>British rapper Lowkey’s music has been entwined with activism since he first picked up a mic, and true to form, he joins Piers Morgan Uncensored with political fire in his belly. Openly anti-Zionist and pro-Palestine, Lowkey lays the blame for the ongoing conflict in the Middle East squarely at the feet of Israel. >Piers Morgan counters, saying that both Hamas and Hezbollah are fully committed to the destruction of the Jewish state, and their attacks would inevitably draw an IDF response. >Piers then brings in Lebanese-American terror commentator Brigitte Gabriel, who claims that Israel had always wanted peace, and withdrew from Gaza in 2005. Lowkey is shocked by her statement that "Palestinians have brought this on themselves", and directly accuses her organisation ACT for America of accepting funding from organisations that invest in illegal settlements in the West Bank.

>BlackRock and other asset managers are profiting off of every aspect of your life. It's not a conspiracy — it's an open restructuring of society. --- Key Points: >1. Asset Management Dynamics: BlackRock’s model relies on managing institutional funds, but the real money comes from everyday investors like pension funds. This disconnect limits public control over investments. >1. Universal Ownership Risks: Holding shares across various sectors can lead to anti-competitive behavior, as companies may avoid price competition, harming consumers. >1. Political Ties: BlackRock’s connections to government officials raise concerns about a revolving door that may lead to conflicts of interest in policy-making. >1. Voting Behavior: Asset managers often vote in line with company executives, prioritizing short-term profits over long-term sustainability, which can hurt broader stakeholder interests. >1. Shareholder Oligarchy: The shift from widespread shareholder democracy to concentrated power among a few asset managers diminishes individual influence and accountability. >1. Regulatory Challenges: Efforts to regulate asset managers like BlackRock face resistance, as they profit significantly from their current operational model, complicating oversight. >1. Public Awareness: Understanding BlackRock’s influence is crucial in advocating for a more equitable financial system that benefits a wider population.

>Dedicated to dialogue and peace! >At Dialogue works, we believe there’s nothing more unstoppable than when people come together. --- >Col. (ret.) Lawrence Wilkerson's last positions in government were as Secretary of State Colin Powell's Chief of Staff (2002-05), Associate Director of the State Department's Policy Planning staff under the directorship of Ambassador Richard N. Haass, and member of that staff responsible for East Asia and the Pacific, political-military and legislative affairs (2001-02). >Before serving at the State Department, Wilkerson served 31 years in the U.S. Army. During that time, he was a member of the faculty of the U.S. Naval War College (1987 to 1989), Special Assistant to General Powell when he was Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (1989-93), and Director and Deputy Director of the U.S. Marine Corps War College at Quantico, Virginia (1993-97). Wilkerson retired in 1997 and began work as an advisor to General Powell. He has also taught national security affairs at the George Washington University.
>The Thinking Muslim Podcast explores key issues in depth with esteemed Muslim thinkers, academics and scholars. --- >The ongoing slaughter in Gaza and now the carpet bombing of Lebanon has at its backdrop the US elections. Both Kamala Harris and Donald Trump have clearly stated their intentions to back Israel, and it is hard sometimes to place a cigarette paper between them. Some have sought to characterise Harris as a better candidate, suggesting she will be ready to restrain Israel, although with little evidence, and others have conceded her stance to be not dissimilar to Biden – but the other side, Trump, would be worse. They evoke the ‘lesser of the two evils’ argument to suggest that for Muslims, holding your nose and voting is better than not voting. >Not withstanding the fact that those using the lesser of the two evils argument previously asked American Muslims to vote for Clinton, Bush, Obama and Biden – all of whom seem to compete with Shaytan on how much evil they could dispense. But the height of evilness has been the execution of this genocide, which has been on the watch of the Democrats. So how should American Muslims respond to the genocide. Should they abandon Harris? I am planning to visit the US very soon inshallah and will be meeting with American Muslim leaders and others as I attempt to piece together an answer to these crucial questions. But to begin the conversation, I have invited back onto the show Sami Hamdi to share his thoughts.

