December 8, 2024 Joe Lauria, Consortium News. Resist! NATO, Nuclear War, Russia, Ukraine, US Imperialism, Wars and Militarism, WWIII

Scott Ritter, the former U.S. Marine counterintelligence officer and chief U.N. weapons inspector joined forces with Medea Benjamin and Code Pink to lobby members of the U.S. Hose of Representatives to urgently act to head off what could be impending nuclear war with Russia. Ritter laid out the immediate peril the world faces, which is being dangerously ignored by most of the U.S. government and establishment media. That’s because U.S. intelligence services have foolishly concluded that Russia is bluffing, Ritter argued.

Catastrophe At The Ballot Box

The United States of America is on the verge of World War III in three different theaters. Its social economy and infrastructure are in tatters. It’s actively engaged in genocidal ethnic cleansing — killing tens if not hundreds of thousands of mainly children and women and spitting on every precept of humanitarian and international law — on behalf of an atavistic settler-colonial project. It is more than ever despised and less than ever feared in a world escaping its control. And in this catastrophic conjuncture, the U.S. political and media culture throws up two of the most incompetent figures imaginable to vie for the role of leading us into the abyss.

US And Israel Are Pushing The World To The Brink Of WW III

October 7, 2024 US Peace Council. Educate! Iran, Israel, Lebanon, Palestine, US Imperialism, Wars and Militarism, WWIII

Just short of one year since Israel’s criminal attack and invasion of the Gaza Strip and brutal bombardment and genocide of Palestine, the Zionist state committed yet another crime against humanity, on September 23, 2024. Israel carpet bombed Lebanon and assassinated the top leaders of the Resistance Front, including Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah, the widely revered leader of Hezbollah, and brigadier general Abbas Nilforoushan, commander of Iran’s Quds Brigade in Lebanon, among others. Since the start of this criminal attack, Israel has continued to assassinate more leaders of the Hezbollah, including the organization’s communications chief, Mohammad Rashid Sakaf, on October 4.

US-Israeli Rampage in the Middle East: Barreling Towards WWIII

October 3, 2024 AbMartin and Séamus Malekafzali, The Empire Files. Resistance Report Hezbollah, Iran, Israel, Lebanon, Middle East, Palestine, US Imperialism, Wars and Militarism, WWIII, Yemen

Israel has started a ground invasion into Lebanon with the approval of the Biden/Harris administration. This is following an intense bombing campaign by Israeli authorities against Lebanon killing hundreds of civilians and leaving thousands injured. Hezbollah, the militant group Israel claims it's targeting, has been engaged in cross border exchange with the Israeli military over the last year, primarily hitting military targets. This is a defensible military action considering they are trying to prevent a full-scale genocide in Gaza. Joining Abby Martin is Séamus Malekafzali to talk about Israel's invasion of Lebanon, the assassination of Nasrallah, and the potential for war with Iran. They are also joined by Empire Files producer Mike Prysner.

United States Congress Makes Down Payment On World War III

April 29, 2024 Roger D. Harris, Popular Resistance. Educate! Congress, Joe Biden, Military Aid, Palestine, Ukraine, Wars and Militarism, WWIII

The US Congress authorized a $95 billion military aid package for continuing the wars in Ukraine and Gaza as well as for war preparations against China. This represents, in effect, a downpayment on World War III. US President Joe Biden, reading from a playbook that could well have been scripted by George Orwell, announced: “it’s a good day for world peace.” And in order to dispel any doubt, he added, “for real.” Biden proclaimed: “It’s going to make the world safer.” In fact, the bipartisan authorization, passed on April 23, could nudge the doomsday clock a little closer to midnight.

Dan Kovalik: We Are Already In World War III

December 12, 2022 Margaret Flowers, Clearing the FOG. Podcast - Clearing The FOG NATO, Russia, Ukraine, Wars and Militarism, WWIII

Clearing the FOG speaks with Dan Kovalik, an author and lawyer with expertise in human rights and international law, about his recent visit to Russia and the Donbass region that was formerly part of Ukraine. Kovalik describes what he saw there and how the Russians he met view the current conflict as one between Russia and NATO at this point. Based on the direct involvement of the United States and NATO countries in the area, Kovalik argues that World War III has already begun and that the only way the West could fight such a battle, if it escalates, is through the use of nuclear weapons, which would devastate the planet but which are being normalized in Washington in a significant departure from previous beliefs. He concludes with his thoughts on what we in the United States need to do to prevent such lunacy.
