Wars and Militarism

At Army–Navy Game, Activists Confront Trump Over Venezuela

December 15, 2025 Sharon Black, Struggle La Lucha. , , ,
Baltimore, Dec. 13 — Activists shifted the spotlight from the pageantry of the Army–Navy game, using Donald Trump’s attendance as a platform to center a powerful demand: “No war on Venezuela.” Hundreds lined the streets outside the stadium where Trump was scheduled to appear, unfurling banners that read, “No war on Venezuela and Palestine” and “No to ICE — Money for jobs, education, and health care.” Andrew Matatag, representing the publication Struggle-La Lucha, drew a sharp contrast. “Almost every police agency on record — from the Secret Service to Homeland Security — is amassed here today to protect Trump,” he said.

Year In Rear View: What The Lack Of Principled And Pronounced Opposition Reveals About US Left

December 12, 2025 Anthony Karefa Rogers-Wright, Black Agenda Report. , , , , , , ,
Nearly one year into President Trump’s second term, residents of the United States and the world over have witnessed a louder and faster drumbeat towards full-blown and irrefutable fascism and authoritarianism. We have seen our streets and neighborhoods invaded by masked agents of the State from the Immigration Customs and Enforcement (ICE) division of the Department of Homeland Security who are conducting wholesale roundups and pillage of non-white people from their families, places of employment, and communities, national guard troops patrol streets in many of our cities adding to a culture of fear and uncertainty, especially for non white poor and working class people.

Europe In Panic Over US Strategy For Stability With Russia

December 9, 2025 Alastair Crooke, Consortium News. , , , ,
A National Security Strategy (NSS) is produced periodically by U.S. administrations (President Donald Trump authored one during his first term). Mostly these documents lay out an idealised version of an administration’s foreign and security policy, and do not have great practical import — because of what is left out — i.e. entrenched U.S. political and economic interests; the deep foreign policy consensus overseen by the curator class of the deep security state; and the policies espoused by the mega donor collective. Nonetheless, this recently-released NSS reads rather differently by putting a distinctive “America First” gloss to U.S. foreign policy

Every Voting Tech Hack Washington Blamed On Venezuela Was Invented In Ohio

December 9, 2025 Gloria Guillo, Uncontrolled Opposition. , , , ,
Every voting tech hack that Washington claims was “invented in Venezuela” was discovered, demonstrated, and documented in the United States years — sometimes decades —before Smartmatic even existed. Full Stop. With President Trump’s false narco-trafficking claim boomeranging back and re-exposing the U.S. governments longstanding involvement through its military and CIA in cocaine and heroin trade, its state department is running out of excuses that justify stealing Venezuela’s crude oil to prevent higher prices that could result in the dreaded 1973 event of “dropping trucks off the road.”

Thousands Mobilize Against Trump’s War Threats To Venezuela

December 8, 2025 TeleSur, Orinoco Tribune. , , ,
Thousands of people in the United States demonstrated on December 6 under the slogan “Stop the war before it starts!” to protest against President Donald Trump’s plans for military aggression against Venezuela. The mobilization, organized by a broad coalition of progressive organizations, declared that the republican administration is repeating past mistakes by justifying a possible intervention with unfounded accusations about drug trafficking. Among the first groups backing the protests are the ANSWER Coalition, People’s Forum, Black Alliance for Peace, CODEPINK, Palestinian Youth Movement, Party for Socialism and Liberation, Democratic Socialists of America, and Dissenters.

Lies, False Flags And Extrajudicial Murders; Resisting US Attacks On Venezuela

December 7, 2025 Francisco Dominguez, Red Pepper. , , , ,
In deploying the largest naval armada seen in the Caribbean Sea for decades, the Trump administration has spent recent months ramping up long-standing US aggression against Venezuela. Predicated upon the falsehood that Venezuela is a narco-state run by the non-existent Cartel de los Soles, the fleet comprises at least thirteen warships, including three guided-missile destroyers, five support vessels, a nuclear submarine and the USS Gerald Ford.  The latter, the world’s largest aircraft carrier, is capable of carrying over 75 military aircraft and a range of military assets. Overall, the US has deployed at least 16,000 military personnel to the flotilla. The Pentagon is also docking warships and moving in war materiel through Puerto Rico and Trinidad and Tobago, and very likely through Guyana and other Caribbean islands. 

Ukraine – Roadblocks To A Peace Agreement

December 7, 2025 Moon of Alabama. , , , , ,
The new U.S. National Security Strategy says with regard to Ukraine: It is a core interest of the United States to negotiate an expeditious cessation of hostilities in Ukraine, in order to stabilize European economies, prevent unintended escalation or expansion of the war, and reestablish strategic stability with Russia, as well as to enable the post-hostilities reconstruction of Ukraine to enable its survival as a viable state. The U.S. is pressing forward with that mission. With the help of the Ukrainian anti-corruption vertical (the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU), the Specialized Anti-corruption Prosecutor Office (SAPO) and the High Anti-Corruption Court (HACC) – all created by the U.S. after the 2014 Maidan coup) it has removed Andreij Yermak from his position as the head of the president’s office. The next step is to press the acting President Vladimir Zelensky to agree to a peace agreement with Moscow. This will require him to give up land that the Ukrainian army is still holding.

