نخستین روز مدرسه

زمانی‌ که انسان به سن خاصی‌ می‌رسد جزوی از تاریخ می‌شود. تاریخ شرح وقایع گذشته است، و تک‌تکِ هر لحظهٔ هست را به بود تبدیل می‌کند! پاره‌ای از زندگی‌ خاطرات جالبی‌ هستند که می‌توان آنها را داستان نامید. در زیر دو داستان می‌آیند که به دلیل استثنائی بودن، و یا حداقل کمی‌ متفاوت بودن آنها، به داستان تبدیل شده‌ا‌ند. نخستین داستان در شش سالگی من روی داد که به تفصیل در اینجا می‌آید. سپس به داستان دیگری می‌پردازم که در همان سال اتفاق افتاد و آن آغاز ورود من به مدرسه و تحصیل بود. این دو داستان را تا به آنجا که به خاطر می‌آورم نقل می‌کنم.ا

The Undemocratic Reality of Capitalism

August 6, 2024
Fans of capitalism like to say it is democratic or that it supports democracy. Some have stretched language so far as to literally equate capitalism with democracy, using the terms interchangeably. No matter how many times that is repeated, it is simply not true and never was. Indeed, it is much more accurate to say that capitalism and democracy are opposites. To see why, you have only to look at capitalism as a production system where employees enter into a relationship with employers, where a few people are the boss, and most people simply work doing what they are told to do. That relationship is not democratic; it is autocratic.

After 300 Days of Israeli Assault, Many Gazans Too Malnourished to Donate Blood

August 2, 2024
As Palestinians and humanitarians around the world marked 300 days of horror in Gaza, an aid organization highlighted a pernicious consequence of Israel's nearly 10-month assault: A hospital in the northern part of the enclave was forced to turn away many who arrived to give blood to help those wounded by bombs and bullets because the potential donors themselves were too malnourished and sick.

‘Genocide Olympics’: Israeli soccer team plays in Paris as IDF bombs school in Gaza

August 1, 2024
On the same day that Israeli forces bombed a girls’ school in central Gaza, killing at least 30 people and injuring over 100, Israel’s soccer team was allowed to compete without sanctions at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Even though Paraguay defeated Israel 4-2, TRNN’s Dave Zirin reports that “Israel actually won this, because they were allowed to play at all.” In this on-the-ground report from Paris, Zirin covers the protests and politics surrounding Saturday’s soccer match.

Humanity Has Two Choices: Unification or Mass Suicide

July 29, 2024
The intensifying cascade of global crises including intractable wars, massive human rights atrocities, nuclear proliferation, climate change and environmental degradation, the growing inequality between the rich and the poor, recurring bouts of global financial instability, and the increasing risks of pandemics to name but a few, call to mind the warning sounded by Arnold Toynbee, one of the most highly-regarded authorities and foremost experts on international affairs and world history in the 20th century, that humanity would be faced with an existential crisis followed by his recommendation as to what we, the family of nations, should do in response.

No More Silence

July 27, 2024
I do not know how it is in your household, but in mine we have developed the practice over the past nine months of reciting to one another the most appalling of the news bulletins from Gaza that come our way from a great variety of sources. It is rather miserable to think life has come to this, reading aloud daily accounts of atrocities, but there is no turning away from the depths to which terrorist Israel has dragged the whole of humanity.

Butcher of Gaza Netanyahu Repeatedly Lied to Congress about Iraqi “Nukes,” and now Wants US War on Iran

July 24, 2024
Ann Arbor (Informed Comment) – Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is a master of misdirection, the technique master illusionists use to divert the viewer’s attention from the trick and to pull the wool over their eyes. He uses his slick American accent, his bulging eyes, his rhetorical flourishes, his maniacal certainty, to fool people whenever and however he can.
