Fighting US Inflation Really Means Fighting The US Federal Reserve – George Ford Smith
There are surely other worlds than this—other thoughts than the thoughts of the multitude—other speculations than the speculations of the sophist. —Edgar Allan Poe, “The Assignation” Nothing brings out misleading or false narratives like the subject of money.

From WWI To The Ukraine Conflict, War Propaganda Evolves, But Never Changes – Matthieu Buge

Welcome To The Era Of Warring Elites – Charles Hugh Smith
What the Warring Elites don’t want us to realize is that a system of transparent competition in which no fiefdom is allowed to become dominant best serves the interests of society at large. I’ve been writing about Warring Elites for a long time (since 2007). As I have often noted, historian Michael Grant identified profound political disunity in the […]
Russia-China-Islam: The New Superpower? – Kevin Barrett
In 1993, American political scientist Samuel Huntington famously predicted that future wars would be between civilizations, not nations.

Meet Taiwan’s “Unofficial Foreign Ministry”, A US-based Group Pushing Hard For Its Independence – Bradley Blankenship
This organization has made deep inroads in the Congress, seeking to push its agenda and upend Washington-Beijing relations US lawmakers’ support for Taiwan’s bid to become independent from mainland China would be non-existent without powerful lobbying and influence groups.

U.S. Routinely Violates International Law, With Impunity — And Seeks To Replace U.N. – Eric Zuesse
The U.S. Government, and its allies, frequently advocate for “a rules-based international order” (or, going even farther, they presume that “the rules-based international order” already exists) and they always avoid stating what its relationship would be (or supposedly is) to international law — the body of international laws that have been established under the authority of the United Nations […]

The Battle Of Stalingrad 1942-1943: Historical Importance For Today’s Freedom Of France And Other Nazi-Occupied Nations – Dr. Jacques R. Pauwels
A war against the Soviet Union was wanted by the industrialists, bankers, large landowners and other members of Germany’s upper class, the “elite” of the land.

How A Network Of Nazi Propagandists Helped Lay The Groundwork For The War In The Ukraine – Evan Reif
“History isn’t what happened, but the stories of what happened and the lessons these stories include.

The Current Crisis Is Less A Matter Of False Ideology Than Abnormal Psychology (On A Mass Scale) – Jung-Freud
In the current socio-political climate, it may well be that ideology is secondary to psychology, much of it abnormal.

The War In Ukraine To Maintain The European Union Under Tutelage – Thierry Meyssan
It has been almost a year since the Russian army entered Ukraine to implement Security Council Resolution 2202. NATO, rejecting this reason, considers that Russia invaded Ukraine to annex it.

Banana Republic, Here We Come – Michael Goodwin
My first thought when I saw the news flash that Donald Trump had been indicted was “Banana republic, here we come.” After seeing the instant jubilation on the left, including in the media, my second thought was, “Banana republic, here we are.” It’s a cliché to say we’ve crossed the Rubicon, but that doesn’t make it less […]

Nazi Roots Of EU’s Führer Ursula Von Der Leyen – Finian Cunningham
Ursula von der Leyen, the European Commission president, has some disturbing skeletons in her family wardrobe.

Mass Psychosis: When Will We Free Ourselves From Toxic Propaganda, If Not Now? – Mark Taliano
If mass psychosis entails a detachment from reality, then Westerners in particular are suffering from mass-psychosis on myriad issues. Now more than ever.

Acceptable political dissent remains framed, for […]
New Zealand’s Modern-Day Dystopia. The Imposition Of Medical Tyranny – Timothy Alexander Guzman
There is an interesting correlation in New Zealand between banning Semi-Automatic Weapons, its Covid-19 lockdowns and now censorship of a popular news magazine called ‘New Dawn’ which seems like old times.

The Global South Rising (Up) – Natasha Wright
Davos annual meeting comes across as rather outdated and obsolete with its now heavily tarnished global image all the more so.

The Pentagon’s B-Movie: Looking Closely At The September 2001 Attacks – Edward Curtin

Descent Into Public Health Totalitarianism – David Stockman
The unspeakable stain of the Covid tyranny requires the very opposite of the “pandemic amnesty” that the craven poltroons at the Atlantic magazine suggested recently.

Deliberately Engineered Confusion: The Hallmark Of The Greatest Biopsychosocial Operation In History – Dr. Emanuel Garcia
Years ago, when I sat on the Board of the American Psychiatric Association as a psychiatrist-in-training, the word ‘biopsychosocial’ was used frequently to describe the range to which the profession of psychiatry aspired in its categorization of and treatment approaches to mental illness.

A recent talk in Paris by Israeli Minister of Finance Bezalel Smotrich raised eyebrows when he claimed that there are no Palestinian people.

The Banned FOX News Report On Israel’s Role In 9/11 – Spencer J. Quinn
If the fraudulent 2020 elections have taught us anything, it’s that if you want to find what a country’s elites are most threatened by, look for what they are trying to suppress.

December 10, as is well known, is observed around the world as Human Rights Day, designated as such by the UN.