Selling Out Australian Sovereignty

December 6, 2025 Peter Cronau, Consortium News. , , , , ,
Exclusive reports by Declassified Australia of at least 71 packages of F-35 fighter jet weapons parts being exported from Sydney to Israel have revealed that Australia has forfeited control over the plane’s spare parts stored here for Australia’s fleet of F-35s. Australia has signed up to a system where, at a moment’s notice, those “parts and components” may be whisked off the shelves at the RAAF Williamtown Air Base in New South Wales on the whim of a foreign state to be exported to a foreign country in a distant war zone. “What you’re probably talking about is items that Lockheed Martin imported into Australia to support the maintenance and sustainment of our fleet and then needed to move around to someone else. They are entitled to do that under the F-35 global supply chain mechanism.”

Urgent Actions: On December 6, March Against A US War On Venezuela

December 5, 2025 The Peoples Forum, Popular Resistance. , , , ,
22 years after the US went to war in Iraq based on lies, the Trump administration is preparing a major war against Venezuela. We must act now to stop this war before it starts. Today, Trump promised land strikes would begin “very soon,” has called for its airspace to be “closed,” and terminated negotiations with Venezuela’s government. These are all the signs of a full-scale regime change operation, which would be a catastrophe for the region.  The Trump Administration's repeated strikes in the Caribbean have shocked the world as brazen violations of international law.

Sudan’s War, UAE Gold, And The Rise Of Anti-Imperialist Alliances

December 5, 2025 Mnar Adley, MintPress News. , , , , , , , ,
Even as the U.S. empire’s gaze is turned towards Venezuela, it continues to meddle in Africa. Foreign intervention is fueling a bitter civil war in Sudan, the Trump administration is pushing a line about a genocide against Christians in Nigeria, with an eye on military intervention, and across the Sahel region, anti-imperialist forces continue to rise and organize, dreaming of a united, pan-African continent that will resist American imperialism and reject Israeli colonization. Joining MintCast host Mnar Adley today to talk about the continent is Ahmed Kaballo. Ahmed is a British-Sudanese journalist and the CEO and co-founder of African Stream, a media outlet shut down by the U.S. government for publishing inconvenient truths.

US State Department Travel Warning On Venezuela

December 5, 2025 Roger D. Harris, Antiwar.com. , , , , ,
Following his earlier threat that Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro’s days are numbered, US President Donald Trump announced on social media he was closing Venezuelan airspace. He then immodestly proclaimed the “Trump Corollary” to the Monroe Doctrine, commending his nineteenth century predecessor for presciently envisioning “a superpower unlike anything the world had ever known.” On December 3, the US State Department followed suit by issuing an updated Venezuela Travel Advisory. The document is a masterpiece of geopolitical creative writing, where the main export of Venezuela is not oil but existential dread.

US Lawmakers File Resolution To Block Trump’s War In Venezuela

December 4, 2025 News Desk, The Cradle. , , ,
US lawmakers filed a resolution on 3 December that would block a US military attack on Venezuela unless it can win congressional approval. The move, initiated by a group of Democratic and Republican Senators, came in response to repeated statements by US President Donald Trump in recent days claiming that a land invasion of the Latin American nation to combat drug traffickers would begin “very soon.” The president claims, without evidence, that Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro heads a criminal cartel trafficking drugs by boat to the US.

Why Can’t We Commit War Crimes And Destroy The Planet…

December 3, 2025 Lee Camp, Substack. , , ,
Sometimes it doesn’t seem like two things are connected. But deep down you know they are. You try to grasp the correlation, but it’s elusive. …I think I’ve found the answer. Why can’t we, the United States, regularly blow up fishermen off the coast of Venezuela — without a judge, jury, or relevant jurisdiction — without 49% of American children languishing in or near poverty?? Why can’t we send tens of billions of dollars to help Israel commit genocide while also having affordable housing for Americans? Rather than the monthly mortgage payment on a typical home doubling since January 2020?

Kremlin Slams NATO Call For Pre-Emptive Attack On Russia

December 2, 2025 News Desk, The Cradle. , , ,
Moscow condemned on 1 December comments made by NATO's most senior military officer, threatening that Brussels might conduct a possible “pre-emptive strike” against Russia. Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova called the remarks “an extremely irresponsible step, indicating the alliance's readiness to continue moving towards escalation.” “We see in it a deliberate attempt to undermine efforts to overcome the Ukrainian crisis,” Zakharova said. “The people making such statements should be aware of the risks and possible consequences, including for the alliance members themselves.”

Two Peace Prizes: Nobel Legitimizes War While US Peace Prize Honors Resistance

November 30, 2025 Roger D. Harris, Popular Resistance. , , ,
The Nobel Peace Prize was established in 1901. In the decades that followed, Mahatma Gandhi emerged as the international symbol of world peace for resistance to the dominant imperialism of his time – the British Empire. He was never recognized by the Nobel Committee. The Nobel Committee has honored figures ranging from the admirable Martin Luther King Jr. to the war criminal Henry Kissinger. Barack Obama received the prize after less than nine months in office, a “premature canonization” for not being George W. Bush. He then used his acceptance speech to justify US military invention.
