    Europe’s addiction to sanctions is terminal

    Saturday, 26 July 2025 — Al Mayadeen English

    The leaders of Europe still seem not have realized the declining impact of their actions, nor their long-term negative consequences they will have for the continent. (Al Mayadeen English; Illustration by Zainab el-Hajj)

    • Samuel Geddes

    The continent’s compensation for its shrinking global influence only hastens its marginalization from a reordering world-system.

    The GMO illusion: Three decades of hype, harm, and false hope

    Picture a world where there is plenty of food, no hunger, fields grow without chemical pesticides, children are saved from malnutrition, and people live healthily. Three decades later, the promises of GMOs lie across the fields like superweeds – costly, useless, and crowding out real alternatives. In 1995, with the approval of Bt maize and glyphosate-tolerant soy in the US, GMOs were touted as the silver bullet: eliminating hunger, reducing pesticides, boosting yields, and fortifying nutrition. But the dream, peddled by biotech giants and promoted by complicit research institutions, has proven illusory. A comprehensive exposé, GMO Promises, by Save Our Seeds, GMWatch, and Beyond GM, offers a reality check. Through eight meticulously documented case studies, the article lays bare a pattern of ecological harm, regulatory evasion, scientific failure, and corporate overreach. Counterview

    “Plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose”, the more it changes, the more it remains the same. Or “back to the 1880s!” The New Deal era was the exception for the US, not the rule.

    Voices From the Terror List: Palestine Action Members Speak Out After UK Ban

    Friday, 25 July 2025 — MintPress News

    Kit Klarenberg

    On July 1, British Home Secretary Yvette Cooper announced that Palestine Action (PA), a crusading campaign effort, would be proscribed as a terrorist group. Describing the movement as “dangerous,” she charged that its “orchestration and enaction of aggressive and intimidatory attacks against businesses, institutions and the public” had “crossed the thresholds established in the Terrorism Act 2000.” As a result, PA is now the country’s first protest group to be formally branded a terrorist entity, placing it in the same league as al-Qaida and ISIS.

    Kit Klarenberg

    On July 19th, the Mail on Sunday revealed that Inter-Mediate, a shadowy firm founded by Jonathan Powell, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s National Security Advisor, brokered re-establishment of diplomatic relations between Damascus and London, and a heavily-publicised meeting between Foreign Secretary David Lammy and Syria’s self-appointed leader Ahmad al-Sharaa, two weeks prior. What’s more, the outlet exposed how Inter-Mediate – which is funded by the British state – operates a dedicated office in Syria’s Presidential Palace.

    The Sweepstakes of Death: How Ukraine Resurrected the Ghosts of Murderous Regimes

    Friday, 25 July 2025 — New Eastern Outlook

    Phil Butler

    Ukraine’s new digital kill-points reward system, praised in the West as innovation, marks a chilling return to the ancient logic of ritualized violence—where death is commodified, incentivized, and gamified under the banner of progress.

    Ukraine’s new digital kill-points reward system

    The United States and the NATO bloc are about to send more billions in weapons to a country led, or proxied, into the most depraved regime since Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge. The Ukrainian military is now doing what few regimes have dared: turning the act of killing into a points-based rewards program.

    Staying safer during anti-fascist protests

    Thursday, 24 July 2025 — NetPol


    The last few weeks have seen a rise in racist far-right violence, with large fascist mobilisations in Epping and Canary Wharf organised by neo-Nazi groups.

    It’s incredibly important to protect your identity and use secure methods of organising when you’re taking anti-fascist action, as you face risks not just from the police but from far-right groups.

    Far-right groups sometimes “dox” anti-fasicst campaigners, publishing people’s photos and personal details online. Netpol have recieved reports of far-right Youtubers and livestreamers provoking anti-fascist protesters at recent protests and then publishing footage online.

    Keeping your identity secure and wearing a mask to protests can help to protect you from this. Netpol has a guide specifically for those taking anti-fascist action on our Security and Solidarity site, alongside other practical advice for campaigners.

