Whether you’re thinking about war, climate change, or Donald Trump, we distinctly seem to be in a world going to hell in a proverbial handbasket — or do I mean an e-basket or, for that matter, could it be a Trump and Putin basket? In such a world, if you want to do anything to try to reset the human agenda, or at least protest where it’s taking us (as I know all too well
LA, DC, Chicago and Mass Nonviolent Uprisings
I recently published an article called “The Case Against a Military Intervention to Stop the Gaza Genocide,” not because I like either of the two choices on the usual, supposedly exhaustive list of options (lie back and take it, or kill-kill-kill) but because I think there is another way — or thousands of varieties of another way. That is, the options for nonviolent, strategic,

The one thing you can say about Donald Trump in his second term in office is that, whatever he may be doing at home, he’s not fighting any wars abroad, right? Well, actually, wrong! Yes, American ground troops are no longer actively fighting wars around the world, but when it comes to air power, think again. And I don’t just have in mind his brief but devastating recent

Yes, the National Guard is already in the streets of Washington, D.C., and count on one thing: that’s surely only the beginning. Donald Trump declared a “public safety emergency” there (think martial law) while announcing “a

This is a wide-ranging discussion of matters of peace and war.
The Case Against a Military Intervention to Stop the Gaza Genocide
Have you read “The Case for Military Intervention to Stop the Gaza Genocide“? I don’t mind promoting it to you, since I agree with most of it (and also consider most of it to do absolutely nothing to advance any case for military intervention to stop the Gaza genocide).
The enormous problem we face is not the people who care enough and are desperate enough to make this misguided proposal. The enormous problem is the usual one: corrupt, evil, malfunctioning, and sadistic governments abetted
