Re: Let's all work less
John A Imani
<<Not only would we be much happier if we work less, but the planet would be better off for it. Work is mostly a misery to be avoided, resisted and reduced...While capitalism is exhausting the supply of natural resources and sending our ecosystem into a death spiral, it is long overdue to focus our organizing on work. We need to shift our focus to organizing against work, not for more work...We need to introduce “work share” so that those with too little work can pick up the work of those of us with too much.>>
The above statements would be true...under developed socialism.
Today, the problem is not that we work too much. The problem is that we work too little. The problem is what we are doing. The problem is what we are not doing...under capitalism.
The problem is that the above quoted statement founds its logic upon the situation facing ‘First World’ nations and, even then, only a portion of the workforces thereof. In the ‘FW’ how to account for the unemployed and, even lower on the socio-economic rungs, the lumpen-proletariat (here defined as those long out of work, out of social benefits, out of hope, even out of shelter, etc). Those exiled to modern-day versions of historic Molokai. Those whose very visages are sights to be averted by the eyes of the better-to-do.
Why is the southern so-called ‘border’ here crowded with those seeking work but herded and shuttled as if livestock and not living human beings? Why is this same phenomenon playing out world-wide? Is there no work to be done in their homelands? Is there nothing to do? Nothing that needs to be done? When there is so much to do?
The workers of the non-‘FW’ find their homelands doubly-desecrated, initially by colonial imperialistic terraforming of their natural economies so as to be suited to the needs and desires of the ‘FW’ers; and today--where that initial rape and ransacking has not faltered and there are still commodities worth extracting--those left out, the non-’FW’ers and where they ‘live’, look so much akin to LA’s Skid Row and the many ‘American’ blighted, impoverished, ghettos and barrios, that save for language, mirror themselves as each other’s mirrors.
There is but one way to stop the migrations, work. Work done by the native populations so as to reengineer their homelands to fit their own needs. Environmentally sustainable work enabled and paid for, as it ought be, by the former colonial and the present still scavenging powers. Healthy foodstuffs and health care. Clean water and clean shelter. Disease control and disease elimination. Education facilities, etc. Etc. Etc. Etc. The West owes this because of their original sins of colonization and exploitation.
And it is much the same here. There is but one road leading to the resurrection of the Lazarus layers of the populations here...work. And work with initially paid trainings. There those residents of the Kalaupapa peninsulas that are the inner cities might find dignity, peace of mind, harmony within themselves and with their neighbors.
The alternative, the continuation of the state of affairs as is, will not only continue but, inevitably almost unimaginably, become even worse than the hell holes existent. |

Thomas Friedman and the Myth of Democratic Israel
Dennis Brasky
Israel is in the process of putting together an aggressively racist rightwing government under the leadership of the unprincipled Benjamin Netanyahu. This is not the first such repugnant government Israelis have elected. Indeed, at least three prior times in its short history, the Israeli Jewish electorate has chosen ideologically committed fanatics (in those cases, having the additional allure of terrorist pasts), as their leaders: Yitzhak Shamir, Ariel Sharon, and Menachem Begin. Nor were these judgments of the electorate exceptions that were somehow contrary to Israel’s national character. They were all, as is now also the case, logical outcomes of a national point of view—represented by Israel’s Zionist state ideology—which has always been fundamentally racist, and which, on frequent occasions, raises to frenzied heights often in reaction to the legal resistance of its Palestinian victims.
However, diaspora supporters of Israel often disregard these historical facts. That they do so is testimony to the power of the propaganda-generated myth of a liberal, democratic Israel—the idealized Israel that so many just know in their hearts, could be and should be the real Israel. One of those who seems to mistake the ideal for the real is Thomas Friedman, columnist for the New York Times, who often writes about Israel. https://www.counterpunch.org/2022/12/23/thomas-friedman-and-the-myth-of-liberal-israel/ |

