As crazy as it may sound to some, Russia embodies my principles much more than the three governments associated with my triple identity. I can’t in good conscience support the American, Polish, and Ukrainian interpretations of this crisis since they’re based on false claims aimed at gaslighting the public into misperceiving Russia as the ‘aggressor’ […]
The western mass media and governments have fallen into a frenzy of anti-Russian propaganda over Russia’s military operations in Ukraine. One element of their propaganda war is the claim that Russia’s action is illegal under international law. But is this the case and what does it mean for these countries to make that claim when […]

Wednesday on Fox Business Network’s “Mornings with Maria,” former President Donald Trump ripped President Joe Biden over his poor approval ratings. A recent ABC News/Washington Post poll showed only 37% of adults in the United States approve of the way Biden is handling his job. Citing the rising crime, especially in “Democrat-run cities,” Trump said he didn’t […]
The Putin-Macron Summit can be considered a positive step in the direction of Europe playing a larger role in actively attempting to de-escalate Russian-NATO tensions and resolve the Ukrainian Civil War, but it was far from the game-changing event that the French President misportrayed it as. French President Emmanuel Macron traveled to Moscow on Monday […]
Threw his people into a needless bloody war for the benefit of global warmongers and has left them on their own. Zelensky Has Fled Kiev for Lvov (town 15 kilometers from the Polish border) Russian State Duma Speaker Says On 24 February, Russia launched a military operation in Ukraine after the breakaway republics of Donetsk […]
Our forefathers, those brilliant men, who joined together to give us a framework to build our incredible country, were wise enough to plan for the future. They put their lives on the line starting with the Declaration of Independence and the revolution that gave America freedom from England. They then crafted the most unique blueprint […]
One look at the surge in oil, gas and various other commodities like wheat, confirms what everyone by now knows: unleashing hell against Russia in the form of the nuclear SWIFT option coupled with central bank sanctions may crush the Russian economy but it will also will lead to a harrowing price shock for ordinary […]
Israel has warned of a potential crisis with the UAE over an aviation security dispute that is threatening to halt its airlines flights to the Gulf country.

Alexander Dugin In an interview for the Tsargrad channel, Alexander Dugin reflects on the unfolding of the conflict in Ukraine and its civilizational, existential elements and as a sign of multipolarity. If the matter were only the restoration of the territorial integrity of the DPR and the LPR – which we recognize as independent states […]
There are few words to describe the depth of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s depravity. I’m not going to even try. This is a person (because no real man would ever govern like him) is so thoroughly ill-prepared for its job it doesn’t even know how to properly read from the prepared script. It was […]
Reports on social media say a loud “explosion” was heard in eastern Ukraine on Saturday . The news comes amid heightened tensions between NATO and Russia Several unverified reports on social media and in local media have claimed that a large bang was heard in the territory of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People’s Republic in eastern […]
Simply put, the US China containment’ policies have failed miserably. The US is increasingly belligerent in its efforts to stifle China’s rise and pressure its allies to do the same. But none of the tactics – trade wars, “freedom of navigation” operations (FONOPs), pushing allies to ditch Huawei equipment or the Belt and Road Initiative […]
The BEAR Roared and the EAGLE Is Naked This is what happens when a bunch of ragged hyenas, jackals and tiny rodents poke The Bear: a new geopolitical order is born in breathtaking speed. From a dramatic meeting of the Russian Security Council to a history lesson delivered by President Putin and the subsequent birth of […]
An introduction of Polish troops seems the most realistic of the existing options of quick assistance to Ukraine. If this happens, it would be a big victory for London and Washington in the short term, but the consequences of this in the long haul will be hard to predict. Just as Russia continues its peace […]
What the so-called Russian experts and politicians all forget is that the US does not have troops scattered about in Poland, Romania, the Baltic states and other Eastern European late comers to NATO because Washington cares about these countries and feels morally obliged to protect them from Russia, which does not want them. In truth, […]
Economic sanctions serve as a powerful foreign policy tool for the US government. But could this ultimately backfire on the US? Over the last several years, many countries have made a concerted effort to limit dependence on the US dollar. The economic warfare waged against Russia reveals exactly why. The US hit Russia with a […]
The Department of Justice has vowed to crack down on ‘corporate greed’. The US Department of Justice will investigate and prosecute those found to be exploiting supply chain issues to make higher profits.

