Good work, Mr. President Biden. You have managed to do what America’s enemies have not – creating widespread hatred for the United States around the globe. Your destruction of the Gaza refugee camps has inflamed antisemitism everywhere. There is widespread disgust and...

Don’t Spare the Billions
by Eric Margolis | Feb 17, 2024 | Featured Articles
When I was a boy growing up in New York City I was taught – and re-taught – to always save half of my weekly allowance and never spend more than I had in savings. Too bad Joe Biden was not taught this useful Presbyterian virtue. Recently, Biden’s government has sought...
Watch Those Houthis – They Are Pretty Tough
by Eric Margolis | Jan 20, 2024 | Featured Articles
The first time I went to remote Yemen, this wild, mountainous nation was just creeping into the 7th Century AD. That was 45 years ago. There was only one hotel in the capital, Sanaa, and it was booked up with European businessmen trying to sell junk to the Yemenis. I...
Stop the Slaughter in Palestine!
by Eric Margolis | Dec 8, 2023 | Featured Articles
Palestinians have become sand in the eyes of the Mideast. How did this happen? From where did they come? Nowhere, according to the late Israeli prime minister Golda Meir. She insisted Palestinians did not exist and were merely human flotsam and jetsam. That was pretty...
‘Make a Desert and Call it Peace’ – Tacitus
by Eric Margolis | Nov 11, 2023 | Featured Articles
Paris – The great Voltaire wrote ‘show me whom you cannot criticize, and I will show you who rules you.’So true. Anyone who dares criticize Israel’s Biblical punishment of Palestinians in the Gaza outdoor prison is immediately subject to a storm of calumny and...
How Much Longer Will Palestinians be a Martyr People?
by Eric Margolis | Oct 13, 2023 | Featured Articles
It’s not a real war. The bloody carnage in Israel and Palestine that we now witness is a large prison uprising being crushed by Israel’s military might. M-16 lightweight rifles against Merkava tanks; home-made rockets (little more than flying pipe bombs) versus...
Kill Al-Zawahiri
by Eric Margolis | Aug 6, 2022 | Featured Articles
It is unsettling to see a democratic government like the United States beating its chest over the high-tech murder of a retired jihadist, Dr. Ayman al-Zawahiri. The 71-year-old al-Zawahiri succeeded the assassinated Osama bin Laden as chief of the anti-US underground...
Stop the Crazy War in Ukraine
by Eric Margolis | Mar 8, 2022 | Featured Articles
The brazenly biased western media is giving us the impression that the Ukraine fighting is some sort of sports competition. Russia’s media, now shamefully silenced in the west by the banning of Russia Today and Sputnik News, portrays the so far modest war in Ukraine...
Stop the Neocons From Starting a War!

Nuclear War Over Ukraine?
by Eric Margolis | Jan 5, 2022 | Featured Articles
How many American soldiers will die in the battle for Luhansk? Or Kerch? Not 1 in 1,000 Americans could find these drab Ukrainian (formerly Russian) industrial cities on a map.How many Americans are aware that a unit of the Florida National Guard is stationed in...
Rebuild America and Fight China?
by Eric Margolis | Nov 12, 2021 | Featured Articles
In an age of TV politicians, President Joe Biden is a figure from another age. He is deeply unexciting and suffering from advanced age – a time in life which the great Charles de Gaulle compared to a “shipwreck.” No mobs of baseball hat-wearing yahoos are about to...
Saving for a Rainy Day
by Eric Margolis | Oct 9, 2021 | Featured Articles
The really wealthy, vexed by tax collectors, pesky relatives, ex-wives and just plain thieves, long ago learned the wisdom of hiding their money and property. This is twice true for politicians. An investigation by an international consortium of journalists just...
Afghanistan: Where’s The Cash?
by Eric Margolis | Sep 28, 2021 | Featured Articles
Afghanistan’s US-run government was the world’s largest producer and exporter of opium, morphine, and the end-product, heroin. As it did after first seizing power in the mid-1990’s, Taliban, the Islamic anti-drug and anti-communist movement, is shutting down the...

Iraq Needs as Independent Government, not ‘Training’
by Eric Margolis | Aug 7, 2021 | Featured Articles
Will US occupation troops really leave Iraq? That’s the question that Washington is so far unable to answer. The White House says the official date of the long goodbye is this month, August 2021. Donald Trump announced a pullout of US troops while still in office but...
Graveyard of Empires
by Eric Margolis | Jul 20, 2021 | Featured Articles
The US-led war in Afghanistan looks to be ending, and not a day too soon. America’s father, Benjamin Franklin, wisely wrote: ‘No good war; no bad peace.’Yet for 20 years, the United States waged all-out war against this small, remote, impoverished state whose only...
‘Rule Britannia, Britannia Rule the Waves…’
by Eric Margolis | Jul 6, 2021 | Featured Articles
Time was when Britain’s mighty fleets ruled a quarter of the earth’s surface. I’ve been savoring the names of its dreadnaughts and battle cruisers like George V, Prince of Wales, Hood, Princess Royal, Iron Duke and scores of other renowned warships. Last week, the...
Trump's Mideast Mirage
by Eric Margolis | Sep 21, 2020 | Featured Articles
The Trump administration, desperate for some good news, just manufactured its own news by confecting a ‘peace’ deal between Israel and a bunch of pipsqueak Arab monarchies – just in time for November US elections. The Gulf monarchies – the United Arab Emirates and...

In 1916, as World War I raged on, a British diplomat, Mark Sykes, met with his French counterpart from the Quai d’Orsay, Monsieur Picot, and signed an agreement to partition the Ottoman Empire once victory was achieved. The heart of the Mideast – Palestine, Syria, and...
How the US Runs Iraq
by Eric Margolis | Jan 11, 2020 | Featured Articles
What ever happened to Iraq? Is it not an independent country with a democratic government thanks to the 2003 US invasion? So says Washington. The murder of senior Iranian military commander Qassem Soleimani suddenly shone a strobe light on ‘independent’ Iraq, and what...