Netanyahu’s ‘hands are on the wheel’ again — and Joe Biden is just fine with that!
Dennis Brasky
The Biden administration is giving Israel's new radical right government the thumbs up. "Bibi Netanyahu is in charge of this government, okay? He’s made it very clear that his hands are on the wheel, and we’ll work with him. And most importantly, Joe Biden has a strong working relationship with Bibi Netanyahu,” says US Ambassador to Israel Tom Nides. |

UC graduate student workers end historic strike with big wage gains

UC graduate student workers ratify labor agreement, end historic strike with big wage gains by Teresa Watanabe, Los Angeles Times, Dec. 23, 2022 https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2022-12-23/uc-grad-student-workers-ratify-labor-agreement-end-historic-strike-with-big-wage-gains University of California graduate student workers on Friday ratified a new labor agreement with big wage gains, support for child care and new protections against bullying and harassment, ending a historic strike that upended fall term finals and has reverberated nationally. In separate votes, two bargaining units of United Auto Workers approved the tentative agreement reached last week with the 10-campus university system — six weeks after 48,000 teaching assistants, tutors, researchers and postdoctoral scholars collectively walked off their jobs in the nation’s largest strike of academic workers. SRU-UAW’s 17,000 graduate student researchers backed the agreement with 68.4% on a vote of 10,057 to 4,640, securing their first UC contract after forming a union last year. UAW 2865, which represents 19,000 teaching assistants, tutors and other student academic workers, approved the agreement with 61.6% of the votes, 11,386 to 7,097. “The dramatic improvements
to our salaries and working conditions are the result of tens of
thousands of workers striking together in unity,” Rafael Jaime, UAW 2865
president, said in a statement. “These agreements redefine what is
possible in terms of how universities support their workers, who are the
backbone of their research and education enterprise. They include
especially significant improvements for parents and marginalized
workers, and will improve the quality of life for every single academic
employee at the University of California.” . . . |

Seven Theses on American Politics by Dylan Riley and Robert Brenner
New Left Review, Nov.-Dec. 2022 https://newleftreview.org/issues/ii138/articles/dylan-riley-robert-brenner-seven-theses-on-american-politics In the weeks following the 2022 us midterms, the mood in the intellectual penumbra of the Democratic Party swung wildly from impassioned handwringing to euphoric self-congratulation. Dire warnings of a ‘red wave’ delivering large congressional majorities to the Republicans gave way to jubilation at the salvation of democracy. In reality the results were decidedly mixed. The Republicans took the House with a narrow majority, while Democrats retained their slim hold on the Senate. The Republicans swept Florida and flipped a handful of districts in New York. Reproductive rights had a fairly good night, but Democrats continued to fare very poorly with non-college-educated whites––according to one poll, Republicans won over 70 per cent of white men without a college degree. . . . ... We need a language to describe the new Bidenist project; ‘neo-progressivism’ is perhaps the best term. In content and intention it remains as far from socialism as its social-democratic and neoliberal forebears; but it is nevertheless a distinctive historical formation which must be theorized and studied on its own terms. A final note. We offer these theses in an experimental and provisional spirit. Though rough and unfinished, they hopefully indicate at least some of the central issues that must be tackled head-on if the current, exceedingly odd, political period is to be grasped. Time-worn shibboleths and old patterns of thought will be inadequate to navigating whatever is coming next. # # # |