Canada has moved to make the asset freezing part of its Emergencies Act, which was used to target supporters of the Freedom Convoy protests, a permanent fixture, writes Paul Joseph Watson via Summit News. Wow, who saw that one coming? In order to stop what the Trudeau regime referred to as “illegal blockades,” the government […]
In World War II, we Americans did not go to war with Germany for Great Britain, when it declared war on Hitler’s Germany and then was defeated in France. We went to war with Germany only when Hitler declared war on us, four days after Pearl Harbor in December 1941. When several NATO nations revealed […]
The DPR Head Denis Pushilin has signed the decree on mobilization on Saturday morning calling on “all males capable to take up arms to rise to protect their families, children, wives, and mothers.” The head of the Donetsk People’s Republic has called on all able men to stand up to “Kiev’s aggression” The leaders of […]
Conservatives’ reluctance to be as assertive as the left has seen them lose valuable ground in the culture wars. Conservatives have given the left free rein to dismantle cultural norms. The time to fight back has arrived. For too long, the right has given the left not only the leeway to get away with anything, […]
My old boss Herman Kahn, with whom I worked at the Hudson Institute in the 1970s, had a set speech that he would give at public meetings. He said that back in high school in Los Angeles, his teachers would say what most liberals were saying in the 1940s and 50s: “Wars never solved anything.” […]
Western audiences, completely in the dark as to the true nature of the Ukrainian standoff, have no idea to the back story that led to the events of February 24, 2022. Despite having at our disposal the most powerful communication technologies ever assembled, people around the world are arguably less knowledgeable about the true nature […]
Partisans the world over prefer to see no evil on their own side. Yet even by the rock-bottom standards of modern politics, it’s appalling to watch the trans-Atlantic liberals elide, excuse, and obfuscate the presence of neo-Nazis and other ideological ghastlies among their champs in places like Ukraine and Hungary. Start with embattled Ukraine. On […]
The US State Department has evacuated Ukraine embassy staff from Ukraine to Poland on Monday, amid fears that Russia will launch an attack on Kiev, Bloomberg reports. War fears escalated on Monday, after Vladimir Putin announced that Moscow would immediately recognize the breakaway Donbass republics of Donetsk (DPR) and Lugansk (LPR) as sovereign nations. The […]
This war must be immediately terminated before it expands and sucks in the European NATO States and the United States. Towards that end, President Biden must publicly announce that NATO Expansion is over for good and that Ukraine, Georgia and Moldova will not be joining NATO as member States. President Biden must also call for […]
Joe Biden on Tuesday delivered his first State of the Union address. It can be summed up in one short paragraph. Biden’s speech was marred by gaffes – as usual. Joe Biden confused Ukrainians and Iranians and said Putin will pay a high price for his invasion of Ukraine…”and a pound of Ukrainian people.” Putin will […]
See Part I for how RAND and its creed “systems analysis” was created and how Albert Wohlstetter would ultimately become the kingpin of RAND.

VERSAILLES, France – The Ukraine, a former Soviet republic that has sought to join the EU and NATO, has called for fast-track accession to the EU since the Feb. 24 invasion. “I understand very well that, when you fight courageously like Ukraine does, you would want much more. But we are not a side to […]
Credit Suisse analyst Zoltan Pozsar says Ukraine triggered a perfect storm in commodities that could weaken the Eurodollar system, contribute to inflation in Western economies, and threaten their financial stability. Pozsar said China’s central bank is uniquely placed to backstop such crisis, paving the way for a much stronger yuan. Reuters , Mar. 13, 2022. Saudi Arabia Considers […]

Ottawa police are threatening Canadian truckers with arrests, fines and seizing their vehicles if they continue the “Freedom Convoy” protest Police in the Canadian capital of Ottawa have threatened the “Freedom Convoy” protesters on Wednesday with fines, arrests and […]
The info-terrorism campaign that was launched not just against Russia and even the US-led West’s Ukrainian ‘allies’ but also against the entire global public largely succeeded in manipulating popular opinion against Moscow by misportraying this crisis as being over nothing more than a sliver of deindustrialized and war-torn territory along the Ukrainian border. Russian Foreign […]
Up until February 23rd, 2022, the powerful countries of the world played a very rarified game. Too many people try to analyze geopolitics like it is a game of chess. Move, counter-move. Push a pawn? Threaten a knight, that type of thing. It’s easy to understand and makes for good copy. In the past I’ve […]

