Interview: "Yemen chat leak: What does it tell us about Trump’s administration?"

The inadvertent inclusion of the journalist indicates "a level of carelessness that is more insidious" than Trump cares to admit.

"Despite the gravity of the mistake, no one expects any accountability for the officials involved."

~Alex Wagner, fmr Pentagon official & military affairs journalist Kevin Baron

#US / Newly released CIA report reveals Cold War activities targeting Israeli Communist Party

A declassified 1961 #CIA report details the agency's surveillance of the Israeli Communist Party (#MAKI). The 25-page document, released under the Trump administration, examines MAKI's leadership, its youth wing, and its connections to various Israeli organizations. The report highlights the CIA's concerns about the party's political influence and its efforts to undermine it. The report details the party's membership, split by ethnicity and origin. The report also reveals the CIA's focus on encouraging internal divisions within the party.

[...] The secret document reveals a glimpse of the depth of American global imperialist activity, and one can only wonder how involved then-Prime Minister Ben-Gurion was in the anti-democratic campaign in Israel, as according to the document, he expressed concern on more than one occasion that 'MAKI, MAPAM, and Israeli leftists would seize power

This release is part of a larger declassification effort related to the John F. Kennedy assassination.

Francesca Albanese on why the UN isn't working

While the General Assembly has changed since the UN's inception, the Security Council hasn't.

The UN was formed by and for the racist colonial powers.

Interview: US Aid Often Reproduces Inequality, But Killing USAID Is Wrong Answer

USAID etc. not only depend on global inequality, but in many ways produce it.

Much of the aid actually flows back to the US, thus supporting U.S. interests.

It also hides the ways that US trade agreements, etc often cause global inequality.

In the first 5 years of NAFTA, eg, 5 million Mexicans lost their farms. They looked to the US for economic survival. Simultaneously, the US militarised the border.
