The West Papua National Liberation Army has resisted counterinsurgency in the Star Mountains for decades. #DropSiteNews spoke with guerilla leader Lamek Taplo a week before he was killed.

This dispatch from is from the mountains of #WestPapua, a part of the world we don’t typically cover.... In this story, the weaponry in question is made by a multinational French weapons manufacturer and Chinese manufacturer...: the Indonesian government using drones and helicopters to terrorize and displace the people of West Papua, while the historical reason imperial interests loom over the region stems from a U.S. mining project in the 1960s. The #videos in this story are well worth watching: exclusive interviews with the #guerilla group fighting off the drones and airplanes with bows and arrows.
November 11 statement by 59 States Parties to the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court #ICC joined a statement in support of the #independence, #impartiality #integrity of the #ICC, expressing deep concern about the sanctions, reject any threat and action undertaken to obstruct the Court in the exercise of its mandate.
Check to see if your country joined the statement — and if not, we can ask our MPs why not. See the list in the statement.
Today in Labor History November 27, 1898: Maria Vetulani was born. She was a soldier in Poland’s war for independence, the Polish-Ukrainian war, and in World War II, as well as a fierce opponent of fascism. In 1918, she fought in the defense of Lvov against the Ukrainian occupation. She had to disguise herself as a man, because women weren’t allowed in combat then. In the 1920s, she became a socialist and married the communist Bohdan de Nisau, who was later imprisoned, tortured and murdered under Stalin. She fled the USSR and moved to Warsaw, where she helped hide Jews from the Nazis. In 1944 she participated in the Warsaw Uprising, where she was wounded. The Nazis killed her in her hospital bed. Her son also participated in the uprising and survived.

"RACHEL Reeves’s Budget is not a new beginning; it is the final, brutal confirmation that the British state is bankrupt – not just of money, but of ideas and morality. Her so-called “fiscal responsibility” is a grotesque capitulation, a pledge to continue bleeding the working class dry to service the debts of a failed economic model. For Scotland, it is the ultimate proof that the Union is a gilded cage, and Westminster a gong pit of short-sighted avarice from which we must escape.
The grim reality Reeves dares not address is that Scotland should already be one of the wealthiest nations on earth. While Norway coolly manages a $2 trillion sovereign wealth fund built on its natural resources, Scotland has been systematically robbed. That vast, common wealth – the legacy of our North Sea oil and gas – was siphoned off to the London Exchequer for decades, frittered away on tax cuts for the rich and vanity projects in the south-east. The ultimate insult is that the very architects and apologists of this grand larceny, the incognizant dullards of Unionism, have the gall to call this settlement a “dividend.” They believe it is a good thing that our national inheritance was stolen to prop up a system that now offers us nothing but managed decline.
This Budget is the blueprint for that decline. It is not a plan for growth, but a declaration of war on the poor, dictated by the City of London and its enforcers at the Office for Budget Responsibility.
With nearly 10% of all UK Government spending – £125 billion – being siphoned directly to the financial elite as interest on debt, we are no longer citizens but serfs. We are forced to pay tribute to the very creditors who profit from our subjugation.
The OBR has explicitly demanded the dismemberment of the post-war social contract. Our NHS, our state pension, our welfare safety net – all are declared “unsustainable” and marked for sacrifice. This fiscal sadism is to be intensified to fund a 1930s-style surge in military spending.
This level of class war is so deeply unpopular it cannot be sustained democratically. The path Reeves is on leads directly to the soft fascism of parties like Reform, who will provide the populist cover for this economic violence.
Unionism, in the face of this evidence, is a cult of nostalgia, a faith-based dogma built on a slavish devotion to institutions that embody the very inequality crushing our people. It is a creed contemptuous of facts, offering only hollow hymns to a past that never was.
Independence is the only rational escape from this death spiral. It is the choice to reject the UK’s neoliberal orthodoxy and embrace a modern, compassionate economic framework. An independent Scotland would not manage austerity; it would abolish it.
By taking our rightful place as a normal European nation, we could:
• Reclaim Our Economic Sovereignty: Free from the OBR's austerity mandate, we could adopt fiscal rules aimed at full employment and social wellbeing. We would understand that public investment is the foundation of a thriving private sector, not a burden to be minimised.
• Build a 21st-Century Economy: The creation of a Scottish currency would grant us the ultimate tool to manage our economy for our people, not the bond markets. A publicly owned Scottish Energy company would become the cornerstone of a green industrial revolution, creating jobs and funding public services – a stark contrast to the privatised misery of the UK system.
• Implement Truly Progressive Taxation: With full powers, we could finally build a tax system that targets wealth, not work. This means a radical overhaul: smashing capital gains loopholes, imposing a proper wealth tax, and making corporations that profit from public misery, like the asylum housing profiteers, pay their fair share.
The choice has never been starker. The Union offers a future of poverty, debt, and servitude to a London-centric elite, a future where the memory of our stolen £2 trillion fund is a permanent monument to our subjugation.
Independence is the path to a prosperous, forward-looking country. It is the choice to use our vast resources and human capital for the good of our own people, to build a society based on solidarity and investment. The question is no longer one of left or right, but of sovereignty versus subjugation. Scotland must choose: will it remain a colony, plundered by Westminster, or will it finally step into the light as a self-determining, thriving nation?"

I am absolutely astonished with the Customer Service Chase Bank is presenting. Several weeks ago I received my new debit card in the mail since it is expiring at the end of the year. Just like all of us blind people I was slightly frustrated that I had to get a sighted person to get me the new CCV number and expiration date, so I could activate it. I do love that Capital One just has you tap it with the app. Now, if I just waited a few more weeks this is what astonished me. Today I received a letter in the mail in Braille and a sleeve of braille. One side has all of my card information in braille and the other side has the type of card that I have and the Customer Care number. This is so impressive to me because five years ago when I got my last debit card. This was not a thing. They have made giant leaps and bounds to give autonomy and independence to blind people. On the letter it gave me a phone number for Chase Accessibility services to call if I need a replacement sleeve of braille for my debit card. This was awesome! #BrailleDebitCard #Independence