>lets talk about an idol group that japanese society fears, atarashii gakko! --- >Key Points: >1. Empowering Authenticity: Atarashii Gakko! promotes the idea that everyone has something unique to offer, countering Japan’s conformity culture. This message resonates deeply in a society that often values uniformity over individuality. >1. Friendship Over Fame: The group’s foundation on genuine friendship results in natural interactions, creating a refreshing dynamic that contrasts with corporate idol groups focused solely on image and success. >1. Unconventional Themes: Their music explores quirky topics, from ghost stories to alien battles, which fosters creativity and innovation—qualities that Japan has seen diminish in recent years. >1. Cultural Commentary: Their lyrics often reflect the need for change in Japanese society, addressing complacency and encouraging youth to embrace their creativity rather than conforming to societal expectations. >1. Global Reach: With their signing to 88rising, Atarashii Gakko! is expanding their influence beyond Japan, showcasing their unique brand of music at international events like Coachella. >1. Relatable Content: Their unfiltered vlogs depict a fun and chaotic side of their lives, making them relatable and endearing to fans, while also breaking the mold of typical idol behavior. >1. Challenging Industry Norms: Atarashii Gakko! embodies a shift in the idol industry, advocating for freedom and self-expression, thus redefining what it means to be a successful idol group in Japan today.
>Julian Assange, accompanied by his wife Stella, took part in a parliamentary hearing on his detention and conviction - and their chilling effect on human rights - on 1 October 2024 ahead of a full plenary debate on this topic by the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) due tomorrow. >In his first public remarks since his release from detention at Belmarsh Prison in the UK four months ago, Mr Assange told parliamentarians: "I want to be totally clear. I am not free today because the system worked. I am free today because after years of incarceration I pleaded guilty to journalism. I pleaded guilty to seeking information from a source, and I pleaded guilty to informing the public what that information was." >He added: "It’s good to be back. It’s good to be amongst people who – as we say in Australia – who give a damn. It’s good to be amongst friends." >The hearing was organised by the Assembly’s Committee on Legal Affairs and Human Rights in the framework of a report on this topic by Thorhildur Sunna Ævarsdóttir (Iceland, SOC). Wikileaks Editor-in-Chief Kristinn Hrafnsson also took part. >In a recent draft resolution, based on Ms Ævarsdóttir's report, the committee expressed deep concern at Mr Assange’s harsh treatment, warned of its “chilling effect” and called on the United States, a Council of Europe observer state, to investigate the alleged war crimes and human rights violations disclosed by him and Wikileaks. >The committee also said it considers that the “disproportionately severe charges” brought against him by the US authorities, as well as the heavy penalties foreseen under the Espionage Act for engaging in acts of journalism, fall within the requirements set out in a 2012 Assembly resolution on the definition of a political prisoner. >On Wednesday 2 October, the Assembly – which brings together parliamentarians from the 46 Council of Europe member states – will debate and vote on the committee’s draft resolution. Mr Assange is expected to be present in the public gallery to watch the debate.

>Over the past two decades, US foreign policy objectives in the #MiddleEast region have largely failed; from the invasion of Iraq to the war in Afghanistan, and US interventions in Syria, Libya and Yemen. Today, as the US continues to support #Israel’s war on #Gaza, it stands isolated in the world community, in opposition to international law, and at odds with its own population that is demanding an end to the war. This opening session will address the legacies of US foreign policy, the challenges facing the United States today, the factors impacting foreign policymaking in Washington, and prospects for reforming US politics, as well as recommendations for the next administration. >Speakers >Jeffrey D. Sachs, Professor and Director of the Center for Sustainable Development, Columbia University; President of the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network; SDG Advocate for UN Secretary General António Guterres; Former Special Advisor to UN Secretaries-General Kofi Annan, Ban Ki-moon, and António Guterres >Khalil E. Jahshan – Moderator | Executive Director, Arab Center Washington DC --- >Key Points: >1. Historical Consistency: U.S. foreign policy has shown remarkable consistency across different administrations since the 1990s, indicating a deep-rooted approach rather than reactive changes to global dynamics. This suggests a systemic issue within the U.S. political framework that prioritizes military solutions. >1. Cost of War: The trillions spent on wars in the last three decades have not brought security but have instead increased debt and instability, calling into question the rationale behind these military engagements. This financial burden could have been redirected to more constructive international collaborations. >1. Diplomacy Over Dominance: The current foreign policy, which favors military interventions, should pivot towards diplomatic strategies that address the underlying causes of conflicts. This shift is essential for sustainable peace globally. >1. Impending Global Threats: The ongoing wars and tensions, particularly with Russia and China, pose serious risks of escalation into wider conflicts. Acknowledging these threats is crucial for any future policy formulation. >1. Need for New Approaches: Current U.S. strategies, rooted in past ideologies of unipolarity, are increasingly outdated. There is a pressing need to rethink and recalibrate foreign policy to align with current geopolitical realities, particularly the rise of other global powers. >1. Middle East Resolution: The key to peace in the Middle East lies in recognizing Palestine’s rights and establishing its statehood. Ignoring this issue perpetuates violence and instability in the region. >1. Impact of Elections: The upcoming elections may not significantly alter the trajectory of U.S. foreign policy, as entrenched interests and systemic issues often override individual leadership changes. This highlights the need for public and grassroots movements to advocate for change.

