The Coming Novus Ordo Seclorum – Change We Must; There is No Choice!

The Coming Novus Ordo Seclorum – Change We Must; There is No Choice!

by | Jun 4, 2024 |

On a visit to Oxford a few weeks ago, Josep Borrell, the EU’s High Representative, (Walter Münchau writes), made an interesting remark: “Diplomacy is the art of managing double standards.” Münchau illustrated its inherent hypocrisy by contrasting the enthusiasm with which EU leaders supported the ICC’s decision to seek an arrest warrant against Putin last year, and “yet not to accept it – when it hits a member of your team” (i.e. Netanyahu). The most egregious example of such double...

The Bogus Rise in Antisemitic Incidents on College Campuses Statistic in a US House Resolution Being Voted On This Week

by | Jun 3, 2024 |

This week, the members of the United States House of Representatives are scheduled to vote on H.Res. 1215, a resolution “Calling on elected officials and civil society leaders to join in efforts to educate the public on the contributions of the Jewish-American community.” In the whereas clauses of the resolution there are mentions of Major League Baseball players Sandy Koufax and Hank Greenberg, presented as “Jewish-American athletes” who “excelled at sports while staying true to their...

The Trump Trial and our Injustice System

The Trump Trial and our Injustice System

by | Jun 3, 2024 |

I’ve long criticized our current US justice system – on all levels – as becoming much more about political justice than blind justice. The bizarre trial and conviction of former President Donald Trump last week on 34 felonies only reinforces my concerns. The New York District Attorney, Soros-backed Alvin Bragg, has been notorious for downgrading felony charges against others to misdemeanor charges. According to a recent article in the Daily Mail, Bragg had downgraded 60 percent of felony cases...

The US Empire Isn’t A Government That Runs Nonstop Wars, It’s A Nonstop War That Runs A Government

The US Empire Isn’t A Government That Runs Nonstop Wars, It’s A Nonstop War That Runs A Government

by | Jun 1, 2024 |

It clears up a lot of confusion when you understand that the US empire is not a national government which happens to run nonstop military operations, it’s a nonstop military operation that happens to run a national government. The wars are not designed to serve the interests of the United States, the United States is designed to serve the interests of the wars. The US as a country is just a source of funding, personnel, resources and diplomatic cover for a nonstop campaign to dominate the...

Robert Fico’s failed assassination raises specter of Western plotting

Robert Fico’s failed assassination raises specter of Western plotting

by | May 31, 2024 |

On May 15, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico was almost murdered in broad daylight. While shaking hands with supporters during a public appearance, a gunman shot him twice in the abdomen and once in the shoulder. The attack left him fighting for his life while authorities raced for clues, and many observers at home and abroad puzzled about the would-be assassin’s motives and whether foreign actors were in some way responsible for the attack. And despite the shooter’s instantaneous...

American Caesar and Constitutional Indifference

American Caesar and Constitutional Indifference

by | May 31, 2024 |

A recent column in The Economist magazine asking if America is dictator-proof got me to thinking if our constitutional guarantees are secure. Stated differently: Can the custodians of our constitutional norms be trusted to restrain a deliberate attempt to ignore, diminish or evade the Constitution? The short answer is: NO. The history of what I will charitably call constitutional indifference is long and tortuous. It goes back to the earliest days of the republic when, in a period of eight...

Sanctions Are for Losers

Sanctions Are for Losers

by | May 29, 2024 |

On April 13, Iran launched an unprecedented retaliatory drone and missile attack on Israel, leading the U.S. and its allies to reach once again for their favorite weapon of war—sanctions. This knee-jerk reaction was as predictable as it was ill-founded, according to the scholarly research. In Nicholas Mulder’s 2022 treatise The Economic Weapon: The Rise of Sanctions as a Tool of Modern War, he traces the history of sanctions from the blockades in World War I to today’s morass of economic...

Mossad Chief Stalked, Threatened ICC Prosecutor Over War Crimes Probe: Report

by | May 29, 2024 |

A new bombshell investigation undertaken jointly by the Guardian and +972 mag has revealed that the head of Mossad conducted surveillance on the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC) related to her opening a formal investigation into alleged Israeli war crimes. Then ICC prosecutor Fatou Bensouda had opened the formal inquiry in 2021 to examine years of allegations of human rights abuse and war crimes against Palestinians committed by Israel's...

