I'm sick and tired of the Trump administration. Thanks for sharing this. At least Zohran Mamdani won NYC's Democratic mayoral primary (that's some good news in this barrage of shit).
Nuclear weapons are a curse upon mankind...perhaps most would agree. But now the world is stuck with it. So it seems what we now have is war on different grounds...the belligerent and arrogant hegemon (U.S. and Israel) demanding that it be the only one allowed to have nuclear weapons in what they have decided is "their backyard". Then using that as a pretext to continue their campaign of control in the middle east (and it's oil). We might note that the U.S. assumes a different posture when engaging in nuclear discussions with equal powers like, China and Russia. The problem for Americans is this Red and Blue cabal that has brainwashed much of the population, monopolized elections and undermined democracy at the behest of the Oligarchy. As long as America insists upon voting for and electing this cabal there can be no real and lasting change, just more smoke, mirrors, fairytales and war.
With regard to the exchange between Ralph and Trita re the potential effect of the press publishing far and wide the true casualty figures in Gaza, I tend to agree with Trita - I don't think it would matter - a genocide is a genocide, the deliberate erasure of a people, - and if the world is not sufficiently incensed enough by now to stop it, it will continue regardless of how many "numbers" of people are erased.
What I am wondering about is what is taking so long for the ICJ to rule that this is an actual genocide as opposed to a "potential" one, when it has met all the criteria for one, including avowed intent ...
I do hope Ralph will do a show examining why, when in fact the only thing Congress can do to stop Trump is to impeach and convict him, they haven't done it ....
Because Trump has the republicans around his finger. They are afraid of him. They will not go against him because the people he pardoned can go after them. there are some aides in congress, on the republican side, who have mentioned actual death threats to the ones who go against the "king". It could be just gossip and lies but I do think it is possible this is happening
I don't think it is only the Rs who are receiving threats, and some Ds have even been arrested ...
But that brings us back to why these folks are even in office in the first place, is it to serve "we the people", or to keep cushy jobs with status and benefits ... if they are there for the former, then they must understand that there are risks to performing that service - if they are unwilling to take those risks, they need to be replaced by those who are ...
I agree with you. I also think people are still very uneducated about politics in general. Many still hear socialism and think it is "pay more taxes" without benefits. If you talk to them and ask what they want, they want socialism, marxism ideals. But they don't know that. When presidential elections come, I talk to black voters and they still want to vote democrat based on this assumption that the democrats are "their party". There is no room for someone like Bernie. Young people are still apathetic, at least in Florida where I live, a place that trends republican, hate the democrats but prefer to stay out of it. A lot of education needs to be done. I admire the places where people are organizing and getting results but I don't see anything changing any time soon. Depressing
Confused on the words from Prof.Postol on Ukraine . Ukraine was attacked by Russian and Ukraine continues to be bombed by them. They are not the aggressors. Putin refused to be part of any cease fire . Like Israe in Gaza l Russia is the occupying force in Ukraine .
If the Ukrainian Gov't had abided by the Minsk Accords, allowing for semi-autonomy in Eastern Ukraine, and hadn't shelled, with many deaths, those eastern provinces - Russia would not have attacked ... I think you have to look further back in the history, perhaps even before the US orchestrated coup (remember "Cookies" Nuland?) of the duly elected Pres of Ukraine - because he wouldn't play ball with the EU.
There have been several times when Zelensky was willing to negotiate, and the West said NO, we will help you beat the Russians - he is willing to use his people as canon fodder in the US proxy war against Russia .... just as with Gaza, once the US makes it clear there will be no more aid, Zelensky will negotiate with Russia, and the sad part is, he will wind up with a much worse settlement than he would have years ago ...
As far as Russia refusing to be part of a cease fire - once burned, twice shy - as admitted by Merkle, et.al. - the Minsk Accord period was a delaying tactic, allowing the West to arm, train and supply Ukraine - and any cease fire now would result in the same ...
Thanks for this clarification. I was initially confused too but thought that Mr. Postol failed to mention the US and UK preventing Zelensky from engaging in peace talks.
Napolitano's guests on "Judging Freedom" were pretty unanimous in the last week on how Israel was being destroyed with over a half trillion in damage in their country. Too bad Iran didn't demand their surrender.
Why does Ralph keep saying: “Iran’s Nuclear Weapons Program”? It is a Nuclear Program.
Why does he think all Iranian air defense was gone? If so, Why did Israel stop if they could destroy whatever they wanted to end the Iranian government? To end the missile & nuclear programs?