>The Electronic Intifada is an independent online news publication and educational resource focusing on Palestine, its people, politics, culture and place in the world. --- >As Israel continues its massacres in Gaza and escalates its attacks on Palestinians in the West Bank, Tel Aviv has launched a major aggression on Lebanon, which by Tuesday evening had killed almost 600 people and injured thousands more. >Ali Abunimah discusses Israel's Iron Dome, an anti-rocket system that is made up of ground-based launchers that fire volleys of interceptors to shoot down incoming rockets, and asks the question of whether Lebanese resistance organization Hizballah can exhaust it. >This is a segment from The Electronic Intifada's day 355 livestream. Ali Abunimah, Nora Barrows-Friedman, Jon Elmer and Asa Winstanley were joined by Yousef Aljamal, YousefAljamal, a prolific writer and analyst, and the Gaza Coordinator for the Palestine Activism Program at AFSC. #TheElectronicIntifada #TheElectronicIntifadaPodcast --- Edit: added summary below >Key Points: >1. Iron Dome Functionality: The Iron Dome is designed primarily for short-range threats, but its effectiveness diminishes against large-scale assaults. This indicates the need for a diversified defense strategy in prolonged conflicts. >1. Economic Implications: The high cost of Tamir interceptors poses significant financial challenges for Israel. This raises questions about the sustainability of the Iron Dome in extended warfare, as resources could rapidly deplete. >1. Stockpile Limitations: Experts express concern about the limited number of interceptors available. In a scenario of continuous bombardment, Israel may face a critical shortage of interceptors, hindering its defensive capabilities. >1. Hezbollah’s Tactical Advantage: By launching a high volume of cheaper missiles, Hezbollah could effectively exhaust the Iron Dome, demonstrating a strategic advantage in asymmetric warfare. >1. Exploiting Vulnerabilities: Hezbollah’s use of low-flying missiles and targeting Iron Dome launchers showcases a tactical evolution that could compromise Israel’s defenses. >1. Military Production Challenges: The U.S. military’s struggles with ammunition production mirror Israel’s challenges, highlighting a systemic issue within Western military-industrial complexes to produce effective, low-cost weaponry. >1. Broader Defense Strategies: The ongoing situation emphasizes the necessity for innovative military strategies that balance cost, production capabilities, and technological effectiveness in modern warfare contexts.

Now, IDF Chief Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi is saying he is "preparing" his troops for a ground invasion of Lebanon as part of a full-scale war against Hezbollah. >Palestinian-American Journalist Dr. Ramzy Baroud noted that the Israeli Military's performance in Gaza is a reminder that it is not remotely ready to take on Hezbollah on the ground—but Israel's genocide of the Palestinians in Gaza over the last year has also shown us that it doesn't care about logic.

>On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to Historian of the Middle East Dr. Assal Rad. She discusses how Western media has consistently whitewashed Israel’s crimes for years against Palestinians, the shaping of media narratives and the use of language to change perceptions of Israel’s occupation of Palestine, how institutional dehumanisation and demonisation of Palestinians in the US, UK and EU is necessary to justify the magnitude of Israel’s crimes, the media’s broad refusal to challenge the narratives of the US State Department and Israel, the role of corporations in corrupting the media and political landscape in the US to ensure their narratives of choice prevail, the double standards of Western governments and media when it comes to talking about Saudi-Iran & Saudi-Syria normalisation agreements in the Middle East as well as Iran’s alliances in the region, AIPACs vice grip on US politics and covert Israeli influence campaigns to influence US elections, the ideologies of US officials which lead them to whitewash and enable Israel’s crimes, and much more. #israel #Gaza #news --- Alt.

>Join CODEPINK Congress as we educate, activate and mobilize for peace legislation! >In Norman Solomon’s new Afterword in the paperback edition of his book War Made Invisible: How America Hides the Human Toll of Its Military Machine, the author excoriates the White House for arming a genocide with assistance from a negligent press. Soloman tracks events following the October 7th attacks on civilians and military in Israel, a few months after publication of the book in hardcover. The 31-page Afterword indicts the Biden administration for complicity in Israel’s genocide, a horror facilitated by Pentagon media stenographers who covered up, ignored or under-reported U.S-Israel war crimes. >We will talk to Norman about how the corporate press minimized Palestinian suffering, under-reported the Biden administration’s arms shipments, and failed to stand up for journalists risking their lives to cover the bloodbath. We will also acknowledge the reporters who joined in newsroom revolts against corporate overlords censoring their stories. >And.... >As President Biden considers sending US/NATO long-range missiles for Ukraine to strike deep inside Russia, it’s imperative we understand and educate others about the destructive role NATO plays in agitating and escalating war in Europe and beyond >Published to coincide with the 75th anniversary of the alliance, “NATO: What You Need to Know” is a must-read co-authored by Medea Benjamin and David Swanson. This sharp, concise account examines NATO's origins, structure, and its goals at a time of mounting global tension. >NATO has remade itself repeatedly, as its past purposes have disappeared. In the last 35 years it has been part of wars in Bosnia, Kosovo, Afghanistan, Iraq, and Libya. It has played a major role in Ukraine, and supported warmaking by Israel. NATO is now expanding rapidly, both in geography and in scope, adding partners from Colombia to Mongolia to Australia, and claiming a role in policing, immigration, economics, public budgeting, scientific research, and environmental protection. >Featured Guest: Author Norman Solomon >Norman Solomon is National Director of RootsAction.org and Executive Director of the Institute for Public Accuracy.
