The collapsing US military & economic empire is making Washington & NATO even more dangerous. US could not beat the Taliban but thinks it can take on China-Russia-Iran...a sign of psychopathology for sure. We must all do more to help stop this western corporate arrogance that puts the future generations lives in despair. @BruceKGagnon

How much longer can we stand this?

   


Global Network NYT space story critique video


Now more than ever as the genocide in Gaza continues and the US-NATO insanely ramps up preparations for full-blown war with Russia and China, working class people must rely on alternative media to get our messages out to the public.

This latest Global Network space video critiques the recent New York Times article on space warfare and once again shows how the corporate media are controlled by the upper crust.

It’s beyond time for the global public to break their chains and realize they are ill-served by the 1% ruling elites control of media and our governments.

Lately at our regular weekly anti-war protests in my town of Brunswick, Maine there has been a growing chorus of supportive car honks and waves. Are people getting worried about nuclear war? Are they aware that the U.S. is $35 trillion in debt? Do they know that the U.S. spends $1 trillion a year to service that debt?

Are they aghast over the zionist genocide in Palestine? Do they know that the U.S. Congress and White House are bought and paid for by the military industrial complex and AIPAC?

The war economy is unsustainable. It reveals a moral and spiritual bankruptcy across the west (US-NATO). We have no real choice anymore between our two war political parties.

Democracy is now fading like the setting sun.

 


Activist Don Hank recently wrote: “Democrats supply the bombs. Republicans [Nikki Haley] autograph them [in Israel].” He nails our current condition to the wall for everyone to see.

We’ve just witnessed how the state of New York set new requirements to restrict third party presidential candidates from getting on the ballot. The Green Party faced having to secure 45,000 signatures within six weeks to get on the November ballot. They got the signatures but lawyers for the Dems are pressuring to get enough of the signatures thrown out so the Greens won't be on ballot come election day. That is ‘democracy’ in America.

I am reminded of a famous quote by WW2 Italian fascist leader Benito Mussolini where he defined fascism as the ‘wedding of corporations and government’. Isn’t that just what we have in the US and Europe today?

The time is coming soon when the people across the west will turn on their corrupt masters. We must shut down the war machine and get rid of its mis-leaders.
 
Now!
