As I do every week, I offer a link to the podcast page so visitors can listen or jump to my Substack page to watch the podcast or just read the narrative and embedded articles .
To start with, this week, I found a couple of news stories that aren't at the top of the news piles about the U.S. military. My first one should scare us, as it reports that some U.S. politicians want to see Israel a couple of B-2 stealth bombers, or a couple of old B-52 stratoforces, depending on what you believe after reading this. I find it hard to believe that the U.S. would be that foolish to sell Israel a couple of the new B-2's when they only have nineteen to begin with, according to this reporter. I postulate that if the U.S. were to sell a couple of those old B-52's, it would be fine, as long as the U.S. washes there hands of them once the sale is made. But you know that will never happen. There's too much money to be made so the U.S. military industrial complex will never sell anything without making a long term repair parts agreement.
The other story I found was about how the U.S. only has two aged ice breakers in the Coast Guard ship inventory and now they want more. Trump added this request into the big bill he signed last week. Apparently Trump feels the need to compete with the Russians. I think the Canadians shut him out after all of the insults and crazy tariffs. With no more Canadian ice breakers as their disposal, they have to make more, which will take years. By then, the Russians will own most of the Arctic.
I found an amusing story that came out right after the tragedy starting unfolding In Texas. Marjorie Taylor-Green, the republican representative from Georgia has decided that she doesn't like the idea of people deliberately manipulating the weather, so she is pushing a bill to make artificially screwing with the weather illegal. As if these idiots don't have more important things to worry about right now.
I use that as a lead in to talk about extreme weather in general happening around the world. From the mega storms in Texas last weekend, to the weird weather where I live on the central east coast of the U.S., to Kabul, Afghanistan, where they are running out of water due to global warming. I found a Ted Talk YouTube video by Al Gore, where he gave a talk about Climate Realism in Nairobi, Kenya. His warnings are still as important today as they were twenty years ago. I invite any climate activists or anyone worried about global warming to watch this video I linked in the article.
In this mix of news articles, I include a couple about the current war in the U.S. against migrants. The latest battles in Los Angles, and the new concentration camp in the Everglades of Florida are my target this week. I have a lot to talk about regarding Trump's war against undocumented immigrants so go take a look. If you have any shred of humanity, this should shock you and scare you all at the same time.
I end the podcast talking about Israel and Palestine, and the latest news about Israel finally allowing a little bit of aid into Gaza, all the while, killing the people as they try and get some food. There was a whistle blower leak about how American mercenaries getting in on the action to also shoot Palestinians as they Que up to get some food and water.
In part of this, I mention how the outrage in Britain regarding the protests at the Glastonbury music festival where the headliners chanted Death, Death to the IDF, and the British government became unglued over it. More and more these governments are reverting back to feudalism and autocracy. The U.S. is following right behind them with their own brand of authoritarianism.
The human world is tearing itself apart right now and it's only going to get worse in the coming years. In large part due to man-made global warming. As habitable land becomes less available in the next couple of decades, the wars to keep the climate migrants out of the global north will get worse. Countries like Britain and the United States are being shut out more and more over their imperialistic behaviours.
As we can see, the United States, and to a lesser degree Britain, aren't going to go away quietly.
Go raibh maith agat,
thank you for joining me here. I hope you enjoyed it
and that you'll return again to help me protest against the would be tyrants.
As I say good bye this week, I wish to leave
you with this rebel quote. "To be a rebel is to refuse to accept the
status quo, to challenge the powers that be, and to fight for a better
future." Slán go fóill.
