    India’s gaffe at Samarkand

    Tuesday, 20 September 2022 — Indian Punchline

    by M. K. BHADRAKUMAR

    Prime Minister Narendra Modi (L) met with Russian President Vladimir Putin at Samarkand, Uzbekistan, September 16, 2022

    Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin at Samarkand on September 16 after the SCO Summit turned into a media scandal. The Western media zeroed in on six words culled out of context in the PM’s opening remarks — “today’s era is not of war” —  to triumphantly proclaim that India is finally distancing itself from Russia on Ukraine issue, as the US and European leaders have been incessantly demanding.

    Police response to anti-monarchy protests shows the need for Netpol’s Charter for Freedom of Assembly Rights

    Friday, 16 September 2022 — NetPol

    There has been outrage at the arrests. But protest is not illegal!

    #NotMyKing and police

    There has been outrage this week at the arrests and threat of arrest of anti-monarchy protesters. However the arrests have also led to a lot of misinformation and alarmist statements about the law and our right to protest.

    Thursday, 15 September 2022 — NetPol

    There has been considerable press interest in the fairly small number of arrests (or threats of arrests) of anti-monarchists since the Queen’s death on 8 September.

    When the so-called “Leader of the opposition” opposes protest against a new unelected head of state, out of respect for the previous unelected head of state, you know you live under totalitarianism.

    Royal Money: Charles III and the Wealth Dimension

    Friday, 16 September 2022 — CounterCurrents

    by Dr Binoy Kampmark

    Once the fixated adoration with the late Queen Elizabeth II starts cooling, the accountants of public welfare and decency will be stunned to realise the costs and wealth associated with the royal institution.  Her successor, Charles III, is continuing in that vein, a jarring note of wealth and pomp even as prices rise and the hefty bills for citizens (should we say subjects?), bite.

    In June, I wrote an analysis of Britain’s disturbingly draconian new Sections of that bill give every appearance of having been specifically drawn up in order to undermine Palestine Action.

    Openly committed to damaging and destroying the British-based assets of top Israeli arms manufacturers, including Elbit Systems, Palestine Action has since launch in mid-2020 pulled off a string of successes, resulting in the closure of the company’s sites, and abandonment of offices by companies leasing space to Elbit.

    Chris Kaba – a family fights for justice

    Thursday, 15 September 2022 — Institute of Race Relations

    The accession of a new monarch has led many to question the nature of their citizenship (along with their right to protest). But the citizenship of many British citizens, particularly Muslims, has been in question for some time. A new IRR report, Citizenship: from right to privilege by Frances Webber shows how changes in the law over the past two decades have made citizenship precarious, disposable and contingent for a number of minority ethnic Britons, mainly Muslim, leading to a ‘second class citizenship’ for British Muslims.

    by M. K. BHADRAKUMAR

    A US Senate commission in 1975 counted eight assassination attempts by CIA agents on Fidel Castro during 1960-1965

    In the Russian journal Natsionalnaya Oborona (National Defence), the chief of Russia’s foreign intelligence Sergey Naryshkin has written a riveting essay on the 75th anniversary of the Central Intelligence Agency, which falls on Sunday. It is an unusual gesture, especially in the middle of the hybrid war in Ukraine.

    Russian missiles have hit a reservoir dam near the southern Ukrainian city of Kryvyi Rih, officials say.

    Lee Camp proves that NATO and the U.S. want their proxy war in Ukraine to be fought to the last Ukrainian. A new report shows that Russia and Ukraine had negotiated a peace deal in April.However, as Camp explains, NATO wasn’t ready for peace so they intervened to stop it. Now, after months of grueling conflict, Ukrainian forces have suffered catastrophic losses and their friends in NATO are pushing them to face worse.

    The eastern Ukrainian countryside is being littered with Ukrainian Army mines while some towns have been abandoned as residents had to escape Ukrainian Army shelling.

    Residents consider Americans who send money to the Ukrainian government in the belief that they are protecting them from the Russians to be “idiotic” and “foolish.”

    Dear friends,

    Greetings from the desk of Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research

    Grave news comes to us from the United Nations (UN). The latest Human Development Report (2021–22) records that for the first time in thirty-two years, the Human Development Index has registered a second consecutive year of decline. The previous five years of gains in areas such as health and education have been negated by this reversal. ‘Billions of people face the greatest cost-of-living crisis in a generation’, says the report. ‘Billions already grapple with food insecurity, owing largely to inequalities in wealth and power that determine entitlements to food. A global food crisis will hit them hardest’.

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.
