How the U.S. Military Is Destroying the Planet
Empire Files Journalist Abby Martin joins the show to discuss her new film, Earth’s Greatest Enemy, which exposes how the U.S. military — “the army of fossil fuel companies” — drives global climate destruction.
The documentary links imperialism, war, and environmental collapse, showing how crises from Iraq to Gaza and Sudan are interconnected by U.S. global power. Martin warns, “The status quo is death… they are barreling us off a cliff and destroying the habitability of our future.”
The U.S. military is the single largest polluter on the planet — and the “status quo is death,” says @AbbyMartin . “They are barreling us off a cliff and destroying the habitability of our future.”

” “the army of fossil fuel companies” — drives global climate destruction.”
THAT’S JUST BULLSHIT. CO2 IS A VITAL ELEMENT FOR PLANTS AND MICRO ORGANISMS. IN TIMES OF HIGH CO2 CONCENTRATIONS, THE PLANET THRIVES AND THE PLANT KINGDOM TOO.
Instead of wasting ,our times with fake news like these, why don’t you expose the evil US military empire for the crimes it commits against people the world over, starting by Palestine, Lebanon, Iraq, Yemen, Iran, Venzuela etc…

Barrack also threatens ‘harsh’ Israeli strike on Iraq if any Shi’ites interfere
The reason to suspect this is more than just another minor escalation from Israel is that there were no reports of the US going around warning regional countries at all amid previous operations. Indeed, Israel tends to carry out attacks on Lebanon almost daily, though for the past couple of days, they have held back, likely because of the optics of attacking during a papal visit.

Richard Sharp is a former chairperson of the BBC. When he was appointed in 2021, the BBC reported that “Sharp’s heritage is Jewish and he is considered by those who know him broadly pro-Israel. He has a twin sister, Victoria, who is a senior judge.”

Campaigners are alleging a “stitch-up” after the British judge who was to consider the legal challenge to the ban on Palestine Action was replaced at the last minute.
The Electronic Intifada has learned that a judge with ties to the pro-Israel lobby will lead the new panel on the case. A three-day hearing began on Wednesday and is due to conclude on Tuesday.
Before the change, High Court Justice Martin Chamberlain, an expert on free speech law, had been set to rule on whether or not to overturn the government’s ban on Palestine Action as a “terrorist” group.
But on Wednesday last week, he was abruptly replaced by a panel of three – Victoria Sharp, Karen Steyn and Jonathan Swift. For a judge to be replaced so close to the hearing date is unusual.
High Court Judge Victoria Sharp’s twin brother Richard Sharp sits on the board of trustees of charity One Million Mentors alongside Trevor Chinn, a key British funder of pro-Israel groups.
