A new report by the global peace group World BEYOND War finds that military bases used by foreign militaries are growing in number, as are public protests and advocacy against those bases. Of 1,247 foreign military bases in the world, 877 of them, by latest count, are U.S. bases outside of the United States. Eighteen other nations, combined, have 370 bases outside their borders.

I like the citizen arrest process, although never tried it out. It means that you go up to a wrongdoer and cart him or her off to jail if you don’t fear that your head will be blown off with a gun by the perpetrator in the process …
Who is assessed to be guilty and the procedure about assigning guilt and punishment has some flexibility, obviously. Thank goodness for that all considered, especially since the letter of the law and the spirit of the law can radically differ in some circumstances, and ruining lives is only very rarely a viable option.

They bomb children, rob the treasury, cover up Epstein's client list, and term it democracy—what they're running is a pathocracy, and it's happening today.
American Pathocracy/Kleptocracy history and current news, untainted by Google, Youtube and Bing.
The American state, once a synonym for democracy, is now a pathocratic machine, an elite dictatorship using violence, surveillance, and plunder to implement the sociopathic desires of the powerful and the wealthy. This radical departure from democratic ideals manifests itself in their actions, whether bombing overseas and starving people through coercion, or plundering the wealth of the nation.

It’s that time again, actually way past due, as the lists of grievances are even fatter and quite arguably uglier. See evidence of a great sampler of what is finally way overdue:

Here, many will agree, is a great start. Our world now needs many individuals and researchers to equally engage in the political process of creating many newly revised drafts of a Declaration of Independence!!

The 2018 Skripal Attack Case
The current orchestrated Western policy of total Russophobia, directed by Collective West, can be recorded to start by the British Cabinet of Theresa May – the focal servant-dog to US global imperialism, followed by the creation of the War Cabinet of the US President Donald Trump (first administration), was a nothing else than a jumping to the new stage of the post-WWII Cold War (2.0) which was originally started (1.0) by the US and never was over as its main task of total economic, political, and financial subordination or/and occupation of Russia still is not realized. The Russian, at that time just diplomatic, an exodus from the Western jaw was a “punishment for Russia’s alleged nerve gas poisoning of a former Russian/MI6 double-agent, Sergei Skripal (66) and his daughter Yulia (33), who was visiting her father from Moscow”¹ (March, 2018).
However, it was quite obvious that “blaming Russia for Skripal attack is similar to
‘Jews poisoning our wells’ in the Middle Ages”.² In other words, the 2018 Skripal Attack Case was just another Western “false flag” in international relations with a very precise geopolitical purpose – to continue the Cold War 1.0 against revived post-Yeltsin’s Russia. We have to remember that originally American administration started the Cold War 1.0 as it was “the Truman administration (1945−1953) used the myth of Soviet expansionism to mask the nature of American foreign policy, which included the creation of a global system to advance the interests of American capitalism”.³ However, the current Western virus of total Russophobia (the Cold War 2.0) is a natural continuation of historical Western anti-Russian policy, which looked like to be over with the peaceful dismemberment of the USSR in 1989−1991.

This proactive Palestinian Pulverizers of humans, D. Trump who is indirectly responsible for the deaths of many thousands of Palestinian people of all ages, has no standing to say something like this utterly stupid statement about Putin:
Trump said Friday he was "very unhappy" about his telephone call with Russian leader Vladimir Putin, saying: "He wants to go all the way, just keep killing people, it's no good".
Does he really think that we, the populous who watch his eagerly gifted Israeli and Ukrainian slated bombs be used to tear apart people of all ages, all can’t see through his own hoodwinking, murderous double standards? Does he automatically think that we don’t see where our hard earned U.S. tax dollars are going? If so, he’s an even worse conniving and manipulative moron than I initially thought!

When the Republic Betrays, the Body Must Answer
Protest is not a right—it is a judgment passed upon power. A corrupt state standing above law and beyond justice forfeits its legitimacy, and we, the people, are compelled to answer—not with hashtags, not with op-eds, but with flesh. To stand inert while tyranny marches is not neutrality—it is treason by silence.
The body is the one language tyranny cannot mistranslate. It cannot be censored, throttled, or downranked. It does not seek retweets. It shouts in the town square and bleeds in the streets. It is the sacred site of resistance, where injustice is forced to confront the human soul it seeks to crush. A government whose sins are digitalized must face what it cannot digitize: our physical refusal.

The Reclamation of the Republic
When, in the Course of human events, it shall become absolutely necessary for the People to dissolve the political ties which have united them to a government that has betrayed its trust to obtain their liberties, a reverence for the sentiments of mankind demands that they should give the causes which compel them to reassert their natural rights.
It is the People who hold these truths to be self-evident that all men and women are created equal, endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights—among these, Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. It is the People who, to secure these rights, institute Governments, deriving their just powers solely from the consent of the governed. And it is the People who, when any Government becomes destructive of these ends, not only have the Right but also the Duty to alter or abolish it and to establish new safeguards for their future security.

I. Introduction: The Timebombs We Ignore
"Not with a bang but a bureaucratic shrug, the world ends."
- Revisionist reading of Eliot by the Anthropocene
There are catastrophes that arrive like earthquakes-abrupt, televised, unambiguous. Then there are those that slide silently beneath our notice, unfolding over decades, across disciplines, in ways that defy political attention spans and the quarterly gaze of markets. These are slow-motion extinction-level events-or SMELEs-a term not yet standardized in academic taxonomies but increasingly indispensable to those confronting the cumulative collapse of Earth systems.
A SMELE is not a single event but a chronic, compounding process that pushes biophysical thresholds past recoverable states. Unlike the cinematic notion of apocalypse-volcanoes erupting, cities vanishing overnight-SMELEs are civilization-threatening trajectories masked by their own inertia. Climate shifts by tenths of degrees. Oceans acidify imperceptibly. Soil ceases to yield. Life disappears, quietly.
