A dystopian vision for Gaza & Canada says the quiet part loud

from Always at War

Courtney and Alex are breaking down the latest news that explain why the U.S. remains perpetually at war — this week, courtesy of our benevolent overlords in Davos at the World Economic Forum.First, they congratulate Larry Ellison on Oracle's acquisition of TikTok and swift shadow-banning of Courtney’s account.Next, they discuss Trump's "Board of Peace" and plan to build a "New Gaza" over the ashes of a genocide — and the chilling details of what this "peace" vision could entail, from forced displacement or indentured servitude to biometric surveillance and re-education.Finally, they break down why Canada's Prime Minister decided to acknowledge the truth about the so-called "rules-based order" and whether Washington will ever let go of its favorite myths about American foreign policy. ###Why is America seemingly always at war? Join the Quincy Institute’s Courtney Rawlings and Alex Jordan as they expose the monied interests, outdated ideologies, and entrenched powers that have driven the U.S. to wage nearly 400 wars and interventions. They’ll be joined by journalists, advocates, and experts to uncover who profits from America’s endless conflicts, and to imagine how we can build a better, more peaceful U.S. foreign policy.Learn more about the Quincy Institute: quincyinst.orgContact the show: [email protected] art by Justin Hantz###Quincy Institute is an independent, nonprofit think tank. Help fund our research: https://quincyinst.org/donations/Read our reporting: https://ResponsibleStatecraft.org   Twitter: https://x.com/QuincyInstTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/quincyinst   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/quincyinst  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com//quincyinst  Website: https://quincyinst.org
