»Japan's current #constitution, which took effect in 1947, contains the famous Article 9, under which the country renounces war as a sovereign right of the nation & the threat or use of force as a means of settling international disputes. The article also stipulates that Japan will not maintain war potential, leading the constitution to be widely known as the "pacifist constitution."«

Preventable suffering is both widespread and socially produced.
Early warning systems, care networks, and deliberate policy choices can save lives, but only where a politics of care is actively built and maintained.

(Carpe diem!)
„Speaking on Tuesday, G. M. Ejei said cases involving individuals accused of assisting hostile actors should be handled more rapidly, according to Mizan news. He urged authorities to accelerate verdicts, including executions or the #confiscation of assets. (…) [S]ecurity forces have detained hundreds of people on accusations of collaboration.“

Trump/GOP domestic policy clarified.
"It’s not possible for us to take care of day care, Medicaid, Medicare, all these individual things. They can do it on a state basis. We have to take care of one thing: military protection.”
The words above are from Trump.
Trump/GOP domestic policy:
- the Federal government has no responsibility for individual and family benefit programs
- the States alone are responsible for individual and family benefit programs
- taxes are for defense and security spending only -
#China is an authoritarian, surveillance state ruled by a one powerful man. That said, the Chinese Communist Party under Xi’s leadership seems to legit try to do its best for the country and people. There are glaring empire tendencies on the downside - thinking of Tibet, Taiwan and the Uyghurs - but on the upside the government/party has lifted a ton of people out of poverty and propelled the country into global tech, automotive, economic and alternative energy leadership roles. Most recently, Chinese President Xi Jinping on Monday called for mobilizing the whole society to actively participate in afforestation, stressing that a sound ecological environment is shared by all and requires the joint efforts of all. Just sayin… Beats the crap outta paying a billion taxpayer dollars to remove US wind energy installations already underway and approving clear cutting of old-growth forests. #environment #DomesticPolicy

To borrow from Senator Chris Murphy’s comment on Trump
“This is the most incompetent, incoherent war[/economic, foreign, and domestic policy/administration] America has fought[/enacted] in the last 100[/250] years, and that’s saying a lot,” Murphy said, with his comments at the Capitol aired on CNN’s NewsNight on Thursday.
There, now I can take Alie out for her morning walk.

„[P]roblems that are … existential for Israel — its growing international #isolation, its #braindrain & economic woes, its tremendous domestic #polarization, its creeping annexation of the West#Bank, #Gaza’s instability, #Hamas’s future — all sit on the back burner. Victory over Iran would no doubt transform the country’s security prospects (…) But it will not be enough to mend the country’s deepest #divisions.“

»According to Smotrich, himself a settler in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, the Israeli prime minister should instead “establish a military government there, to encourage immigration and #settlement, and in this way to ensure Israel’s security for many years”.«

A quotation from Franklin Roosevelt
There is no question in my mind that it is time for the country to become fairly radical for a generation. History shows that where this occurs occasionally, nations are saved from revolution.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1882-1945) American lawyer, politician, statesman, US President (1933-1945)
Letter (1930-05-12) to John A. KingsburySourcing, notes: wist.info/roosevelt-franklin-d…

„Netanyahu has embraced — partly out of conviction and partly to maintain the necessary support to stay in power — the Gaza agenda of his allies in Israel’s far-right nationalist movement. This vision, which is being implemented at a rapid pace, centers on establishing settlements and carrying out the ethnic cleansing of the population in Gaza.“

„The Israeli Parliament … approved final readings of a Bill giving politicians a greater say in selecting judges, one of a series of issues that have fuelled a wave of protests against the government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. (…)
Opposition parties, which have attacked the Bill as a blow to one of the foundations of Israeli democracy, boycotted the final vote.“ -

„A coalition of hostage families and protesters against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's moves against the judiciary and parts of the security establishment is coming together again after war returned this week to Gaza.“

#Israel #palestine : #domesticpolicy / #publicopinion / #survey / #war / #gaza
„Israelis want Benjamin Netanyahu to say sorry and go away. A survey released this week by the Israel Democracy Institute found that a staggering 87 percent of Israelis think the prime minister should take responsibility for the events of October 7, and 73 percent want him to resign either now or after the Gaza war.‟

A quotation from Franklin Roosevelt
Just as our national policy in internal affairs has been based upon a decent respect for the rights and the dignity of all our fellow men within our gates, so our national policy in foreign affairs has been based on a decent respect for the rights and dignity of all nations, large and small. And the justice of morality must and will win in the end.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1882-1945) American lawyer, politician, statesman, US President (1933-1945)
Speech (1941-01-06), “State of the Union [Four Freedoms],” Washington, D. C.Sourcing, notes: wist.info/roosevelt-franklin-d…

»"We shoot at everything that moves"
More than a year after October 7, a second hostage deal is a long way off. Some Israeli soldiers are threatening the political leadership with refusal to go to war. Not only to force Israel's government to change course, but also because of misconduct in the army.«

„It is known in Israel that Netanyahu is deliberately undermining a deal with Hamas that would achieve the release of the hostages. Why aren't hundreds of thousands protesting on Israel's streets?“
„Man weiß in Israel, dass Netanjahu bewusst einen Deal mit Hamas unterwandert, der die Befreiung der Geiseln erzielen würde. Warum protestieren nicht Hunderttausende auf Israels Straßen?“

Neera headed the #progressive Center for American Progress & got in the crosshairs of the #GOP & #JoeManchin for her vocal opposition to extreme conservative policies.