An Australian special forces soldier has testified to atrocities committed by his comrade as part of an unfolding defamation lawsuit against several Australian media outlets. Ben […]
Denouncing truckers for “unacceptable views,” Canada’s Prime Minister skipped town rather than face evidence of his own unpopularity. Is neoliberalism finally cracking? On the morning of the 21st of December, 1989, Romanian General Secretary Nicolae Ceaușescu was in a foul mood. The Berlin Wall had fallen, and Mikhail Gorbachev and George H.W. Bush had recently […]
When the state / empire loses the ability to recognize and solve core problems of security and fairness, it will be replaced by another arrangement that is more adaptable and adept at solving problems. From a systems perspective, nation-states and empires arise when they are superior solutions to security compared to whatever arrangement they replace: feudalism, […]
Will ‘freedom convoys’ escalate further in Europe? The situation with Canada-inspired trucker protests is particularly delicate in France because of the upcoming election. The ‘Freedom Convoy’ has well and truly arrived in Europe. Inspired by the protests in Canada, those opposed to mask mandates and Covid passports have descended on Paris and caused a day […]
There is a growing discourse about the striking parallels in the situations around Taiwan and Ukraine. Proponents of geopolitics revive the basic tenet of its modern edition, which was originated by Alfred Thayer Mahan and Halford Mackinder. With certain variations, both of them had, over a hundred years ago, proposed the hypothesis of an irreducible […]
Data recently released by the New Zealand government showed fully vaccinated individuals developing acquired immunodeficiency syndrome or AIDS, showing major degradation of the immune system. Just like other governments before, the New Zealand Ministry of Health only provides a cumulative total of Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) cases from August 16, 2021, showing misleading numbers considering that the nation […]
The Russian military confirmed on Friday that it will move up nuclear weapons exercises which had been previously scheduled to take place later the year, as a warning to the West as the Ukraine crisis grows hotter. Typically the drills take place in the fall, but will now be part of the current climate of ‘muscle […]
According to Director General of Roscosmos Dmitry Rogozin, the technical data makes this rocket invulnerable to both existing and future US and NATO missile defense systems. Russia’s Sarmat missile can hit targets at virtually unlimited ranges, Dmitry Rogozin. Ouch! Sarmat Launch Leaves US a Decade Behind in Nuclear Deterrent VT reports. MOSCOW, April 23. /TASS/. […]
A little-known aspect of the disastrous Western occupation of Afghanistan was that UK and Australian companies sought to access the country’s $3 trillion worth of untapped minerals – with little regard for the welfare of Afghans. The Taliban’s takeover of Afghanistan in August last year has caused the country to implode. It was already on […]
Civil liberties have been sacrificed to the culture war. Last month I gave a speech at the ‘Kill the Bill’ rally in Westminster, with a bunch of fellow lefties who were rightly angry at Priti Patel’s proposed Policing Bill, which would have essentially outlawed protests. Jeremy Corbyn was there (obviously), as were other well-known names […]
Edible oil prices soared this week, prompting fears that record-high food prices could be imminent. On Wednesday, soybean oil futures in Chicago hit their highest levels since 2008, and palm oil, the commodity used in thousands of food products, jumped to new highs. Soybean prices increased 1.4% to 71 cents per pound, the highest level […]
Propaganda isn’t just about manufacturing consent for wars and ridiculous governmental measures we’d never normally accept. That’s what most people think of when they hear that word, but there’s so very, very much more to it than that. The lion’s share of propaganda goes not toward convincing us to accept new agendas of the powerful, […]
Another Sunday, and Biden’s national security adviser is at it again making the rounds on the big network news shows, warning the Russian invasion will invade Ukraine “any day now” – at this point a familiar refrain we’ve heard for multiple weeks running… “We cannot perfectly predict the day, but we have now been saying for […]
Should we censor false information from Putin? The problem with censorship, in this case, is less about the rights of Russian propagandists as it is about the rights of other people to hear them. These words of George Orwell strike me as relevant: “A phrase much used in political circles in this country is ‘playing […]
The Russian Defence Ministry earlier announced that the United States had poured money into biological research facilities in Ukraine, alleging they may have been used in order to create biological weapons and conduct bat coronavirus-related experiments. Among the goals of the biological research laboratories in Ukraine suspected of having been funded by the United States […]
It’s easy for folks to get caught up in the US-led West’s pressure to classify any given state as taking one side or another while ignoring those that have impressively remained neutral, but it would be best for everyone to appreciate the many countries in that last-mentioned category a lot more than they presently are. […]
Three United States military doctors have blown the whistle on documents allegedly from The United States Department of Defense (DoD) that they had access to, which show “skyrocketing rates of disease” since the introduction and mandating of the CCP virus vaccines in armed forces, human rights attorney Leigh Dundas told The Epoch Times. Dundas was recently approached […]
A Government of National Unity should be overseen by the UN, if possible, or else allow Yemen to split into North and South Yemen as per pre-1990 boundaries. In military history, the term “we learn from history, that we never learned from history” could be no truer than in Yemen. Two wars are raging in […]
As soon as Moscow received an American response to its security demands in Ukraine, it answered indirectly by announcing greater military integration between it and three South American countries, Nicaragua, Venezuela and Cuba. Washington’s response, on January 26, to Russia’s demands of withdrawing NATO forces from Eastern Europe and ending talks about a possible Kyiv membership in […]
If there was one thing that predictably united the usually squabbling Roman elite, it was the emergence of a perceived threat to Rome’s Mediterranean and near-continental hegemony. To some degree, however difficult to calculate, it is impossible to deny that the dissolution of the Soviet Union has been responsible for the increasing polarization of American […]
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is seeking to block federally funded housing organizations from incentivizing child trafficking promoted by President Joe Biden’s border crisis by stripping their licenses to operate.

The Russian Federation has agreed to postpone the payment of certain debts owed to it by the Republic of Cuba, the country that for decades struggle with inhuman US sanctions, allowing the island country until 2027 to repay billions of dollars worth in foreign debt. These debts, worth a total of $2.3 billion, are the result […]
Russia appears ready to negotiate and the contours of a war-ending deal are in sight Vladimir Putin opened the invasion of Ukraine with a punitive, brutal campaign, announcing Russia would force Ukraine to surrender, subject its leaders to trials as Nazis committing genocide and claiming Russia had been forced to protect its own security. Ukrainian […]
It’s of urgent importance that the Western public realizes that the self-proclaimed ‘Antifa’ networks all across their civilizational ‘sphere of influence’ are actually faux-antifascists in that many of their tactics amount to the imposition of fascist policies under the Orwellian label of supposedly being ‘anti-fascist’. Those cells don’t have an exclusive monopoly on what constitutes […]
Alexander Dugin The crisis that relations between Russia and the West are experiencing today has nothing to do with gas, oil, energy resources or the economy. Attempts to explain politics as a kind of competition for a certain “Prize”, as Daniel Yergin does, are quite superficial and vain. What is happening is part of the […]
Nebraska on Jan. 28 became the 17th state to push for a convention of states to make changes to the U.S. Constitution—an unconventional process that’s never been used before. Under Article V of the Constitution, calling a convention to amend the U.S. constitution would require approval from two-thirds of U.S. states, or 34 of 50 […]

Ponzi schemes keep going until the perpetrator is stopped from the outside. They never stop by of their own volition. Bernie Madoff kept going until it all blew up. In the year 2000 the Nasdaq composite exceeded a P/E of 200 before collapsing 78% by October 2002. The more successful a Ponzi the more egregious […]

Top officials at a U.S. federal cybersecurity agency are urging a judge not to authorize at this time the release of a report that analyzes Dominion Voting Systems equipment in Georgia, arguing doing so could assist hackers trying to “undermine election security.” Jen Easterly, the director of Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, answers questions during her confirmation hearing […]
India, and especially Israel, are very close American military-strategic partners in their own way just like Japan is but only the last-mentioned surrendered its strategic autonomy, not to mention without even getting anything in exchange. This shows that only the first two are truly independent in formulating their grand strategies while Japan is doomed to […]
Chris Hedges introduces his latest article for Scheer Post, titled “Chronicle of a War Foretold“, with the following: “After the fall of the Soviet Union, there was a near universal understanding among political leaders that NATO expansion would be a foolish provocation against Russia.

