There’s long been a ruling class gentleman’s agreement about prosecuting US presidents and former presidents: you don’t do it since the “commander in chief” of the giant and mass murderous US Empire regularly commits grave crimes in the execution of his duties.
‘Shocking Corruption and Violation of Ethics in Regulatory Work Concerning GM Crops’; and: ‘Turning Healthy Food into Disease Causing Food—The Case of GM Corn’.
The global balance of power is shifting. The resistance to NATO’s push for a New Cold War is growing, particularly among the Third World countries that have historically borne the brunt of the West’s imperial projects.
Daniel Ellsberg, a former U.S. military analyst who revealed a years-long U.S. campaign to hide the true scale of U.S.’s the Vietnam War, and a life-long peace activist, has died Friday at this home in Kensington, California, U.S. He was 92.
Small Modular Reactors (SMR) are the new nuclear craze, especially with the U.S. Congress. They are being advertised as a green deal for clean energy that skirts the heavy costs of paying the Middle East billions upon billions. However, the devil in the details is dangerously overlooked.

The estimates of India’s GDP for Q4 2022-23 show a growth rate of 6.1% over Q4 2021-22; for 2022-23 as a whole, the GDP growth rate comes to 7.2%, a shade higher than expected. But this makes not an iota of difference to one’s assessment of the current state of India’s economy.
Despite Tamil Nadu’s history of anti-caste movements, continued reports on the denial of temple entry to Dalits indicate that the space has to come under greater legal and public scrutiny. The state must ensure that it follows the Constitution, not caste dictates.
Janata Weekly is India’s oldest independent socialist weekly.
Ever since its founding in 1946, Janata has voiced its principled dissent against all conduct and practice that is detrimental to the cherished values of nationalism, democracy, secularism and socialism, while upholding the integrity and the ethical norms of healthy journalism. For more than seventy years now, week after week, it has continued to analyse the changes taking place in the country and the world from a socialist standpoint, and thus promote the spread of socialist ideology in the country.
Address: D-15, Ganesh Prasad, Naushir Bharucha Marg, Mumbai- 400007.
