  • Activists Demand Action from UN to Stop Genocide

    “As many members of the UN Security Council said in their meeting on Tuesday, they must move to action. The Algerians and Palestinians talked about sanctions. We have a resource page on that and have been urging states to take bilateral necessary actions. Of course, the U.S. government’s veto prevents the Security Council from doing its job to maintain peace and security. The remedy for this is for the UN General Assembly to use Uniting for Peace to assert meaningful action, like sanctions.” Jereski highlights a new piece by UN whistleblower Craig Mokhiber: “The ICJ finds that BDS is not…

Special Rapporteurs.”

  • Trump’s Big Caribbean War Lie

    “The evidence that the U.S. Navy’s buildup in the Caribbean is not about combating drugs but rather regime change in Venezuela is overwhelming. Perhaps the most obvious is that the U.S. is obliterating small boats and their crews, rather than capturing the men and forcing a confession from them. No names are released.“
