Blogger’s Note: The Israeli State routinely carries-out extra-judicial executions of Palestinian prisoners, POWs and wounded, etc. This means these male, female, and child victims have not stood trial – primarily because the resisting of Israeli aggression is permitted a “right” under “International Law”. It is Israel which is occupying and invading Palestinian territory – and not the other way around. As the Palestinians are not committing any crime resisting Israeli aggression – they cannot be “tried” in a criminal court as no law is being broken. As the UN, ICC, and ICJ – as well as numerous other humanitarian organisations – have confirmed that the Israeli State is committing “Genocide” in Gaza – the idea that Israel can treat POWs as common criminals is “illegal” as “Prisoners of War” are not considered subject to Civil or Criminal Law in the conventional sense. Israel already possesses the Death Sentence as part of its (civilian) Criminal Code – but seldom uses it against its own citizenship. The distorted Zionist thinking here – is that if the Israeli State passes an “illegal” law to “execute” POWs (acting under the false assumption that this would remove the grounds for the allegation of “Genocide”) – the world community will look the other way – the sad thing is that this could well be the case.

Fort Bragg: Barracks of Broken Promises
A buddy of mine just PCSd to Fort Bragg and was moved into the in-processing barracks. This is what he was welcomed with. Apparently the officer that was responsible for showing people to their rooms just made sure their key cards worked and dipped when it worked, not stepping foot in the room. Are there no barracks NCOs for in-processing barracks at Bragg? I’ve PCSd twice and the barracks NCOs made sure my room was spotless. Even in Korea I left my in-processing barracks room better than it was when I moved in. Obviously military barracks/housing is notorious for being shitty but this is a no shit unlivable environment. Who should this be reported to so bare minimum health standards are actually adhered to?
I’ll have a Big Mac, Filet-o-Fish with extra tartar sauce & a large fry.

Army Altering How It Inspects Barracks as Bragg Troops Are Evacuated from Moldy Housing
The news comes as Fort Bragg, North Carolina, officials have begun to move some 1,200 soldiers from the base’s mold-infested Smoke Bomb Hill Barracks in a seemingly unprecedented relocation effort almost guaranteed to stress-test garrison logistics and pour an influx of new renters into a local housing market already bursting at the seams.
…
Roughly 50 rooms in the 12 Smoke Bomb Hill Barracks were discovered to be infested with mold after a complaint from soldiers to Army Secretary Christine Wormuth in early July spurred inspections from Daly and Sergeant Major of the Army Michael Grinston. The problem is mostly the result of leaky mid-20th century air conditioning systems, which are difficult to repair and costly to replace.
Fort Bragg is far from the only installation with moldy facilities. But the Smoke Bomb Hill Barracks were already set to be demolished in roughly five years. The Army decided to accelerate that timeline and now plans to demolish 12 buildings next year, while renovating five others in a $150 million plan.
Tyranny & Tantrums: A Rant on America’s Collapse
America is to going to hell in a hand basket, and the cracks in its foundation are glaring. As Linkin Park’s Burn It Down echoes, “We’re building it up to break it back down,” the cycle of destruction and collapse feels all too familiar. Institutions meant to uphold democracy are being dismantled, only to be rebuilt on even shakier ground. Power is concentrated in the hands of a few, while the vulnerable are left to fend for themselves. Like the song’s imagery of betrayal and downfall, the current political landscape mirrors a system that prioritizes control and greed over people. The flames of collapse are fanned, and the question remains—what will rise from the ashes?

Trump Admin Is Misleading Public About Venezuelans at Guantánamo, Attorneys Say
After Kristi Noem, the newly confirmed secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), traveled to Guantánamo Bay earlier this week, she told CNN the Venezuelan migrants being transferred to the notorious U.S. naval base and military prison are “the worst of the worst that we’ve pulled off our streets.”
Immigration attorneys say the facts on the ground do not support Noem’s official narrative about what’s going on at Guantánamo Bay, where President Donald Trump has ordered the construction of a tent city in order to detain up to 30,000 migrants, regardless of the site’s capacity, including asylum seekers fleeing violence and poverty. For civil rights groups, the transfer is only the latest in a series of legally dubious efforts by the federal government to dodge constitutional requirements by incarcerating people at the notorious offshore facility.
Trump Admin Is Misleading Public About Venezuelans at Guantánamo, Attorneys Say
Nothing about the previous attempts by the US government to overthrow the Venezuelan government.
Support for Truthout comes from assorted left-leaning foundations and individual contributors. Major foundation donors include the Schumann Media Center, the Lannan Foundation, and the Cloud Mountain Foundation. Other donors include former militant extremist and academic William Ayers. Another donor is the Park Foundation, an environmentalist grantmaking group focused on opposing fracking, or drilling for natural gas.

How the U.S. Drove Venezuelans North
When they request asylum in the United States, migrants have to say something against their government. But everyone in the Venezuelan community knows that it’s a lie. Venezuelan comedians in Florida, like George Harris, joke about the Venezuelans lying to the migration people just in order to receive asylum.

Alexandra Kollontai: Prostitution and ways of fighting it
Alexandra Kollontai: Prostitution and ways of fighting it
What is the fundamental quality of the working class? What is its strongest moral weapon in the struggle? Solidarity and comradeship is the basis of communism. Unless this sense is strongly developed amongst working people, the building of a truly communist society is inconceivable. Politically conscious communists should therefore logically be encouraging the development of solidarity in every way and fighting against all that hinders its development – Prostitution destroys the equality, solidarity and comradeship of the two halves of the working class. A man who buys the favours of a woman does not see her as a comrade or as a person with equal rights. He sees the woman as dependent upon himself and as an unequal creature of a lower order who is of less worth to the workers’ state. The contempt he has for the prostitute, whose favours he has bought, affects his attitude to all women. The further development of prostitution, instead of allowing for the growth of comradely feeling and solidarity, strengthens the inequality of the relationships between the sexes.

China’s Naval Power Surpasses US – US Geopolitical Reach Exceeds its Industrial Grasp
US geopolitical reach exceeds its industrial grasp
By Brian Berletic
In order to contain China, the US must maintain military and economic primacy over China. Nevertheless, its ability to do this has come into question in recent years due to the continual rise and growing strength of China, and the demonstrated growing weakness of the US itself.