NY Times: Charlene Mitchell, 92, Dies; First Black Woman to Run for President
Alan Ginsberg
She was the Communist Party candidate in 1968 and later led the campaign to free Angela Davis. But she eventually split with the party. Charlene Mitchell, who as the Communist Party’s presidential nominee in 1968 became the first Black woman to run for the White House, died on Dec. 14 in Manhattan. She was 92. Her death, in a nursing home, was confirmed by her son, Steven Mitchell. Ms. Mitchell joined the Communist Party in 1946, when she was just 16, and over her long career worked at the intersection of issues that have come to define the left’s agenda for the last 50 years, including feminism, civil rights, police violence, economic inequality and anticolonialism. Her rise in the party leadership came at a moment of crisis. The Communists had been decimated by the repressive tactics of the McCarthy era, then by the exodus of members disaffected by the Soviet invasion of Hungary in 1956. By the late 1950s it counted barely 10,000 members, down from its height of about 75,000 in 1947. To find new recruits, the party drew on its roots in radical civil rights activism to appeal to a new generation of Black leaders. Ms. Mitchell joined the party’s national committee in 1958; she was its youngest member ever. In the 1960s, she founded an all-Black chapter in Los Angeles called the Che-Lumumba Club, which quickly became one of the most active in the country. The club’s choice of namesakes, the Argentine Marxist Che Guevara and the Congolese leader Patrice Lumumba, pointed to Ms. Mitchell’s abiding insistence that the American left had to be rooted in an international matrix of freedom struggles. She traveled widely, meeting fellow leftists in Europe, South America and Africa, and she was among the first Americans to highlight the plight of Nelson Mandela and the anti-apartheid struggle in South Africa. By 1968 she was one of the best-known and most widely respected American Communist leaders. “I don’t know of anything that Charlene was involved in where she was not the leader,” Mildred Williamson, who met Ms. Mitchell at a 1973 anti-apartheid conference in Chicago, said in a phone interview. Ms. Mitchell became the Communist Party's presidential nominee when she was just 38. At its convention in Manhattan, she accepted the nomination below a banner that read “Black and White Unite to Fight Racism — Poverty — War!” “We plan to put an open-occupancy sign on the White House lawn,” she declared and, taking a swipe at the pet project of the first lady, Lady Bird Johnson, added, “We propose to put a woman in that house to beautify not only our highways but to beautify ourselves.” Her run for office came four years before the New York congresswoman Shirley Chisholm became the first Black woman to seek the nomination for president from a major party.  In contrast to the student movement, which was largely male, middle-class and white, she offered a vision of the left that was rooted in the experience of working-class women of color. Among her acolytes was an assistant professor at the University of California, Los Angeles, named Angela Davis. After Dr. Davis was arrested in 1970 for providing weapons used in the killing of a Marin County judge, Ms. Mitchell led her defense committee. Dr. Davis was acquitted in 1972, and Ms. Mitchell used the experience to create the National Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression, a group that, in its focus on police brutality and the legal system, foreshadowed later racial justice movements. “Black Lives Matter and modern Black feminism stand on the shoulders of Charlene Mitchell,” Erik S. McDuffie, a professor of African American studies at the University of Illinois, said in a phone interview. “I don’t think I have ever known someone as consistent in her values, as collective in her outlook on life, as firm in her trajectory as a freedom fighter,” Dr. Davis said at a 2009 event honoring Ms. Mitchell. Charlene Alexander was born on June 8, 1930, in Cincinnati. Her parents were part of the Great Migration of Black Southerners who moved north in the first part of the 20th century — her father, Charles, came from Georgia and her mother, Naomi (Taylor) Alexander, from Tennessee. Her marriages to Bill Mitchell and Michael Welch both ended in divorce. Along with her son, she is survived by two brothers, Deacon Alexander and Mike Wolfson. When she was 9, Charlene, her parents and her seven siblings moved to Chicago, where her father worked as a Pullman porter and a hod carrier. He was also active in the labor movement and served as a precinct captain for Representative William L. Dawson, one of the few Black members of Congress. The family settled in Cabrini Homes, a mixed-race public-housing development on Chicago’s Near North Side, which was a center of left-wing politics. When she was 13, Charlene joined the local branch of American Youth for Democracy, the youth branch of the Communist Party. By the early 1940s she was already an activist, helping to lead a protest against a nearby theater, the Windsor, that required Black patrons to sit in the balcony. Black and white students, attending a matinee, simply switched places one day, and the theater dropped its segregation policy soon after. Ms. Mitchell studied briefly at Herzl Junior College in Chicago (now Malcolm X College). She moved to Los Angeles in the early 1950s and to New York City in 1968. Although Ms. Mitchell remained a committed socialist, she drifted from the Communist Party in the 1980s, especially after the death of Henry Winston, its most prominent Black leader, in 1986. The party, she came to believe, was becoming too focused on class issues at the expense of fighting racial and other injustices. “I am not suggesting that all of a sudden there was racism in the party, or that some people were mean, or anything like that,” she said in a 1993 interview. “You had a situation where attention to certain questions that African American comrades felt were important was downgraded.” After the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991, Ms. Mitchell joined more than 100 other party members in calling for the party to reject Leninism and take a more democratic socialist path. In retaliation, the party’s longtime general secretary, Gus Hall, froze them out of subsequent national committee meetings. Ms. Mitchell later left the party to help found the Committees of Correspondence for Democracy and Socialism, which sought to rebuild the left along more pluralistic lines. But she remained committed to the values of the far left, and of communism as she understood it. “The country’s rulers want to keep Black and white working people apart,” she said in a 1968 campaign speech. “The Communist Party is dedicated to the idea that — whatever the difficulties — they must be brought together, or neither can advance.”

