Month: May 2023

Twenty years ago, President George W. Bush landed in a twin-engine Navy jet on an aircraft carrier, strode across the deck in a bulky flight suit and proceeded to give a televised victory speech under a huge red-white-and-blue banner announcing “Mission Accomplished.” For Bush, the optics on May 1, 2003 could hardly have been more triumphant. From […]

In every era throughout history, the aristocracy have been the wealthiest class and also have controlled their Government. Whereas in former eras, they were granted formal titles by the monarch or else by (in theocratically ruled countries) the clergy, the modern type has mainly eliminated that step and instead reigns only by buying the politicians […]

First reported by Michael Shellenberger, new details about the “Burisma leak” tabletop exercise of summer 2020 reveal a notable betrayal of principle by two famed papers. Last December, Michael Shellenberger reported in a #TwitterFiles thread that the Aspen Institute hosted a “Hack-and-Dump Working Group” exercise in the summer of 2020 titled, “Burisma Leak,” which predicted with uncanny […]

Suppose I tell you in advance that the essay you are reading is meant to startle you. And suppose I suggest, by way of demonstration, that two people as loosely connected as the leader of the “COVID Crisis Group” and Joe Biden’s “Special Envoy To Monitor and Combat Antisemitism” – both of whom have recently offered recommendations for […]

Artificial intelligence is looking to rule to the world, and Bill Gates believes it’s on its way to replacing teachers. “The AIs will get to that ability to be as good a tutor as any human ever could,” the Microsoft co-founder said at the ASU+GSV Summit in San Diego on April 18th. Gates made the […]

The armed conflict between the Palestinian people of the West Bank and Gaza continues against the Israeli forces who maintain the over 5 million residents under a brutal military occupation, with no human rights, and no freedom in sight. Steven Sahiounie of MidEastDiscourse interviewed Sami, the Bedouin, a Palestinian writer and blogger. He is originally […]

The Establishment crossed the opposition’s red line as part of their latest power play, practically daring people to publicly defy them and thus put their lives on the line, yet a large number of them are doing precisely that out of patriotic fervor since they fear losing their country. The post-modern coup that removed former Pakistani Prime […]

On April 17, 2023 Lee Jae-myung, leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, the country’s main opposition party, made a public apology, not in relation to his own personal situation, but in relation to past events which primarily involved Song Young-gil, his predecessor as party leader. Song Young-gil was the leader of the Democratic movement […]

The prospect of the same battle for the White House repeating itself sums up the country’s failure to accept that times are changing Joe Biden has decided to continue fighting the battle for America’s soul and has announced his intention to run for a second term as President. If he is successful, he will be […]

In August 1939, as he was finalizing plans for the invasion of Poland, Adolf Hitler was also engaged in negotiations with Pope Pius XII so delicate that not even the German ambassador to the Holy See knew about them. The existence of these talks was a secret the Vatican was eager to maintain long after Pius XII’s death—as it did […]

Thirty years ago, FBI tanks smashed into the ramshackle home of the Branch Davidians outside Waco, Texas. After the FBI collapsed much of the building atop the residents, a fire erupted and 76 corpses were dug out of the rubble. Unfortunately, the American political system and media have never honestly portrayed the federal abuses and political […]

The West’s cryptic or mocking remarks doubting the Kremlin statement on the failed Ukrainian attempt to assassinate President Vladimir Putin do not detract from the fact that Moscow has no reason on earth to fabricate such a grave allegation that has prompted the scaling down of its Victory Day celebrations on May 9, which is a triumphal […]

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will have to choose between peace talks with Moscow or the continuation of the conflict and the loss of more territory, former US Army Lieutenant Colonel Daniel Davis wrote in an article. “Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is loath to agree to any deal that leaves Ukrainian territory in Russian hands. The […]

When Stanford University’s woke law students heckled and stopped a speech by Judge Kyle Duncan, of the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals U.S., I was reminded that leftist control of universities has taken us back in time. Stanford’s future lawyers were enraged that Duncan refused, in an opinion, to call a “trans woman” prison inmate by the “correct” pronouns. These […]

The corruption engaged in by the Democratic Party leadership appears to be never-ending and no one is ever held accountable. A recent report described how Michael Morell, the former acting Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) director, colluded with Antony Blinken, who was then a senior official in the 2020 Joe Biden presidential campaign, to prepare and find signatories […]