It is not clear yet whether the Ukraine crisis will end peacefully, or whether war will erupt on European soil. Nevertheless, several observations are in order. For years, many in the West have celebrated the reduced utility of military force in international relations. Scholars heralded “the end of history” and the reign of a norm-based […]

Far-left Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is facing mounting frustration in his side of the political aisle for failing to act in the face of growing “Freedom Convoy” protests against coronavirus-related mandates – frustration he tried to stem by making a last-minute appearance in Parliament on Monday night. Trudeau announced that he had tested positive for […]
With China refusing to bend the knee to Washington’s “denounce Putin” demands, it appears the Biden administration’s narrative that the world is united against Russia is creaking at the seams as Bloomberg reports that cheap Russian Urals crude is finding willing buyers in India. And why wouldn’t they… With Urals Crude trading at a stunning […]
The western media are blaring headlines today about a “revelation” by the US government which does not actually reveal anything because it contains nothing but empty narrative fluff. “U.S. reveals Russian plot to use fake video as pretense for Ukraine invasion,” reads a headline from CBS News. “US reveals Russia may plan to create fake pretext for […]

Anyone familiar with my scribbling knows that I separate modern society into two categories: World Turners and The Useless. Me? I’m no World Turner. I’m one of The Useless. What I mean is this: If everyone who does what I do for a living stopped doing it today, the world would keep right on turning. […]
What about the big lie that the vast majority of intellectuals seem to accept? Regular readers know what I am talking about.

Two aging Canadian folk-singers, Neil Young and Joni Mitchell, the Adam and Eve of the ’60s, are protesting again. Against what? China’s genocide against the Muslim Uighurs?

The described backdrop to the latest round of Russian war hysteria is especially dangerous since it suggests that President Zelensky has lost control of the situation and that the prerogative for initiating hostilities rests on the shoulders of those mercenary forces that are under foreign control. PBS national security correspondent Nick Schifrin became the talk […]
Just one of multiple plans that have been revealed for truckers’ convoys in America to protest COVID mandates and the multiple impacts of Joe Biden’s presidency, such as exploding fuel prices, already is confirming there are 1,000 trucks lined up to take part. Just imagine 18,000 wheels on the Beltway around Washington, D.C., used by […]
The US and EU are over-reaching on Russian sanctions. The end result could be the de-dollarization of the global economy and massive commodity shortages worldwide… So a congregation of NATO’s top brass ensconced in their echo chambers target the Russian Central Bank with sanctions and expect what? Cookies? What they got instead was Russia’s deterrence […]
Argentina is trapped in $44 billion of IMF odious debt taken on by corrupt right-wing regimes. Seeking alternatives to US hegemony, President Alberto Fernández traveled to Russia and China, forming an alliance with the Eurasian powers, joining the Belt and Road Initiative.

As Russian philosopher and political analyst Aleksandr Dugin says, the unipolar world, globalist ideology, and Western hegemony are collapsing, and the US doesn’t want to sit idly by.

The Polish-Ukrainian-UK alliance might be annoying for Russia but it likely won’t serve as a major impediment to its regional policies. Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmygal said on Tuesday while speaking with his Polish counterpart that “I hope that in the near future we will be able to officially launch a new regional format of cooperation Ukraine-Poland-UK.” […]
It’s tempting to think that Fed Chairman Jerome Powell deserves the pickle he’s in: He ignored inflation as “transitory” when it wasn’t. Now — after one of the biggest policy blunders in recent Fed history — he needs to raise interest rates, maybe significantly. But the timing couldn’t be worse: A necessary and significant rate […]

Costantino Ceoldo “When they asked the Spartans why they had such short swords, they replied: to be closer to the enemy.” How far these words are in time, for us who today live the madness in the Draghistan once called “Italy” … From 1 February 2022 the Italians have new rules of behavior. Crazy rules. […]
After Canadian government officials lied to convince crowd funder platform GoFundMe to try and steal as much as $10 million donated to help take care of thousands of truckers protesting insane COVID vaccine and other mandates, now they are moving to “freeze” millions more collected on Delaware-based Christian-themed platform GiveSendGo. “The Ontario Superior Court of […]
So… You effectively declared a cold war on your two most powerful adversaries at the same time, bullying and harassing them with the military and sanctioning them.

The official US embassy website recently REMOVED all evidence of bio-labs in Ukraine. These bio-labs are funded and jointly operated by the US Department of Defense (DOD).

