It's 2025 and Imperialism will now turn localize in the American continent and turn in on its own citizens, boomerang style. Today we are gonna be talking about oligarchy, Corporate liberal media enabling far-right politics, and the potential resurrection of the global war on terror in this new American Dark age. Gonna be fun!

Welcome to Colonial Outcasts for an impromptu Ceasefire episode. We may repost segments of this to MintPress News but for right now we are going to dive right in because there is a lot to talk about. What is this ceasefire? Is it viable? Why is it happening now? I know a lot of people are confused right now, and we also need to talk about how this ties into the Lebanese presidential elections, and the US Iran policy under the Trump administration, to that end we are joined by Batool Subeiti, energy engineer and political analyst based out of London UK.

Check us out on Patreon for exclusive content: https://www.patreon.com/c/ColonialOutcasts Hello and welcome to Colonial Outcasts the bi-weekly podcast where we demonstrate that the next fifty years are fixing to be really stupid… eh hopefully its only 20, but regardless it is Monday January 13th and we are only two weeks into 2025 - we’ve got disturbed veteran attacks in New Orleans and Las Vegas, unprecedented wildfires in LA, it’s Snowing in Texas, Trump is about to Start a trade war with Canada, Greenland and the Panama Canal are now on the Imperialist annexation Hitlist, Elon Musk is using his social media platform X to rewrite history to assert old Adolf and the National Socialist party were not fascists, but in fact Communists which is ridiculous - but you know, if a billionaire techno feudal anarch-capitalist oligarch says its true, it must be. 

Cops, war, the climate crisis, capitalism...

Basically here’s the scoop: The general public still hasn’t grasped the climate crisis that is now upon us and we are nearing the brink of complete societal collapse is certain areas of the country, perhaps even the whole country within the next years - hopefully its at least ten because I am still trying to enjoy my thirties and have enough time for a midlife crisis in my early 40’s but it’s coming…

Hello and welcome to a new year with Colonial Outcasts. It is 2025 and as I’ve been saying, if you loved 2024 you’re absolutely going to love 2025, and boy are we starting out with a bang. Literally. George Orwell’s 1984 warned of a future where big brother watches every move. Today, modern technology is making that vision a reality, and Oracle founder Larry Ellison - the world’s second richest person - sees a growing opportunity for his company to help authorities analyze realtime data from millions of surveillance cameras...

Hello and welcome to or welcome back to Colonial Outcasts, the anti-imperialist podcast where we generally discuss the dirty work our governments are doing overseas. However, today we are bringing it back to the homefront, Imperial Boomerang style, to talk about this stupid drone media frenzy and how the real threat isn’t an Independence Day-esque Alien invasion, but our own government.

I guess the intense emotions swirling around are a mixture of elation that Assad is deposed and despondency that the Axis of Resistance and the state of the Palestinian cause look to be in a pretty bleak state right now. Things looked like they were going well in terms of the Israeli state destroying itself and the US losing massive influence in the Region, and then within a week all this pressure that was building got released and the entire situation has taken a 180.

Literally the Empire Strikes back, which you know happens before the fall. Let's talk about the new Geopolitical reality.

Repost from my  @MintPressNews  episode. Last time I will b e dual posting, so follow us there if interested! Following its new attacks on Syria, Israel’s leaders and much of its media tout the creation of a new Middle East. Is this possible? Israel and the collective West have had little success in controlling the region. Join us Tonight on State of Play to discuss the volatile dynamics of Syria and the infeasibility of a messianic “Greater Israel.”

We platform different voices and perspectives on this Podcast. This is a repost from the MintPress Show "State of Play." Hope you enjoy. It will be controversial...

No one predicted the rapid pace of events in the most recent iteration of the Syrian Civil war, beginning with the rapid advance of HTS and other forces from Idlib province into the to city of Aleppo, the unanticipated stand down orders given to the Syrian Army, and the rapid collapse and flight of Assad’s government. Rumors of backroom deals, internal corruption, and Western interference abound, so we may not have a clear picture for some time. What remains then is the potential fates of Syria and the Axis of Resistance.

The situation is balanced on a knife’s edge, and to help us unravel the complexities of this multi-faction, multi-ethnic socio-political development we are joined by Afeef Nessouli, journalist with years of experience, both in the UN and the Carter Institute, reporting on Syria

Repost from  @MintPressNews  subscribe for more content like this. Hey! After many requests I have decided to focus on a primer for this incredibly complex, painful, and divisive conflict from a great-power politics perspective. I will soon be platforming Syrian analysts to give a more balanced perspective to this intractable conflict that is now taking center stage in the Geopolitical forum and is indelibly connected to the US and Israel.

Many out there are confused by the sudden Ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah in Southern Lebanon, given that one of Hezbollah’s initial early operational imperatives was to not relent its military pressure on Israel until a ceasefire was reached in Gaza.

That prospect, one of a ceasefire, seems more unlikely now, though some hold out hope that this ceasefire in Lebanon will snowball into others throughout the region. With the IDF on the brink, low on munitions and manpower, why relent now?
