It is hard even for attentive members of the public to fully comprehend the U.S. military budget.

“The scale of spending alone makes it hard to grasp. Public understanding of the costs of war is further limited by secrecy, faulty accounting, and the deferral of current costs,” I argued recently in a short paper for the Costs of War Project at Brown University. See The Costs of War: Obstacles to Public Understanding, November 14, 2018.

Neta C. Crawford of Brown University estimated the post-9/11 costs of war at $5.9 trillion through FY 2019.

The Occupation of the American Mind

Israel's Public Relations War in the United States

Despite receiving an overwhelmingly positive response from those who have actually seen it, The Occupation of the American Mind has been repeatedly attacked and misrepresented by right-wing pressure groups and outright ignored by virtually all mainstream media outlets and North American film festivals. To bypass this campaign of misrepresentation and suppression, we’ve decided to make the film available for FREE online so that people can make up their own minds about its analysis of U.S. media coverage of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

The new new anti-Semitism

Hiding Israel’s Crimes of State behind false claims of victimization

I along with many others am being victimized these days. They are being labelled anti-Semites, and in some instances, self-hating Jews as well.

This is a Zionist and Israeli effort to shut down our voices and punish our non-violent activism, with special venom directed at the BDS Campaign (Boycott, Divest and Sanctions) because it has become so effective in recent years.

The Catholic Church rose from the ashes on 26 August 1978, only to descend back to the lower depths 33  days later after then Cardinal Ratzinger (today Pope Benedict retired) and one other Cardinal ordered and arranged for the murder not only of The Most Holy Father John Paul I, but many other senior Church officials inclined toward piety and reconnection with the poor.

The role of the CIA — and the NATO fascist stay behind network — in murdering many of them — is of enduring interest.

I believe that the new Catholic Church summit on pedophilia will fail. The Cardinal from Chicago (the senior US official to the summit) does not appear interested in cleansing the Church or educating the masses.

Were the Church serious, The Most Holy Father Francis would launch a massive global conversation, investigation, and educational campaign with three objectives:
