INDRAJIT—Today, America and their Jewish client state think they can defeat Palestinians by genociding them. Not merely killing them, but starving them to death, making them suffer and die without food, water, medicine, or sanitation. As the cowardly Yoav Gallant said, announcing the whole thing, “No electricity, no food, no fuel, no water. Everything is closed. We are fighting human animals, and we act accordingly.” The concentration camp became an extermination camp after the inmates dared rebel.

EDITOR—A wide-ranging discussion on imperialism. The panel discusses the nature of Western imperialism and its nasty tendency to use all manner of dirty tricks, from global demonisation to blackmail, regime change ops, including organising proxy groups such as ISIS, economic warfare (sanctions), long-term insurgencies, and vicious targeted terrorism. Billy Bob clarifies that usually “imperialism” is chiefly understood in two forms: The Marxist-Leninist way which sees imperialism as merely the latest and most developed (and decaying) phase of capitalism, finance capitalism, and the more bourgeois, liberal interpretation, which sees imperialism simply as a big nation oppressing and exploiting weaker ones. In general, the panel agrees that, as a rule, imperialism exists when an entity—Britain, France, the US—uses the powers of the state to conquer and maintain markets around the globe, largely because capitalism, especially in the imperialist phase, needs constant expansion to survive. Carlo and Ian point out that from domestic labour disturbances, where the state can intervene in favor of the oligarchs, or allow private armies (i.e., Pinkertons, etc.) to be used against the working class, to open international intervention using national state resources such as the armed forces (Marines, navy, army, etc.) the capitalists who control the bourgeois state as a class, utllize the national might to benefit their own interests, often at the expense of the masses.

EDITOR—Glenn and Matt Taibbi discuss how the top institutions in America —the judicial powers and the Supreme Court, the media, etc.—handle situations wherein the government is interested in suppressing some facts or stories inimical to their policy agendas. This is especially critical when the institutions in play are the Supreme Court, the FBI, CiA, etc. and the effect of their interventions can be entirely unconstitutional, since their behaviour can erase the citizen’s First Amendment guarantees of Free Speech.
In the specific, the central issue is now, in the digital age, whether or not governments around the globe should be allowed to control the flow of information to suit their ideologies and policies, thus exercising narrative control and wide censorship powers -

We learn about President Jovenel Moïse’s July 7, 2021 assassination, the stymied investigation of which is having a profound effect on Haiti’s national liberation struggle.
