The Coup This Time When the South Korean President declared martial law in December 2024, protesters immediately assembled, the National Assembly voted down the decree, and the protests grew to include a million people following through until impeachment, arrest, and a change of power were achieved. The Nation had an article last week called How to Stop Trump’s Coup. It brought lessons to the United States from South Korea.

Stealing Palestine, Stealing Enlightenment Yoav Litvin and Ilan Pappé’s Wired to Steal includes a history of European anti-Semitic horrors and the development of Zionist propaganda, propaganda that from the start drew on white-supremacy, eugenics, militarism, nationalism, eventually even Nazism, and the settler-colonial ploy of stealing territory, getting oneself attacked, and then labeling and understanding genocidal violence as “defense.”

The One Big Peace Conference and Open Borders Approximately once a day for forever, so approximately 365 times a year, someone proposes to me the same good idea. Hey, they suggest, I’d like to organize one big peace conference and create one big peace movement to unite everyone and be stronger instead of fractured.

Which Way Is Peace? We haven't yet gotten to the point where courage in a politician is understood by everybody as standing up to the weapons dealers and warmongers and saying No I won't do war.

The Combination of Nuclear Energy and War Threatens Us All Any place with nuclear power facilities is not disarmed. It’s simply pointing the threat directly at itself.

10 Reasons for Public Executions There was no public demand that led to the U.S. military announcing that it would publicly execute someone on livestreamed video (a list of advertisers, if any, during the broadcast has not been released — add your guesses below). No polling favored it. No fashion for being like Saudi Arabia was afloat. Outside of Supreme Court Justices, a return to the 18th century is generally not in vogue. So why do it? I can guess ...

Trump's Offer to Sell Weapons to China Is Wonderful So, phone the neighbors, wake the kids, and pinch the lazy new panda bears because a peace dividend is surely on the way if enough people find out that Trump has tried to sell China weapons and think about it for a few seconds and do something about it for a few days. That last bit is the sticking point I know. But let's try!

Silence = Death When important, serious, respectable people wouldn't even mention that AIDS was killing on a major scale, their silence meant that not enough would be done to stop it. I bring this up because Trump wants Congress to put 77.66% of federal discretionary spending into wars, and the vast majority, if not every single member, of Congress has not even once said so. Likewise virtually every media outlet. The same goes for . . .

Even a Radioactive Time Bomb Is Right Twice a Presidential Term By refusing to take part in waging war on the people of Iran, the South Korean government obtained something else favored by many of the people of South Korea: at long last a reduction in U.S. war rehearsals and hostility toward North Korea. U.S. media outlets panicked. How could Trump abandon his duty to keep the Korean peninsula divided and the risk of nuclear apocalypse respectably high? U.S. comedians were thrilled: . . .

The Wars Are Still Based on Lies To our great credit, the current war on Iran is less popular faster than wars of the past. It took a year and a half for a majority to say that the war on Afghanistan or the war on Iraq should not have been started, and even then you didn't have a majority for ending each of those wars.

Deeming Nationalism Infantile Isn't "Hating America" Wow, U.S. social media is suffering a pandemic of nationalism just in time for a celebration of a declaration of the crimes and abuses of King George, a laundry list of horrors that pale beside the accomplishments of any recent U.S. president -- the quaint abuses of his royal highness of the blue piss who in reality was more progressive and less tyrannical than your average 21st century prime minister.

Iran Deserves Better When Iran moved toward a decent democratic government, the UK, U.S., and oil barons destroyed it and put in place a horrendously brutal dictatorship. When Iranians overthrew that dictatorship, religious lunatics seized power and treated the people of Iran so cruelly for so long that many of them longed for that dictatorship -- or the CIA-owned son thereof -- and still do.
