Two reviews of ‘Metabolic Rifts: Capitalism’s Assault on the Earth System’
Saturday, 12 September 2026 — Climate & Capitalism
Tempest and Counterpunch recommend Ian Angus’s new book
All authors love to see reviews of their books. Imagine how good I feel, getting two excellent reviews in one week!
Tempest: “An important contribution to understanding and guiding a socialist response to these compounding ecological crises. … Metabolic Rifts connects modern science, history, and Marxism’s metabolic rift theory.”
Counterpunch: “Ian Angus unpacks the ecology, history, polity and science of the worsening ecological crisis … In ways small and large, the book is a scientific primer for non-specialists.”
Many thanks to the reviewers, Paul Fleckenstein and Seth Sandronsky

Michael Hudson: De-Dollarization Is Necessary to Save The Global Economy | GEH W/ Radhika Desai
Friday, 11 September 2026 — Radhika Desai – Geopolitical Economist
Is the world quietly reviving a plan the United States buried eighty years ago? Professor Michael Hudson joins me to revisit Keynes’ original Bretton Woods proposals, built on balance, capital controls, and the principle that bad debts should be written off rather than enforced into depression. Washington rejected all of it and built the dollar system instead, one designed to keep the world dependent on American credit and American rules. Now Russia, China and Iran are building the alternatives Keynes once imagined, from Lavrov’s proposed SCO development bank to China’s CIPS system shielding Iranian oil trade from US sanctions, while even the Netherlands has asked Washington to send its gold home. The dollar system is unraveling. The question is what replaces it, and whether the world has the will to build something more balanced this time.

🔴 You vs Epstein-class
Thursday, 10 September 2026 — MintPress News
Dear friends,
I urgently need your support.
Over the years our journalists have been detained, interrogated, surveilled, canceled and lobbied against by national security agencies and special interest groups, including directly by the Israel lobby.
Our Wikipedia page has been written and managed by a mafia of pro-NATO editors and Israel lobby groups. This, in addition to aggressive algorithmic blacklisting by Google’s Project Owl and Big Tech Giants shadowbanning from the likes of Twitter, Facebook & TikTok’s, all of whom we’ve exposed to have a deep relationship with the military industrial complex to control your newsfeed and ensure a pro-war narrative is dominant.
Two days ago, we officially launched our annual fundraiser to come back stronger than ever to expose the architects of the forever war machine with a goal of $300,000 over the next 90 days —and this time, we have cut out the middleman entirely.
Join our campaign today to help MintPress rebuild it’s investigative reporting from the ground up to fight back against the Epstein Class, their forever wars and their financial censorship.
In solidarity,
Mnar Adley

Hakeem Jeffries, Monkeys, Errand Boys, and Black Misleadership
Margaret Kimberley, BAR Executive Editor and Senior Columnist
Hakeem Jeffries climbs the political ladder because he engages in dirty deeds with the world’s worst people. Being called a monkey gives him an easy out. The presence of a Black face in a high place is still rarely worth celebrating or defending.

PEPE ESCOBAR BREAKS:North Korea Just Delivered Carrier-Killer Drones To Iran
Tuesday, 8 September 2026 — Transition Protocol
Iran’s leadership has concluded that this war cannot be settled at a negotiating table. In this episode, recorded 8 September 2026, Pepe Escobar — reporting from Seoul — and Zulfiqar Ali lay out how every diplomatic off-ramp brokered by Pakistan collapsed, why Tehran has shifted from a defensive to an offensive posture, and what that means for the US naval blockade, the Strait of Hormuz and the wider Iran war.
Zulfiqar Ali reports, from sources inside Iran’s power structures, that North Korea has delivered a cache of stealth underwater attack drones to Iran through a corridor involving China and Pakistan — and that the decision to go on the offensive was cleared by Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei, President Pezeshkian, Speaker Ghalibaf and Foreign Minister Araghchi. This is source-based reporting and is not independently verified; it is presented and labelled as such throughout. Escobar assesses what the American counter-response could look like, why Russia and China are now backing Iran with more than diplomacy, and what a strategic defeat in West Asia and Ukraine at the same time would mean for American power.
Pepe Escobar is a veteran geopolitical correspondent and a founder of this channel, reporting this week from Seoul and travelling to Moscow. Zulfiqar Ali is a commentator with long-standing sources across Iran and Pakistan. Transition Protocol is an independent, source-driven geopolitics and economics channel — we tell you what is confirmed, what is developing, and what is a single source, every time.

The Innocents Pay While the Culprits Remain Unaccountable
Wednesday, 9 September 2026 — New Eastern Outlook
The natural disaster that struck Nepal last month is the outcome of the West’s high-handed climate exploitation policies.
On August 26, the collapse of a massive glacier and the bedrock of the surrounding area near Mount Langtang Lirung along the Nepal-Tibet border triggered a violent surge of water, ice, and debris, which rushed down the Lende Khola, Bhote Koshi, and Trishuli river corridors. Known as a Glacial Lake Outburst Flood, or GLOF, the disaster has so far resulted in the deaths of over 1,200 people and over 5,000 reportedly missing.

European Chemicals Agency dismisses Ramazzini findings of glyphosate carcinogenicity
In a September 8, 2026 meeting, the European Chemicals Agency’s (ECHA’s) Risk Assessment Committee (RAC) concluded that glyphosate does not warrant a classification for carcinogenicity, even after reviewing new data from the Ramazzini Institute. ECHA’s conclusion reiterates the findings of RAC’s 2022 hazard assessment for the controversial herbicide. [GMW: The Ramazzini study found that low doses of glyphosate and Roundup cause multiple types of cancer in rats. We look forward to reading ECHA’s creative excuses for dismissing these findings when its opinion is published.] Food Safety Magazine

Pakistan: GMO maize plan termed dead end for agriculture
The GMO maize plan announced last week has sparked significant backlash, with agricultural stakeholders expressing concerns over what they call erosion of agricultural sovereignty, potential export failures, and bio-security threats. The national agriculture sector is heading for a major confrontation as in a rare show of unity, farmers, scientists, exporters, seed industry leaders and academia issued a blistering warning against the government’s proposed approval of GM corn cultivation. They are calling it a “suicide attack” on food security, human health and a multi-billion dollar export industry. Rice Exporters Association of Pakistan (REAP) and Basmati Growers Association warn that GMO corn, a highly cross-pollinating crop, will hurt $1 billion Basmati
exports and cause loss of EU and other international markets. The News Pakistan
