West Asia reacts to Trump’s dalliance with Zionism

West Asia reacts to Trump’s dalliance with Zionism

by | Nov 16, 2024 |

The election victory of Donald Trump in the November 5 election is being perceived in the West Asian region with growing anxiety as presaging the US aligning one hundred percent with the Zionist project for Greater Israel.  Although Trump has kept out vociferous neocons from his government positions, the same cannot be said for pro-Zionist figures. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu claims he has spoken three times with Trump already since the election and they “see eye-to-eye...

The Bogus Iranian Assassination Plot

The Bogus Iranian Assassination Plot

by | Nov 15, 2024 |

My chat with Tom Luongo, author of Gold, Goats N’ Guns, is posted at the end of this piece and is sparking some controversy and anger over a brief comment Tom made with respect to the Palestinians and Iran. While I don’t agree with him, I still find him a very smart, contrarian analyst. Some of the folks commenting on YouTube are losing their minds. They are judging an 80-minute conversation based on just five minutes. I don’t want a world in which I only talk to people who...

Musk Secretly Met With Iran’s UN Ambassador, Raising Hopes Trump Will Keep Hawks At Bay

by | Nov 15, 2024 |

In the latest surprising development accompanying Donald Trump's return to the presidency, the New York Times has reported that Trump advisor Elon Musk quietly met with Iran's United Nations ambassador on Monday to discuss how the United States and Iran might ease tensions.   News of Musk's peace-seeking overture came after Trump caused widespread dismay among America-First conservatives and libertarians by nominating an assortment of anti-Iran hawks...

Will Gabbard Be Able to Direct the Intelligence ‘Community’?

Will Gabbard Be Able to Direct the Intelligence ‘Community’?

by | Nov 15, 2024 |

President-elect Donald Trump’s selection of Tulsi Gabbard to be director of national intelligence (DNI) will cause shockwaves in and among the 18 fiefdoms that now comprise the U.S. intelligence community. Gabbard will be fighting an uphill battle if she tries to herd those 18 cats into a cohesive whole and restore integrity to intelligence analysis. The hill’s incline will be still steeper, if she takes seriously her duty to warn the president of the frequently noxious blowback of C.I.A....

Navigating the Fiscal Storm: A New Course for U.S. National Defense

Navigating the Fiscal Storm: A New Course for U.S. National Defense

by | Nov 14, 2024 |

DEFENSE PAPER: TAMING THE WARFARE STATE The United States is sailing through turbulent waters: the post-Cold War unipolar moment has passed, and the 21st-century geopolitical landscape is shaped by sweeping social, political, and technological change. Our current defense policy, a relic from a bygone era, is an expensive and ill-fitting suit that no longer serves its purpose. The fiscal storm is upon us, and profound changes are needed to right the ship. The Defense Elephant in the Room The...

Is Trump Trolling the Democrats and RINOS?

Is Trump Trolling the Democrats and RINOS?

by | Nov 14, 2024 |

I know there is a lot of angst and pearl-clutching in response to Trump’s nominations of so many ardent Zionist-supporters to his Administration. Yet, not a single one of the nominees has a blood relationship with Israel. Not one holds or has held Israeli citizenship. So, on that count, Trump is doing better compared to Biden. I know, small consolation. Look on the bright side — Marco Rubio will never be called, “Netanyahu’s lawyer,” a title currently held by Antony Blinken. Let me quote...

Gitmo Continues to Haunt

Gitmo Continues to Haunt

Here’s a pop quiz: When can an Army colonel overrule the Secretary of Defense? It happened last week for probably the first time in modern history. The short answer is: Even in the military, the Secretary of Defense cannot change the rules and procedures for criminal prosecutions and tell military judges how to try cases. Here is the backstory. For years, the feds told us that Osama bin Laden was the 9/11 mastermind. Then, after they murdered bin Laden in his home in Pakistan in 2011, they...

Why Conservative Christians Oppose Marijuana Ballot Initiatives

Why Conservative Christians Oppose Marijuana Ballot Initiatives

by | Nov 13, 2024 |

Conservative, evangelical, and fundamentalist churches in Florida are rejoicing and thanking God that Amendment 3 on the Florida ballot to legalize the recreational use of marijuana was rejected by Florida voters. Although a majority of people in Florida did vote in favor of the amendment, it needed to receive a 60% supermajority to be approved. The ballot summary of Amendment 3 read: Allows adults 21 years or older to possess, purchase, or use marijuana products and marijuana accessories for...

