In homeschool cooperatives, students learn side by side from one another’s parents — an embodiment of the saying “It takes a village to raise a child.” At For the Culture, parent-teachers introduced Cari and her classmates to the genocide in Gaza and other current events during their weekly sessions, then supported those who wanted to turn the knowledge into action.
To conquer a place is to fundamentally subdue its population. This must be clearly differentiated from ‘occupation’, a specific legal term that governs the relationship between a foreign “occupying power” and the occupied nation under international law, particularly the Fourth Geneva Convention. When Israeli forces were ultimately compelled to redeploy from the Gaza Strip in 2005, a direct consequence of the persistent resistance of the Palestinian population there, the United Nations resolutely insisted that the Gaza Strip remained an occupied territory under international law. This position stood in stark contradiction to that of Israel, which conveniently produced its own legal texts that designated Gaza a ‘hostile entity‘ – thus, not an occupied territory.
Argues that the left needs to develop a plan, and implement it, on flooding Congress people’s offices across the country during this summer’s recess–both Democrats and Republicans–to demand an opening of the Epstein files, an end of aid to Israel, and an end to Liquid Natural Gas (LNG) exports and keeping fossil fuels in the ground, and to show Congress how repulsed we are with Donald Trump’s shenanigans, including his incompetent set of Cabinet “leaders.”
Historic elections reveal deep public dissatisfaction with austerity, scandals, and a fading populist agenda. Local and regional elections on April 13 have delivered an historic defeat to Finland’s ruling right-wing populist party The Finns (Perussuomalaiset), which saw its support almost halved compared to the last local elections. The left-green bloc made significant gains across the country, and in the welfare-responsible regional councils in particular a record number of women will play a decisive role in shaping and implementing social and health care policy.
Espionage in ancient India was not a peripheral concern—it was an intrinsic part of governance, war strategy, and moral-political philosophy. From the mythical tales of Hanuman in the Ramayana to the intricate doctrines of Kautilya in the Arthashastra, the Indian subcontinent cultivated a rich tradition of state intelligence that was both pragmatic and deeply embedded in dharmic thought. This article traces the evolution of Indian espionage from divine narratives to realpolitik, revealing its complex role in shaping statecraft across centuries.
