Biden's Red Line Is Covered in Blood | Common Dreams

While the Biden administration may say that the attack in Rafah doesn’t cross the president’s red line, it has rightly sparked outrage around the world.

>... there are five #NATO nations that host nuclear weapons, that are under the control of the #UnitedStates. That’s in complete violation of the Non-Proliferation Treaty. None of the #nonproliferation and #abolition treaties across #Europe are working right now. There needs to be new arms control treaties. And right now the trajectory is in the opposite direction.

Phyllis Bennis: The Best Way to Help Ukraine Is Diplomacy, Not War & Increased Militarization

President Biden announced $800 million in new military aid for Ukraine on Wednesday, just days after Congress cleared a $1.5 trillion spending bill that included nearly $14 billion for Ukrainian humanitarian aid and security assistance. Experts warn that sending more lethal weapons could escalate war and result in more losses for Ukraine. “The cost on civilian lives is horrific,” says Phyllis Bennis, a fellow at the Institute for Policy Studies, who says increasing military aid in Ukraine could thwart peace talks between Russia and Ukraine — which appeared to be making progress in the past few days. Her latest piece is headlined “The Best Way to Help Ukraine Is Diplomacy, Not War.”