Joe Biden and the deep state handlers have insulted our intelligence again after they trotted him out to claim that the U.S. banking system is “safe and sound” following the second-largest banking collapse in the country’s history. Less than two months after the collapse of two midsize financial institutions, First Republic took a dive and forced […]

Today’s column is going to make a brief and provocative claim: the third world needs more corruption, not less. What sparked this? I saw in the AP that the United States would be joining the UN in suspending food aid to the war-torn Tigray region in Ethiopia. Why? The AP reports: “USAID Administrator Samantha Power […]

In Part 1 and Part 2 of this series, we examined the ways in which Jewish media companies censor and suppress online views of the covid phenomenon and vaccine issue as presented by natural health doctor Joseph Mercola and Children’s Health Defense, and the way in which online journal Global Research managed to hide the fact that seven of the eight banking […]

The fight is on to hold the United States government responsible for colluding with social media companies to censor Americans’ free speech rights online. Missouri v. Biden, which was filed on May 5, 2022, has been taking quite the trip through the court system. It was amended three separate times, most recently to add an amendment that […]

Elon Musk, who has not removed shadow banning algorithms from Twitter even though he can and should, has claimed that prominent Democratic donor George Soros ‘wants to erode the fabric of civilization’ in a viral series of tweets. The SpaceX CEO lashed out at the left-wing financier soon after it emerged that he had dumped his […]

When Americans say they want news free of partisan bias or spin, you can wonder if that’s what people say, but not what people watch. Take, for example, the launch of NewsNation, originally pitched as an attempt to be objective, which quickly ended up with Chris Cuomo joining the cable channel as an “objective” host. […]

Attempts by the Pentagon to reach out to China’s military have so far been in vain, US Assistant Secretary of Defense Ely Ratner has claimed. Washington says it’s received no response from Beijing to a request for a meeting between the countries’ defense chiefs. The Pentagon’s attempts to reach out to China’s military in recent […]

It’s late April 1948, in Haifa, northern Palestine. After more than 25 years, British officers are leaving their “mandate” over the territory and have set a withdrawal date: 15 May. The exit is not going smoothly. Ethnic cleansing and violent atrocities are taking place across areas Britain is about to vacate.  Zionist armed groups, allowed to flourish in Palestine […]

So-yeon Schroeder-Kim, the wife of German ex-chancellor Gerhard Schroeder, was fired for visiting the Russian Embassy in Berlin. So-yeon Schroeder-Kim was dismissed after visiting the Russian Embassy in Berlin to commemorate the defeat of the Nazis. The wife of former German chancellor Gerhard Schroeder, So-yeon Schroeder-Kim, has been fired from her position at a business […]

The Bilderberg Group, which brings a handful of the world’s power elites together annually in secret meetings to strategize about geopolitics, technology, war and peace, is preparing to meet this weekend, May 18-21, in Lisbon, Portugal. The Group was co-founded in 1954 by Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands and a few other globalists affiliated with the […]

“Since when have we Americans been expected to bow submissively to authority and speak with awe and reverence to those who represent us? The constitutional theory is that we the people are the sovereigns, the state and federal officials only our agents. We who have the final word can speak softly or angrily. We can seek […]

The Pakistani population is rising up against its army and its political personnel. Everywhere, demonstrations are forming in support of the former Prime Minister, Imran Khan, who has just been released but is the subject of a hundred legal proceedings. Who is Imran Khan? Imran Khan comes from an illustrious Pashtun family. His father is […]

After more than a year of behind-the-scenes diplomacy, Syria’s membership in the Arab League of States (LAS) was finally restored when Arab foreign ministers reached a consensus on an issue that has been causing sharp divisions since the start of the Syrian crisis 12 years ago. On May 7, the Arab League’s foreign ministers adopted a […]

So, I finally heard from someone at Twitter about why they have been censoring my tweets with fake “age-restricted adult content” labels and damaging my income and reputation as an author by maliciously deceiving people into thinking I’m some kind of slimy pornographer. So I’m banging out a quick newsletter to fill you in, because […]

This week, the world was exposed to a disturbing, archaic and bizarre bit of pagentry not seen in over 70 years with the coronation of King Charles III as head of the Global British Commonwealth, head of the Anglican Church, and spokesman for a program dubbed Global Britain that was brought online as the official mandate of […]

