"Danish troops told to 'shoot first, ask questions later' if #US invades #Greenland" No one sane and reasonable has a problem with this stance #Imperialism goons have a problem with it But of course, on the measure of sanity and reasonability, I repeat myself As an American, I say: shoot them And I know many if not most (sane and reasonable) Americans agree with me https://www.lbc.co.uk/article/danish-troops-shoot-first-us-greenland-5HjdQNW_2/ #Denmark #Danmark #USA #Trump

“Al-Aqsa Flood: Engaging & Imagining #Anticolonial #Resistance” @uk_politics@palestine@fedibird.com @Palestine@masto.ai@palestine@lemmy.ml @palestinenews@gts.liberated.press “Announcing a year-long #collaborative #study October 7, 2026 - On the third anniversary of the al-Aqsa Flood, the Institute for the Critical Study of Zionism [#ICSZ] announces a year-long project of study of this historic act of #Palestinian resistance and its meanings and consequences for our shared worlds and struggles for #liberation.” [..] “Those who normalize #Zionism and #imperialism often charge critical analyses of #Israeli state violence with ‘terrorism.’ The effect is that resistance—armed or not—is cast outside the boundaries of acceptable discourse or political theorization. This censorship is the foundation of public credibility, intellectual ‘reasonableness’ and objectivity, and whole fields of scholarly research. It is not accidental.” Join us to study Al-Aqua Flood and resistance” https://criticalzionismstudies.org/study-alaqsaflood/ #AlAqsaFlood

#Israel is backing four militias as part of a project to oust #Hamas and create a “new #Gaza,” according to a report released by Sky News on 25 October. "We are all for ‘The New Gaza.’ Soon we will achieve full control of the Gaza Strip and will gather under one umbrella,” he added. Astal added that the rifles used by his gang members are purchased from former Hamas fighters on the black market. “Ammunition and vehicles, on the other hand, are delivered through the Kerem Shalom border crossing after coordination with the Israeli military.” Sky News has revealed that these groups are receiving backing from Arab states as well. A photo featured in the report shows Abu Shabab’s deputy Ghassan al-Duhine, standing near a vehicle with a UAE-registered license plate. Additionally, the logos of two of the militias, one of them led by Astal, are nearly identical to those used by UAE-backed groups in #Yemen. The #UAE did not respond to a request for comment from the outlet. Regarding links to the PA, Astal said, “I have people within my group who are still, to this day, employees of the Palestinian Authority.” https://thecradle.co/articles/four-militias-backed-by-israel-arab-states-plan-project-new-gaza-to-dismantle-hamas-report #USpol #IsraelTerroristState #PalestinianAuthority #imperialism #gazagenocide@palestine@fedibird.com @israel@a.gup.pe

#Trump’s push to acquire #Greenland almost broke #NATO. The winner of it all may be ... Greenland. The new defense agreement signed on the sidelines of the #UNGA on Tuesday puts an end to the standoff between the US & one of its oldest & closest partners. It also marks a major step forward in Greenland’s push for greater autonomy and a more influential seat at the table. #imperialism #geopolitics #Denmark #Europe #NewWorldOrder #law #InternationalLaw #NaturalResources

Every U.S. anarchist has heard of anarchist-controlled Catalonia (1936-1937). Many have heard about Makhnovshchina, the anarchist autonomous zone in Ukraine (1917-1921). How 'bout the Korean anarchist autonomous zone in Manchuria (1929-1931)? Today in Labor History September 18, 1931: The Korean People's Association in Manchuria was dissolved by the Japanese, after they invaded and established a dictatorship over the anarchist autonomous zone. Two million Korean migrants lived in the autonomous zone, after having fled Korea in the wake of the Donghak Peasant Revolution of 1894 and subsequent Japanese invasion, in which hundreds of thousands died. The anarchist autonomous zone they created in Manchuria, in 1929, was built upon the principles of stateless communism and mutual aid to support the numerous refugees with food, shelter and self-defense. They were repeatedly attacked by both Japanese imperialists and Korean communists. #workingclass #LaborHistory #korea #anarchism #imperialism #japan #communism #mutualaid #dictatorship #Revolution #uprising

