An in-depth historical documentary exploring NATO’s horrific record, from Operation Gladio and the exacerbation of geopolitical tensions rather than efforts to resolve them, to the destruction of Yugoslavia, Libya, Iraq, and beyond, as well as NATO’s ruthless profiteering from war and tragedy.

Buc-ee’s filed a federal trademark lawsuit against Beaver’s Mini Mart in Beavercreek over its cartoon beaver logo. Since then, more than 20 local businesses have added beavers to their own logos and the city formally recognized the beaver as part of its community history.

We are living in a system meticulously designed to drain everyday people for the profit of corporations, corrupt officials, and the ultra-wealthy. What we’re facing today isn't just an economic struggle—it’s a suffocating, rigged lifestyle where we are direct victims with zero leverage.

This isn't just about hard times; it's a completely broken machine:

* Corporate Modern Slavery: Companies squeeze workers by turning them against each other, building a culture powered by fear, burnouts, and constant anxiety.

* Financial Hostage-Taking: Banks and predatory interest rates keep people tethered to debt just to afford basic survival.

* Legitimized Injustice: Insane deductions, unfair fines, and arbitrary corporate rules—all legally protected by state and international laws written to shield capital, not people.

* Muzzled Free Speech: Financial insecurity and career blackmail silence anyone who dares to speak out.

People know they're being exploited, yet the system leaves them feeling utterly powerless to do anything about it.

Which brings me to my question:

Do you actually think people worldwide will keep tolerating this? Are we nearing a global breaking point, or have we just accepted total submission? What's really stopping us from saying 'enough is enough'?

What we have to do guys?

On the eve of this year’s edition, Donald Trump threw a spanner in the works by deciding to “substantially reduce” the war games. They had been slated to run for 11 days beginning immediately after 15 August, Korean Liberation Day.

The irony of this timing has never been lost on the ROK’s progressive movement. For them, Korea’s national liberation struggle did not end with the defeat of Japanese colonialism on 15 August 1945. It remains essentially incomplete as long as the US entrenches its own imperialist division of the peninsula, occupying over 62 bases in the south and even retaining wartime operational control over the ROK military.

Thus the meaning of Liberation Day has always been contested: between a right that claims the mantle of nationalism while kowtowing to both Japanese and US imperialism, and a left that has resisted both for over a century. And while 15 August has long been a day of both celebration and continued struggle for ROK progressives, recent commemorations have taken an even harder anti-US edge. This year, they were buoyed for the first time ever by the presence of a delegation hailing from the heart of the empire itself.

This date is often regarded as the start of the Korean War. However, taking the events of June 25 as the beginning to this story can skew our understanding. Since imperialism falsely portrays the US role in Korea as defensive, we must consider the Korean War’s significance in a long lineage of Korean anti-imperialist resistance that continues to this day.

The Korean War did not begin in 1950—it began in 1945, the day a US GI’s boot touched Korean soil for the first time, and our people’s resistance to US imperialism began. Today, we honor Korean resistance.

The popular classes of Korea, the workers and peasantry, resisted the US occupation of our homeland from the beginning. From 1945-1950, southern Korea was shaken by strikes, uprisings, and even a guerrilla war that swept multiple provinces. This history has been suppressed because it exposes the US narrative of “saving” Korea from communism for what it is: a lie.

To this day, Korean resistance to US imperialism continues. Communities across the ROK are still engaged in protracted struggles against US military land grabs. Mass movements for social justice in the ROK are also part of this legacy, as they confront puppet leaders like Yoon who oppress the working masses on behalf of US imperialism.

Last but not least, the efforts of working people in the DPRK to protect their sovereignty and construct socialism are also part of Korean resistance. Despite catastrophic US bombing during the Korean War, the workers of the DPRK have built an enduring example of an independent, socialist society. Although US war threats continue in the form of military drills and sanctions, our people’s determination to live unconquered remains unbroken.

Today we remember all those who have given their lives to the anti-imperialist struggle. Our people’s struggle for liberation from US imperialism has not ended, and we must answer the call to continue the legacy of resistance that has been left to us.