On March 20, Chinese President Xi Jinping met with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow. In his article in the Russian media preceding the meeting, Xi enthused that “China-Russia trade exceeded 190 billion U.S. dollars last year, up by 116 percent from ten years ago.” Though it has reached 190 billion US dollars, it is no longer all being traded in […]

It’s now declared that Bakhmut has been taken by Russian forces. Capturing Strategic Donbas City, a Battle Where Russia Took On the Entire NATO Forces and Kiev Regime Vassal Mercenaries, and a battle that has Been Compared to That of Stalingrad since Kiev Regime throw everything it had to defend the un-defendable. Expect that Kiev […]

The Chinese are not only fully awake but fully cognisant of the Anglo-Saxons’ wiles in the debt, and semiconductor sectors, as well as in honey, Hello Kitty and all others. “Let China sleep. For when she wakes, the world will tremble”. Although The Dictionnaire Napoléon attributes this apothegm not to the great Napoleon (who loved […]

Over the weekend, Russia completed its military effort to seize control over the city of Bakhmut. Even as the leader of the Wagner group declared victory, announcing total control over the city, the delusional political leaders and military propagandists of western nations pretended that Ukraine still controlled Bakhmut, borrowing a page from transgenderism where a […]

Watching a once great nation commit suicide is not pretty. President Joe Biden does not seem to understand that his role as elected leader of the United States is to take actions that directly or indirectly benefit the folks who voted for him as well as the other Americans who did not do so. That is how […]

Roger Helbig, a man with an unhealthy obsession: he believes that depleted uranium (DU) waste from the nuclear fuel cycle, which is used in munitions and bullets – is safe. I received an unsolicited email from him, entitled ‘The Real Doug Rokke’ in response to an article I had written for The Brussels Tribunal. It read: […]

America’s military is the only branch of the federal Government that the American people respect, and “The military” is also the most respected of all institutions in America. The military is also the most corrupt part of the federal Government, and the only part of the federal government that’s so corrupt that it has never been audited. Although […]

When a mere subplot overnight assumes habitation and a name, it becomes more fascinating than the main plot itself. Syria’s return to the Arab League after its decade-long exclusion can be regarded as a sub-plot of the China-brokered rapprochement between Saudi Arabia and Iran. But then, China and Iran are not per se party to […]

Am I the only American to travel overseas and feel embarrassed by the conduct of the diplomats Washington sends abroad to speak for our republic? It is pretty strange to find yourself, an ordinary citizen, apologizing for the intrusive, cajoling, bullying, badgering and otherwise crude utterances of this or that ambassador in this or that […]

Here we are: the United States of America lies in total wreck and ruin and yet so few even know how we got here. PONERIZATION: How the American 800-pound gorilla was painstakingly trained to tyrannize the US citizenry and terrorize the world community of nations. THE HIGHLY ORGANIZED, SYSTEMATIC AND MULTI-DECADE PONERIZATION OF INSTITUTIONAL AMERICA […]

Alexander Dugin The future remains a mystery, an open book that no one can read with certainty. The same can be said about the present and the past; our understanding of them is far from absolute, resulting in diverse interpretations. The future is even more uncertain, especially when considering the ongoing brutal and intimidating conflict […]

I’ve recently published a couple of articles focused on the Neocons, the ideological faction that has now dominated American foreign policy for more than thirty years. Did the Neocons Save the World from the Thucydides Trap?Ron Unz • The Unz Review • April 18, 2023 • 6,500 Words Dislodging the Neocons, Difficult But NecessaryRon Unz • The Unz […]

A loading unit of the Druzhba pipeline in Russia’s Bryansk Region near Ukraine has been shelled by the Kiev regime, the Transneft oil company has confirmed. No one was hurt in the attempted terrorist attack in Bryansk Region, the oil company says. A loading station of the Druzhba oil pipeline in Russia’s Bryansk Region, near […]

The Arab League has agreed to reinstate Syria after a 12-year suspension over the ongoing civil war in the country. The country was suspended from the group for over a decade, and now the Arab states understood that US warmongering against legitimate President Bashar Assad and sovereign Arab state of Syria is not worth pursuing […]

When national student test scores revealed recently that knowledge of U.S. history and civics had reached an all-time low, one Republican lawmaker described the drop as an “outright failure that should concern every parent across the country.” The test scores showed that 86 percent of America’s eighth graders were not proficient in U.S. history, and 79 percent were not proficient in civics. […]