“Do the Russians want war?” This is the type of headlines in Middle Eastern media reports on the recent Western-led information campaign dealing with the alleged military threat posed by Russia. The mosaic of approaches and opinions is wide-ranging. Some commentators take a light-hearted view of the events and adopt theses of Western propagandists, muddled […]
The prime minister earlier claimed Keir Starmer had failed to prosecute deceased sex offender Jimmy Savile Opposition leader Sir Keir Starmer was accosted by anti-lockdown protesters outside parliament and accused of being a “traitor” and of “protecting pedophiles” on Monday evening. The anti-lockdown protesters chanted the name of deceased sex predator Jimmy Savile, and repeated […]
Well, we all know these sects waiting for subsequent dates of the End of the World. Did the believers draw any conclusions as the date passed and the World did not end? No, they just adapted smoothly to another one, again quite certain and final. Reactions to the next “absolutely certain and final dates of […]
A changing of the guard is standard for fiat currencies – but bitcoin is set to supplant them all… Bitcoin Is a Blessing and a Curse, Says Saylor. If the last 700 years are any indication, reserve currencies have a shelf life of roughly 100 years. The U.S. dollar (USD) officially became the world reserve […]
If the west is able to discover the moral fitness to survive at this late stage of decay, it will be due to our rediscovery of this lost heritage and recognize its living expression in the Russian-Chinese alliance today. In my last essay, I made the case that a specifically Eurasian expression of Manifest Destiny has […]
In the last few years, Turkey’s economy has been caught in a drawn-out recession, largely due to the increasing costs related to the current model of economic growth. And as the economy is deteriorating, so is the political and economic situation in the country, forcing President Erdogan to make choices which are far from popular. […]
For many weeks now, the President of the United States Joseph Biden, his Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, and Secretary of State Antony Blinken have been telling the world that “it is certain that Russia will invade Ukraine,” that an “invasion is imminent,” that “it might occur any time before the end of the Winter Olympics,” […]
The CIA essentially sets its own rules over what data it collects, and politicians know it. Here’s how it is allowed to do so. Senators’ demands for more transparency on the CIA’s activities obscure the fact that is essentially allowed to set its own rules. The recent efforts by two US Senators to get more […]
An Associated Press poll has found that just 26 percent of Americans believe their country should be playing a major role in the conflict between Ukraine and Russia. Jennifer Rau, a 51-year-old mother of three adopted teenagers who lives on Chicago’s South Side, said she listens to local public radio for her world news. But in […]
Former Trump Chief Strategist Steve Bannon was back in The War Room today following time off for his a family emergency. Steve was in rare form — explaining to the War Room audience what the future looks like for Americans after the Democrats and DC elites pushed Russia and China into each others arms. This comes after […]
Hate crimes against Asian Americans mushroomed over the past two years. According to the Guardian, they jumped 567 percent in San Francisco since 2021, and you don’t have to look far to find out why. The main reason is, quite simply, incessant China-bashing in the mainstream media. This propaganda campaign was kicked off by Trump […]
For all the talk our commitment to Ukraine, hitting the panic button and needlessly pulling officials out doesn’t inspire confidence. How they must be laughing in the Kremlin. Western policy towards Ukraine is evolving from the ridiculous to the positively surreal. Thus the latest demonstration of the West’s unbreakable commitment to Ukraine and to future […]
Recent pro-Bitcoin developments from Russia could put the Eastern power in a lead position as inflation grows. How will other powers react? On February 15, the Russian Ministry of Economic Development signaled a bullish development around Bitcoin; reduced costs for bitcoin miners. But what can we make of this? First the obvious: yes it is […]
Leonid Savin Cuban poet, philosopher, politician and revolutionary José Julián Martí Pérez in Cuba is a national hero who gave his life for the liberation of his homeland. In literary circles, he is considered one of the founders of modernism. In Russia, he is known mainly in Latin Americanist circles, and perhaps among those who are […]
It’s significant that two top Russian diplomats not only reminded the world that India resists US pressure, but also seemingly timed their arguably coordinated statements to coincide with the Quad’s fourth Foreign Ministers’ meeting. This signals to the world that Russia has full trust in India’s sovereign right to calibrate its multi-alignment policy in whatever […]
Protesters in Minneapolis on Friday called for harsher punishment for former Minnesota police officer Kim Potter, who was sentenced to two years behind bars in the shooting death of Duante Wright, and while the demonstrations were peaceful, police confirmed several looting incidents later in the day and looters in the area.

No one wants Ukrainistan, least of all Vladimir Putin. Latest factor: A smoking gun document supports Germans who differ with Washington on NATO membership expansion Its GDP of $98 billion (in constant 2015 US dollars), down 43% since 1989, falls in between Ethiopia and Angola on the World Bank tables. Its population has shrunk to just 35 million according […]
The information dropped like a Hellfire in the middle of a productive discussion with a group of top analysts in Istanbul: Across the Turkish establishment – from politicians to the military – over 90 percent are pro-NATO. Eurasian ‘hopefuls’ in West Asia need to factor in this hard truth about Turkey’s oft-confusing foreign policies. The […]

