  • In Search of Monsters to Destroy: The Manufacturing of a Cold War by Cynthia Chung
    2024/10/02

    This Substack article argues that American Cold War nuclear strategy was not a rational response to Soviet aggression, but rather a self-fulfilling prophecy based on faulty assumptions and a distorted understanding of history. The author, Cynthia Chung, critiques the “systems analysis” approach of the RAND Corporation, a research group established after World War Two. She argues that RAND's reliance on mathematical models and “rational choice theory” led to a dangerous escalation of Cold War tensions, culminating in a near-nuclear war. The author further argues that RAND's embrace of this flawed approach was driven by a deep-seated American paranoia, fueled by the traumatic experience of Pearl Harbour, and a desire to maintain American global dominance. Ultimately, the article posits that the United States' obsession with "winning" at all costs, rather than engaging in genuine diplomacy, created a Cold War that threatened the world with nuclear annihilation.

  • Ireland 1845-1850 The Perfect Holocaust
    2024/10/01
    The text presents a forceful argument that the Irish famine of 1845-1850 was not a natural disaster, but a deliberate and systematic genocide perpetrated by the British government. The author, Chris Fogarty, argues that the British government's policies, including the enforced removal of food from Ireland, led to mass starvation and death, with a significantly higher death toll than previously acknowledged. The text meticulously compiles historical evidence and sources, including primary sources, to support this assertion, disputing common narratives and highlighting the role of British landlords and officials in the famine. It seeks to expose the "perfect holocaust" as a crime deliberately hidden by the British government and subsequently by Irish institutions.
