"Adam Ayyad, 15, was aware that a Palestinian under Israeli apartheid is always a potential target. The handwritten will he carried in his pocket the day he was shot began with the following words: 'There were a lot of things I wished I could do, but we live in a country where realizing your dreams is impossible.'"

As Profits Soar, US Utilities Lavish Shareholders While Shutting Off Power for Millions
https://www.commondreams.org/news/utility-shutoffs-shareholders
Still haven't figured out that capitalists are quite ready to see us die, if it will mean more zeros in their reports to shareholders? The only thing that matters to them is the numbers--profit. That's all.

As Germany & U.S. Agree on Tanks for Ukraine, German MP Accuses U.S. of Pushing Berlin into Proxy War
https://www.democracynow.org/2023/1/25/germany_leopard_tanks_ukraine_russia_war
This must be Putin propaganda--the very thought that nonstop-war-making U$A would manipulate a friend & ally into getting drawn into a conflict not of its own making...the very thought! Some people will say anything, I tell you.

The Hamline controversy and the real threat to academic freedom
https://www.aljazeera.com/opinions/2023/1/22/the-hamline-controversy-and-the-real-threat-to-academic-freedom
Xclnt analysis, Marxist in its insights (no idea whether author is self-identified as a Marxist). Note it's consistent with trends in US towards greater exploitation, greater austerity, for working people--including in academia. Capitalism makes us all poorer--save for the already very rich.

Jacinda Ardern is a global icon — but she’s still a politician
https://www.vox.com/world/2023/1/21/23562489/jacinda-ardern-new-zealand-prime-minister-resign
Tho written in a fairly "soft" 1% style, I think this analytical piece does touch all the major points...& rightly assesses Ardern as a figure of style over substance (my words, not theirs). A genuinely decent human being--like Bernie Sanders--whose actual politics are far closer to business as usual than her partisans portray. See what you think.

Ex-CIA Agent John Kiriakou: The Deep State’s Attack on Dissent Beginning With MLK
https://scheerpost.com/2023/01/20/ex-cia-agent-john-kiriakou-the-deep-states-attack-on-dissent-beginning-with-mlk/ I did prison support for this man while he did time in federal prison for "outing" a CIA torturer. He is a person of integrity, courage, & a strong ally in the struggle against the 1% Big Brother state.

From her 1st day to her last, Kshama Sawant has stood up for us, the 99%--never making deals with the 1%. That's what corporate media & their political counterparts call "divisive." We need more such fighters! That means we need to stand up and fight back!

[Note: substitute 'humanity' for 'man']
History can be viewed from two sides: it can be divided into the history of nature and that of man. The two sides, however, are not to be seen as independent entities. As long as man has existed, nature and man have affected each other. - Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, from their work, The German Ideology. Quoted in Marx's Ecology: Materialism and Nature, by John Bellamy Foster. #MarxistEcology #Marxism #Ecology -