Officials in the breakaway Ukrainian region of Donetsk have called on Moscow to send urgent help amid a worsening standoff across the contact line, with Kiev’s troops and those loyal to […]
Marshall McLuhan’s prophecy that “the successor to politics will be propaganda” has happened. Raw propaganda is now the rule in Western democracies, especially the US and Britain On matters of war and peace, ministerial deceit is reported as news. Inconvenient facts are censored, demons are nurtured. The model is corporate spin, the currency of the age. In […]
Russia’s decision to recognize the independence of two cities in Ukraine and send troops over the border has triggered a slew of sanctions from the West. These sanctions include the suspension of the certification of Nord Stream 2 and the freezing of assets associated with some banks and wealthy individuals. The reason this first round […]
The Third Reich never really ended. Although Hitler himself was destroyed, the Nazi regime of the 1920s / 30s / 40s simply went underground and morphed into a global movement of infiltration and influence that’s now emerging as “globalism.” The World Economic Forum is the training ground for modern-day Nazis, who include national leaders Macron […]
The transfer comes just a month after intense clashes broke out between ISIS fighters and the SDF during which over 500 people were killed. According to Arabic media reports on 21 February, US troops illegally stationed in northeast Syria are working to transfer large groups of ISIS prisoners from Deir Ezzor governorate to prisons in […]
Costantino Ceoldo Roberto Giacomelli is back and delights us with another of his small but intriguing pamphlets, this time on that caricature of a human being that passes under the name of radical chic [1]. Giacomelli talks to us about the bored bourgeois who pretends to teach others how to live, but unloads on them […]
Alexander Dugin Until a few years ago, Africa was at a standstill. After the first wave of decolonization in the 1960s, the new African regimes experimented with all the political ideologies of the so-called “modern” era. This process has led to the emergence of liberal, nationalist, communist or socialist societies in postcolonial countries. Unfortunately, the […]
Neoconservatism (advocacy of control over the entire planet by America’s Government — i.e., of a universal American empire or “hegemony”) was first stated in 1877, by the British empire’s colonialist Cecil Rhodes (founder of Rhodesia and of South Africa as British colonies) when he wrote the first draft of his will that ultimately produced the Rhodes Trust […]
Little is yet known about why Russian President Vladimir Putin initiated the special military operation in Ukraine when he did, and it seems that many pundits are also yet reluctant to risk their reputations by speculating about the potential objectives of a political leader who is viewed by many as one of the most cunning and […]
The Biden administration altered the official federal policy on approving new interstate natural gas facilities and pipelines, requiring a climate consideration. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) announced that it will begin to “undertake a robust consideration” of the environmental justice impacts of such fossil fuel projects before granting approval, according to a fact sheet published […]
Durham’s Revelations: Destruction of the National Security State—or Just Hillary Clinton? Some see in Special Prosecutor John Durham’s February 11th filing in the case of former Perkins Coie lawyer Michael Sussman, the beginnings of a case which will take down the “seditious criminal enterprise”—inclusive of U.S. intelligence community and Obama White House actors, and private […]
It’s long past time for conservative folks to wake up. Today’s great threat to capitalist prosperity, personal liberty and constitutional government as we have known it is not Marxism, socialism or any other variant of traditional left-wing ideology. The real threat to liberty is more generic. Rather than a specific history-rooted ideology, such as the […]
Amnesty International was listed as a client of a professional propagandist for Syrian terror groups backed by the UK and US governments – the same militias once condemned by Amnesty. This December, The Grayzone exposed how a shadowy communications firm, Valent Projects, enlisted a prominent YouTube influencer to front a covert state-sponsored influence operation designed […]
Coronavirus case counts fell 17 percent worldwide over the last week compared to the previous corresponding period, including a 50 percent drop in the United States alone, while deaths globally declined seven percent, the World Health Organization (W.H.O.) announced Tuesday. The weekly epidemiological report from the U.N. health agency outlines the omicron variant is increasingly dominant […]
Alexander Dugin Current political ideologies emerged under the protection of Modernity and ended up crystallizing during the 19th and 20th centuries in the heat of wars. The first political ideology that emerged was liberalism, which was nothing more than a reflection of the values and laws created by bourgeois society. During the 20th century liberalism, communism and […]
“It’s not a beginning of war, it is prevention of a situation that could lead to global military confrontation. It is also the end of the war that was being carried out [in Donbass]”, Maria Zakharova, spokeswoman for the Russian Foreign Ministry, said in an interview, as she addressed the special operation in Ukraine authorised […]
Recently, ECB President Christine Lagarde shocked markets with surprisingly hawkish talk at her monetary policy press conference. Lagarde didn’t make any sudden moves in policy or anything. The ECB has yet to end any of its bond-buying and internal debt-transfer alphabet soup projects, and won’t until Q3 at the earliest. Markets were not prepared by […]
I want you to think about a few things… First, based on everything we know, Ukraine is the most corrupt country on the planet. Second, think about Hunter Biden’s laptop. It offered proof that Joe Biden is perhaps the most corrupt traitor in U.S. political history. Biden is the “Big Guy” who gets a piece […]
The War in Yemen needs to end immediately, this is an unjust war that is creating a huge human catastrophe. The only way to accomplish this is to end all military aid and sales that would support the war in Yemen by the UAE/Saudi Coalition. This includes military support as well. I’ve previously written concerning […]
With so much news about Ukraine, inflation, massive government spending and exploding deficits, it’s easy to overlook the ongoing war on cash. That’s a mistake because it has serious implications not only for your money, but for your privacy and personal freedom, as you’ll see today. The war on cash is a global effort being […]
Feb. 4, 2022 may very well be remembered in history textbooks as an important date in the shift of global politics. That day was not only the inauguration of the XXIV Olympic Winter Games in Beijing; it also saw a historic meeting between the presidents of China and Russia. Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin signed […]
As noted earlier, over the past centuries, there have been various assessments of changes in fertility and their impact on the state structure and social processes. Nevertheless, it has always been recognized that the demographic situation of a country is invariably a key indicator of its development. Therefore, the solution of the most important social […]

Western media leads us into war in Ukraine with Russia, but don’t worry, Biden’s got the autocue working now. “We’re heading for a war in Ukraine not because of Putin but because of western media provoking […]
What is important in this report by the Bangkok Post is that the Royal Thai Government (member state of the UN and the WHO) firmly acknowledges the deaths and adverse events affecting Thais who have taken the vaccine jab. “Out of the 11,707 people who filed a claim with the authorities, 8,470 people, or 72.3% of all claimants, have been compensated”.

