Good night 🌃😴

"In Cambodia, beauty and intellect became crimes: the beautiful were forced to marry the ugly, the educated to wed the illiterate. Cities, hospitals, and schools were erased. Millions were slaughtered on an industrial scale to forge a Khmer “master race.” This was a 20th-century fascist Holocaust—not in Germany or elsewhere in Europe, but in Asia—largely forgotten outside its borders." https://forumgeopolitica.com/article/stopping-the-murderous-khmer-rouge-how-vietnam-confronted-asias-forgotten-holocaust

"The final blow could come from former MP Artem Dmitruk of the "Servant of the People" party, who for the past month has accused Zelensky of involvement in the attempted assassination of Donald Trump and the successful one against Charlie Kirk." https://www.voltairenet.org/article223277.html

On November 28, US President Donald Trump Trump declared he will be pardoning former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez, who was sentenced to 45 years in a New York prison in 2024 for his role in helping smuggle 400 tons of cocaine into the US in a drug-running scheme linked to the Sinaloa cartel. Hernandez, Trump wrote, had been “treated very harshly and unfairly.” https://thegrayzone.substack.com/p/trump-pardons-convicted-narco-trafficking

"The bad news for white nationalism is that Europe’s genetic history has revealed that Europeans were mostly dark-skinned until the first millennium BC, and even then whiteness advanced slowly." https://savageminds.substack.com/p/sorry-white-nationalists

Trump Declares Closure of Venezuela's Airspace, IDF Kills Two Young Brothers in Gaza, and More https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HNw-6rc8Um8

Amnesty International concludes that, over a month after a ceasefire was agreed upon in Gaza and all living Israeli hostages were returned, the Israeli authorities continue to pursue the textbook definition of genocide “by continuing to deliberately inflict conditions of life calculated to bring about their physical destruction.” Moreover, Israeli leaders continue openly to affirm that this course of action is intentional on their parts. Dan Steinbock at Informed Comment recently made a similar argument, calling what the Israelis are doing “ecocide.” https://savageminds.substack.com/p/amnesty

⚠ Satire Alert ⚠ "If an asylum seeker visits a hospital, our biggest concern is that their journey is as uncomfortable as possible. Therefore, Home Secretary Shabana Mahmoud has banned sick or injured refugees from using taxis. It is unclear if she has also banned them from using ambulances." https://www.normalisland.co.uk/p/labour-party-bans-asylum-seekers

Michael J. Carley is a retired professor from the Université de Montréal, focusing primarily on Stalin and the Soviet Union. Prof. Carley argues that the West's bold historical revisionism to fit current geopolitics, results in failing to learn the wrong lessons from history. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mhl5qhHYEi8

The Repackaging of Colonialism. The UN resolution, passed on 14 November 2025, was a consolation prize to Israel after failing to achieve its ultimate objective from the two-year Gaza genocide: the ethnic cleansing of the population and the complete takeover of the Gaza Strip. https://savageminds.substack.com/p/unsc-resolution-2803 #freepalestine

"The official origin story of the Safari Club begins in 1976 at the Mount Kenya Safari Club, a lush resort better suited to couture safaris than clandestine war rooms. But beneath the palm trees and cocktail dinners, French intelligence chief Alexandre de Marenches orchestrated the birth of a covert alliance designed to do what the CIA, freshly restrained by congressional oversight, could no longer do openly." https://21stcenturywire.com/2025/11/27/shadows-of-power-from-the-safari-club-to-owens-allegations/

⚠️ Satire Alert ⚠️ "When about 20 of Nigel Farage’s former school mates accused him of racism, you would think our next prime minister would frantically deny the accusations, but such a denial is actually unnecessary. This is because most of Farage’s supporters don’t see his racism as a bad thing—it’s actually his only selling point. In fact, it’s not unthinkable that the accusations were started by Farage’s PR team because they are going down brilliantly with his voter base." https://www.normalisland.co.uk/p/nigel-farage-yes-i-was-racist-in

"Europe is in deep trouble today, mainly because of the Ukraine war, which has played a key role in undermining what had been a largely peaceful region. Unfortunately, the situation is not likely to improve in the years ahead. In fact, Europe is likely to be less stable moving forward than it is today." https://www.theamericanconservative.com/mearsheimer-europes-bleak-future/ (There is an audio version available on that website)

"In 1993, former DEA chief Judge Robert Bonner told 60 Minutes that the Cartel de los Soles imported over a ton of cocaine to the US under the direct watch of the CIA. The program quoted the DEA’s agent in charge in Caracas, Annabelle Grimm, as stating: “The CIA and the Guardia Nacional wanted to let the cocaine” enter the US, “without doing anything… no surveillance, no nothing.” After Chávez’s ascent, the Cartel de los Soles became a useful bogeyman, justifying American anti-drug operations which had been initiated by the US government." https://thegrayzone.com/2025/11/12/wh-insiders-knew-of-venezuela-coup/ nostr:nevent1qqswg384y24ku2qkhk65yjtvw5w98jjc7j57wth2typ9anm676fuywgpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgtczypxhsss9z7pwp5l7kq6dz59dc2mt4e8w8dyhseunhlaydzm0twttxqcyqqqqqqgddqqa7

The Right of Revolution and the Question of Secession A proper account of sovereignty must understand and reconcile it with the right of revolution, which is also elemental to international law. Every people has a right of revolution if faced with unbearable oppression. So said Thomas Jefferson in 1776. So said Abraham Lincoln in 1861. From the standpoint of the law of nature and nations, that is not a constitutional or positive right; it is a natural right. It inheres in human beings as a consequence of the natural rights they have to preserve their lives and liberties. "The principle of territorial integrity is only the external dimension of sovereignty—the more holistic concept. It is the application of international law to the external boundaries of states. But sovereignty also has an internal dimension: the right of a people to choose the sovereign whose authority they will abide by." https://peacediplomacy.org/2022/05/17/sovereigntys-other-half-how-international-law-bears-on-ukraine/