Syrians Have Every Right To Attack U.S. Occupiers
The western world is solemnly commemorating the 20th anniversary of the Iraq invasion by blindly following the US into more conflict and militarism while repeating all the same kinds of mass media malpractice. ❖ If you think it’s a coincidence that the western world suddenly got super–duper interested in China’s human rights record right when China began […]

US Paranoid About Russia-China Summit – M. K. Bhadrakumar
The arrest warrant issued by the International Criminal Court against Vladimir Putin can only be seen as a publicity stunt by the Anglo-Saxon clique, with the US leading from the rear.

Does America Have A Future? – Paul Craig Roberts

The Iraq War 20 Years Ago – No Shame. No Lessons Learned. No Arrest Order On NATO State Leaders – Jan Oberg
Writing this, I must admit that my rage and pain build up inside, still twenty years later.

Like other wars and interventions, this […]

Biden’s Top Secret Document Problem — Is He On His Way Out? – Larry Johnson
The “discovery” that Joe Biden had multiple stashes of highly classified documents begs a few salient questions that nobody, to the best of my knowledge, has answered — When were they discovered?

The US Discredits Its Own Sanctions By Buying Refined Russian Oil Products Via India – Andrew Korybko
The takeaway is that the resource aspect of the US’ anti-Russian sanctions is a charade since the very same country that unilaterally imposed these restrictions is defying their spirit upon exploiting a legal loophole to purchase refined Russian oil products from India. Popular Indian media outlet TheWire reported on an article over the weekend from Telegraph India alleging that […]
“It’s Time For The Scientific Community To Admit We Were Wrong About COVID & It Cost Lives”
Real “mea culpa”, ongoing and rapid revision of history, or further narrative management with regard ‘amnesty’ over what “the others” did to those who thought for themselves over the last few years… You decide… In no less a liberal rag than Newsweek, Kevin Bass (MS MD/PHD Student, Medical School) has penned a quite surprising (and ‘brave’) op-ed saying […]
Why Fractional Reserve Banking Is Behind Bank Failures – Jonathan Newman
Drug addicts suffer major withdrawal symptoms when they go cold turkey. In the case of high-tech startups and their banks (like Silicon Valley Bank), the super-low-interest-rate stimulant has been taken away by the drug dealer (the Fed) via interest rate hikes.

From Imperial Failures To Imperial Excuses – The Saker
The decline of Rome was the natural and inevitable effect of immoderate greatness.

History of the Decline and Fall of […]

The Gas Crisis Has Already Begun To Change The Balance Of Power In Europe – Vladimir Danilov
While European officials and individual members of the European political elite try, to the detriment of ordinary Europeans, to develop a mechanism that would allow EU members to block even Russian liquefied natural gas (LNG) supplies without imposing additional sanctions, Europe’s deepening gas and economic crisis has already begun to shift the balance of power.

Russia Consolidates In East Mediterranean – M. K. Bhadrakumar

Why Won’t Russia Offer Sweden & Finland A Deal To Not Join NATO? – Eric Zuesse
Sweden and Finland have jointly and together been seeking membership in NATO, but Turkiye is blocking Sweden’s bid unless and until Sweden will comply with Turkiye’s own national-security demands.

The Collective West Vs. Traditional Values – Davor Slobodanovich Vuyachich
In the West, there is almost nothing left of the classic division of political parties and movements into left-wing and right-wing ones. If we were to judge the political life of the countries of the collective West solely on the basis of the concrete activities of political parties that alternate for decades on the stage […]
Using Ukraine As A Bloodied Pawn – Ted Galen Carpenter
U.S. and NATO officials routinely contend that assisting Ukraine in its war against Russia is a moral as well as a strategic imperative. Ukraine is supposedly on the frontlines of a global struggle between democracy and freedom on one side and brutal authoritarianism on the other. That justification lacks credibility for two reasons. First, Ukraine […]

How The World’s Nazi Movement Relocated From Berlin To Washington – Eric Zuesse
Nazism is a form of imperialism. In my decades-long study of billionaires and of imperialism, I’ve never yet come across a billionaire anywhere who has been anti-imperialist. Some are conservative, and some are liberal, but all of them have been pro-imperialist. Britain’s Guardian newspaper, which used to be progressive (something that no billionaire actually is), got taken over […]
The Cancellation Of A Civilization – Paul Craig Roberts
Few Americans understand that their society has been revolutionized. America is no longer what it was. Wherever you look everything has been overthrown.

U.S. & ‘Allies’ Are Terminally Corrupt – Eric Zuesse
It is “terminal” because the controlling power, the U.S. regime, now spends approximately half of the entire world’s military costs and hides much of that by paying it out from federal Departments other than the official ‘Defense’ Department so as to (in comparison with other nations’ military expenditures) be spending ‘only’ around 37% of the entire […]
The Fall Of SVB Has Exposed The Delusions Of Our Elites – Fraser Myers
The new capitalists were supposed to be different. Unlike those corrupt titans of Wall Street or the money-grubbing oil men, the 21st-century tech gurus were meant to be a more ‘enlightened’ class of entrepreneur. They were going to transform our world, with their dazzling technology and their superior social values. Last week’s collapse of the […]
Prime Minister Fumio Kushida: Japan Needs Russian Energy

