I am also a fan. It´s a very great book. Writing recently about geopolitics and climate change I remarked that `what Jonathan Schell called ¨the unconquerable world¨ has yet to speak.´ But things are moving now ...
But the biggest and most influential source of my thinking on this is Jonathan Schell's under recognized masterpiece: Unconquerable World: Power, Nonviolence, and the Will of the People.

Not only are populations ageing, but soon they will be falling and the problem will get worse. To have a whole bunch of journalists write about pensions without mentioning the one obvious, viable, effective in the short-term, solution is kind of irresponsible. Its immigration.

So the argument being made by the US is that if the reparations loan is approved by PMs & presidents at tomorrow's 🇪🇺 #EUCO summit it kills the ongoing 'peace deal' negotiations.
But, as many have pointed out, those negotiations are illusory. How do you kill something that isn't alive to start with?

I don´t see why people are getting so hot under the collar about this. Innovation economists have been arguing for years that governments should have some stake in firms that grow rich on the basis of publicly-developed technologies.

Trump pardoned Jared Wise, a January 6th rioter who repeatedly urged the mob to “kill” police officers there. He called the cops Nazis and “the Gestapo”
The same Jared Wise currently serves as a senior adviser in Pam Bondi’s Department of Justice.
