Fellowship of Reconciliation Condemns Palestine – Israel Conflict
Press Release
https://countercurrents.org/2023/10/fellowship-of-reconciliation-condemns-palestine-israel-conflict/
The Fellowship of Reconciliation (FOR) is horrified at the new war that has just broken out in Israel/Palestine. FOR, a pacifist organization since its conception in 1914 in Europe and 1915 in the United States, condemns the initiation of this latest
stage of violent conflict. In condemning Hamas’s attack launched on Shabbat and Simchat Torah, we are also led to condemn Israel for its decades of occupation, siege, and human rights violations and abuses that have led up to this moment.

While the Iranian nationalists, women rights activists, and secular political groups are mobilizing to oust the clerics from power, London and Washinton are trying to prevent the regime from falling, despite the fact that the time of mullahs’ regime is up and propping up their regime is useless.
Balkan Geopolitics: Between a Bridge and the Battlefield
by Dr VladislavB Sotirovic
The peculiar geostrategic position of the Balkan Peninsula gives us an answer to the
question of why it has been throughout history both a bridge and the battlefield of different civilizations and cultures. Thus, the history of the region was to a great extent determined by the location of the Balkans. Situated at the meeting point of Europe, Africa, and Asia both the Balkans experienced alternate imperial drives, competing ideologies together with conflicting social, political, and economic systems
AI, the future of work, and beyond
by Omar Raad Chowdhury and Md. Abdul Aahad
Policymakers need to be proactive in instituting legal mechanisms that will monitor and regulate the innovation and adoption of AI. All relevant stakeholders, especially those upholding the interests of the labour, need to cooperate to ensure the accountability of companies developing AI. At the top of their agenda should be the social ownership of AI — a model that will put the well-being of the community above
profiteering and private gains.
Post-G20 Summit Euphoria: Will India Emerge an Axis for Afro-Asian Nations?
by Dr. Nafees Ahmad
Leaders have been seeking to establish the link between the Global South and the Global North within the framework of the current changes.

A village struggling for sheer survival that needs help
by Bharat Dogra
Baurapurva village, located in Naraini block of Banda district, is inhabited by the people of Kevat community known for their close association with rivers and inland water sources.
This village was earlier located very close to the Ken river but it was devastated in the floods of 1978 caused by sudden and excess release of dam water. Then it was relocated at the present site. This site is caught between the two states of Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh. This as well as the absence of a proper path have led to the denial of several development benefits which this neglected village certainly needs.