Innocence Doesn’t Matter When The US Government Wants To Steal Your Money – Joe Setyon
There’s a fault line permeating America’s criminal justice system—a built-in defect that the government can use to steal your property, even if you’re innocent. And many Americans don’t even know about it. Hardworking sisters Vera and Apollonia Ward didn’t either, until it happened to them. A California county government used a civil asset forfeiture law […]

Yes, Virginia, There Is A Deep State – And It Is Worse Than You Think – William L. Anderson
Mention the term “deep state” in polite company and most likely no one will want to speak to you the rest of the evening. The deep state is what Wikipedia calls “discredited,” something reeking of conspiracies, false accusations, and the substitution of fantasy for the truth. After the FBI raided Donald Trump’s home in Florida, […]
Ukraine Is Sinking. Are Western Elites Bailing Out? – Mike Whitney
What makes the RAND Corporation’s latest report on Ukraine so significant, is not the quality of the analysis, but the fact that the nation’s most prestigious national security think-tank has taken an opposite position on the war than the Washington political class and their globalist allies. This is a very big deal. Keep in mind, wars don’t end […]
The Taiwan Leader’s American Visit Will Only Invite Chaos To Her Island – Bradley Blankenship

What Is The US “Gas Stove Ban” Really About? – Kit Knightly
What sounds like overeach in itself, is actually a cover for something potentially far, far worse. The Biden administration is apparently looking to ban gas stoves, calling them a “hidden danger”. But while that sounds bad enough, a deeper dive shows – as usual – it’s not really about what they say it’s about. Talk […]
Colossal Financial Pyramid: BlackRock And The WEF “Great Reset” – F. William Engdahl
A virtually unregulated investment firm today exercises more political and financial influence than the Federal Reserve and most governments on this planet.

When Federal Interest Payments Come To Exceed The Military Budget: Time To Stop Defending The Rest Of The World – Doug Bandow
A new year dawns bright, with the US hurtling over the fiscal cliff. The lame duck Congress voted for a pork-packed $1.7 trillion budget bill. As the saying goes, it’s only money!

The End Of Monetary Hedonism – Jeff Deist
Does cheap money and credit make us richer? Does more money and credit create more stuff, or better stuff? Do they make us happier and more productive? Or do these twin forces actually distort the economy, misallocate resources, and degrade us as people? These are fundamental questions in an age of monetary hedonism. It is […]
Ukraine Proves We Learned Nothing From The Vietnam War – James W. Carden
Days ago marked 50 years since the signing of the Paris Peace Accords which effectively ended American participation in the Vietnam war.

Introduction The scale and complexity of the 2020-2023 Global Economic and Social Crisis far surpasses all previous “depressions” including the 2007-2009 Recession which was categorized as the most serious economic meltdown since the Great Depression of 1929.

Vietnam Sees A Shared Future With China – M. K. Bhadrakumar
The resignation of Vietnam’s President Nguyen Xuan Phuc a fortnight ago had an inevitability about it.

Normalizing Servitude – T.L. Davis
For all of the speculation about Brunson v Adams, we knew the Supreme Court would never take the case. Didn’t we? There is no end to the humiliation and degradation of those who believe we still live in a constitutional republic. We do not. The sooner folks understand that the United States of America of […]
Venezuela Envisages CELAC Playing A Key Role In The Multipolar World Order – Andrew Korybko
Expectations should be tempered with respect to what CELAC will achieve in the coming future, but nobody should think that it won’t achieve anything at all either.

America’s Strategy Of Failure Comes To Ukraine – Brandon Weichert
US mission creep in Ukraine follows in the fatal footsteps of ultimately failed war campaigns in Afghanistan and Iraq. Estimates have put Ukrainian casualties at over 100,000.

Betting All On Hegemony; Risking All, To Stave Off Ruin – Alastair Crooke
The West is too dysfunctional and weak now to fight on all fronts. Yet there can be no retreat without some de-legitimising humiliation of the West. Just occasionally, a window is opened onto the truth of how the ‘system’ works. Momentarily, it stands naked in its degeneracy. We avert our eyes, yet, it is a […]
What Level Of Tyranny Will You Accept? – Madame DeFarge
The concept of democracy revolves around self reliance. How much responsibility will you give away or allow to be taken before you resist? The ruling class feels that you will not react to this loss and that independence is an abomination unless they get their cut. This leaves a tiny minority to resist in the […]
Macron’s Cancelling Of Democracy – Philippe Marlière
After imposing an unpopular pension reform, Emmanuel Macron is in serious trouble. Governments make occasional faux-pas and get into trouble.

Why should raising the retirement age from 62 to […]
Anti-War Views Criminalized In Germany – Diana Johnstone
Divide and rule is the eternal law of Empire. Above all, don’t let other big guys get together. Keep them at each other’s throats.

Can America’s Leaders Find An Accommodation With Russia? – Larry Johnson
I am afraid the answer is a resounding, “No!” I hope and pray that I am wrong on this point, but I see no evidence that such a shift in opinion towards Putin and all things Russian is in the offing. The United States and Soviet troops shook hands over the waters of the Elbe […]