On 8 and 9 May, Berlin traditionally hosts numerous commemorative events to mark the end of the Second World War in Europe. On these two dates, the German Wehrmacht signed the unconditional surrender in 1945 in Reims, France, and in Berlin-Karlshorst, Germany. The Nazi regime was finally crushed. Adolf Hitler had committed suicide eight days earlier. The […]

The new president of the BRICS Bank has revealed that the Global South-led bloc is advancing toward de-dollarization, gradually moving away from use of the US dollar. The New Development Bank plans to give nearly one-third (30%) of its loans in the local currencies of the financial institution’s members. Dilma Rousseff, the left-wing former president of […]

The air defense system was hit by a Kinzhal projectile in Kiev, the Russian Defense Ministry has said. The Russian Kinzhal hypersonic missile has destroyed the Patriot air defense system in Kiev, the Defense Ministry said on Tuesday. “The high-precision strike of the Kinzhal hypersonic missile system in the city of Kiev hit a US-made Patriot anti-aircraft […]

A behavior control research project was begun in the 1950s, coordinated by the British psychological warfare unit called the Tavistock Institute, with the Scottish Rite Masons, the Central Intelligence Agency, and other British, U.S., Canadian, and United Nations agencies. The project became famous in the 1970s under a CIA code name, “MK-Ultra.” Its notoriety for […]

International Man: The US federal government has raised the so-called debt ceiling 104 times since 1944. Shouldn’t they call it a debt target instead of a debt ceiling? Is this whole thing a farce? Doug Casey: The situation is completely and irredeemably out of control. It’s a farce. Quite laughable, except for the fact it’s so deadly […]

Russia orders arrest of ICC prosecutor, so he is an outlaw now. Curious if he dares traveling now to China? India? Other BRICS country? The British lawyer who charged President Vladimir Putin with “war crimes” is now facing charges himself. The Russian Interior Ministry on Friday issued an arrest warrant for Karim Asad Ahmad Khan, […]

This month, Palestinians will mark 75 years since the Nakba, when the majority of Palestinians were violently and forcibly displaced from their land and not allowed to return home. This event is an opportunity to hear directly from Palestinians and Palestinian Americans, including survivors of the Nakba, about their own lived experiences. The Israeli government […]

April in Europe is what could be called Dark History Month. Between the morose commemorations of The Troubles in Northern Ireland, the Katyn massacre in Poland, the Chernobyl disaster in Ukraine and the genocide in Armenia. And several Eastern European countries host their Jewish Holocaust memorials in April. Even the Rwandan genocide is now commemorated, since […]

What has America learned from the colossal failure of the Iraq War? Not what it should have learned, notes historian (and retired U.S. Army colonel) Greg Daddis at War on the Rocks. Daddis recently attended a 20-year retrospective symposium on the Iraq War, where he heard two distinctive narratives. As he put it: Most, if not […]

The world media continues to discuss the results of Biden’s Ireland trip. Numerous “Sleepy Joe” feats and mishaps are in focus. One recalls his ungentle conversation with Rishi Sunak immediately after landing, his awkward tea party at the hotel instead of a dinner party, his call to “lick the world,” and his traditional communication with the […]

Ukraine released a list of US politicians it says “promotes Russian propaganda” by arguing against World War III and the US proxy war with Russia. The Zelensky regime says those who oppose the war are Russian mouthpieces. The Ukrainian Government issued an official blacklist of Americans, Brazilians and others it accused of being Kremlin assets […]

We have been warned decades ago by US President John F. Kennedy who gave a speech on the dangers the globalists pose to us all before the American Newspaper Publishers Association on April 27, 1961: It requires a change in outlook, a change in tactics, a change in missions–by the government, by the people, by every businessman or labor […]

The US with its EU vassals in tow has carried out a two-pronged attack on Russia. The first is Joe Biden’s cruel proxy war on Russia, with its cynical use of Ukrainians as cannon fodder. The second prong is the sanctions war designed to destroy Russia’s economy. The economic war is a failure. Russia has […]

The original vicious circle starts with inflationary interventions in an up-to-then well-anchored monetary regime. Consequent asset inflation spawns a banking crisis. That leads to the installation of anticrisis safety structures (one illustration is a novel or enhanced lender of last resort). Alongside a possible monetary regime shift, these damage the money’s anchoring system. A great […]

