Will China Send Weapons to Russia?
by Larry C. Johnson | Mar 3, 2023 | Featured Articles

Let me give you a scenario. The United States military occupies Iraq and is trying to quash an Islamic insurgency. We then discover that Iran is providing weapons, vehicles and explosives to those Islamic rebels. Do you think the United States would see that as a...
Is Western Propaganda Failing?
by Larry C. Johnson | Jan 2, 2023 | Featured Articles

What a Coincidence!
by Larry C. Johnson | Sep 28, 2022 | Featured Articles
On the very day the world learns about the sabotage of Russia’s Nordstream 1 and Nordstream 2, guess what else happened? Well, Ukrainians from the Luhansk, Donetsk, Zaporhyzhia and Kherson oblasts voted in overwhelming numbers to become Russians. While that is a game...

by Larry C. Johnson | Sep 26, 2022 | Featured Articles

by Larry C. Johnson | Jul 14, 2022 | Featured Articles
