DAN COHEN—’Another Vision: Inside Haiti’s Uprising’ tells the story of Jimmy ‘Barbecue’ Cherizier and the Revolutionary Forces of the G9 Family and Allies, the anti-crime armed neighborhood federation in the crosshairs of the U.S. empire. In this series’ spectacular conclusion, Episode 3 shows Cherizier trekking through the planet’s most miserable slums as he seeks to advance a “mental revolution” among Haiti’s poorest masses.

48 minutes readJEFF J. BROWN—It’s too easy for people like Engdahl to think that China is just like the United States or Europe, and it’s not. The land is all people-owned. The banks are all people-owned. The insurance companies are all people-owned. Much of the large scale industry is all people-owned. So plus you have a much more honest, caring government that’s actually trying to help the people instead of trying to kill it [or bamboozle it]. It’s just also wrongheaded.

The ceasefire, note the Bronx Antiwar Coalition activists, is but the first step toward a long and inevitably difficult process to bring international peace to multiple countries on the basis of justice, and that begins with the trying and sentencing of highly placed war criminals in Israel and throughout the West.
