186. Operation Eternal Darkness: Militarism and AI Targeting in a Post-Accountability World
Colonial OutcastsShow Notes
Hello and Welcome to colonial outcasts the anti-imperialist podcast that examines systems of coercion, violence, and exploitation and not vibes. We are sick of everyone doing vibes based-analyses like Kamala Harris’s potential 2028 presidential campaign team who thinks that she just needs to get in with Mamdani and all the top-cop blood on her hands will be washed away. As the Iran war distance conflict resumes and the South of Lebanon continues to experience an entrenchment of occupation - we can also directly connect everything that’s happening here in the Imperial Core, data centers, the expanding national security and surveillance state, anti-tech radicalism, to all violence being enacted overseas. Because we are adults who are adult enough to face uncomfortable truth’s, namely “that it can absolutely happen here and is happening here. You remember how ICE has instituted “free speech zones” outside of their detention center at Delaney Hall in New Jersey? There is no basis in law for them to actually do this. But still, they’re doing it, just like Israel is, in contravention of all international law, creating pilot zones in the south of Lebanon. Facists love Zones. Every single type of zone except autonomous zones. And We are returning now to West Asia. Today we are joined by Janet Abou-Elias, a researcher at the Democratizing Foreign Policy Project at the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft and a co-founder of Women for Weapons Trade Transparency. Her work focuses on U.S. law and foreign policy, emerging technologies, and U.S. arms sales. https://x.com/Janetabouelias
