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, DID UKRAINE COMMIT AN ACT OF TERRORISM NEAR MOSCOW ASSASSINATING ALEKSANDR DUGIN’S DAUGHTER?
By Joachim Hagopian The disturbing story out of Moscow this week is the car bomb assassination of 29-year old Russian journalist Darya Dugina, daughter of Russian nationalist, philosopher and geopolitical strategist Aleksandr Dugin. Western media often has called the 60-year old Dugin “Putin’s brain” and a close Putin ally, yet no evidence or photograph proving they’ve ever met has surfaced, much less indicate Dugin ever influenced Moscow’s foreign policy with no direct Kremlin ties. Yet both father and daughter are clearly pro-Russian nationalists. The near constant Western aggression and provocation against Russia as its designated…
THE END GAME IS OUT IN THE OPEN: RADIATION LEAK FROM UKRAINE NUCLEAR PLANT “WILL TRIGGER NATO ARTICLE 5”
HAL TURNER [Editor’s note: Among the most important points made by Hal Turner occur in his commentary toward the end, specifically: Ukraine is using Western-supplied weapons to attack a nuclear power plant inside their own country . . . and the West says that if there’s a radiation leak from the plant, “that will automatically Trigger NATO Article 5 collective self defense.” Well, no, it won’t. Ukraine is not a member of NATO. Worse, it is Ukraine attacking the nuclear power plant. So if a radiation leak occurs, it will have been Ukraine that caused it,…
Dr. Joseph Mercola, Ukraine War: Biowarfare and the Theft of Billions
Dr. Joseph Mercola STORY AT-A-GLANCE For years, Ukraine was recognized as one of the most, if not “the” most, corrupt nation in Europe. It held on to that reputation all the way up to the day Russia invaded it, at which point media worldwide suddenly started rewriting history A few days after firing several top officials, Zelensky also issued a blacklist of American “pro-Russian propagandists,” which includes Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky, former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, D-Hawaii, and independent journalist Glenn Greenwald After receiving billions of dollars from American taxpayers, Zelensky…
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…
Jeffrey Sachs and Philip Giraldi: The Ukraine War Is Yet Another Neocon War
Jeffrey Sachs and Philip Giraldi Edited by Kevin MacDonald Jeffrey Sachs in Tikkun (a liberal-left Jewish publication): The war in Ukraine is the culmination of a 30-year project of the American neoconservative movement. The Biden Administration is packed with the same neocons who championed the US wars of choice in Serbia (1999), Afghanistan (2001), Iraq (2003), Syria (2011), Libya (2011), and who did so much to provoke Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The neocon track record is one of unmitigated disaster, yet Biden has staffed his team with neocons. As a result, Biden is…
Putin on the West: “They have already lost”
Thomas Röper At a meeting with the faction leaders in the Russian parliament on 8 July 2022, Putin made a speech that contained many important statements. In his meeting with the faction leaders of the parties in the Russian parliament, President Putin made a short speech that contained many interesting statements, which is why different media outlets set very different priorities in their headlines. RT-DE, for example, headlined ‘Putin: ‘The West wants to beat us on the battlefield – Let them just try” – while the Spiegel headline ‘ Putin on the war…
EU parliament declares fossil fuel to be “green” energy as climate change narrative self-destructs
Mike Adams (Natural News) The EU parliament just announced a decision that’s causing the fraudulent climate change narrative to self-destruct. “EU parliament backs labeling gas and nuclear investments as green,” reads a Reuters headline from yesterday. “The European Parliament on Wednesday backed EU rules labeling investments in gas and nuclear power plants as climate-friendly,” Reuters continues, explaining that the EU has been plunged into an energy crisis that’s dividing EU nations and forcing a reevaluation on which energy sources are deemed “renewable.” When this rule is fully adopted, it means Russia’s Putin…
Nuclear War Could Mean Annihilation, But Biden and Congress Are Messing Around
Norman Solomon The Biden administration hasn’t just remained mum about current nuclear war dangers — it’s actively exacerbating them. President Joe Biden and top subordinates have refused to publicly acknowledge the danger of nuclear war — even though it is now higher than at any other time in at least 60 years. Their silence is insidious and powerful, and their policy of denial makes grassroots activism all the more vital for human survival. In the aftermath of the 1962 Cuban missile crisis, President John F. Kennedy was more candid. Speaking at American…
Massive Implications, Saudi Arabia in Discussion to Join BRICS Coalition – The Outcome Would be Global Energy and Economic Cleaving
sundance It is very curious timing in this article from Newsweek, containing massive geopolitical implications, using identified Saudi Arabia sources, would come in advance of Joe Biden’s visit to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Is this strategic geopolitical pressure from Saudi leader Mohamed Bin Salman (MbS) ahead of the meeting with Biden; or is this a genuine possibility that looms as likely? If the former, then Joe Biden is being geopolitically slow roasted by Saudi Arabia for his previous disparagements and ideological hypocrisy in his visit. If it is the latter,…
