How To Waste Two Trillion Dollars
By Eric S. Margolis
May 4, 2024
Brown University's cost of the Afghan war project just concluded that America's longest war cost an estimated $US 2.2 trillion dollars - that's 'trillion dollars."
If we add in George W. Bush's fake 'war on terror,' Brown's scholars estimate that the cost rises to US $8 trillion!
Most of this huge amount was financed by loans, not through taxes. Meaning that every dollar spent must be paid for by borrowing.

These people have to be stopped!
We are talking about the nation's unhinged monetary politburo domiciled in the Eccles Building, of course. It is bad enough that their relentless inflation of financial assets has showered the 1% with untold trillions of windfall gains, but their ultimate crime is that they lured the nation's elected politician into a veritable fiscal trance.

To be crucified is to suffer and die slowly and agonizingly. It was a common form of execution in the ancient world. It is generally associated with Rome's killing of Jesus and carries profound symbolic spiritual meaning for Christians. In its figurative sense, it refers to many types of suffering and death inflicted on the weak by the strong, such as the ongoing genocidal slaughter of Palestinians by the Israel government.

Response to the "antisemitism awareness act of 2023"
What is happening on college campuses and what is being pushed through the Congress
The passage of the "Antisemitism Awareness Act" on May 1, the traditional day for celebrating the contributions of labor, by the House of Representatives, represents a dangerous effort to weaponize the laws and regulations established over the last 150 years to protect citizens against racial discrimination and to use them now to justify the absolute power of a corrupt government, doing the bidding of multinational banks and corporations, to punish anyone speaking out against the horrific actions taking place in Gaza.

World reserve status allows for amazing latitude in terms of monetary policy. The Federal Reserve understands that there is constant demand for dollars overseas as a means to more easily import and export goods. The dollar's petro-status also makes it essential for trading oil globally. This means that the central bank of the US has been able to create fiat currency from thin air to a far higher degree than any other central bank on the planet while avoiding the immediate effects of hyperinflation.

"Resentful childless harpies unconsciously longing for domination. Why else worship at the altar of Hamas? Why else would it be so overwhelmingly female?" - Dr. Jordan Peterson
Wasn't it cute how the youngsters who "occupied" Columbia U's Hamilton Hall - and were busy smashing things up inside - demanded restaurant-grade meals sent in to avert "starvation and dehydration" amongst their dauntless ranks? You could imagine a colossal mommy breast with three hundred nipples descending from the sky over upper Manhattan to nourish them back to action.
Big Brother surveille les employés des entrepôts d'Amazon et de Walmart
Amazon et Walmart investissent massivement dans la surveillance technologique très invasive de leur personnel d'entrepôt ; une surveillance qui permet ensuite l'hyper-exploitation à laquelle sont soumis les travailleurs des deux entreprises.

La réelle faisant défaut, l'administration française va tenter l'intelligence artificielle
par H16
Avec les développements récents de l'intelligence artificielle, il apparaît clair que cette technologie va, progressivement, tous nous toucher d'une façon ou d'une autre : comme le mentionnaient ces colonnes il y a quelques jours, l'intelligence artificielle s'adresse à tous, et c'est tellement vrai que, comprenant la tendance et l'importance de s'inscrire avec elle, l'administration française s'y met à son tour !
Le génocide de Gaza sera la fin d'Israël
|Les destructions dans la bande de Gaza sont inimaginables. Les dirigeants israéliens, véritables nazis des temps modernes, se sont jurés de commettre un génocide, avec l'appui explicite du monde occidental - Photo : Mohammed Zaanoun / Activestills

Plus le colonisé résiste, plus le colonisateur devient brutal. Israël génocidaire marche désormais sur les traces de toutes les autres colonies de peuplement sur leur lit de mort.
Oui à la démocratie - mais seulement si cela convient

Palais fédéral, Bern. Wikimédia
Lorsque des intérêts particuliers priment sur la volonté du peuple et la Constitution au Parlement, les valeurs démocratiques passent à la trappe.
Ces derniers temps, la majorité bourgeoise suit un cours discutable du point de vue de la politique étatique : De plus en plus souvent, elle plie à sa volonté les plébiscites et les décisions démocratiques qui ne lui conviennent pas - au besoin contre les règles de procédure établies, la Constitution fédérale et la volonté du peuple.
From Gaza to Guantanamo: The Horrors of Western Imperialism
Mnar Adley
Over the past six months, we have witnessed some of the darkest moments in human history and some of the worst of its capabilities.
Every day, we collectively watch in horror as an apartheid state carries out war crimes against defenseless civilian populations with almost complete impunity - and with the near total support of Western leaders, who continue to funnel money, weapons and political protection to Israel.