“Who would have thought in 2020 when they were voting for Joe, that they were voting for the most hardcore accelerationist collapsitarian candidate in history.” — Deep South SR on Twitter The creatures of the underworld running our country must think the public is awfully stupid. You are expected to take at face value the […]

On the few occasions when a government moves toward converting property or weapon production facilities into something useful for human beings, I can’t restrain a tumbling brainstorm: What if this signals a trend, what if practical problem-solving begins to trump reckless war preparation? And so, when Spain’s Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez announced on April 26 […]

Beijing will not send its delegation to a G20 meeting held in the Indian-controlled part of Kashmir Beijing said its officials will not travel to the disputed territory China will skip the upcoming G20 event in the Indian-controlled part of disputed Kashmir, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin said on Friday.  “China firmly opposes holding […]

If the Conservatives are hoping to get re-elected next year they may have to rethink their policy of banning the sale of new petrol- or diesel-powered cars by 2030. Electric cars are proving to be an unmitigated disaster. Indeed, scarcely a day passes without a story appearing in the Telegraph about just how terrible they […]

The major global economies are shifting and the clues are there for those who know where to look. The US currency is losing its luster with oil trade and international deals being increasingly conducted in other currencies. De-dollarization is increasingly making headlines and signs of it are everywhere.  New sources of non-dollar finance are emerging. […]

The USSR collapsed in on itself, not from the war in Afghanistan (1979-89), but from the Chernobyl disaster (April 26, 1989). The Soviets suddenly realized that the state was no longer in control. The members of the Warsaw Pact, whom Leonid Brezhnev had made vassals, revolted. The churches, the Communist Youth and the gays of […]

Next Saturday, May 13 2023, thousands will gather in London to attend a march organised by Palestine Solidarity Campaign and partners, supported by 10 national trade unions. They will march to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the Nakba, not as an historical moment of collective national trauma but as an ongoing process of colonisation, dispossession, and […]

The information here is based upon “The Discord Leaks” to the neoconservative Washington Post newspaper, exposing the U.S. Government’s virtually unanimous bipartisan neoconservatism, as leaked to it from the U.S. Government, by the small online group that the WP describes not as being anti-neoconservatives, but instead as being “united by their mutual love of guns, military gear […]

The inventors of artificial intelligence went before Congress last week and warned that without government supervision, the emerging technology could be employed by the unscrupulous to mislead people and spread falsehoods. It’s frightening, but not without precedent. If you want to know what it would look like if an AI were programmed to be relentless, […]

Russian jamming efforts have been making HIMARS rocket launchers less accurate, CNN reports. The US-made weapon system has become “increasingly less effective,” a source told the network, confirming that the Russians have found way to throw HIMARS rockets off course. Russia has been using jamming techniques in recent months to make the US-supplied HIMARS mobile […]

The hot war is in the hands of the Russian Armed Forces and NATO. There is nothing, besides joining up, we can do about it. Here is transexual CIA “journalist” Sarah Ashton-Cirillo, dressed in the uniform of Ukraine’s Nazis, holding his weapon sideways (ha ha) denouncing Chilean-American Gonzalo Lira, who should really have fled Zelensky’s […]

The World Health Organization (WHO) is still going ahead with its global digital health certificate even as it claims the COVID-19 scamdemic is finally over. The medical tyranny being pushed on the public is still there and is only going to get worse. The implementation of the digital health certificate is among the 307 amendments […]

The United States has personally witnessed its disastrous foreign policy in West Asia in the twenty-first century, from the force landings to the development of its infamous “democracy” to the alleged surgical strikes. The “success” of Washington’s “destabilization” of the continent with fear and destruction over the past 20 years has come at the cost […]

Speech by Hezbollah Secretary-General, Sayed Hassan Nasrallah, on May 12, 2023 (one day before the ceasefire in Gaza), commemorating the martyrdom of Commander Mustapha Badreddine, known as “Zulfiqar,” killed in Syria in 2016. Translation: resistancenews.org Transcript: […] I will now address what is happening today in Gaza and (occupied) Palestine, and the battle that is currently […]

