Les dirigeants japonais de la Seconde Guerre mondiale sont nettement moins connus que leurs homologues allemands. La plupart des personnes ayant une connaissance superficielle de la guerre connaissent le noyau dur des dirigeants allemands autour d'Hitler - Himmler, Goering, Goebbels, Speer, et peut-être Heydrich et Bormann - ainsi que la pléiade de généraux allemands tels que Rommel, Manstein et Guderian.
Ramona Wadi, 21 mai 2026. - Le colonialisme déshumanise. Il est presque choquant que plusieurs dirigeants et ministres du monde entier aient commencé à en prendre conscience, après la diffusion d'une vidéo montrant le ministre israélien de la Sécurité nationale, Itamar Ben-Gvir, humiliant les militants de la Flottille mondiale Sumud, kidnappés. Cette vidéo a suscité une vive indignation sur les réseaux sociaux.

Set the scene. A massive military presence halfway around the world. American soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines on a wartime footing under a social media lockdown. Old and angry, the US President publicly threatens to youtube , and then does it.
In the proud tradition of another baby killer, Trump believes, as Madeleine Albright told Colin Powell 35 years ago, "What's the point of having this superb military you're always talking about, if we can't use it?"

Note: the only other examples I know of where a drug hurts non-users are birth control pills (which are designed to not break down) being recycled in certain municipal water supplies and shedding of the COVID-19 vaccines-something which theoretically should not be possible but nonetheless is happening and harming the more sensitive members of society.

Libertarian pundits act like they're working to keep their jobs, not establish liberty.
They hack at this or that state proposal or criminal act, maybe show how it robs or restricts us, then declare the people don't understand, will never understand because of relentless propaganda, and all is lost. Or maybe the more optimistic will say we have to eliminate this or that part of government, without saying how to do it.

The super-rich and their vassals are deeply invested in the system because it richly rewards them. They'll deploy everything they can - from the media to the 'security' forces - to prevent change
Two pronounced - and inverse - trends in western societies have long been observable, and yet they are rarely noticed or discussed.

During the administrations of Democrats Barack Obama and Joe Biden, how many times did we hear about how Republicans were the answer to those big-spending Democrats who were bankrupting our country with their out-of-control federal spending and debt ? Almost continuously ! If only American voters would put those fiscally responsible Republicans in charge of both houses of Congress and the presidency, we were repeatedly told, fiscal responsibility would return to the federal government.

Without having read the details and having no intention to do so, I am still wondering if The New York's Times' advice for Sunday May 17, about certain six things that will add joy to my day includes links to their other advice about "What can I do about see through white pants?" and "What's the best way to pack a suitcase?"
Just knowing they are on the case of these significant and most difficult matters reassures me that their wisdom on joy must be deep indeed.

The British House of Lords lost its power to mob democracy gradually, but the Parliament Act of 1911 turned the House of Lords into the Roman Senate under the Caesars by stripping the House of Lords of veto power over legislation. This eliminated the Lords' power over spending and taxation.
By 1894 the Lords' power was essentially gone. That year death duties were intentionally introduced in order to destroy the financial position of the British aristocracy, the Barons, Earls, Viscounts, and Dukes who had led the nation for centuries.

No matter which administration is in power in the US, its policies always boil down to unadulterated imperialism and aggression against the entire world. Until recently, Canada enjoyed a relatively comfortable position within this system, but now the hegemon's sword is gradually turning toward its vassals and satellite states.
To say that relations between the United States and Canada are in a downward spiral would be an understatement.

Le Bénin s'apprête à tourner définitivement l'une des pages les plus marquantes de son histoire politique contemporaine. À quelques jours de la prestation de serment du président élu Romuald Wadagni, programmée pour la fin mai 2026, l'heure est au grand inventaire pour le clan de Patrice Talon. Après une décennie complète passée à la tête de l'État sous la bannière de la "Rupture", l'équipe sortante d'un président qui confirme son départ à la retraite dresse un bilan qui suscite autant d'admiration pour sa rigueur économique que de discussions profondes sur l'évolution du modèle démocratique béninois.

Réunie à Abidjan les 15 et 16 mai, la Communauté Économique des États de l'Afrique de l'Ouest (CEDEAO) a insisté sur la nécessité de placer les femmes au centre des politiques de transition écologique. Cette orientation s'inscrit dans un contexte où les effets du changement climatique s'aggravent et où les inégalités sociales persistent dans la sous-région.
