COMMENT

Gordon Campbell: On The Government’s Gaslighting About Growth

Trump and Luxon both have a lack of any experience in how to kick-start economic growth, especially in the wake of a recession.

Martin LeFevre - Meditations: The Transcendent Brain

Illumination is an irrevocable change in the brain, such that the brain’s default state is effortless attention and stillness.

Binoy Kampmark: Frankfurt Airport - A Special Kind Of Loathing

Instead of steely no-nonsense efficiency, we see gross lethargy in moving people across terminals. Instead of promptitude in offering advice to those desperately in need of it, we get inconsistent messages, errors and utterances of sheer ignorance. This is the message from Frankfurt Airport, one of the industrialised world’s worst marked and governed aviation hubs.

Ramzy Baroud: Gaza's Unbreakable Resistance - A Historical Perspective On The War And Its Aftermath

Far from being merely an academic concept, the long legacy of resistance against injustice has shaped the collective mindset of the Palestinian population in Gaza over the years.
