وبحسب الدكتور فاضل قابوب "يجب أن يكون هناك إجماع وتصويت للغالبية في أي عملية متعددة الأطراف. وهذا يعني أن الدول التي تتمتع بأكبر وزن اقتصادي وجيوسياسي، مثل الولايات المتحدة والاتحاد الأوروبي، تميل إلى التأثير على هذه العملية، وهي الدول المسؤولة عن دفع التكاليف... tinyurl.com/5xjn4bax

Sri Lanka recently reported a “fish rain,” where fish were found far from water bodies after heavy rains; but rather than falling from the sky, experts say these were amphibious fish that “walked” overland after the rains, making a rare but real phenomenon appear mysterious.

Dr Fadhel Kaboub argues that Africa can no longer afford to trade raw minerals for finished products: “Governments must invest in processing infrastructure. Refining, precursor production, and battery assembly should happen near the mines -not overseas” www.standardmedia.co.ke/business/env...

Fadhel Kaboub, president of the Global Institute for Sustainable Prosperity, argued that "Africa cannot transition by importing clean technology while exporting its minerals in an unprocessed state; that would merely repeat colonial dependency under a green label." nation.africa/kenya/climat...

The economist Fadhel Kaboub, who advises developing nations on climate, argues this is not “because of political will, but because the economics of renewables is winning”. Africa, he says, can generate about 1,000 times the electricity it will need in 2040 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Kaboub stressed the need to transform the global economic and geopolitical hierarchy to move away from colonial structures designed for extractive purposes towards a multi-polar world with the Global South at the center of the international economic order. sdg.iisd.org/news/global-...

the insanity that is replicating the mistakes from the past, this is not late capitalism, but brazen capitalism in the face of millions not making enough money for food, yet the market bet on technologies that will mostly permanently damage the social fabric and bring unemployment. SNAFU indeed.

Genocide tourism at its best! 250 state legislators attended the "50 States OneIsrael" conference this week. The largest bipartisan delegation. They pledged to support the genocide by passing anti-BDS legislations. This is the very unsocial truth that your favorite media network decided not to cover

Debt cancellation w/o structural transformation is a bandaid solution. No multipolar world can be born w/o Africa & the rest of the Global South being repositioned at the center of a new international economic order of peace, justice & sustainable prosperity. Kaboub explains youtu.be/Gs-ej_PuP0k

The Pope should have been leading a flotilla of humanitarian aid to Palestine instead of trying to hijack the Global Sumud Fotilla to participate in a genocide regime delivering "aid" in death traps for innocent civilians.
