------------------------------------------------------------
By Nicolas J. S. Davies on Dec 05, 2019 11:30 am
[link removed]

The government Iraqis are protesting against today is still led by the same gang of U.S.-backed Iraqi exiles who wove a web of lies to stage-manage the invasion of their own country in 2003.

“This very much appears to be a Betsy DeVos scheme to block the next president from unilaterally forgiving federal student debt, which she is well aware a president could do without Congress.

By Medea Benjamin on Dec 05, 2019 05:00 am

While claiming to “preserve peace,” NATO has a history of bombing civilians and committing war crimes. The three smartest words that Donald Trump uttered during his presidential campaign are “NATO is obsolete.” His adversary, Hillary Clinton, retorted that NATO was “the strongest military alliance in the history of the world.” Now that Trump has been in power, the White House parrots the [...]

Wealthy countries have left developing countries with an ugly choice: to forgo carbon, the cheapest fuel, and then forgo social development for their populations; or to continue to use carbon and threaten the planet.
