Dear All, Even to this day, humanity has not advanced beyond petty and primitive national conflicts; succumbing to despotic leaders who use xenophobia, nationalism, propaganda and power politics to manipulate and indoctrinate the people of their respective countries. This not only applies to countries such as Russia and Iran; but also to the UK, EU and US - who deprive honest and decent folks of basic necessities, such as a Basic Income Guarantee (BIG), if they do not fall in line with the economic and political establishment. However, my colleagues in the International Community are certainly right about one thing: That the war between Russia and Ukraine must end - to stop further loss of innocent life, and restore Basic Human Rights in the International Community. Putin's illegal war on Ukraine has resulted in tens of thousands of deaths on both sides - which is unacceptable and must end. The UN General Assembly passed a justified resolution condemning the invasion and demanding a full withdrawal of Russian forces. Pope Francis has also denounced the wake of death and destruction caused by Putin's illegal war on Ukraine, describing the war as a crime against God and humanity. He said attacks on civilian infrastructure were causing deaths not only from gunfire and acts of violence but also from hunger and freezing cold. "Every act of war directed to the indiscriminate destruction of whole cities or vast areas with their inhabitants is a crime against God and humanity which merits firm and unequivocal condemnation." Furthermore, the International Criminal Court has issued an ICC arrest warrant against Vladimir Putin; which the Kremlin should comply with, by arresting Mr Putin. It should also be noted that the borders of both Ukraine and Russia have been internationally recognized and defined in 1991 - with Russia's President Boris Yeltsin recognizing Ukraine's independence. Hence Russia should honour this agreement. We encourage all Russian troops to return home to their loved ones in Russia - so that Peace can be manifested, and we can all live happy and fulfilling lives. Love and Light / благослови господь россию / God Bless President of Российская Федерация, the UK, the US, China and European Union Президент Российской Федерации / POTUS / The Crown / EU-China Mark, BTB-Global Peacebuilding PS: The News Reporter Evan Gershkovich has been arrested by the FSB on false and bogus charges of espionage. Hence he should be released immediately.

"The November 2009 massacre of 58 people in Maguindanao on the southern Philippines island of Mindanao was an atrocity waiting to happen. For more than 20 years, the ruling family charged with the massacre, the Ampatuans, and its 'private army' were responsible for a string of killings and other abuses in the province. The Ampatuans rose to power and enforced their rule with the help--both tacit and overt--of local officials, police, military, and eventually, the administration of then-President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. Even after a flurry of activity and arrests following the Maguindanao massacre, over half of the suspects are still at large and the family remains powerful. They Own the People focuses on the Ampatuans and their militia. The report details their many abuses, including more than 50 alleged incidences of killings, torture, sexual assault, abductions, and enforced disappearances over two decades. It charts the Ampatuans' rise and expansion, aided by President Arroyo, who relied on the family for crucial votes and support in the protracted armed conflict with Moro armed groups in Mindanao. Based on in-depth investigations in Mindanao, the report draws heavily on 'insider' testimony provided by former members of the Ampatuans' 2000- to 5000-strong private army. Although perhaps one of the most powerful and abusive forces in the Philippines, it is hardly unique: more than 100 private armies are estimated to operate throughout the country. The level of direct government support for these militias varies, but if the Ampatuan example is any indication, a history of abuses is no disqualifier. The report urges President Benigno Aquino III to ban all paramilitary and militia forces in the Philippines because of their long and continuing history of serious human rights violations. It also calls on the National Bureau of Investigation to prioritize investigating alleged extrajudicial killings and other serious crimes that may involve government officials, security forces, and militias. As long as such official support continues, so will private armies and the atrocities for which they have been responsible."--Page 4 of cover.

In The Sovereign Trickster Vicente L. Rafael offers a prismatic view of the age of Rodrigo Duterte in the contemporary Philippines. Framing Duterte as a trickster figure who boasts, jokes, terrorizes, plays the victim, and instills terror, Rafael weaves together topics ranging from the drug war, policing, and extrajudicial killings to neoliberal citizenship, intimacy, and photojournalism. He is less concerned with defining Duterte as a fascist, populist, warlord, and traditional politician than he is with examining what Duterte does: how he rules, the rhetoric of his humor, his use of obscenity to stoke fear, and his projection of masculinity and misogyny. Locating Duterte's rise within the context of counterinsurgency, neoliberalism, and the history of electoral violence, while drawing on Foucault’s biopower and Mbembe’s necropolitics, Rafael outlines how Duterte weaponizes death to control life. By diagnosing the symptoms of the authoritarian imaginary as it circulates in the Philippines, Rafael provides a complex account of Duterte’s regime and the social conditions that allow him to enjoy continued support.

This book draws on the extensive literature on populism, democracy, and emerging markets as well as interviews with senior government officials, experts, and journalists in the Philippines and beyond, This book is the first to analyze the significance and implications of the rise of Filipino president Rodrigo Duterte within a rapidly-changing Asia Pacific region. As China's power in the Pacific grows rapidly, nations that have traditionally been US allies, such as the Phillipines, are experiencing political convulsions; Duterte's open willingness to realign towards China (at the expense of America) in exchange for infrastructure investment is one of the clearest indicators of what China's rise might look like for nations around the world. Timely, precise, accessible and fast-paced, this book will be of value to scholars, journalists, policy-makers, and China watchers.
