Well I guess it is timely that we will have our Peace Teach-In coming up on September 23. It looks like we are going to need it—the sooner the better. Thanks for being part of it.Fab.

Yes, it does, but they’re not without opposition, even from unlikely places. Even Sessions [!] is "resisting the US war machine…”

“...Sessions, stalwart of the America First camp, has long been ‘the biggest skeptic in the room’ when the subject of a continued presence in Afghanistan arises in meetings of Trump’s war cabinet ... ‘The A.G. asks the same question: Is this what we were elected to do? And the answer to the question is no.’” <http://original.antiwar.com/justin/2017/08/15/way-trump-administration/>.

I don’t know Carl. According to today's Newspeak Times, it looks like the warmongers are firmly in control. How do you see it? fab.

"Hysteria reigns on what is essentially a fight of identity versus class politics. The key variable to watch from now on is how — and if — Trump, helped by outsider Bannon, may emerge as the winner, finally empowered to implement economic nationalism.”

"American privilege is being able to celebrate the removal of the only figure in the administration who was resisting the US war machine because he has said offensive things.”