House Oversight Chairman James Comer on Wednesday held a press conference on the Biden Crime Family. House Republicans announced they now have reviewed 170 suspicious activity reports linked to the Biden Crime Family. Comer identified the NINE Bidens implicated in corruption.   “Joe Biden’s son. Joe Biden’s brother. Joe Biden’s brother’s wife. Hunter Biden’s girlfriend/Beau Biden’s widow, Hunter Biden’s […]

What did China get from the West? — Millions of opium addicts. By 1905, it has been calculated, 27% of Chinese males had become addicted to opium, with “13.5 million people consuming 39,000 tons of opium yearly.” The Chinese experience proves that countries do not have to tolerate drug use; the United States is currently under […]

“Suppose our imaginations can embrace the possibility that the 9/11 attacks were orchestrated by elements in the U.S. government. In that case what do we do next? There is no mystery. Once the imagination stops filtering out a hypothesis and allows it into the realm of the possible, it can be put to the test. […]

After WWI the US took over from the UK, now BRICS from the US The US is teetering on the edge of a recession. Now the renewed banking turmoil and the country’s imminent insolvency could lead to a crash. Why the central bank is largely powerless. In times of uncertainty, the longing for simple truths […]

Any allegation that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on 24 February 2022 started this war is a blatant lie. On May 12th, Germany’s Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock accused the Government of South Africa by saying, “Anyone who supplies weapons to the aggressor in a war is doing the opposite of ending the war.” But who is the aggressor […]

Logistical problems and political fatigue in Europe could hamstring Kiev’s counteroffensive, while Russia’s risks involve the potentially destabilizing consequences of the Defense Ministry-Wagner Group rivalry continuing, independently existing defensive difficulties along the Line of Contact, and a reluctance to escalate. The NATO-Russian proxy war in Ukraine is reaching its most critical moment thus far as Kiev prepares to […]

If you wanted to destroy the middle class, one way that you could accomplish that goal would be to flood the system with money.  Of course that is precisely what we have witnessed over the past few years. Our leaders have pumped trillions of new dollars into the system, and the wealthy have gotten much, […]

We are in for 19 months of relentless, insultingly transparent spin by way of which a patently incompetent man will be purveyed as commander in chief for another four years. Joe Biden announces — via a video, not in person so we can see him live — that he will run for reelection in 2024. […]

Why China and its trading allies are well placed to topple the dollar After decades meting out sanctions and financial coercion, the US may soon feel its grip on world trade beginning to loosen. Change is good, but dollars are better, a US author of romance novels once wrote. A similarly light-hearted sentiment often inspires […]

Alexander Dugin Let us look at the main actors in the war unfolding in Ukraine. Here we can refer to the ‘geopolitical chessboard’ metaphor introduced by Zbigniew Brzezinski. Obviously, the territory of Ukraine, and to some extent Russia, is a ‘chessboard’ on which the global geopolitical confrontation is taking place. At the same time, Kiev […]

Mexico is by no means the only notable recent defector from the “international community,” Stephen Karganovic writes. Among high-profile defections from the “international community,” due to its geopolitical stature Mexico stands out. But it is by no means the only notable recent defector. African governments en masse are renouncing compliance with the “rules based order.” […]

  Excerpts from Pepe Escobar’s interview for Sputnik with Ekaterina Blinova. The Biden administration’s policy of simultaneously confronting both Russia and China is doomed to fail, Pepe Escobar, geopolitical analyst and veteran journalist, told Radio Sputnik’s New Rules podcast. “It’s so absurd, that obviously these neocons, they haven’t even read [Zbigniew] Brzezinski,” Escobar said, referring […]

On April 26, Mary Zhao, a writer for Radio Free Asia, wrote a bizarre piece attacking China for not providing “transgender girls with necessary medicines,” exposing once again the absurd lengths to which the US propagandists will go to undermine a nation it has targeted. The same day, they posted a cartoon of French President Macron portrayed […]

China’s CNOOC reported the receipt of the first cargo of liquefied natural gas that the company paid for in Chinese yuan in the latest instance of the ongoing diversification of international energy trade. The state energy firm, as quoted by China Daily, said it had bought 65,000 tons of LNG from the UAE, noting that settling international […]

The West, with its decadence, its Democrats and Republicans, still lives in Rome’s savage shadow, where we are always at war with Eastasia and, thus, with ourselves. This article expands upon elements of Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova’s recent comment that “the Germans are rewarding the non-Nazi Zelensky for the fratricidal massacre, the abolition […]

