Back in September 2017 I wrote an article for the Unz Review site entitled “America’s Jews Are Driving America’s Wars” with the subtitle “Shouldn’t they recuse themselves when dealing with the Middle East?” The article focused on the fact that most of the individuals and groups in the US that were agitating for war with Iran in particular were Jewish and most did not hide their loyalty to Israel, headed then as now by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. I argued that it was a mistake to have Jews managing America’s relationships in the Middle East in particular as some of them certainly would experience a conflict of interest that would inevitably not be beneficial to the United States.

Senator Brown is a key target to ask to oppose the Fire Grants and Safety Act (S. 870).

That bill - only 4 pages that have nothing to do with nuclear - has had the Nuclear ADVANCE Act attached!

The ADVANCE bill has 3 major provisions:

(1) support for new nuclear reactors – think big public $$,

(2) international engagement and deployment – think nuclear weapons proliferation, and

(3) NRC streamlining. This would fast-track licensing of reactors and their new fuel, decrease safety measures on both existing and new reactors, and unbelievably, turning the NRC’s mission to promoting nuclear power. 

Contact Senator Brown’s office (202) 224-2315 in DC and (614) 469-2083 Columbus. 

Tell him NO on S. 870 until the money-wasting, dangerous nuclear bill is removed. 

BANGKOK, Thailand -- China let loose their robot dogs of war -- shooting machine guns mounted on their backs -- during Beijing's biggest military exercise in Cambodia May 16-30, amid a smoldering rivalry along the Gulf of Thailand used by China's Navy and the U.S. 7th Fleet's nuclear-powered aircraft carrier.

The 15-day Golden Dragon 2024 exercises were led by China's People's Liberation Army (PLA) Southern Theater Command guiding Beijing's closest ally in Southeast Asia, the Royal Cambodian Armed Forces.

The U.S. and China are taking turns wooing Cambodia's West Point-educated prime minister with guns, money and friendship, but the Chinese are scoring most of the rewards.

Just as Beijing's biggest military exercise in Cambodia ended, U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin arrived in Phnom Penh to offer military assistance and mend the often rough diplomatic relations between the two former wartime enemies.

Mr. Austin met Cambodia's Prime Minister Hun Manet and Defense Minister Tea Seiha during his one-day stop on June 4, after attending a Singapore defense forum where he met his Chinese counterpart Adm. Dong Jun.

Film title

On the first anniversary of when the inspiring whistleblower and peace activist Daniel Ellsberg passed away -- we’re inviting you to watch and share the new film “A Common Insanity: A Conversation with Daniel Ellsberg About Nuclear Weapons.”

You can watch the documentary for free by clicking here.

Powerful and concise in little more than half an hour, A Common Insanity provides never-before-seen footage as Ellsberg explains what he learned as a nuclear war planner, and as an independent researcher during the five decades after he revealed the Pentagon Papers.

The new documentary was directed by Oscar-nominated filmmaker Judith Ehrlich, who co-directed and co-produced The Most Dangerous Man in America: Daniel Ellsberg and the Pentagon Papers.