    Check out our guide, and share the key advice on Instagram, Facebook and Bluesky!

    Guide: Staying safer during anti-fascist protests
    Protest First Aid are offering training on supporting people experiencing distress at protests. This workshop aims to decentre psychiatry and the concept of illness, and will cover why mental health first aid is needed, how to pack a first aid kit, and practical methods of support.

    Join them at Hornbeam Community Cafe & Environment Centre, 458 Hoe Street, Walthamstow, E17 9AH on Saturday 26 July from 4pm – 6pm for this free workshop.

    The Brass Checkers: Fact-Checkers ‘R’ the ‘New Age Censors and Parody for Brilliance. Part 1

    Thursday, 24 July 2025 — New Eastern Outlook

    Seth Ferris

    A century after Upton Sinclair exposed journalism as a racket in The Brass Check, today’s media landscape has evolved into something even more dangerous: sanitized censorship disguised as fact-checking.

    In 1919, Upton Sinclair wrote a scathing exposé of American journalism as a racket, a system where truth is sold like a body in a brothel.  Today’s pimps of public opinion aren’t just corporate editors or advertisers. They wear press badges labelled “Fact Checker” and claim neutrality. But scratch the surface, and many are professional liars—laundering narratives for the very powers they claim to oversee.

    I know there is a lot of interest in the Jeffrey Epstein story and the new revelations from Tulsi Gabbard about Barack Obama and his team’s efforts to fan the flames of Russiagate. I have been all over the Russiagate matter since 2017. Here is the link to a piece I published on December 18, 2018 with the nifty title, The Trump Coup Is a Threat to Our Republic. I am glad the information is finally coming out, but I knew this seven years ago. What took them so long? While Tulsi’s revelations are legit, I think she is releasing this information now to distract attention away from the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. Trump is getting killed in the polls — reportedly he is down 40% points on this issue.

    Sean Foo: Panic and Collapse as the West’s Economic War on China and Russia Backfires

    Thursday, 24 July 2025 — Glenn Diesen’s Substack

    Glenn Diesen

    Sean Foo is a financial analyst and a China expert. Foo discusses how the economic war against China and Russia is having a detrimental impact on Western economies. As industrial economies focused on the physical economy, China, Russia, and other BRICS countries are bypassing the middlemen in Western financialised economies.

    Offers Obama To The MAGA Masses

    Roger Boyd

    The US ruling bourgeois oligarchy can have its differences, but when push comes to shove the interests of the oligarchic class as a whole will trump any differences. Members of the oligarchy and bought-and-paid-for political tools may attack each other, but they will never get so vicious as to expose the overall class interests. It is very obvious that the full publication of all of the Epstein evidence would cause serious harm to the oligarchy as a whole as it would expose the widespread levels of disgusting wrong doing that pervade an oligarch class that assumes that it is above the law.

    ‘Israel’s war against the starved: The slow killing of Gaza

    Wednesday, 23 July 2025 — Al Mayadeen English

    Gaza is not starving, it is being starved by “Israel”. This is deliberate. An Israeli siege that weaponizes food. A blockade that turns bread into bait. An inhumane Israeli policy that forces children to die slowly, from hunger, not just bombs.

    For over a year, the UN has warned: famine in Gaza is imminent. But now, Gaza is collapsing. Aid is blocked by “Israel” and is used as a trap. Those who rush to collect it are met not with relief, but with bullets.

    What’s happening in Gaza is not a crisis. It’s a war crime. It’s starvation as policy. Genocide in slow motion.

    Supporting Palestine Action’s right to protest is not the same as supporting Palestine Action. It’s time for Keir Starmer to remember why human rights exist, says Clive Stafford Smith.

The richest 1% owns more than TWICE as much wealth as 6.9 billion people and the super-rich one percent of the world’s population has accumulated twice as much wealth as the remaining 90 percent, global charity Oxfam said in a newly-released report. The world’s richest 1% emit double the carbon of the poorest 50%, the 2020 Oxfam study found.
