COMMENT

Eugene Doyle: Disruption - Historians Challenge Russophobic Propaganda

The courage to oppose a dominant discourse comes at a price. Powerful forces are pressing in on academics and others who dare to express alternative views. Staying silent or parroting the party line is the safer option.

Ramzy Baroud: War, Doublethink, And The Struggle For Survival - Geopolitics Of The Gaza Genocide

The Arab world must escalate beyond mere statements, or the Middle East may endure further war, all to prolong Netanyahu’s coalition of extremists a little longer.

Binoy Kampmark: Authoritarian Politics - Netanyahu’s War On Israeli Institutions

Healing for Netanyahu is a hard concept to envisage. His authoritarian politics is that of the supreme survivalist with lashings of expedient populism.

Keith Rankin: Learning The Correct Lessons From World War Two In Europe

The biggest threat to peace is war; not Russia, not China, not Germany, not the United States of America, not Iran, not the hapless United Kingdom. Wars are a problem, not a solution. The lessons to learn are: avoid war, and the drum-beating that precedes it. And avoid technocratic utopian groupthink; avoid ideologies masquerading as science.

Ramzy Baroud: Arab Failures - The Unspoken Complicity In Israel's Genocide

The idea that Israel is brutalizing Palestinians simply because the Arabs are too weak to challenge the Benjamin Netanyahu government—or any government—implies that, in theory, Arab regimes could unite around Palestine. However, this view oversimplifies the matter.

Peter Dunne: Dunne's Weekly - The 'War On Woke' Is Really Just A 'War Of Words'

By claiming the “anti-woke” ground as his own, Peters has stolen an early march on his rivals and thereby probably ensured New Zealand First’s re-election. Peters has always understood better than most that politics is about the acquisition and retention of power. The “war on woke” is simply his latest means to achieve that end.
