State-level reforms for universal health care are laudable; they are not single payer.

I come at questions about policy from a different angle than most. I don’t believe in policy or politics at all. Specifically, I don’t believe that some humans (“rulers”) should get moral sanction to use violence against other people (“the ruled”) to get what they want.

Caravaggios målning Amor Vincit Omnia. I det antika Grekland fanns en tolerans för sexuella lustar som idag är tabubelagda eller varit det tills nyligen. I den nya boken Grekisk Eros beskrivs den antika sexualiteten och kärleken.” Lust, drift, passion går som en rödglödgad tråd genom antiken, medeltiden och modern tid, både vad gäller känslornas intensitet och aversionen mot för mycket eller ”fel” sorts sexuell utlevelse”. Så skriver Eva-Carin Gerö - professor i antik grekiska – i nya boken ”Grekisk eros, kärlek och erotik i det antika Grekland”.
Medicaid expansion is a cornerstone of the Affordable Care Act. Progressives demand it as sacrosanct, and Republicans abhor it. Simply put, expanding Medicaid will not be society’s cure for indigent health care. It’s the equivalent of putting a Band-Aid on a brain aneurysm.
Well, I figure I would start the new year with a bang.... I have been reading since yesterday some of the reports coming in about these "protests" happening right now across Iran, and I am no fool... These are absolutely 100% being fomented by the criminals in the US and Israeli governments who have made Iran their newest "target" for regime change in the Middle East...

As the year 2017 came to the closure, one couldn’t help but notice the deep wounds that it left on the face of this world. Among those one can mention the never-ending horror of the Syrian war, conflicts in Iraq, Afghanistan, Yemen, Ukraine, that are claiming thousands of innocent civilians, while affecting elder people, women and children the most. The victims of these conflicts won’t live to see the peaceful future tomorrow, if there’s one after all that killing.
Sputnik – January 2, 2018 Facebook and other Silicon Valley firms choose to comply with the requests of Washington and Tel Aviv to delete undesired accounts because they fear US and Israeli influential political elites, Philip Giraldi, a former CIA officer, has told Sputnik, adding that the practice, which he described as “illegal,” has become […]
It started with ferries.
Lord Chief Justice Hale considered the question of ferry regulation in De Portibus Maris in 1670. Even if a man owns the land and docks on both sides of a river, and owns a ferry that can be used to take people and cargo between them, he does not have the right to operate a public conveyance without the king’s permission.

While I am sure that my circle of male friends isn’t fully representative of the population of men at large, I was shocked to discover from my unscientific survey how many men have no clue about how to behave. Based on the combined responses of several women I trust, the number of men who say or do something offensive to a woman they don’t know on a dating app, almost right out of the gate, may be just shy of a majority.
Tjugondedag Knut åker granen ut. Den 13 januari slår knut på julen. Men det var också på den dagen år 1746 som Gustaf III föddes. Så här skriver Grimberg:
”Stort jubel vart det i Sveriges huvudstad tjugondedag jul 1746, då kanonskotten från Amiralitetsholmen förkunnade, att en prins blivit född i kungaborgen på Riddarholmen. Tvåhundrafemtiosex skott! Man grät av glädje, man föll varandra om halsen i översvallande förtjusning. På alla källare dracks den nyföddes skål och nätterna igenom genljödo gatorna av glädjerop.”
The west Houston congressional district (TX-07) is one of the most likely in the Lone Star State to flip from red to blue. The district, which stretches from West University Place and Belaire up through Spring Valley, Hunters Crook and Bunker Hill villages and west to Barker Reservoir and up to the Houston National Gold Club, Satsuma and Jersey Village. Traditionally red-- with a PVI of R+7-- Hillary beat Trump 48.5% to 47.1%.

The Republic of Kazakhstan (the RK) has the largest uranium resources, and the country has been the world’s major producer and supplier of this material for several years. The sale of uranium is one of the major export items in the Republic. This business is becoming more profitable owing to the neighbourhood of Kazakhstan and China. The People’s Republic of China is now constructing many new atomic power stations in its territory, and the most favourable supplier of fuel for them is the RK.
The good news for 2018 is that the barbarous wars in Iraq and Syria may finally be coming to an end.

Сanadians are supposed to be the Boy Scouts or Girl Guides of the international community. Canada historically has been an excellent multilateral player in a rules-based international order, the “go to” country to call for peacekeeping, and liberal internationalist to the core.

Who defeated the Islamic State In Syria?
President Trump is a new phenomenon on the American political scene. Not a professional politician begging for funds but a rich man who spent his own money and raised money on his own name: he arrived in office unencumbered with obligations. Free from a history in politics, he owes nothing to anyone.

Det finns en dikt som jag tycker passar bra att läsa både på nyårsafton och på nyårsdagen. Det ger stunden lite mer av allvar och högtidlighet. För visst ska man ha kul när man firar nyår, men några minuters eftertanke behöver inte förstöra kvällen, särskilt inte när tanken är klädd i ett poetiskt språk som gör framförandet till en skönhetsupplevelse.
Det är Heidenstams dikt ”Sverige” som jag valt till den bästa nyårsdikten. Klinga i glaset under middagen, begär uppmärksamhet och läs högt och tydligt. Hemma med familjen eller borta bland vänner.
We’ve seen it over and over again. In Libya, western interventionism was justified under the pretense of defending human rights when the goal was actually regime change. In Ukraine, empire loyalists played cheerleader for the protests in Kiev when the goal was actually regime change. And who could ever forget the poor oppressed people of Iraq who will surely greet the invaders as liberators?

December 31, 2017: It is a dream come true being back among friends in Kabul! Streams of dented Toyotas (They are all Toyotas!) with windscreens cracked like bolts of lightning still jockey for position on roads where traffic lights and common sense hold little sway. Carts of vegetables drawn by donkeys or dragged by men without dreams continue clotting the already stuttering traffic,[Read More...]
Jewish identity politics complicate the Palestinian response to the existence of Israel as a Jewish state. Sometimes it seems impossible to address the crux of the matter, the Jewish state Nakba in Palestine, without being subjected to attacks one way or another. On the last day of 2017, I posted a meme on my Facebook wall that provoked a long and heated argument. The meme[Read More...]

Derrière la « résistance » anti-trump et le « scandale » du Russie-gate, il y a une volonté troublante de faire taire la dissidence aux États-Unis, en étouffant les informations qui remettent en question les récits officiels, écrit Robert Parry.

Etwariya Devi, a 67-year-old widow, died of hunger and exhaustion on 25 December in Sonpurwa village of Majhiaon block of Garhwa district (Jharkhand).

The family has a hand-to-mouth existence and is routinely unable to access adequate nutrition. Surviving the day on[Read More...]

Alors que la politique étrangère du président Trump tombe profondément sous le charme israélo-saoudien, ses diplomates du Proche-Orient attisent le conflit contre l’Iran et réprimandent l’Irak, comme l’explique Paul R. Pillar, ancien analyste de la CIA.
Dear Countercurrents family (present and future)— 2017 was a tough year all around. Hot and cold wars continue, the environment further degrades and Trumpism/Putinism/Modiism reigns. One can get depressed- forlorn even- by the array of monsters to fight. Humanity in many ways appears to be stepping backwards, embracing narrow and racist nationalism, further eroding the rights of women, reveling in[Read More...]
By Dennis J. Bernstein | Consortium News | January 1, 2018 A changing-places moment brought about by Russia-gate is that liberals who are usually more skeptical of U.S. intelligence agencies, especially their evidence-free claims, now question the patriotism of Americans who insist that the intelligence community supply proof to support the dangerous claims about Russian […]
