Unfortunately, a machine has not yet been developed that can take one back in time and undo terrible mistakes being made due to lack of appreciation of possible downstream consequences of certain actions. If Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary had been...

America the Unspeakable
by Philip Giraldi | Sep 15, 2024 | Featured Articles
Some commentators who bothered to watch the Trump-Harris debate observed that both candidates adroitly maneuvered around saying anything that might be truly important. The issue of war and peace, meaning in this case nuclear war, appeared to be of no concern even...
America’s Search for New Enemies
by Philip Giraldi | Aug 17, 2024 | Featured Articles
Does anyone really think that Iran threatens the United States? It’s only plausible if you can be convinced by a congenital liar and war criminal like Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu or by a buffoon like Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina. My head was...
There Is Something Rotten in Washington
by Philip Giraldi | Aug 12, 2024 | Featured Articles
One thing you can say about the Administration of President Joe Biden is that nearly every week there is something new and exciting to discuss. Galloping dementia recently gifted us with Joe’s 11 minute abdication speech in which he announced that he would not be...
War Criminal Benjamin Netanyahu Addresses the US Congress
by Philip Giraldi | Jul 26, 2024 | Featured Articles
To my surprise, last Thursday morning there was relatively little coverage of the address to the US Congress delivered by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu last Wednesday afternoon apart from a critical opinion piece that appeared in...
Supporting Israel Is Big Business in the United States
by Philip Giraldi | Jul 14, 2024 | Featured Articles
In a recent article discussing how US Treasury Department tax breaks are exploited by groups that raise money in America in support of the Israeli so-called Defense Forces (IDF), I concluded that it does not require any particular brilliance on the part of...
Land of the Free?
by Philip Giraldi | Jun 7, 2024 | Featured Articles
Many individuals who actually care about the United States Constitution and it guarantee of basic liberties for the American people have been seriously concerned over how recent Administrations, both Republican and Democratic, have taken steps to control and limit the...
The Second Round of Retaliation Between Israel and Iran Has Just Begun
by Philip Giraldi | Apr 19, 2024 | Featured Articles
Given the lying and fact twisting that have routinely been part and parcel of accounts of what is occurring in the Middle East, the past several weeks have nevertheless been shocking in terms of how an abysmally low standard of truth can be reduced even farther....
Where Does Israel-Gaza Go from Here?
by Philip Giraldi | Mar 23, 2024 | Featured Articles
I had an interesting discussion last week with a Washington-based political pundit who expressed some what I thought to be eccentric views on possible developments in the presidential campaign over the next six months. He said that that strange little man Jared...
The United States Vetoes Yet Another UN Humanitarian Ceasefire Over Gaza
by Philip Giraldi | Feb 21, 2024 | Featured Articles
There have been several interesting developments relating to Israel’s ongoing destruction of Gaza and its people, but one might well question the motives of at least one of the principal players in the drama, namely Joe Biden’s United States government. Last Tuesday...
American Foreign Policy Seems to Have Nowhere to Go
by Philip Giraldi | Feb 17, 2024 | Featured Articles
Over the past four months I have carried out my daily morning scan of the major online news websites increasingly concerned over what I would be seeing given the mainstream media’s reluctance to report honestly and the persistent management by government propaganda...
Israel Goes to Court for the Crime of Genocide
by Philip Giraldi | Jan 12, 2024 | Featured Articles
A friend of mine who follows international developments closely recently observed that the United States and Israel have “own goaled” themselves to become widely perceived as together the two most evil governments on earth. It is a judgement that is hard to disagree...
A Week Like No Other
by Philip Giraldi | Dec 15, 2023 | Featured Articles
The first week in December of this year was all about America’s apparent inextinguishable love for the state of Israel. After a short pause to exchange hostages for prisoners, the Israelis re-launched their drive to exterminate the Gazans and steal what remains of...
Gaza Strikes Back
by Philip Giraldi | Oct 16, 2023 | Featured Articles
It’s amazing how America’s thought-controlled media is able to come up with a suitable narrative almost immediately whenever there is an international incident that might be subject to multiple interpretations. Since 1948 Israel has expelled hundreds of thousands of...
Senators Bob Menendez and Ben Cardin Play Musical Chairs
by Philip Giraldi | Oct 10, 2023 | Featured Articles
Many Americans have come to accept that corruption and lying is the name of the game in Washington and, increasingly, at both state and local levels of government, in part because lying and stealing by those who run the country has become virtually consequence free....
Zelensky Should Have Stayed Home
by Philip Giraldi | Oct 3, 2023 | Featured Articles
Most Americans do not understand how the United Nations functions, or does not function as the case might be, preferring to think of it as some kind of debating society where the 193 member nations representing the world community can vent over issues that they rarely...
Americans Are Being Led By a Lying Media and Corrupt Political Class
by Philip Giraldi | Sep 20, 2023 | Featured Articles
Each morning I do a quick scan of the headlines coming over the wire services, clear my emails and Facebook entries, and then take a closer look at The New York Times online, paying particular attention to the opinion pages. I usually am not disappointed in my belief...
A Personal Journey Through the National Security State
by Philip Giraldi | Sep 13, 2023 | Featured Articles
(This presentation was prepared for the Sept. 1st. Ron Paul Institute's Ron Paul Scholars Seminar)I am accustomed to opening the New York Times and The Washington Post to find laundry list articles relating to what the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) has reportedly...
Is the Almighty US Dollar About to Take a Fall?
by Philip Giraldi | Sep 5, 2023 | Featured Articles
August 23rd was a big news day all over the world. The western media’s focus on the events of that day was solidly on the unproven claims that Russian President Vladimir Putin was behind the sabotage or shooting down of an executive jet that killed his former...
America’s Domestic Party Politics Fuel the Ukraine Catastrophe
by Philip Giraldi | Aug 29, 2023 | Featured Articles
I am surely not the only one who has noticed that the defensive propaganda lines that are flowing out the Democratic Administration have become more than ordinarily ridiculous of late. One is astonished at the melding of fact and fiction to create narratives that...
