> .. the United States has consistently.. opposed to any international judicial body that would have jurisdiction over its own actions. And in fact, in 2002, George W.

@Aether @clacke @strypey @cirnog @deprecated_ii @skylar Maybe that's why an #AfricaCommand #AfriCom is necessary , with States (governments) collapsing there's not enough stability for the shipping and trade that multi-national corporations depend on. Sorry for blabbing before reading the articles, but now I want to catch up on #JeremyScahill and #DirtyWars 'the day Obama was sworn in, a U.S. drone strike hit #Yemen .' https://tomdispatch.com/jeremy-scahill-the-fantasy-of-a-clean-war/

#GlennGreenwald #JeremyScahill: « We founded #TheIntercept five years ago because so few outlets were able and willing to report on the government secrets exposed by #EdwardSnowden with the fearlessness and tenacity they deserved. […] As #Snowden recently put it, “The outlet started in response to the 2013 mass #surveillance revelations has really become a global force.” […] As legal and security costs grow, we depend on reader #support. $207K still needed this year. »

FYI, the #HopeLabor concept: « This research introduces 'hope labor' as a motivation for voluntary online social production, defined here as ‘un- or under-compensated work carried out in the present, often for experience or exposure, in the hope that future #employment opportunities may follow’. »