I agree - I think a distinction should be made between a "nuclear program" and a "nuclear weapons program" - any nation should have a right to develop a "nuclear program", it's the weapons that are at issue - and the sad part is, Iran apparently had no desire for a weapons program - it joined, and was abiding by, the JCPOA deal that allowed for peaceful nuclear power, which Trump destroyed, and Biden did nothing to revive, so now when any potential negotiations, and negotiators, are torpedoed, literally, it must seem clear to Iran, as well as to other countries, that to feel "secure" you gotta have some nukes ..
Have you ever noticed Bullies only pick on the little kid in the school yard and then suddenly one day without notice you are playing on a school team you didn't want to play on or be with,,,, a Trump team and his selected team of hand me downs who were probably beaten and abused as kids who grew up and needed a dictator to give them directions and purpose in life,,, and so like many others beaten down and unsuccessful people ( not by choice) in the world who all gravitate to the Donald.
Meanwhile Trump and his team bullied Iran and Iran did nothing and Trump's team continuously claimed a victorious victory like all bullies do . Even some NATO kids languished praise on the bully while others like Ben and Putin continued to kill thousands of innocent people while many stood and still stand by .
Will the bullied kid fight back in years to come? No fancy high tech missiles or planes required nor a trillion dollar Golden Dome, over a 1000 containers are lost at sea each year , could one end up in your back yard ?
Or maybe the neglect of the impending climate disaster and CO2 -- global warming the highest in 14 million years will kill us all first, I bet it's going to be another "long hot summer,",,, ( sorry William Faulkner ) a condition devoutly not to be wished. Good luck America, have a great day my friend.
Trump says the nuclear sites in Iran were "obliterated" but hen is demanding that Iran allows inspectors to check them. If they were obliterated, then there is nothing to check. Just a little bit of better use of the english language would go a long way
Marbury v Madison 5 US 137 (1803) claims judicial review is implied power of US Constitution. However, this frivolous opinion stems from 5 US 179 when Chief Justice John Marshall asks what is forbidden from judges to review. Marshall goes on to assume what he is trying to prove.
However, 5 US 177 is correct that the US Constitution is superior, paramount law.
John Locke's 2nd Treatise of Civil Government (1690) Section 131 is correct that no rational person would chose society over a state of nature with the expectation of being worse off. The Declaration of Independence is correct that rights come from laws of nature and nature's God (exogenously determined).
Therefore, judicial review is an implied power if and only if the relation of the opinion to the US Constitution is reflexive, symmetric, and transitive.
If SCOTUS could constrain their frivolous opinions, and only write opinions that are in the same equivalence class of the US Constitution, then you all wouldn't be complaining about Trump because he wouldn't be able to act as he does.
All your problems with Trump (or Biden, Obama, Bush, Clinton, etc.) are because of SCOTUS and only because of SCOTUS.
Might I humbly suggest that there is a remedy, which has been used on a number of occasions , for an errant SCOTUS decision - it is called a Constitutional Amendment so that, after passage, that is what the Constitution from then on says . It is a lengthy and difficult process, to be sure, but it is provided for in the Const. itself .....
Currently, as a remedy for CU, e.g., there is a motion in the House, HJR 54, the "We the People Amendment" which clearly states that Corp.s are not People for purposes of Const protections and Money is not Speech - this would allow Congress to regulate campaign finances which it claims it can't do now because of CU. The question is does Congress really want to regulate it - or do they prefer the present system where the Parties compete for gobs of money for their seats ...
And then of course there is the ability of Congress to impeach a Pres for breaking his oath to abide by that Constitution - and a decision to impeach and convict a Pres for such offenses is not subject to review by the SC ...
Bottom line, our problems with the SC and Trump, et.al. could be dealt with by the Congress that we the people put in office ...
A question for Ralph. You had several guests in the show that know a lot about Hamas, have interviewed leaders of the organization and they all said that the reason Hamas is undercounting the dead is because they only count deaths of people who have been identified, even if by one body part. Everyone knows that there are way more dead in the Gaza but it is not because Hamas has an interest to keep the numbers down. It is their process, like it or not. I also think that it does not help them to show lower numbers because the whole world population, going against their governments, would not blame Hamas for not protecting their civilians. Everyone knows they cannot escape what Israel is doing. So, why are you Ralph, insisting on that narrative of Hamas benefiting from undercounting?
[W]ith over 100,000 people killed in Gaza, fewer than 1000 have been combatants.
But even the numbers shown in the Haaretz article are an undercount . . . 177,000* people are unaccounted for, the majority of whom are presumed dead
Throughout the genocide in Gaza, Zionists have attempted to undermine numbers from Gaza’s Health Ministry, with the mainstream media across the board referring to it as the “Hamas-controlled Gaza Health Ministry." . . .
