The military is joined disproportionately by a 'warrior caste’ whom carry this enormous burden, making a less diverse force and ensuring most of society doesn't see their sacrifice. And American tax dollars, funding hundreds of billions in unnecessary spending on global hegemony, are robbed from the domestic needs of ordinary Americans. We aim to change that. Join Henri, Keagan, Jovanni, Shiloh, and Monisha, six leftist US military veterans, as they discuss how to turn the tide against endless war and repair the damage America has caused abroad.https://www.fortressonahill.comfalseepisodichttps://feeds.captivate.fm/fortressonahill/nopodcastPortland, ORMadea Benjamin on the US–Israel War on Iran, AIPAC, and Building an Anti-War Movement - Ep 179Madea Benjamin on the US–Israel War on Iran, AIPAC, and Building an Anti-War Movement - Ep 179Jovanni is joined by Medea Benjamin, co-founder of Code Pink and other advocacy coalitions, to discuss the third week of what he calls the US–Israel war of aggression against Iran, sparked after the killing of Ayatollah Khomeini and the collapse of reportedly positive US–Iran negotiations, with the conflict expanding beyond what the Trump administration claimed would be a four-day incursion. Guest , argues the US entered a quagmire with no strategy or exit plan, notes reports of a 2,500-Marine deployment tied to the mined Strait of Hormuz, and warns against a ground invasion. They discuss why protests are smaller than pre-Iraq war mobilizations, the roles of AIPAC and biblical pro-Israel politics in Congress, differing US versus Israeli goals (including regime change and regional chaos), Gulf monarchies’ alignment with the US, and the need to translate anti-war polling into public action and congressional pressure.

They touch on reported attacks on civilian infrastructure, fears of a Gaza-style campaign, and uncertainty amid “fog of war,” while noting signs the war is lasting longer than promised, Israel’s defenses and munitions being strained, the Strait of Hormuz closure, and US scrambling for new strategies. Topics discussed include critiques propaganda and Islamophobia, “pink-washing,” diaspora-driven regime-change narratives, and balkanization aims, linking the conflict to oil/energy control and broader US strategy against China, alongside diminished protest compared to Iraq, possible nuclear escalation, supply-chain and cost-of-living impacts, and the need for organizing beyond protests.

The resolution, which involves the establishment of an international transitional authority called the Board of Peace chaired by Donald Trump, aims to demilitarize Gaza and shifts humanitarian coordination away from the United Nations. They delve into the resolution's implications for Gaza's future, drawing parallels to historical colonial patterns and external control over the region. They also explore the broader geopolitical context, including the attitudes of major global players like Russia and China, and the potential erosion of international law and institutions like the United Nations.

Ross Caputi and Scott Spaulding join us to discuss The Sacking of Fallujah, both the event and the book which Ross co-wrote.; Fallujah is seen by the American empire as a great victory over the burgeoning Sunni insurgency during the early years of Operation Iraqi Freedom, but for the people of Fallujah and their descendants, it is nothing less than the entire destruction and poisoning of their people and land. Birth defects are rampant among the population, spurred by the use of heavy munitions like white phosphorus, depleted uranium, and thermobaric weapons, which have destroyed the environment for generations.

Ross' book, The Sacking of Fallujah: A People's History, is a great primer on the subject, as well as a detailed microcosm of the war in Iraq and its tactics. I consider it a must-buy.

Birth defects are rampant among the population, spurred by the use of heavy munitions like white phosphorus, depleted uranium, and thermobariacs, which have destroyed the environment for generations.

Ross' book, The Sacking of Fallujah: A People's History, is a great primer on the subject, as well as a detailed microcosm of the war in Iraq and its tactics. I consider it a must-buy.
