Venezuelan Anti-Social Justice Catholic Bishops by Stephen Lendman (stephenlendman.org – Home – Stephen Lendman) They’re a deplorable bunch, at least the leadership and other vocal ones, supporting fascist rule over Bolivarian social justice.  They were hostile to Hugo Chavez throughout his tenure, now denigrating President Maduro and Venezuela’s electoral process, the world’s best. Chavez often […]

Daily Israeli Atrocities Against Palestinians by Stephen Lendman (stephenlendman.org – Home – Stephen Lendman) Ruthless daily Israeli oppression reflects life in Occupied Palestine.

In 1982, his Carter […]

Examples of Deplorable NYT Commentaries by Stephen Lendman (stephenlendman.org – Home – Stephen Lendman) Even when the self-styled newspaper of record discusses an important issue like “America’s forever wars,” it suppresses what’s most important to explain.
