Neocons Try Again in Syria

Neocons Try Again in Syria

On the neocon list of ways to make the world safer for Israel, Iran originally occupied pride of place. “Real men go to Tehran!” was the muscular brag. But Prime Minister Ariel Sharon was persuaded to acquiesce in a less ambitious plan — to “do Iraq” and remove the “evil dictator” in Baghdad first. As the invaders/occupiers got bogged down in Iraq, it seemed more sensible to “do Syria” next. With the help of “friendly services,” the neocons mounted a false-flag chemical attack outside Damascus...

Soros, sanctions, propaganda: How the US government secretly controls the ‘world’s largest investigative journalism organization’

Soros, sanctions, propaganda: How the US government secretly controls the ‘world’s largest investigative journalism organization’

An investigation published on Monday by France’s Mediapart and its partners, including Drop Site News (US), Il Fatto Quotidiano (Italy), and Reporters United (Greece), has uncovered that the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP), the world’s largest investigative journalism network, is secretly controlled by the US government.   The report reveals that Washington has provided around half of the organization’s funding and has significant sway over its leadership and...

Netanyahu Indicted For Crimes Against Humanity

Netanyahu Indicted For Crimes Against Humanity

Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was indicted by the International Criminal Court on November 21 for war crimes and crimes against humanity. The U.S. is not a member of this court, and I don’t think it should be because it would not allow jury trials for some crimes committed by U.S. citizens on U.S. soil. But the U.S. played a central role in the establishment of the court, and the fact that we are not a member certainly does not make the indictment less true. The indictment charges...

The Long War to Reaffirm Western and Israeli Primacy Undergoes a Shape-shift

The Long War to Reaffirm Western and Israeli Primacy Undergoes a Shape-shift

The long war to reaffirm western and Israeli primacy is undergoing a shape-shift. On one front, the calculus in respect to Russia and the Ukraine war has shifted. And in the Middle East, the locus and shape of the war is shifting in a distinct way. Georges Kennan’s famed Soviet doctrine has long formed the baseline to US policy, firstly directed toward the Soviet Union, and latterly, towards Russia. Kennan’s thesis from 1946 was that the United States needed to work patiently and resolutely to...

DOGE’s Best First Target: the National Endowment for Democracy

DOGE’s Best First Target: the National Endowment for Democracy

The new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) should seriously consider the National Endowment for Democracy (NED) for its high priority list of federal cost cutting measures in 2025. It’s not only a sinkhole of American taxpayer dollars—over $1 billion in congressional appropriations from 2020, 2021, 2022 to 2023—but NED’s mission to “promote freedom around the world" has over the decades translated into countless cases of counterproductive meddling that puts truly organic...

Legal Plunder: Indiana Police Prey On Packages Transiting Huge FedEx Hub

Legal Plunder: Indiana Police Prey On Packages Transiting Huge FedEx Hub

From a federal government operating far beyond the bounds of the Constitution to law enforcement agencies routinely entering private property without warrants, tyranny takes many forms in the United States. However, few are as shocking to the sensibilities as civil asset forfeiture, the controversial practice that empowers police to seize money, cars, trucks, houses or anything else they merely accuse of having a link to criminal activity — regardless of whether the...

Biden’s Parting Shot at America

Biden’s Parting Shot at America

The interim between a US presidential election and the swearing in of a new Administration has for most of our history been a non-eventful period where the outgoing Administration winds down operations and the incoming Administration ramps up new personnel before the inauguration. The 20th Amendment to our Constitution was enacted in 1933 to reduce the “lame duck” period between election and inauguration to January 20th instead of March 4th. Increasing ease in travel and communications made...

Lebanon’s Unbalanced Ceasefire Teeters on the Brink

Lebanon’s Unbalanced Ceasefire Teeters on the Brink

Only Israel has opened fire since the start of the “ceasefire”, and Israel has done so repeatedly. Nobody has fired back. Israel has for three days in a row attacked alleged Hezbollah rocket sites with bombs or missiles, killing at least four people and probably more. Israel has opened fire on journalists. It has critically wounded two mourners at a funeral. There are numerous reports of Lebanese civilians returning to their homes in the South coming under fire from Israeli troops. This video...