Only one in eight respondents support deploying US combat units to Ukraine if Russia invades. Just 13% of Americans believe it’s a “good idea” to send US troops to Ukraine “to fight Russians”, a new poll shows. Americans may know little about Ukraine and even less about its leadership, but one thing is certain: they […]
While the Biden administration is sending more troops and weapons to inflame the Ukraine conflict and Congress is pouring more fuel on the fire, the American people are on a totally different track. A December 2021 poll found that a plurality of Americans in both political parties prefer to resolve differences over Ukraine through diplomacy. Another December poll found […]
How can we figure out exactly what is going on in Ukraine when literally everybody is lying? Anyone that willingly embraces the propaganda that is being put out by either side without questioning it is simply not being rational. At a time like this, we must think for ourselves and we must come to our […]
The freedoms of speech and press do indeed exist in Russia as proven by the fact that redfish can seemingly contradict the Kremlin’s policy of unwaveringly supporting India on Kashmir just like RT can do the same with China when it comes to going far beyond all manner of ‘political correctness’ in some of their […]
We must do everything possible to find a diplomatic resolution to prevent what would be an enormously destructive war in Ukraine, urges the democrats’ Senator and former presidential candidate Bernie Sanders. The following are the remarks, as prepared for delivery, by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) on the floor of the U.S. Senate on Thursday, February 10, […]
A court decision that could deprive Hungary and Poland of access to EU Covid funds sets a very dangerous precedent. The European Court of Justice’s decision that Covid funds can be withheld from Hungary and Poland hands too much power to EU officials Poland and Hungary are now well and truly at the mercy of […]
Bank Run? Canada’s Top Banks Mysteriously Go Offline. Currently, something is going on with the banks in Canada – what is it? Some people that donated money to Freedom Convoy reported they cant access their bank accounts online. Earlier this week that the government in Canada announced that they will be taking the assets of individuals […]
Indonesia is the largest country in South East Asia (SEA), with a population of over 270 million. It is one of the leading states in the region, with considerable weight within ASEAN, and the world powers vying for influence in South East Asia are forced to pay a great deal of attention to Indonesia. The […]
Post-Iraq the US has zero moral authority. The narrative managers aim to suck you in to arguing about the minutiae of the inner workings of the latest target of the empire, when in fact a simple “Shut the fuck up, it’s none of your business” is all they deserve. ❖ What the US and its […]
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has denounced participants in Canada’s Freedom Convoy as a racist “swastika-waving” “fringe minority” of people who have “unacceptable views.” And as the movement inspires truckers abroad and shuts down traffic at the U.S. border, American media is sounding the alarm, describing the protests against COVID-19 vaccine mandates as “sedition,” “insurrection” and […]
The fact that Russia is in favor of a peaceful solution certainly does not mean that Russia will allow ethnic cleansing of the innocent Russian people in Donbass. The Russian-Ukrainian crisis is not calming down. The first refugees from Donbass began to arrive in Russia following an evacuation order made by the self-proclaimed People’s Republics […]
US ambassadors give orders in Berlin, backed by American boots on the ground, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman says. Pressure over Russian gas shows Germany is still under US occupation, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova has said. The US continues to “occupy” Germany by any scientific standard, while America’s NATO allies have surrendered all their […]
Ponder what a clawback of the $50 trillion might entail, and the immense benefits of returning to producing quality goods and services by completely unwinding financialization and globalization. The happy story that’s been ceaselessly promoted for 45 years is that financialization and globalization have been wunnerful for all of us, boosting wealth and saving a […]
Below is my column in the Hill on frenzy of gerrymandering in various states and the selective condemnation of President Joe Biden of such practices in North Carolina. While denouncing gerrymandering Republicans for gerrymandering as attack on democracy, Democratic figures like lawyer Marc Elias are under attack for raising millions to support democratic gerrymandering. Elias previously declared “Republicans gerrymander like this […]
In a long overdue decision, Russian President Putin after consulting with the National Security Council officially recognized the two breakaway republics of Ukraine, Donetsk and Luhansk. Subsequently, the Russian parliament unanimously approved the decision and authorized deployment of Russian peace-keeping forces in the Donbass region. Putin could have recognized the sovereignty of the breakaway republics as soon […]
GoFundMe has halted a multi-million dollar fundraiser to support truckers protesting Covid mandates in Canada. The fundraising platform said the ‘Freedom Convoy 2022’ campaign is now under review. Crowdfunding site GoFundMe has placed a pause on a campaign to support truckers protesting cross-border vaccine mandates in Canada and the US, stopping the initiative for “review” […]
“We want to remind you that Russia has never attacked anyone throughout its history.” Dmitri Peskov, Kremlin spokesman “NATO leaders are now engaged in the most blatant and irresponsible destabilisation and hybrid war operation since they used Islamic terrorists to destroy Libya and attempted to use them to break up Syria.” Nick Griffin, political analyst and former […]

Hectic in-person parleys of Quad foreign ministers – of the US, Japan, Australia and India – in Melbourne on Friday are juxtaposed by the triangular three-day deliberations of special representatives on the denuclearization of North Korean – from the US, Japan and South Korea – in Honolulu. While the former has a whole range of […]
Kiev’s continued shelling of those newly independent republics as part of its ongoing genocide against their indigenous Russian people and its occupation of their territory that the Kremlin officially recognizes as falling within their sovereign borders could very likely provoke Moscow to militarily respond in self-defense. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky predicted on the day after Russia’s recognition of the […]
We have been utter fools. We have treated Russia with amazing stupidity. Now we pay the price for that. We had the chance to make her an ally, friend and partner. Instead we turned her into an enemy by insulting a great and proud country with greed, unearned superiority, cynicism, contempt and mistrust. I have to endure, […]
The psychological, geopolitical, and economic dimensions of the US-led “deterrence” strategy against Russia (as their policymakers falsely describe it) were all faulty and meant that there was too much left to chance by encouraging Kiev to provoke a third round of civil war hostilities in Donbass or ordering the mercenaries under their control to do […]
Joe Biden told the American people, on 15 February 2022, “The United States and NATO are not a threat to Russia. … To the citizens of Russia: You are not our enemy.” He expected Americans and Russians to believe that America’s anti-Russian military alliance (NATO) wasn’t hostile to Russia, wasn’t against it, didn’t consider it to be […]
Central banks are riding to the rescue on those miniature ponies that come up to your waist Central banks will deliver us, right? Because controlling inflation is their main job, right? Except this cavalry is riding to the rescue on those miniature ponies that come up to your waist. The Fed’s lending rate is still […]
American ‘perception managers’ propagate false narratives about Russian-Pakistani relations in an attempt to drive a wedge between Russia and India while also presenting Pakistan as a liability to US interests. Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan’s upcoming visit to Moscow later this month prompted speculation among some that those two countries are driven by shared opposition […]
On 18 February, Amnesty International revealed that the cellphones and personal computers of three Bahraini human rights activist were infected with the infamous Pegasus spyware developed by the Israeli firm NSO Group.