The system works for them. And it always has. We warned you time and time again. You had your bullshit excuses. No one cared about the suffering and despair in the world. People tried “green capitalism” or “social imperialism.” All just excuses. It was so comfortable. Even in your own affluent countries, there was nothing but hatred and racism. Then people said it was the working class’s fault—that they were doing it wrong and were to blame. Excuses, nothing but excuses. You knew exactly what was going on; you were told a thousand times. Every child who dies is another nail in the coffin of this degenerate system. Die. We simply don’t deserve anything better. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qd96jHtAODc https://word.undead-network.de/2026/09/15/the-system-works-for-them/ #anarcho #ausrotten #gaza #green #hypocrites #imperialism #kapitalism #punk #social #system #war

LoL: "A US government map of Africa mislabeled every country during a state department presentation at a ⁠global conference in Brazil ⁠this week, ​causing a stir among attenders who took screenshots and posted them online. Reuters viewed a video of the presentation given at the Aids 2026 conference in ⁠Rio de Janeiro, which shows the errant map displayed halfway during a presentation about the state department’s new health agreements. A Reuters analysis found the image of the map included ⁠in the presentation contained an artificial intelligence watermark that signals it was made with OpenAI tools. The ​company said it was investigating the report. The state ‌department said it took “full responsibility” ‌for the confusion caused and that the map had been produced by a team member who hastily changed ‌the slide deck before the event." https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jul/30/government-map-mislabels-african-countries?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other #USA #Africa #Geography #Imperialism #Neocolonialism

During ww1, imperial Britain made three conflicting promises - giving Palestinian land to different groups:

  • to the Arabs for an Arab state in exchange for an Arab Revolt against the Ottomans;

  • to France - to partition the territory into British & French domains; and

  • to the Zionists for “the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people”.

Today in Labor History July 25, 2010: WikiLeaks published classified documents about the War in Afghanistan, one of the largest leaks in U.S. military history. The leak included 91,000 Afghan War documents, covering the period from January 2004 to December 2009. Prior to the release, WikiLeaks made the logs available to “The Guardian,” “The New York Times” and “Der Spiegel.” The Times said the leak "offers an unvarnished and grim picture of the Afghan war." The Guardian called it "one of the biggest leaks in U.S. military history ... a devastating portrait of the failing war in Afghanistan, revealing how coalition forces have killed hundreds of civilians in unreported incidents, Taliban attacks have soared and NATO commanders fear neighboring Pakistan and Iran are fueling the insurgency." The documents also revealed that U.S. military contractors had hired local male child prostitutes. As a result of the leaks, the U.S. government launched a criminal investigation into Wikileaks, and its founder, Julian Assange, who spent years under British custody. And the U.S. fought aggressively to get him extradited to the U.S., where he would have faced multiple life sentences for espionage.

The whole column is worth reading, but just to expand a little on this comment about why the racist right is in such a frenzy about the #TheOdyssey cast: "[Black people don't belong, because] The Odyssey is a pillar of “Western civilization,” which they consider to be white. SO MUCH work went into constructing this view of a "Western Civilization" stretching from the ancient Mediterranean (or even Mesopotamia) to the northern European/American present, much of it carried out in the nineteenth century as part of an explicit program of racial and imperial justification. And the contortions to make it "white" are equally illuminating. #Renaissance authors who looked to the ancient past were much more acutely attuned to the distinctions between southern Europe with its connections to the Mediterranean, and the northern areas outside of Rome. 🎁 link: https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/07/odyssey-race/688058/?gift=2KhEOewKu103aR6RIOWuaqHRMEZxJM4PdCaSqDwGdkg&utm_source=copy-link&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=share @histodons #WesternCivilization #imperialism

https://www.nytimes.com/2026/07/23/us/politics/iran-troop-deaths.html?unlocked_article_code=1.0FA.EFBM.D1Or6UBs3B2n Three military officials said that one reason behind the change was that the Trump administration decided to remove four service members killed this past weekend from the list — three in Jordan and one in northern Iraq — because their deaths occurred after President Trump declared a cease-fire in the war in April. #uspol #MAGA #iran #trump #fascism #imperialism #classwar #cannonfodder #peteHegseth
