecture with a song related to the world of work. Usually students keep chatting as they get settled in and ready for class. 1/
I say this with the utmost seriousness as a scholar of international political economy: the rules-based international order is dead.
At the UN General Assembly, Trump, in very casual language, talks about annihilating another country. The room stays quiet. No collective protest. No formal objection.
And this goes far beyond rhetoric.
The US *has* bombed Iran, in clear violation of international law.
The US *has* kidnapped Venezuela's head of state and is in the process of looting the country's natural resources, in clear violation of international law.
The US *has* tightened its blockade on Cuba, in clear violation of international law.
Then there is, of course, the genocide in Gaza, for which the US has provided unconditional support.
After World War II, the US was one of the primary architects of a system meant to encourage global cooperation. But the US has consistently broken that system's rules to advance its imperial interests.
The system has therefore lost all its legitimacy.
"The important question," Joan Robinson asks in this 1980 talk, "is not whether the rate of inflation is high or low or can be brought under control but whether our generation will succeed in destroying the world." https://t.co/HsCXjRYUlq
