Sinopse

If you’ve ever wondered why people keep talking about Palestine, or the point of keeping up with a long-drawn conflict in the Middle East and what difference you could possibly make, this book is for you. Political analyst and podcaster Walid Jumblatt Abdullah takes on questions that Singaporeans have often raised about Palestine, laying out answers that clarify and inform. 
 
Walid examines myths (“Could Gaza Have Been Singapore?”) and sheds light on the double standards of Western powers, to whom human rights seem to matter, except for where Palestine is concerned. Explaining how the Palestinians have been systematically dehumanised for decades, the book highlights how they continue to exist nevertheless, their very existence an act of resistance. 
 
Why Palestine? is an illuminating starting point for newcomers to the issue, and a passionate primer that seasoned activists will welcome for capturing the heart and hope of a long-disenfranchised people and those who support them.

    Something basic is missing in our culture. Americans know it. Nothing much works as it should. Simple daily choices seem impossible, or fraught with peril. In the workplace, we walk on eggshells. Big projects get stalled in years of review. Endemic social problems such as homelessness become, well, more endemic. 
     
     
     
    Everyday Freedom offers a radical reinterpretation of the corrosion of American culture. The assault on authority after the 1960s, aimed at enhancing freedom, instead created a plague of powerlessness. The teacher in the classroom, the principal in a school, the nurse in the hospital, the official in Washington, the parent on a field trip . . . all have their hands tied. Things don't work, and Americans have lost the freedom to be themselves. 
     
     
     
    Everyday Freedom offers a radical vision for change: Re-empower Americans in their everyday choices. The massive legal structures erected since the 1960s were based on flawed notions that human judgment could be replaced by elaborate dictates. These failed structures must be replaced with simpler frameworks activated by human responsibility and accountability. Nothing will work sensibly until Americans are free to draw on their skills, intuitions, and values when confronting daily challenges. This is the only cure to alienation. This is also the only way to deliver good government.

    The first of two debates between President Ronald Reagan and former Vice President Walter F. Mondale was held in Louisville, Kentucky on October 7, 1984. Barbara Walters was the debate moderator. James Weigart, Diane Sawyer, and Fred Barnes were the three panelists who asked questions. 
    This first debate was on the economy and domestic issues. Questions focused on the following topics: the nation’s economy, leadership qualities, religion, political issues, abortion, federal taxation, social welfare programs, the presidential campaign, and closing statements. Reagan won a landslide victory in 1984 winning every state except Minnesota and the District of Columbia. 
    Note: 43 seconds of the audio (part of Barbara Walter’s introduction) was garbled. The section from 57 seconds to 1 minute 40 seconds was omitted. This omitted section can be seen and heard in the text and video versions at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library. Search online for “Ronald Reagan major speeches” to see both a text version and a video version of this debate.

    Every day, ICE arrests hundreds of illegal immigrants with criminal records—murderers, rapists, gang members who didn't just arrive, they were sent here. While Americans debate what happens after immigrants arrive, almost no one asks the critical question: Who is sending them, and why?
     
    The invisible coup is happening in plain sight. Over 10 million border encounters occurred between 2021 and 2024. Chinese nationals crossing illegally increased 7,300% in three years. Fentanyl killed 74,000 Americans in 2023. Your tax dollars fund NGOs facilitating the illegal immigration that federal law prohibits. This isn't incompetence—it's coordinated transfer of sovereignty so systematic that even victims can't name it.
     
    This explosive investigation reveals who profits from border chaos: Politicians accepting millions from industries dependent on cheap labor. Corporate CEOs suppressing American wages while lobbying for open borders. NGO executives building billion-dollar empires on government contracts. Mexican cartels earning $13 billion annually from human smuggling. Chinese intelligence positioning military-age males throughout America without vetting. Foreign governments weaponizing migration against U.S. interests.
     
    Discover how politicians rotate between government and lucrative advocacy roles, profiting from the sovereignty they sell. Learn which corporations fund immigration expansion while their workers face wage suppression. See tax documents proving NGOs receive billions in taxpayer funds while advocating against enforcement. Understand how census manipulation redistributes congressional power based on non-citizen populations. Read documented evidence of coordination between elites, NGOs, cartels, and foreign adversaries—each pursuing different goals but achieving the same result: America's borders erased.