When I go to Global Research and plug in ; Alex Jones, yes , there are https://www.globalresearch.ca/author/alex-jones , seven pieces , on their website from the Infowars Empire, but, do any of them , prove that Jones WORKS WITH or worked with Chossudovsky? Just looking at the current front page of Global Research, I see articles by Gideon Levy. Does he work with Chossudovsky? He has 8 articles on Chossudovsky's website, https://www.globalresearch.ca/author/gideon-levy . Some more from your piece : "“Fascist Ideas on the left ," these two paragraphs , which as well , lack hyperlinks to document your assertions. "Second, we have have Ramsay Clark, who helped develop COINTELPRO – the US government program to infiltrate and disrupt the civil rights/black power movement and the anti-war movement in the US in the 1960s. Later, Ramsay Clarkwas closely associated with the forces that overthrew the radical government of Maurice Bishop in Grenada. As a lawuer in private practice, Ramsay Clark also represented various international fascists. Today, Ramsay Clark is influential in the US “antiwar” movement through political work inside and with the Workers World Party, known as the WWP. Third is the example of former CIA agent Ray McGovern, who is a key figure in the US Party for Socialism and Liberation, commonly branded as the PSL...." COINTELPRO, lasted from 1956-1971 , (see, two books on COINTELPRO , downloadable via LibGen , https://libgen.is/search.php?req=cointelpro+&lg_topic=libgen&open=0&view=simple&res=25&phrase=1&column=def & https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COINTELPRO ) , Ramsey Clark was LBJ's AG only from November 28, 1966 – January 20, 1969 ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramsey_Clark ) , so was absent any role in COINTELPRO , such as reauthorizing wiretaps on MLK, Jr. in COINTELPRO's first decade of existence. Hardly helping to develop it. One of the books , you can d/l on COINTELPRO , " The COINTELPRO papers : documents from the FBI’s secret wars against domestic dissent," mentions Ramsey Clark as AG and any role in COINTELPRO , only twice. "President Johnson publicly announced, in the wake of the 1967 uprisings in Detroit and Newark, that he had issued "standing instructions" that the Bureau should bring "the instigators" of such "riots" to heel, by any means at its disposal," while his attorney general, Ramsey Clark, instructed Hoover by memo to: [U]se the [FBI's] maximum resources, investigative and intelligence, to collect and report all facts bearing upon the question as to whether there has been or is a scheme or conspiracy by any group of whatever size, effectiveness or affiliation to plan, promote or aggravate riot activity." The attorney general's memo further suggested the FBI expand or establish "sources or informants" within "black nationalist organizations" such as SNCC, the Congress of Racial Equality (CORE) and "other less publicized groups" in order to "determine the size and purpose of these groups and their relationship to other groups, and also to determine the whereabouts of persons who might be involved" in their activities." While not defensible from a leftist standpoint, if that is all WardChurchill and his co-author could come up with , methinks one bends the stick way too much to say Clark developed it . As for Clark and Grenada, does acting as defense counsel for Bernard Coard , as noted here , in pieces you could have cited by hyperlinking them, https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2021/12/27/2021-obituary-ramsey-clark-520597 , https://www.salon.com/1999/06/21/clark/ , are you alleging Clark advised Coard et. al. prior to the killing of Maurice Bishop , this potentially giing Coard legal advice to be used , in Coard's defense ? The fascists ( though I quibble over whether all those noted in those two articles I just cited , which list his disreputable clients , which included Milosevic , were all fascists.

