China Brokered Peace Agreement Between Saudi Arabia and Iran Marks End of Era of American Unipolar Power
Morrigan Johnson The U.S. has lost respect worldwide and control of West Asia and other regions. Ahistoric peace deal was announced March 10, 2023, with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Islamic Republic of Iran adopting a trilateral peace agreement brokered by the People’s Republic of China. In an instant the United States and its NATO allies lost control of West Asia and, most importantly, the international economic system has now begun to fragment. What this deal entailed is principally the normalization and re-establishment of relations between divided foes, Saudi…
Capitalist Eric, Not Much Time Left…
Capitalist Eric Truth is treason in an empire of lies. So the question was posed to me last night: Now that we finally have a major situation unfolding and the dominoes are officially falling. I trust your analysis of timelines. My main question is time. I’m not holding you to anything. I believe you’re all about Truth, and extremely well grounded in reality. Time my friend. How much time do we have left? And are you envisioning a rapid or a prolonged deterioration from here? The short answer is, “nobody knows.” I understand…
Ron Unz. War and Propaganda in the Russia-Ukraine Conflict
Ron Unz We recently passed the first anniversary of the Russia-Ukraine war and the Wall Street Journal published a lengthy review of the twelve months of the conflict, summarizing what had happened and describing future prospects, an article that attracted more than 2,500 comments. Ukraine Is the West’s War Now The initial reluctance of the U.S. and its allies to help Kyiv fight Russia has turned into a massive program of military assistance, which carries risks of its own Yaroslav Trofimov • The Wall Street Journal • February 25, 2023 • 2,800 Words Although…
Seymour Hersh, How America Took Out The Nord Stream Pipeline
Seymour Hersh “Biden’s decision to sabotage the pipelines came after more than nine months of highly secret back and forth debate inside Washington’s national security community . . .” NORD STREAM The U.S. Navy’s Diving and Salvage Center can be found in a location as obscure as its name—down what was once a country lane in rural Panama City, a now-booming resort city in the southwestern panhandle of Florida, 70 miles south of the Alabama border. The center’s complex is as nondescript as its location—a drab concrete post-World War II…
Joachim Hagopian, NEW YORK TIMES’ CONTRADICTION EXPOSED AMIDST EPIC WAR FOR TRUTH OVER LIES
Joachim Hagopian Barely two months into Russia’s Special Military Operation in Ukraine, on May 4th, 2022 The New York Times ran an explosive article with the bombshell headline “U.S. Intelligence is Helping Ukraine Kill Russian Generals, Officials Say.” Its opening sentence emphatically states: The United States has provided intelligence about Russian units that has allowed Ukrainians to target and kill many of the Russian generals who have died in action in the Ukraine war, according to senior American officials. In that same May article, Ukrainian officials with a dubious reputation for…
Joachim Hagopian, RATHER THAN FACE UKRAINE DEFEAT, WESTERN PUPPETS KEEP PROVOKING RUSSIA TOWARDS WORLD WAR III
Joachim Hagopian On Tuesday December 13th, the vice speaker of upper chamber of the Russian parliament who also chairs the Foreign Affairs Committee, Konstantin Kosachev stated on Telegram: ‘Sooner or later, the West will have to make an existential choice’ between catering for only its own interests, ‘or admitting that this suicidal strategy has exhausted itself.’ The West is not “catering for its own interests” as much as its overly aggressive, anti-Russian policies are intended to provoke a regime change in Moscow or instigate World War III for all of humanity to lose.…
Philip Geraldi, Putting an End to Zelensky’s Follies
By Philip Giraldi One week ago, the Ukrainian government may have deliberately attacked neighbor Poland in an attempt to draw the NATO alliance into its war with Russia. The incident involved a missile that hit a grain processing site inside Poland and killed two farmers. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky immediately blamed Russia for the incident even though he surely must have known that the missile had been fired from Ukraine, meaning that he may have been using a so-called “false flag” to create a false narrative of what had occurred. He…
Paul Craig Roberts, Armageddon Is Closer Than You Think
by Paul Craig Roberts The world is facing catastrophe, and there is no awareness. For years I and Stephen Cohen, while he was still alive, advised that Washington’s provocations of Russia, including those of its NATO puppet states, were misguided and counter-productive. Even prior to the fall of the Soviet Union, Gorbachev was open for the Soviet Union to become a cooperating member of the West. The Russian population had a favorable attitude toward the West and looked forward to Russia’s incorporation into the Western world. The Reagan administration and…
William de Berg, Three Viagras and A Cloud of Deception
William de Berg Ohio State University football in the 1960’s under the legendary coach Woody Hayes was known not only for its great success but also for its conservative play-calling, which was given the moniker “three yards and a cloud of dust” because its offense relied mostly on the same tried-and-true running plays. But if the Ohio State playbook was well-worn, the playbook of the Western financial cabal and its political and media henchmen is nothing short of necrotic. Late last week the western media ran wild with a…
