"Although there are far worse things about the utterly gratuitous and literally unjustified war on Iran, the fact that it burns through billions a day is striking, given that huge cuts are being made to environmental protection and national parks, and the forest service is being effectively sabotaged, while public lands are being offered up to fossil fuel companies and mining interests. The forest service headquarters are being moved across the country, which will probably cause many resignations, like the similar move of the Bureau of Land Management in Trump’s first term. More than 50 forest service research stations are being cut, meaning more loss of irreplaceable ongoing research, data, facilities and staff."

The US failure to provide universal access to all human beings during the pandemic, which continues, raises an important legal question. Is the US in violation of Article 6 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), which protects the “inherent right to life” and prohibits the “arbitrary deprivation of life?” (The ICCPR is a treaty the U.S. ratified, unlike the majority of human rights treaties.)"

Health care activists in the U.S. have a huge struggle to get the corporate media to take the human right to health seriously. The corporate media reports on some injuries and deaths, but their doom and gloom scenarios typically conclude nothing can be changed in this private, insurance-controlled s...
