Raj Patel | Scientific American - TRANSCEND Media Service,
27 Sep 2021
21 Sep 2021 – “We know how to do better.

What a Travesty! Iron Dome Subsidy
Richard Falk | Global Justice in the 21st Century – TRANSCEND Media Service,
27 Sep 2021
25 Sep 2021 – For the US to pay the bill for Israel’s Iron Dome defense system used during the Gaza attack in May is a travesty of law and justice. And to gain support for such a measure by a vote of 420-9 in the U.S. House of Representatives should be an embarrassment for the strategic rationality of American foreign policy.

Howard Richards – TRANSCEND Media Service,
20 Sep 2021
YES! Today the conflicts of interest that created today´s unsustainable world no longer exist. NO! Most governments are fighting the economic impact of Covid by promoting growth through funding consumption, keeping banks solvent, and subsidizing business–to get people back to work. After the crisis, the same mental model will be employed to raise growth rates that in most of the world were already lagging before Covid, to bring down the numbers of those who were even then rejected by the labour market.

13 Sep 2021
11 Sep 2021 – On Sep 11 the world rightly pays homage to the victims of the 9/11 attack in the USA.

13 Sep 2021
11 Sep 2021 – Why was the discussion only about who did it and how did they do it but never about why did someone do this? If you look at the fact that the objects of the attacks were the centers of the US/world’s financial, military and political power – and not just a train station or some infrastructure – you’d have a diagnostic indicator.
