By Joachim Hagopian On Tuesday the 31st of August 2022, news out of Russia reported that the first and only president of the Soviet Union, Mikhail Gorbachev, died at the age of 91. As the last Soviet leader, he was responsible for transitioning forward the Soviet Empire breakup to establish the Russian Federation, credited with graciously handling this difficult process known as “perestroika.” As a world stateman, President Mikhail Gorbachev achieved a number of major international accomplishments by virtually anyone’s standards. It was Gorbachev who ended the Cold War and normalized relations…

Joachim Hagopian, The Russia-Israel Alliance Is Cracking Amidst the Ever-Shifting Geopolitics Chessboard
Joachim Hagopian On May 13th, 2022 for the first time, Russia used its S-300 air defense system against Israel, firing at Israeli jets after an air strike in northwestern Syria. In 2015 Putin had come to the defense of Syrian ally President Assad, requesting Russian military assistance against US-Turkey-Saudi backed ISIS terrorists, successfully securing Assad from yet another illegal US coup insurgency. Recall that Syria was among the targeted nations per the infamous Bush-Cheney-neocon takedown list of 7 nations in 5 years, disclosed by General Wesley Clark. But with Libya, Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Lebanon, Sudan, Yemen and…
Alasdair Macleod, The Era of a Financialized Fiat-Dollar Standard is Ending
Alasdair Macleod In recent articles I have argued that the era of a financialised fiat dollar standard is ending. This article takes my hypothesis further and explains that it is not just the emergence of new commodity backed currencies in Asia that will threaten the dominance of Western currencies, but the Fed’s failing monetary policies and those of the other major central banks. An unstoppable rise in interest rates will in large part be responsible for their demise. Financial markets in thrall to the state underestimate the forces collapsing the…
Caitlin Johnstone: US officials admit they’re literally just lying to the public about Russia
Caitlin Johnstone From spreading no-evidence claims to outright lying, all is fair to ‘get inside Putin’s head’, apparently NBC News has a new report out citing multiple anonymous US officials, humorously titled “In a break with the past, U.S. is using intel to fight an info war with Russia, even when the intel isn’t rock solid.” The officials say the Biden administration has been rapidly pushing out “intelligence” about Russia’s plans in Ukraine that is “low-confidence” or “based more on analysis than hard evidence”, or even just plain false, in order to fight an information war…
Paul Craig Roberts Saw It Coming: Walking into Armageddon (5 December 2017)
Paul Craig Roberts [Editor’s note: I have long admired Paul Craig Roberts and regard him as our nation’s leading public intellectual. He observed and anticipated the course of events as early as 5 December 2017. We have further confirmation of the motives for demonizing Putin over Ukraine from Investment Watch Blog: And I have no doubt that these observations are more accurate and on the mark than anything you are hearing and seeing from the MSM, not only CNN, NBC, ABC, and CBS but Fox News as well, alas!] Dear…
The Saker, What could happen next if the USA rejects the Russian ultimatum?
The Saker There is a lot of discussions going on about what Russia might do if the West ignores the Russian ultimatum. All I propose to do here is just share a few thoughts with you. This is not an thorough analysis, but only some musings of mine about what I hear. First, Putin is both very predictable and, at the same time, very unpredictable. The predictable thing about Putin is that he only uses force when there is no other option left. The very unpredictable thing about Putin is…

If you want to know a lot more about the no. 1 issue in the world today, read…
WORLD BOMBSHELL: Leaked DARPA document, DRASTIC analysis confirms attack on humanity using aerosolized, skin-penetrating nanoparticle spike proteins
State of the Nation SOTN Editor’s Note: This is by far the most important “Ed Note” ever posted by this Alt Media platform. The New World Order globalist cabal has proven itself to be desperate to the extreme by conducting OPERATION COVID-19. Likewise, the cabal has been exceedingly brazen and reckless in the implementation of the Covid Super Vaccination Agenda. However, it has been self-evident throughout this “Biowar on Humanity” that this is only the beginning of a much longer and cataclysmic war to commit global genocide, carry out significant depopulation of the Earth, and debilitate as…
COUNTER-COUP: Deep state swamp moves against disastrous Biden regime as swamp creatures realize the whole country could burn down if they don’t stop the madness
CRACKNEWS.COM Today’s article and podcast focuses on a theory that says the deep state swamp is now turning against the Biden regime (and its traitorous operators like Gen. Milley) after realizing if they don’t stop the destruction, they will lose all their power, salaries, benefits and kickbacks as the U.S. empire collapses. All of a sudden, people deeply embedded in the Pentagon, the CIA, NSA and even the FBI are coming to the realization that the Biden regime really is working for communist China, and the CCP’s ultimate goal is the complete destruction of…