What is Donald Trump Doing?

What is Donald Trump Doing?

by | Nov 13, 2024 |

Let me state up front that I am no “Trump fan-boy.” But I am sure that what I am about to write will lead some of you to accuse me of that. So be it. When you listen to my interview earlier today with Danny Davis, I was quite disturbed by the news (still unconfirmed) that Trump planned to appoint Marco Rubio as Secretary of State. Rubio is a lightweight on all counts and not a deep strategic thinker. But then came tonight’s stunner — Trump named Fox News host, Pete Hegseth, as his...

The West’s Very Fundamental Accumulating Contradictions

The West’s Very Fundamental Accumulating Contradictions

by | Nov 12, 2024 |

The election has occurred; Trump will take office in January; many of the existing Party Nomenklatura will be replaced; different policies will be announced – but actually taking power (rather than just sitting in the White House) will be more complex. The US has devolved into many disparate fiefdoms – almost princedoms – from the CIA to the Justice Department. And regulatory “agencies” too, have been implanted to preserve Nomenklatura hold on the System’s lifeblood. Pulling these ideological...

Make Way for the Colonel

Make Way for the Colonel

by | Nov 12, 2024 |

In the wake of the former and future president Donald Trump’s historic electoral victory, the mandate for an America First foreign policy has never been clearer. The American electorate has expressed a desire for a departure from the entrenched globalist strategies that have long characterized U.S. foreign policy. At this pivotal moment, the former Colonel Douglas Macgregor, a man of valor, intellect, and a fierce advocate for national sovereignty, emerges as the quintessential figure to help...

Iran Strongly Denies US Claims It Was Involved in Plot To Kill Trump

Iran Strongly Denies US Claims It Was Involved in Plot To Kill Trump

by | Nov 12, 2024 |

Iran’s Foreign Ministry has strongly denied US claims that Iran was involved in an alleged plot to kill President-elect Donald Trump, dismissing the charge as a way to “complicate matters” between the US and Iran. On Friday, the US Justice Department announced charges over the alleged plot, claiming that Iranian officials asked an Afghan national who currently resides in Tehran to surveil and ultimately assassinate Trump. “Who can in their right mind believe that a supposed...

The Second Resistance Movement: Why the Campaign Against Trump This Time is Different

by | Nov 11, 2024 |

Below is my column in The Hill on the growing calls for an organized resistance to the Trump Administration by Democratic governors and prosecutors. They may find, however, that the resistance movement this time around will be facing significant legal and political headwinds. Here is the column: The single most common principle of recovery programs is that the first step is to admit that you have a problem. That first step continues to elude the politicians and pundits who unsuccessfully...

Two days after Donald Trump became the first American since Grover Cleveland to win nonconsecutive presidential elections, the Federal Reserve announced a quarter percent cut in interest rates. Following this announcement, Fed Chairman Jerome Powell held a press conference where he said that he would not comply with any presidential request that he step down before his term ends in May of 2026. Powell claimed that the president lacks the legal authority to fire the Fed chairman. So, if...

The CDC Planned Quarantine Camps Nationwide

The CDC Planned Quarantine Camps Nationwide

by | Nov 8, 2024 |

No matter how bad you think Covid policies were, they were intended to be worse.  Consider the vaccine passports alone. Six cities were locked down to include only the vaccinated in public indoor places. They were New York City, Boston, Chicago, New Orleans, Washington, D.C., and Seattle. The plan was to enforce this with a vaccine passport. It broke. Once the news leaked that the shot didn’t stop infection or transmission, the planners lost public support and the scheme collapsed.  It...

Will Trump Buckle Again on the JFK Records?

Will Trump Buckle Again on the JFK Records?

by | Nov 7, 2024 |

 fascinating situation has now developed between President-elect Donald Trump and the U.S. national-security establishment with respect to the long-secret JKF-assassination-related records that the CIA has succeeded in keeping secret for more than 60 years. Despite Trump’s campaign vow to release those records, it’s not at all clear how this matter is going to be resolved. I will give my prediction at the end of this article. There are three major factors at play: 1. During his 2024...
