Dec. 23—Countries that have committed great wrongs have had to undergo a process of redemption to regain their moral status in the community of nations. Germany following World War II and South Africa following apartheid come to mind. The United States, by standing essentially alone in the world in support of the barbaric destruction of Gaza by Israel, is consigning itself to an infamy that will outlast—by how long, we wonder—the United States’ profoundly necessary reconciliation.
Dec. 7—The barbaric, agonizing destruction of Gaza by an Israeli government with no long-term thought to its own interests, calls upon us all to demand an end to geopolitics and its replacement by a paradigm of international and human affairs informed by love for the uniquely creative potential of the human individual.
Nov. 28—The temporary truce continues to hold in Israel-Palestine, with the ongoing release of Israelis and Palestinians, and the continuing flow of supplies. But what does the future hold, and who is responsible for shaping it?
Nov. 23—The Anglo-American empire, in efforts to continue to exert outsized control over world affairs, has adopted the geopolitical outlook of preventing cooperative development among nations, especially in Eurasia. This is the context for the intended explosion of the Israel-Gaza conflict into a broader regional war, to target the expansion of the BRICS process and the potential for regional integration in the mode of the LaRouche movement-proposed World Land-Bridge.
Nov. 19—The doors to a new era of history are being opened by a flurry of political activism, diplomatic work, and planning for a new paradigm. In California, youthful activists demanding a ceasefire in Gaza stormed the annual California convention of the Democratic Party, shutting down the event for the rest of the day.
Nov. 18—As the world gazes in horror at the steady march of destruction in Gaza, while an increasing number of leaders, political and otherwise, add their voices to the chorus demanding ceasefire and peace, we must remember: Human history is not inevitable.
Oct. 17—Although decisions are more commonly justified by reference to necessities imposed by the past than by the demands of what is to come, justice can be achieved only with reference to the future. Responsibility is more easily assigned than taken, but the current terrifying crisis calls us to take responsibility for installing a new security and development architecture for the world.
Oct. 14—Who is responsible for the carnage now taking place in Southwest Asia? Was it Hamas, by perpetrating a violent attack? Was it Israel, by effectively incarcerating millions of Palestinians for years?
Oct. 1—It takes a strong stomach, and a stronger conviction to act, to look directly at the evil of the Anglo-American imperium, which has again demonstrated its willingness—no, its desire—to threaten nuclear extermination of the human race rather than give up its hegemony. Grant Shapps, the U.K.’s Secretary of State for Defense, told the Telegraph that he had held talks with Army leaders about moving “more training and production” of military equipment into Ukraine.
