Gangster State Capitalism

Paul Craig Roberts

Hanne Herland of the European Herland Report has just had her book published in which she argues that the ruling elite has resurrected feudalism by financializing the economy and offshoring middle class jobs.  The title is New Left Tyranny, but it is about gangster state capitalism.

Israel has a long, ugly record of human rights violations, the likes of which have been chronicled in detail by numerous human rights organizations.

Below is a description of pro-Israel bills that have been introduced in Congress in 2020 (grouped by subject), followed by a listing of bills that support justice for Palestinians (as of this writing, there is only one).
