The tools and tactics of the federal response to the LA protests are taken from the US imperial playbook.
The boomerang has come home. The tools of empire, tested on Palestinians and perfected through decades of War on Terror legislation, are now being deployed against American cities. If we don’t recognize this moment for what it is—a fundamental assault on constitutional governance—we will wake up in a country where military force is the primary language of politics.

In the midst of an escalating global standoff over its nuclear program, the Iranian government this week claimed to have scored a major intelligence coup that could transform its relationship with its regional and international rivals. Over the past several days, senior Iranian officials, as well as government-connected journalists, have claimed that Iran is in possession of leaked documents revealing secrets about Israel’s nuclear weapons program and regional espionage network. More salaciously, some sources have also claimed that Iran has embarrassing personal information about Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his political rivals, revealing their alleged involvement in blackmail and criminal activity.

As were professional regime change operatives from countries whose governments the US is determined to topple.

According to the sources, the documents show that both official and confidential letters to the IAEA were channeled to Israeli intelligence services.
The report notes that these findings clearly demonstrate the IAEA has abandoned its neutral stance and is now acting as a tool serving the interests of the Israeli entity.

In early March, Libya launched an “oil and gas licensing roadshow”, seeking to “drum up interest” among international investors, and boost its oil production by 50%. Subsequently, representatives of Tripoli’s UN-recognised National Unity Government (GNU), and state-owned National Oil Corporation, have toured cities across the US and Europe, making “in-depth” presentations on the voluminous riches local oligarchs and corporations could potentially reap locally. It’s the first time the country has opened up exploration of its vast energy reserves to overseas bidders since 2007.

Campaigners said Sunday that Madleen, the humanitarian boat bound for Gaza, which is carrying 12 activists, including Swedish climate campaigner Greta Thunberg, would continue its journey “until the last minute” after “Israel” ordered its military to block the vessel.
“We’ll stay mobilised until the last minute, until Israel cuts the internet and networks,” EU Parliament member Rima Hassan told AFP from the boat, emphasizing that “There are twelve of us civilians on board. We are not armed. There is only humanitarian aid.”
The boat includes activists from Germany, France, Brazil, Turkey, Sweden, Spain, and the Netherlands.

“Just as has been the case throughout the Bush, Obama, and Biden administrations, President Trump will continue overseeing the use of extremist groups to advance US foreign policy objectives around the globe, including in the Middle East and specifically against the nation of Iran. President Trump’s lifting of sanctions on Syria and his normalization of the leader of a still US-listed terrorist organization demonstrates the vast disparity between President Trump’s rhetoric and the reality of what his administration is actually presiding over.”

It was opportune that I delayed the article on the geopolitical situation in the light of the drone attacks on Russian strategic bombers, one leg of its nuclear triad, the other two being submarines and inter- continental ballistic missiles. This attack by small drones launched from trucks adjacent to five airfields is the first focused attack on nuclear assets in the nuclear age. It crosses a line. The aircraft were parked in the open so they could be identified under the Start and Salt Agreements in force until 2026 making them easy targets.