“Israeli spokespersons, journalists and influencers reject with knee-jerk disgust the data of the Palestinian Health Ministry, claiming that it's inflated and exaggerated. But more and more international experts are stating that not only is this list, with all the horror it embodies, reliable – but that it may even be very conservative in relation to reality.”
In reality, the paper found that “the combination of casualties from violence and those who died from diseases and hunger led to the death of 83,740 people prior to January”, noting that “since then, more than 10,000 people have been killed, and that doesn't include those in the category of excess mortality." . . .
*Correction: A previous version of this article stated that there were 377,000 Palestinians unaccounted for in Gaza based on Yaakov Garb’s study.
His study did originally have the total population decline at 377,000 people, but this was apparently based on a typo where he claimed there were 500,000 residents in the Al-Mawasi region, where he meant to write 700,000.
I agree with Parsi--i don't believe the true death count in Gaza would make any difference at this point to Media, politicians, or policy makers, or even Americans who support or acquiescece to Trump's power. Those of us Americans who care, the brave few but growing politicians and leaders who defy, and independent media bringing us the truth have known since the beginning of this truer count lying beneath the rubble and have spoken to it as credibly as possible. Ralph blaming Hamas is a futile rant and his assertion the Media and politicians would care or make a real difference is naive, unrealistic--maybe born of despair or panicked wishing. There is no quick fix or sudden shock capable of undoing the destructive downward spiral that the power field is gorging itself on. The only way to change this oppression and criminal power play is through the united resistance and visionary challenge of activists organizing people on the ground, building a steady strong growing base with a vision for the future of the people, for the people and by the people. It has always been true in any authoritarian regime. Any revolution against tyranny and murder. And any country's citizens who did not organize against and fight, and accepted the lies, they were broken, descimated. Whole countries leveled by murderous wars.
We the people are doing it. It is building, growing. Impeachment is possible - there will be no kings here. There's work to done in the next 3-and-a-half years. Ralph has always known this and advised it, yet, sounding as if in a panic and blaming marginal contributors to this lethal mess like Hamas (who is strictly going by the actual body count so as not to be discounted as False reporting, to retain at least credibility), Ralph is suddenly believing to wake up the show's power-players who have no shock level they could not shrug off. The power structure must be brought down by the people. Stand up, collaborate, join, petition, march and/or make our voices count in any small way possible. Talking is over, time to act. There are no saviors on high, we must align together, empowered, and take our country back. We have to wake up, get out there and save ourselves. Accountability is the call now.
And Ralph devaluing Iran's prudent and possibly savvy actions (e.g., the attack on America's largest military installation following the US attack, without human casualties, which possibly spurred Trump to demand a ceasefire vs prompt US further actions) and rashly claiming Iran's military failure and hopeless inferiority--which Parsi corrected, as with another rash political claim--it doesn't help us, or Gaza, to get where we need to be, informed and empowered by the objective truth.
Ralph knows this because he is the living example of it: one person empowered with a vision of solution born of caring, against one industry at a time, who collaborated, cajoled, networked and built new coalitions and progress, proved that the organizing power of citizens works. It started with a seat-belt and continued into a country-wide crusade to serve the people and fight the powerful giants. Successfully. 60 years, is it? Of tireless organizing and countless battles won for the American people and our industries.
We could start by insisting out legislators sign on to HJR 54 - a Const. Amendment that would overturn CU by stating that Corps are not People for purposes of Const. rights and money is not speech -
I'm sick and tired of the Trump administration. Thanks for sharing this. At least Zohran Mamdani won NYC's Democratic mayoral primary (that's some good news in this barrage of shit).
Zohran is a defund the police and jails moron
Not true at all.

Since nuclear fission isn't explosive, nuclear weaponry may be also smoke and mirrors.

They don't have enough votes
That doesn't answer the question .... why don't they?
Because Trump has the republicans around his finger. They are afraid of him. They will not go against him because the people he pardoned can go after them. there are some aides in congress, on the republican side, who have mentioned actual death threats to the ones who go against the "king".

Undercount of Gaza deaths? Why doesn’t Ralph scream about Israel not allowing in the media, UN or other independent groups to assess the damage?
He has been. On many shows previous.

Some useful interviews in the program.
Israel doesn’t allow independent media reporting & Israel is undercounting the damage
Nonsense
Indeed, it is nonsensical that Israel doesn't allow ind. media -
Just to clarify - it is nonsensical for Israel to exclude ind. media
