Doug Bandow, Trump Must Understand a War With Iran Would Be Hell

James Fetzerblog

by Doug Bandow Key point: The entire Middle East could go up in flames. Sixteen years ago, the George W. Bush administration manipulated intelligence to scare the public into backing an aggressive war against Iraq. The smoking gun mushroom clouds that National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice warned against didn’t exist, but the invasion long desired by neoconservatives and other hawks proceeded. Liberated Iraqis rejected U.S. plans to create an American puppet state on the Euphrates and the aftermath turned into a humanitarian and geopolitical catastrophe which continues to roil the Middle East. Thousands…

Sylvain LaForest, Everything You Need to Know about Trump (but Were Afraid to Admit You Wondered)

James Fetzerblog

Sylvain LaForest The timing is right for everyone to understand what Donald Trump is doing, and try to decrypt the ambiguity of how he is is doing it. The controversial President has a much clearer agenda than anyone can imagine on both foreign policy and internal affairs, but since he has to stay in power or even stay alive to achieve his objectives, his strategy is so refined and subtle that next to no one can see it. His overall objective is so ambitious that he has to follow random…

Andrew Garfield, Could Bloomberg Win with Gabbard & Moderate Republicans Abandoning Trump? YES!

James Fetzerblog

Andrew Garfield with Robert David Steele Andrew Garfield You asked me to answer the question, “Could Bloomberg-Gabbard beat Trump-Pence?”  The answer is a solid YES. Bloomberg needs a solid VP with left leaning credentials to turn out the Democratic Party base, win the primaries, and secure the nomination. A female VP would make the ticket even stronger and more appealing to the far left. Without a VP with the right credentials, Bloomberg risks turning off left leaning voters in the primaries. A Bloomberg Gabbard ticket would also appeal to Independents…

Margaret Kimberly, The Baghdadi Scam

James Fetzerblog

By Margaret Kimberley The Democrats and corporate media don’t really oppose what Donald Trump is doing in Syria or anywhere else. “In the end it doesn’t matter if Baghdadi is dead or when or how he died.” Donald Trump says that Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was killed by the United States military. Baghdadi was the founder of the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), which is also known as ISIS and Daesh. The name is less important than the fact that ISIL carried out a reign of terror against the people of Iraq…

Dr. Eowyn, George Soros admits he’s impeded by Trump to turn U.S. socialist

James Fetzerblog

Dr. Eowyn A week ago, on Oct. 26, 2019, 89-year-old billionaire George Soros, who has spent his fortune promoting open borders and leftwing politicians, media, and organizations, said he has been impeded by opponents, including President Trump, in his lifelong quest to transform the United States into socialism, which he calls “open society”. Soros said that in an interview on Michel Martin’s  All Things Considered on National Public Radio (NPR). Although NPR is funded by U.S. taxpayers, Soros’ Open Society Foundations, to which he had given more than $32 billion, is a financial supporter of NPR — as much as $1.8…

Pat Buchanan, Biden and Other Democrats go “All In” on the Race Issue

James Fetzerblog

Patrick Buchanan [Editor’s note: With the collapse of The Russia Hoax and with Mueller’s testimony to Congress a disaster for Democrats, they appear to be going all out for gun control (on the basis of staged shooting events (which are going to continue unabated) and racism by alleging that Donald Trump is a racist, for which there is massive contrary evidence from those who have worked for him over decades. With Pizzagate threatening to take down many prominent Democrats, a sense of panic appears to be enveloping the party, where…

Roger Stone Needs Our Help: RussiaGate has Come Apart at the Seams

James Fetzerblog

Dear Friend ,I watched the televised hearings with my husband almost two weeks ago in which Special Counsel Robert Mueller testified to the Congressional Committee. While he watched intensely and scribbled notes, my mind wandered to the events of the last 7 months. I have flashbacks about the pre-dawn morning the FBI raided our home and arrested my husband, Roger Stone. It was later that morning that he told a federal magistrate that he pled “not guilty” to all the charges and vowed to fight for exoneration. His trial in Washington DC…

Jonathan Cook, With Criticism Crushed in the West, Israel Can Enjoy Its Impunity 

James Fetzerblog

by JONATHAN COOK Recent events have shone a spotlight not only on how Israel is intensifying its abuse of Palestinians under its rule, but the utterly depraved complicity of western governments in its actions. The arrival of Donald Trump in the White House two-and-a-half years ago has emboldened Israel as never before, leaving it free to unleash new waves of brutality in the occupied territories. Western states have not only turned a blind eye to these outrages, but are actively assisting in silencing anyone who dares to speak out. It is…

Tom Luongo, Epstein Arrest: Peak Swamp?

James Fetzerblog

Tom Luongo “Bernie Birnbaum is a horse of a different color, ethics-wise that is…. … as in he ain’t got none!” — Johnny Caspar, “Miller’s Crossing” Serial pederast Jeffrey Epstein is going to be arrested again. The big questions are why?  And why now? I never doubted Donald Trump’s sincerity in wanting Hillary in jail.  But the reality is that Trump was not in any position to do so.  Until a few months ago. When Attorney General William Barr ended the Mueller investigation back in February that was a turning…
