The book I am reviewing today, “Disintegration: Indicators of the Coming American Collapse” can be pre-ordered from Clarity Press here and from Amazon here.   If the first two volumes…

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…

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…

Revealed: Trump Fired Comey to Carry Out His Campaign Pledge to Work with Russia

James Fetzerblog

The Lead There is one major story buried in the scurrilous Mueller report which must be made known internationally, immediately. As LaRouchePAC’s Barbara Boyd writes in her report on the Mueller report: “In the original letter which Trump dictated to Stephen Miller, firing Comey, Donald Trump said that Comey’s refusal to [state publicly that Trump was not a target] was specifically inhibiting what the President wanted to do with Russia, with respect to trade and with respect to collaboration on eliminating ISIS. With the intervention of the same staff whom…

‘NATO Has Outlived Its Usefulness & Should Go Into Dustbin of History’ – Scholar

James Fetzerblog

SputnikNews On Monday, The New York Times cited unnamed senior administration officials as saying that US President Donald Trump has ostensibly questioned US membership in NATO and expressed a wish to withdraw the country from the bloc. Radio Sputnik has discussed the report with James Fetzer, Professor Emeritus, University of Minnesota. Sputnik: What are your thoughts on the report that US President Trump repeatedly expressed his wish to withdraw the country from NATO? James Fetzer: Well, Trump as a businessman has approached this from the point of view of finances and of course until very recently only four other members of NATO paid…

James O’Neill: Is the US Planning a Major War with Russia and China?

James Fetzer7/7 London attacks.Muad'Dib, blog

James O’Neill Two recent reports from the United States strongly suggest the United States is planning a major war with Russia and China, but are far from certain that they could in fact succeed in such a war. The reports also provide insights into how the United States will meet the budgetary demands of such war preparations, but almost zero appreciation of the social and human costs of such policies. The first of these reports is entitled “Providing for the Common Defence” (November 2018). It is the report prepared for the purpose…

Gordon Duff and NEO – Mueller Dropping Russia Probe, Says Trump Working for Israel and Saudis

James Fetzerblog

by Gordon Duff with New Eastern Outlook, Moscow The Mueller Russia probe, according to mainstream media sources, Daily Beast, BBC, Vanity Fair, UK Independent, Mother Jones, al Jazeera, the UK Guardian and others, as of mid-December 2018, has changed direction. [Editor’s note: Let me say right off the bat that Duff has a long history with the CIA and gave me the boot from Veterans Today in 2015 for writing about JADEHELM15. So I do not take for granted the accuracy of his reporting. In this case, however, it coincides with…

Paul Craig Roberts: Washington Is Changing The World Order against Its Own Interests

James Fetzerblog

Paul Craig Roberts The hubris and arrogance of Washington have been at work since the Clinton regime to destroy the power and relevance of the United States. This website has an international audience. The most asked question from this audience is the world order. There is a realization that Washington’s control might weaken, a development people abroad see as hopeful. They ask me for verification of their hope. Here is my answer: The world order has already changed.  China has a larger and more powerful industrial and manufacturing based economy…

Robert Steele: While Moscow Talks About Treaties, the Deep State is Starting World War III – Now – This Month!

James Fetzerblog

Robert David STEELE Vivas While Moscow Talks About Treaties, the Deep State is Starting World War III – Now – This Month! As published in Russian International Affairs Council blog, 9 November 2018. I make it a point to check the Russian International Affairs Council pages regularly, and I was not disappointed when I found President Igor Ivanov’s article, “Road to Nowhere,” as published also in The Moscow Times.[1] Everything stated in this article is in my view correct. HOWEVER, there is nothing in this article about the possibilities, in…

Paul Craig Roberts, On the Triumph of Evil

James Fetzerblog

Paul Craig Roberts The murder of Jamal Khashoggi inside the Saudi Arabian embassy in Turkey is unprecedented in its audacity. The response from Washington and the Canadian government is to sell more weapons to Saudi Arabia, weapons that are being used by the Saudis in their destruction of the Yemeni population. The Russian response, if the report I saw was not fake news, is to sell the Saudis the S-400 air defense system.  What we can conclude from this is that armament profits take precedence over murder and genocide. Genocide is what is…
