“Much more important, however, is the salient fact that Israel has now intervened...”
– Robert Fisk | The truth is that after Israel’s air strikes, we are [more openly] involved (via theamericanbear)
This is very true. The US hasn’t criticized Israel’s air strikes and won’t at all.

Until Monday morning, Kiera Wilmot was a well-behaved student at Bartow High School in central Florida with good grades and an interest in science. But that morning, she mixed some chemicals together in a small water bottle that caused a tiny explosion. There was a bang and some smoke, but nobody was even close to being hurt.
I remember doing experiments like that in high...

mohandasgandhi:
Kathryn Bigelow’s Osama bin Laden revenge-porn flick Zero Dark Thirty was the biggest publicity coup for the CIA this century outside of the actual killing of Osama bin Laden. But the extent to which the CIA shaped the film has remained unclear. Now, a memo obtained by Gawker shows that the CIA actively, and apparently successfully, pressured Mark Boal to remove scenes that made...

Listen, I realize everyone has their own ways to deal with tragedy. I’m definitely not one to say “this is not time to politicize.” Everything is political and everything that happens within our government has an impact on how we live with our every day lives. For example, it…
This is utterly ridiculous. Comparing guns to tornadoes is absurd.

Anonymous asked: In reference to that other Anonymous guy, I will say that while the ecological and health impacts of factory farming are significant, it puts a lot of food on a lot of tables, and you can't deny that
Anonymous asked: yeah, but "not so long ago" the human population was smaller. as in a few billion smaller. good luck feeding 7 billion with bushmeat and berries.

to-theleft:
I got one of Howard Zinn’s books out of the library and I told myself it was because it would help me prepare for the AP U.S. history test on Wednesday but let’s be honest, I’m actually a 17 year old girl who enjoys reading Zinn for pleasure…
That is so cool. I am impressed that you are reading Howard Zinn for pleasure. There’s also the graphic novel version of the book as...

We must transcend #capitalism NOW!
I have argued time after time on twitter that capitalism has failed humanity and the world. I haven’t brought this into public because I haven’t clearly articulated my position on this topic partly by refuting arguments made by those who defend capitalism.
The first argument comes from Johan Norberg in his book, In Defense of Global Capitalism. He wrote that “the diffusion of...
