Food aid

The world is not providing enough food aid to feed the starving people in Yemen.

If Salafi Arabia and the US bomb Hodeida, the food aid couldn't reach Yemen anyway.

Wireless power for small snooping devices: is that an advance for the good, or is it dangerous?

Rich Foreigners

Kushner told rich foreigners they could get US residency by investing in his company.

He left out important business from his official diclosure form, too.

New approach to economics

A new approach to economics recognizes the limits imposed by nature and the needs of society.

Darwinian economics is another new perspective.

How Americans remember US wars

samedi 13 mai 2017 à 02:00

Americans remember only the parts of US wars in which the US was attacked or in which Americans acted admirably. They forget the parts in which US armed forces committed enormous terrorism.

I was particularly interested by the point about using the terminology "ground zero" to equate the September 2001 terrorist attacks (about 3000 victims, mainly American) with the US use of nuclear bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki (hundreds of thousands of victims, mainly Japanese). I have generally rejected the use of the term "ground zero" for the World Trade Center because it struck me as tendentious, but I never before understood why this was so.
