The state of Israel is reviled by most people in the world as a genocidal, war criminal nation. Money, influence peddling, and brute force ensure that international condemnation is not allowed to thwart zionist and imperialist objectives.

Feb. 11 — On Tuesday night, the Federal Aviation Administration shut down the sky over El Paso, Texas. The FAA issued a 10-day flight restriction, grounding all commercial, cargo, and general aviation at El Paso International Airport. The agency classified the airspace as “national defense airspace.” It warned that the government “may use deadly force” against any aircraft in violation. No one told the city, the airport, local lawmakers, or even the chair of the Senate Homeland Security Committee.

We have unprecedented access to information.
We have an unprecedented ability to map networks of power.
We’ve just had a massive dump of files documenting the inner workings of a global criminal mafia.
This should be a golden age for journalism.
But instead we get slop. Empire-brained, imperial slop.

The Secretary of State has told the president that talks are happening with high-level Cuban officials. No such talks exist. Purported negotiations in Mexico? Actual fake news.

A crisis is rapidly developing in Cuba, as the Trump administration’s efforts to block fuel from reaching the island have become increasingly effective since an executive order threatened tariffs on any country trading with Cuba. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has buckled under the pressure and halted oil deliveries to Cuba. Drop Site’s José Luis Granados Ceja reports on the catastrophic consequences of the energy starvation.

Claims by officials in Washington that “Cuba’s collapse is imminent” usually coincide with a tightening of the blockade. Yet, once again, Cubans have reaffirmed their commitment to the revolution and their creative resistance in the face of the latest US attacks.

How much it means to me.
I have been thinking about Fidel Castro a great deal these past few weeks. The Cuban Revolution is being squeezed by the United States government with more force than ever before. The Trump administration is preventing the entry of fuel into the island, which has made it very difficult to run basic services (including life saving equipment in hospitals). Basically, the Trump regime has decided to violate all the norms of human behaviour to try and demolish the living conditions of eleven million people.

Iran is the southwestern pivot of Central Asia, an Iran defeated and subjugated by the US and Israel opens up the underbelly of Russia, provides entrance into the “Stans”, delivers utter dominance of the Straits of Hormuz, and even a border with Pakistan. So much more than the West lost when it left Afghanistan. Such a subjugation and defeat would be a disaster for both Russia and China. The latter invested money in Iran, and buys Iranian oil, but it has not flexed its military and security service muscles to make Iran strong enough to deter US aggression.

I have tried my best to stay away from the Epstein files (except the emails between Epstein and Chomsky), away from the emails and the text messages, the ugly code language about child rape (hot dogs and chickens), and the cavalier jokes from celebrities about ‘cute girls’ and about trips to Caribbean islands. But clips from these emails keep appearing in the feeds of social media and they are often sent by friends who find interesting titbits from the vast trove of a dead man’s gmail account.

In Minneapolis, the same city where George Floyd was murdered by police officer Derek Chauvin six years ago, two people have been killed in recent weeks by ICE agents during protests. Renée Good and Alex Pretti were both US citizens. These deaths point to a darker reality unfolding in the US, one marked by the open use of authoritarian and militarised power. It is a reality that should concern people everywhere. In 2025 alone, a record 32 people died in ICE custody.
Thursday, 5 February 226 — Foxglove You’ll have seen the news about Peter Mandelson — allegations of leaked government secrets, the payments from Jeffrey Epstein, emails advising US bankers to “threaten” the UK government, the police investigation, the resignation from the House of Lords. But there’s a question that isn’t yet being investigated: what did Mandelson do for Palantir?
