by Scott Horton | Dec 8, 2018 | Blog

Here their imperialist lackey "Lally"-something attempts to put the screws to Imran Khan, the new PM of Pakistan. He's an interesting guy. Too commie, but I like his independence.

Israeli Peace Activist Uri Avnery Dead at 94

by Scott Horton | Aug 20, 2018 | Blog

This is a terrible loss. Avnery was a good man and an essential historian of Israel's persecution of the Palestinians. He fought in the 1948 war and then immediately turned to spend the rest of his life pushing for independence for the Palestinians and peace. There...
