Say Racism’s Name, And Fight It With Solidarity
Terrace, PopularResistance.Org - 6 hours ago
The instability of Trump’s presidency and the rise of the Black Lives Matter movement have upset the U.S. power structure. White supremacist groups such as the Proud Boys and the Boogaloo Movement have increased in number and visibility to protect the right of white America to the historic spoils of stolen land and stolen labor. These groups have found their Great White Hope in Donald Trump and his many appeals to keep them safe from Black Americans, immigrants, and oppressed nations all over the world.

Terrace, PopularResistance.Org - 6 hours ago
The hope for the extension of the New Strategic Arms Control Treaty (START) was revived on Tuesday, October 20, after Russia offered freezing the number of its nuclear warheads in a statement, along with a one-year extension of the deal. The Russian foreign ministry said in a statement that, “Russia offers to extend the New START by one year and is ready to take on a political commitment with the United States to freeze the number of nuclear warheads both sides have for this period.” The US state department immediately welcomed the offer and declared that negotiations to settle...

On 9 October 2020, the Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to the United Nations’ World Food Programme. In the citation for the award, the Norwegian Nobel Committee pointed to the ‘link between hunger and armed conflict’, noting that ‘war and conflict can cause food insecurity and hunger, just as hunger and food insecurity can cause latent conflicts to flare up and trigger the use of violence’. The demand for zero hunger requires ‘an end to war and armed conflict’, said the Nobel Committee. During the pandemic, the numbers of those who go to bed hungry at night have dramatically escalat...

Question: You've Never Seen a Tank Before. How Do You Kill It?
Warfare History Network, The National Interest - 6 hours ago
*Warfare History Network* *History, Europe* [image: Wikimedia Commons] The Germans looked for ways to combat the unnerving new threat. The Somme offensive, which began on July 1, 1916, had by late that month deteriorated into a series of small, costly actions. Hoping to revive the attack, the British Army launched another major offensive on September 15. Spearheading the new effort were tanks, a British secret weapon designed to crush the German barbed-wire and machine gun-laced trench system that had brutally resisted all Allied attempts to end the bloody stalemate on the Weste...

The candidates will still be able to hear each other, potentially interrupting their train of thought – and, as The New York Times reported, anything a candidate says while his own microphone is muted may still be picked up by the other candidate...

The latest iteration of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, which has already claimed the lives of dozens of people, had been largely forgotten by the world before hostilities reignited in September.

Now, almost a quarter of a century later, the still contested region claimed under international law by Azerbaijan and de facto controlled by its ethnic Armenian majority has fallen under a new spell of violence thanks in large part to external acto...

Ri Sol-ju, the wife of North Korean premier Kim Jong-un, has not appeared in public in several months, and some in that country are beginning to ask questions about why that is. Not much is known about Ri, except that she is a former singer who was once part of the “Army of Beauties” cheerleading squad, per a Fox News profile earlier this year. She is thought to be around 30 years old, a native of Chongjin, and a graduate of Kim Il Sung University. It’s also not clear h...
This Is What a B-52 Bomber 'Elephant Walk' Looks Like
Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 8 hours ago
*Peter Suciu* *B-52, Europe* Imagine all of these going out to war--at once. It surely made for an impressive sight. Eight United States Air Force B-52H Stratofortress bombers could be seen lined up on the runway at Barksdale Air Force Base, Louisiana in an “elephant walk,” the procession of military aircraft taxiing in close formation prior to takeoff. This most recent show of force of the Cold War-era bombers, which took place last week, was part of a readiness exercise conducted to ensure that the 2nd Bomb Wing remains fully able to provide winning combat power. The Air Forc...

Narrative Hardball
Joseph Fishkin, Balkinization - 9 hours ago
When Dave Pozen and I wrote our article two years ago on asymmetric constitutional hardball (building on the important and ongoing work by Mark Tushnet), our bottom line was that the constitutional hardball we observe is reciprocal but not symmetrical. Both Democrats and Republicans engage in constitutional hardball, and predictably tend to do so in response to one another; but for at least the past 25 years or so, the Republican party has simply played harder hardball. Over and over, Democrats do respond. But they respond with much less aggressive forms of hardball. Our article was ...
OCT 22: VIOLENCE AND IMPUNITY CONTINUE TO REIGN:
DrCintli, Dr Cintli - 9 hours ago
In writing my Yolqui book on law enforcement violence, a couple of things happened along the way. I have met and been in contact with more and more families who have had family members killed or brutalized extrajudicially by law enforcement – that is, without indictments or trials, etc. The trauma is immeasurable, especially sans justice. What I have further learned through my life-long monitoring of such abuse is that violence by law enforcement against Red-Black-Brown peoples is not random, but targeted, especially when considering the complicit role of the judicial system in fa...
If White Supremacists Secede, Will POC sFollow?
DrCintli, Dr Cintli - 9 hours ago
By ROBERTO Dr. CINTLI Cintli Rodriguez PROGRESSIVE POPULIST NOV. 1 ISSUE If the current White House occupant were to lose the presidential election and refuses to step down, would his cult followers respond with a violent uprising? At minimum, we know they are on “standby.” Akin to the breakup of the Soviet Union, could this also spell the “end of America?” Some observers have speculated that his white supremacist followers have, in effect, already seceded from the nation (What could upset this political apple cart even further is if he were to succumb to COVID 19). What of the oppo...

It remains clear that the victim of Scott Moe's careless driving isn't about to give up on finding out what happened - even if the local media continues to operate under Moe's orders not to so much as ask questions. But if Moe is avoiding questions about the crash itself, here's a simple one he should have no problem addressing when it comes to Steven Balog's search for answers. The information Moe has requested from the RCMP will almost certainly include what would be considered personal information about Moe. And Moe's consent - or lack thereof - figures to have a substantial ...