Russia’s goal is not to destroy Ukraine—this could be accomplished at any time. Rather, the goal of Russia is to destroy NATO by exposing its impotence, writes Scott Ritter. In the quiet fields outside the sleepy college town of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, sits a bronze monument, in the form of an open book. Known as the […]
With all attention on the war in Ukraine, Libyan oil is once again coming under threat as the prospect of a renewed civil war intensifies amid the amassing of militia forces at the gates of the western capital of Tripoli. Libya now has two rival prime ministers, Abdul Dbeibah, the incumbent in Tripoli, and Fathi […]
The relations between Ankara and Washington have for many years now been characterized as a “fragile equilibrium.” Back when Erdogan just came to power, the US supported his Justice and Development Party, which, however, over time stopped being an American project and gained independence. Barack Obama, for instance, hoped that Turkey would become an […]
Twitter has announced policies promising the censorship of “misleading?” posts relating to the conflict between Russia and the West and their Western-installed warmongering proxy puppets in the Ukraine. Any post that (mis)leads to a quicker and less bloody end of the Western-initiated war and quick defeat of Nazis in Ukraine will be (shadow)banned. The war […]
The latest chapter of the post-Cold War crisis between Russia and the West has, if nothing else, shone a spotlight on the hollowness of American diplomacy. We are a long way from the days when the US was ably represented on the world stage by the likes of Chas Freeman, Charles “Chip” Bohlen, Llewellyn Thompson […]
Average folks in many Western countries are increasingly rising up against what they sincerely regard as anti-scientific mandates being imposed upon the population for political reasons related to unprecedentedly strengthening the state’s power over its citizenry in violation of their constitutionally enshrined rights. Jacinda Adern, the Prime Minister of New Zealand, maligned her country’s anti-mandate protests as […]
While the United States is a global leader economically and militarily, its president has no such cachet. Joe Biden and his administration have bumbled and fumbled and are perceived worldwide as feckless and indecisive. No longer the undisputed champion of democratic principles and individual freedoms, the current occupant of the Oval Office has shown himself to be […]
Fifty years after Nixon’s trip to Beijing, China grows stronger than the Soviet Union ever was. Mao Zedong arrived in Moscow in 1949 expecting to be feted for delivering China, the world’s most populous country, to Communism. Instead, Joseph Stalin humiliated him by making him wait for a meeting. Although Stalin and Mao eventually signed a Treaty of Friendship, Mao […]
The famous short story by Edgar Allen Poe, The Purloined Letter, is apt in describing the agenda of Klaus Schwab, founder some 50 years ago of what is today the globally influential Davos World Economic Forum (WEF)–Hidden in plain sight. Schwab published a book in 2020 titled The Great Reset, which calls on world leaders […]
“Oh the gift that God could give us, to see ourselves as others see us.” -Robert Burns This famous quote by the great Scottish poet Robert Burns stands as one of the clearest reminders of a precondition for any matured identity. Burns understood that without having learned to use our God-given ability to place ourselves […]
“The next few days will be decisive and will require intensive discussions which we will pursue together,” France’s Emmanuel Macron told reporters after a lengthy Monday summit with Putin in Moscow focused on the Ukraine standoff.

Amid rising tensions between Russia, Ukraine and the West, Russia’s oil and gas exports rebounded sharply in 2021. According to the Bank of Russia, crude oil exports climbed to $32 billion in the fourth quarter of 2021, the highest level since 2014. As a result of surging energy prices, Statista’s Felix Richter notes that the […]
Three weeks into the Ukraine war, all of the sides involved are taking ever greater risks. The hitherto unthinkable, a nuclear exchange in Europe, is being openly considered and built up as a threat. Voices of caution, restraint and appeals to reason have largely fallen silent. Despite the looming catastrophe, NATO is not prepared to compromise. […]
Supply shortages… That’s what is fueling the market right now. Oil companies are making out like bandits… Natural gas prices are skyrocketing… And commodities like lithium, cobalt, and aluminum have soared to new heights. But it’s not all sunshine and roses for some industries. The auto industry has seen its production plummet due to the global semiconductor shortage…And […]
Canada’s prime minister won a skirmish but lost his credibility, which means that he has also lost legitimacy and will lose the war. As the philosopher Bertie Wooster was wont to observe, “it’s always just when a fellow is feeling particularly braced with things in general that Fate sneaks up behind him with a bit […]
Russian President Vladimir Putin has called Israel a “Russian-speaking state,” saying the two countries share a common history and extensive family ties. Israel is home to the world’s largest population of Russian-speaking Jews, with ethnic Russian Jews as well as Jews from former Soviet countries making up some 17% of the country’s population. The community, which has […]
It takes a history of pathology for a person to develop into someone who thinks he is so much better than everyone else that he is entitled to tell them how to live–or whether they should be allowed to live at all. Issues of character as deep as those rarely change, but they do fester. […]
One day last spring, Palestinians in Israel and the occupied West Bank declared a general strike to protest years of repression they faced under Israeli rule. U.S. foreign policy everywhere should be based on human rights, international law, and equality for all—including when it comes to Israel. The nonviolent strike came as Israel attempted to evict […]
An AP reporter does his job and pushes back on “intelligence” behind a reported Russian propaganda film. Bravo. (Ned Price is a spokesman for the United States Department of State since 2021 and a “former intelligence officer” working at the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) from 2006 until 2017. On February 20, 2017, Price published an op-ed piece in The […]

“So-called ‘immigration reform’ is all about profits,” says Michael Lind, a professor at the University of Texas at Austin. The Yale-educated author wrote: Do low-wage immigrants—regardless of whether they are legal or illegal—actually suppress wages and/or take away jobs? This brings us to what I think of as the borscht belt theory of immigration. The best-known joke […]
To rule the world, make it rely on a single dominant financial system you control so anyone who disobeys you can be cut off from the economy you’ve made them dependent on for survival—whether they’re a nation, a protest movement, or an individual—without having to fire a shot. ❖ I don’t “support dictators”, as one […]
