The new State Department is structured to promote internecine conflict and endless and meaningless wars. Because we have always been at war with Eastasia.
Per this comment: "The Office to Combat and Monitor Trafficking in Persons will still exist, but the invaluable decades of programming it supported to assist survivors of trafficking around the world and bring them justice will end, and instead its functions will be restricted to the production of an annual report."
I downloaded the attachment on the reorganization. It said the office will be refocused to the annual report. Does this mean programming will be cut? Do you have another source?
Hi Bama, Very thoughtful piece. I don't understand how Women Peace and Security work (via S/GWI) can be erased if its a law. Also what do you think will become of the Global Fragility Act implementation? Should we be advocating for congressional oversight or some other accountability?? Public pressure seems to work but there isn't energy for mobilizing a whole grassroots movement or series of movements against all of these things.
