Governing Crisis โ€“ Sanctions, Austerity and Social Unrest in Iran Recent protests triggered by currency collapse and price shocks expose how sanctions have reconfigured state power, enabling austerity and insider accumulation rather than relief.

Le senzioni economiche all'Iran non indeboliscono lo stato iraniano, al contrario: hanno permesso a una รฉlite di potere di accumulare soldi e privilegi, mentre il costo pesa tutto sui normali cittadini, sempre piรน impoveriti

The calculated erasure of Ras Ein Al-Auja Israeli state-backed settler violence is displacing the southern Jordan Valleyโ€™s last herding community, advancing efforts to empty Area C of Palestinians.

Since January 2023, around 4,000 Palestinians have been driven from their homes in the West Bank by state-backed settler violence.

Today, the community of Ras Ein Al-Auja stands on the brink of erasure.

Profitable Violence: A New Era of the Border Industrial Complex In 2025, a dramatic increase in contracts to private industry correlates with increasing violence committed by border and immigration police forces.

"What was incoming, however, was something new, a new era of even more privatized border and immigration enforcement and, if the sweeps of 2025 were any indication, an era of profitable violence."

Georgetown University severs ties with Francesca Albanese | The Jerusalem Post Georgetown University has removed Francesca Albanese, the UN Special Rapporteur, following her antisemitic remarks, including justifying the October 7 attacks, after a campaign by UN Watch.

On this Christmas Day, Israeli press reports that Georgetown has cut ties with Franceska Albanese after a campaign by a pro-Apartheid, pro-Genocide org specializing in canceling critics of Israel.

They can't win a single argument, so they rely on silencing people.

Indonesia calls in military to help clear forests at rapid pace Deforestation under way on 3mn hectares for state-backed food project

Cosa significa "biocarburanti"? Ad esempio questo: 3 milioni di ettari deforestati (e abitanti costretti a sfollare) per fare grandi piantagioni di canna da zucchero a West Papua, Indonesia - tutto gestito dall'esercito.

What does it mean "biofuel"? For instance this: 3mn hectares being deforested (and local inhabitants displaced) to make way for large-scale sugarcane coltivations in West Papua - all managed by the army.

This is Gaza City, filmed by the @AP.

Complete destruction. This is what Israel, and its backers in the US, UK, and Germany, call "targeting bombing."

Gaza will one day recover.

The West's moral standing, however, will not.
