The Anti-Empire Project with Justin Podur.

War, geopolitics, political economy, from an anti-imperialist perspective. Books on Gaza (Siegebreakers), Congo/Rwanda (America's Wars on Democracy in Rwanda and the DR Congo), Venezuela (Extraordinary Threat, with Joe Emersberger), Haiti (Haiti's New Dictatorship). Other nonfiction and fiction writing on my site, podur.org.

Israelis demonstrating at Sde Teman in the most unjust cause imaginable; Netanyahu and Smotrich both driven out of town by the people of Majdal Shams; Iraqi Resistance declares the truce with the US to be over; and the usual reports from the fronts.
