I am one who doesn't support Israeli Zionism.
Israel is a Terrorist State

As an American Im not sure how American leaders ever break that connection since the Balfour Declaration. Isreal as a non Nato partner. I see as a problem from the very beginning. Every American leader follows this path.The only solution I see is one that NEVER involved itself with Isreali State.

What us Americans are feeling everyday is obscene. Everyday we wonder how much more outrageous it can get.
Republicans are running the House, Senate and the Whitehouse. It's a Coup d'etat on America.
Now this demented man wants to interfere in other Countries continuely.

Can't thank you enough Tom!
Got to bluesky 8 months ago and found your reporting. You had the 'Signs' article by Ken Vallier .Your reporting whether you realize it or not has changed people's lives by learning things they would otherwise never know.
Be careful Saturday!

Yet another article that approaches the Taiwan issue purely in terms of military deterrence. It's a diplomatic problem that needs a diplomatic solution. But there's no US appetite for dealing with Beijing, so diplomacy is not in the cards. This only makes military conflict more likely.

I think this is correct. Our only chance to save democracy is millions of people in the street. Mass protests, boycotts and strikes until democracy wins.

Madagascar is in turmoil as a military faction stands by the recent youth-led anti-government protests.

Malagasy authorities need to undertake immediate and impartial investigations into the alleged killings and injuries to ensure accountability.

History shows the crimes of empire were later mirrored on European soil. Dehumanisation and militarised terror both seem normalised now, says Guardian columnist Owen Jones