Neocon Nikki Signs Israeli Bombs Urging Israel to Kill Palestinian Civilians

Neocon Nikki Signs Israeli Bombs Urging Israel to Kill Palestinian Civilians

by | May 28, 2024 |

Just when you thought "Neocon Nikki" could not sink any lower, former Greek Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis has posted on Twitter/X a deeply disturbing photo of former Republican presidential candidate - and reportedly in the running for Trump's VP pick - in Israel signing bombs destined for Palestinian refugees living in tents in Rafah with the slogan, "FINISH THEM!" Just one day after the Israeli military incinerated untold scores of Palestinian refugees in Rafah and after the...

The Brink of Dissolution: Neurosis in the West as the Levee Breaks

The Brink of Dissolution: Neurosis in the West as the Levee Breaks

by | May 28, 2024 |

The paradox is that Team Biden – wholly inadvertently – is midwifing the birth of a “new world.” It is doing so by dint of its crude opposition to parturition. The more the western élites push against the birthing – through “saving Zionism”; “saving European Ukraine” and by crushing dissent – perversely they accelerate the foundering of Leviathan. President Xi's double farewell hug for President Putin following their 16-17 May summit nonetheless sealed the birth – even the New York...

Biden’s Tariffs Are Another Nail in the Dollar’s Coffin

by | May 27, 2024 |

President Biden recently raised taxes on American consumers and businesses and may have hastened the end of the dollar’s world reserve currency status. President Biden did this by increasing tariffs on Chinese imports. Specifically, President Biden raised tariffs on products including Chinese-produced steel and aluminum and many components imported from China for use in manufacturing electric vehicle batteries. Tariffs on Chinese-made semiconductors are rising from 25 to 50 percent while...

Like So Much Else, The Fuss Over ‘International Law’ Is Really About Narrative Control

Like So Much Else, The Fuss Over ‘International Law’ Is Really About Narrative Control

by | May 27, 2024 |

The International Court of Justice has ordered Israel to cease its assault on Rafah, an order which will certainly be disregarded by Israel with the full support of Washington. This comes days after the International Criminal Court announced its intention to seek warrants for the arrest of Israeli officials for war crimes in Gaza, which will also be dismissed by Israel and its hegemonic ally to the west. The other day ICC prosecutor Karim Khan said that when...

J.D. Vance Condemned Neocons—Then Called for the Same Middle East Policy

J.D. Vance Condemned Neocons—Then Called for the Same Middle East Policy

by | May 25, 2024 |

Sen. J.D. Vance (R–Ohio.) believes that American neoconservatives have caused 40 years of "disasters" in the Middle East. But he's doubling down on exactly the vision they've had all along: an alliance of Israel and Sunni Muslim–led states, backed by U.S. military power, to "police" the region. At a Thursday conference hosted by the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft—where I worked as a researcher several years ago—and The American Conservative, the senator laid...

US Service Member Critically Injured In Gaza Pier Op To Bypass Israeli Blockade

US Service Member Critically Injured In Gaza Pier Op To Bypass Israeli Blockade

by | May 25, 2024 |

Update: According to media reporting, at least part of the Gaza pier has been washed away. -Ed. A cost of US government support of Israel's war in Gaza gained a grim new dimension Thursday, as three American service members suffered "non-combat injuries" in the humanitarian relief operation off the Gaza coast, with one in critical condition. The military branch of the injured had not yet been disclosed as this story was written.  While the circumstances are still unclear, the most...

What Really Happened: Lockdown until Vaccination

What Really Happened: Lockdown until Vaccination

by | May 24, 2024 |

Four years later, many people are investigating how our lives were completely upended by a pandemic response. Over my time on the case, I’ve heard countless theories. It was Big Tech, Big Pharma, Big Finance, the Green New Deal, the CCP, Depopulation, Get Trump, Mail-In Ballots, and so on.  There is evidence to back them all.  The problem with having so many pieces of evidence and so many theories is that people can too easily get thrown off track, going on wild goose chases. It’s...

What Israel Is Doing to Gaza Is a Choice

by | May 24, 2024 |

Anyone who has voiced opposition to what the government of Israel is currently doing in Gaza has undoubtedly heard the various ways Israel’s defenders excuse, dismiss, and justify Israel’s actions. Sometimes you’ll hear that the Israel Defense Force (IDF) is doing everything in its power—more than any other military in history—to avoid hurting civilians and that Hamas is responsible for any innocents who get killed because they are using them as human shields. Other times you’ll be told that...