On May 19-21, 2023, Hiroshima, Japan will host the G7 summit. It is already clear that it will take place in an atmosphere of Western exceptionalism, as evidenced by the results of the last ministerial meeting in the city of Karuizawa, where high-ranking diplomats from the G7 expressed their position on a number of issues. These […]

The Russian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson says declarations of the Ukrainian intelligence chief Kirill Budanov are proof that the US President Joe Biden’s administration is “sponsoring terrorism”. In an interview for Yahoo News, conducted last month but only published earlier this week, General Kirill Budanov, the Ukrainian intelligence chief, admitted that the Ukrainian Main Directorate of Intelligence (GUR) has […]

Many Middle Eastern experts are increasingly focused on how the outcome of Turkey’s pivotal elections in May could alter the regional order. Turkish citizens will vote in presidential and legislative elections that might be pivotal in the country’s volatile national politics and ambition for regional prominence. At the same time, the May 14 twin elections […]

Today, a new report from the Institute for Agriculture and Trade Policy’s Timothy A. Wise documents how the United States’ practice of agricultural dumping of cheap exports into Mexico has hampered the Mexican government’s efforts to improve food self-sufficiency. From 2014 to 2020, the U.S. exported corn and wheat at prices 10% and 27% below […]

It comes as no surprise that the United States and the European Union didn’t have the face to commend the performance of Recep Erdogan and his party in the presidential and parliamentary elections in Turkiye on Sunday. The election results do not serve the geopolitical interests of the US and its European allies. It is […]

A new film imagines the possibility of a voluntary euthanasia scheme being introduced in Japan for all over 75s as a “solution” to Japan’s ageing population. The film, Plan 75, imagines a Japan in which state-sponsored euthanasia is encouraged for all Japanese citizens over the age of 75 so that they might avoid ‘being a […]

Democrat presidential hopeful Robert F. Kennedy Jr. sat down with Freddie Sayers the Editor-in-Chief of Unhurd and had a lot of interesting things to say about the CIA. The topic of the CIA got brought up when Sayers asked Kennedy what kind of approach he plans to take with the CIA. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. […]

Filipinos Don’t Want to Be Used as a “Footstool for American Power Projection and Provocation” Says Filipino Peace Activist This past month, more than 3,000 U.S. and Filipino soldiers participated in a three-week live-fire military exercise called Balikatan, which included a drill to blow up a mock Chinese warship in the South China Sea. The exercises coincided […]

West Asia is a region that is currently experiencing a great deal of geopolitical activity. Recent diplomatic efforts, initiated by Russia and overseen by China, secured a long-elusive Iranian and Saudi Arabian rapprochement, while Syria’s return to the Arab League has been welcomed with great fanfare. The diplomatic flurry signals a shift away from the Imperial “Divide […]

The US and allies trying to use Ukraine as a bludgeon to subdue the world are instead hastening the demise of their own empire of shame This whole Ukrainian episode of the Forever War is more and more like a caricature every day. In the first place, it’s not a Ukrainian war. We have to […]

Yes, you read the headline correctly.  Collectively, the three big banks that have collapsed in 2023 had more assets than all 25 banks that collapsed in 2008 did.  Unfortunately, the banking collapse of 2023 is far from over.  We still have eight more months to go before this year is done, and many more banks […]

From May to December of last year, tens of thousands more Brits than usual died for mysterious reasons – or so that is what the corporate media is claiming while avoiding all talk of Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) “vaccines.” The Mirror, a British tabloid, reported that Brits “are dying in their tens of thousands,” but that “we don’t really […]

If the US feels that it’s obtained a decisive edge over China through the crystallization of AUKUS+ and upon maximally stockpiling weapons in Taiwan, then it might even seek to provoke a conflict that wargamers convinced themselves Beijing would lose, which is a frightening scenario that can’t be ruled out. The US is shaping the […]

People are going to the border between the United States and Mexico. At midnight, a rule that has been keeping people from crossing the border will end. Crowds of people are gathering along the U.S.-Mexican border as Title 42, which has allowed border agents to remove migrants on public health grounds during the pandemic, lifts […]

eality isn’t what it used to be. It never really was, but that’s another story. This one isn’t about reality per se. It’s about the War on Reality, the one we’re in the middle of, the war that started when the War on Terror was cancelled in the Summer of 2016. It’s actually an extension […]