Pakistan: Slow Motion Train Wreck

Pakistan: Slow Motion Train Wreck

Pakistan is the world’s most important Muslim nation. It has 251 million people, nuclear weapons, the world’s sixth largest armed forces, intelligent, capable people, vast lands and major sources of water. Yet Pakistan is a giant mess. Its current politics are a form of tribal warfare. Corruption engulfs almost everything. Disease, particularly diabetes, afflicts its long-suffering people. Polio is making return. In recent years, Pakistan has suffered vast floods that have ravaged this nation....

Atlanticists Mobilise to Salvage NATO as Russia Toughens its Stance

Atlanticists Mobilise to Salvage NATO as Russia Toughens its Stance

The American film maker and philanthropist who created the Star Wars and Indiana Jones franchises, George Lucas, once said, “Fear is the path to the Dark Side. Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering.” Within a week of Russia “testing” the Oreshnik hypersonic missile in Dnipropetrovsk, Ukraine, against which the NATO has no defence, the Western alliance is already transiting through the Dark Side from fear to hatred and hurtling toward unspeakable suffering.  The...

Less Government Brings a Happy Thanksgiving

Less Government Brings a Happy Thanksgiving

Government requires make-believe. Make believe that the king is divine, make believe that he can do no wrong or make believe that the voice of the people is the voice of God. Make believe that the people have a voice or make believe that the representatives of the people are the people. Make believe that governors are the servants of the people. Make believe that all men are created equal or make believe that they are not. -- Edmund S. Morgan (1916-2013) What if the government’s true goal is...

Sebastian Gorka: British Intelligence Asset?

Sebastian Gorka: British Intelligence Asset?

Sebastian Gorka’s involvement with British intelligence cost him a security clearance in Hungary. His longtime mentor is a UK spook currently engaged in covert operations against Russia. Is the Ukraine hawk and Trump counter-terror appointee operating on London time? After years in the wilderness of right-wing radio, where he flamboyantly proclaimed his loyalty to president-elect Donald Trump for years, Sebastian Gorka has finally found his way back into Trump’s inner circle, earning an...

Four Gentlemen Tour the Bekaa Valley

Four Gentlemen Tour the Bekaa Valley

On Thursday evening news came through that we had at long last gained the full list of approvals required to travel to report outside Beirut; we were cleared by the Ministry of Information, the Ministry of Defence, and the local authorities. Laith Marouf of Free Palestine TV called me and suggested we go down together on Friday to the southern capital of Nabatieh, which has been enduring heavy bombing. I asked Laith to give me half an hour, and did some quick research. Nabatieh is about 12...

Trump v. The Bureaucracy

Trump v. The Bureaucracy

The war has begun. It’s Trump, Elon, Vivek Ramaswamy, and their new Department of Government Efficiency versus the Federal bureaucracy in a no-holds barred cage deathmatch. The first punches have been thrown; who will win? At stake are your tax dollars. U.S. election night 2024 was a somber affair in Europe, as U.S. officials in most European capitals abandoned the usual watch parties. Watch parties used to be a long-standing American diplomatic tradition, held at embassies with invited local...

The Counterinsurgency is ‘On’ – Against Trump’s ‘Storm’

The Counterinsurgency is ‘On’ – Against Trump’s ‘Storm’

“The Deep State whispered to Trump: “You cannot withstand the storm.” Trump whispered back: “I am the storm.” The war is on. The Deep State has launched a war of disruption to disable Trump’s “storm.” Last week’s ATACM strike was but one part to an inter-agency counter-insurgency – a political strike directed at Trump; so too are all the inter-agency false narratives attributed to the Trump camp; and so too, the escalating provocations directed at Iran. Be assured the Five Eyes are full...

Divide and Conquer: Political Riptides Threaten to Overwhelm the Nation

Divide and Conquer: Political Riptides Threaten to Overwhelm the Nation

Once again we find ourselves approaching that time of year when, as George Washington and Abraham Lincoln proclaimed, we’re supposed to give thanks as a nation and as individuals for our safety and our freedoms. But how do you give thanks for freedoms that are constantly being eroded? How do you express gratitude for one’s safety when the perils posed by the American police state grow more treacherous by the day? How do you come together as a nation in thanksgiving when the...