Re: America's New Sanctions Strategy
Marv Gandall
Thanks, Sam. I was unaware of the ISW’s close ties to the military industrial complex. The Institute was founded by military historian Kimberly Kagan of the Kagan clan, who taught at West Point and served as an advisor to the US military high command in Afghanistan. Her sister-in-law is Victoria Nuland. Board chair is the retired general Jack Keane, also chair of AM General, a defence contractor. Other board notables include retired Gen. David Petraeus, neocon William Kristol and - who else would you expect? - Joe Lieberman. More background here from two authors who strongly oppose the Russian invasion of Ukraine but who question the objectivity and credibility of the Institute’s reporting on the war.

Re: America's New Sanctions Strategy

Yes, I remember your making the same criticism previously. What I find most interesting about the ISW reports, which I scan quickly each day, is their reports of what the Russian “milbloggers” – the prowar military bloggers – say, as they provide some critical insight into the thinking “behind the lines,” both supportive and critical of the Russian military operation, that would otherwise be unavailable to someone like me. I am of course aware of the ISW origin and bias, but I think I am quite capable of contextualizing what I read. It is important in any conflict of this nature to try to acquaint oneself with the viewpoints of the major protagonists on all sides. This should be elementary for all of us on these lists. It helps to avoid the wishful thinking of so many pacifist-oriented observers who tend to substitute their dream of a negotiated peace for the reality of class and national conflict.

Hi Richard,
Aside from our debate over the war in Ukraine,, you should be cautious about describing the Institute for the Study of War as 'remarkably informed and accurate on the course of the Russian offensive and Ukrainian defense' (Art often does the same). They are generally understood to be integrated into the American state and especially its more conservative/hawkish wing. Even Newsweek has commented on their role - part of the Kagan cabal - in leading the fight for the surge in Iraq, claiming Iraq was a victory, calling for a further surge in Afghanistan, etc. I used to read it to see where the US military was at and a) its information generally came from the military itself and b) since it then repackaged the info to lobby for more military spending, interventions, and cheerleading the American empire, it actually wasn't all that accurate and useful even as straight info.

Falling rate of profit — not the end-all of political economy
michael a. lebowitz
In my chapter on 'Crises and Non-Reproduction' in Between
Capitalism and Community, I argue that there are negative
feedbacks to capitalist crisis tendencies and that many Marxists
tend to forget that 'capital responds to barriers to its growth by
finding ways to go beyond all barriers. Precisely because capital is
an actor, it has a tendency to restore the disturbed balances.' (In
the case of the falling rate of profit tendency, it finds ways to
drive up the rate of surplus value.) In fact, no crises as such
threaten the end-all of political economy but the crisis of the
Earth system but that is a crisis of humanity rather than one of
capital (and thus capital's feedback is not operative.) As I argue
in the book, only a working class that develops its capacities
through its struggles can put an end to the political economy of
capital. And that requires the appropriate political instrument.

I left for LA in 1963 and heard nothing about it. But its role as a model for the BPP is unmistakable. Even when entering the Black Power Movement (as an LACC BSUer) I heard nothing. Nothing from the BPPers who were at LACC nor from those I knew in the LA area. Don't recall seeing anything about it in their newspaper. I only listened to the Amy Goodman show and will try to chance upon the movement's film. JAI On Fri, Dec 23, 2022 at 5:16 AM <wytheholt@...> wrote:
