The Sword Swings Over Soros

The Sword Swings Over Soros

by | Sep 6, 2025 |

Last week, US President Donald Trump wrote on his social media page that George Soros and his "radical leftist son," Alexander Soros, should be indicted under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) because they support organizations that incite violent protests and riots through the Open Society Foundations (OSF) in the United States. The American president said, “Soros and his group of psychopaths have caused enormous damage ” to the...

The Big Con

The Big Con

by | Sep 5, 2025 |

According to a report by the estimable Kelley Vlahos, this year’s National Conservatism conference in Washington, DC came replete with fireworks—of the figurative variety. In a debate moderated by Modern Age editor Dan McCarthy, American Conservative editor Curt Mills faced off with Northeastern University scholar Max Abrahms over Israel. Abrahms touted the alleged success of the US attacks on Iran and deemed those whom he called “MAGA isolationists realists” as “insane.” Mills parried by...

Making Palestinians Go Away

Making Palestinians Go Away

by | Sep 5, 2025 |

Donald Trump, recently sporting his red ballcap modestly featuring the words “Trump Was Right About Everything,” is apparently in regular contact with Israel’s genocidal Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Per Netanyahu, the most recent telephonic exchange had Trump expressing full support for the establishment of control over all of Gaza and the West Bank by the Israeli Army. Trump observed that Israel has been losing the “PR” (Public Relations) war over the carnage and must push...

Trump’s Drug-War Murders in the Caribbean

Trump’s Drug-War Murders in the Caribbean

by | Sep 5, 2025 |

Apparently taking a page out of former Philippine president Rodrigo Duterte’s drug-war playbook, President Trump is taking credit for the intentional military killings of eleven people in international waters near Venezuela. Duterte is on trial right now before the International Criminal Court for allegedly ordering his drug-war goons to kill accused drug-war offenders on sight — that is, without arrest, prosecution, trial, and due process of law. That’s what Trump just did. He ordered his...

Major conservative split over Israel spills out into the open at NatCon

Major conservative split over Israel spills out into the open at NatCon

by | Sep 4, 2025 |

Don’t look now but the foreign policy divisions among the conservatives gathered at the annual National Conservatism conference are no longer contained. Today they finally spilled out, like gushing hot lava or whatever metaphor is best, all over Breakout Session B. Fascinatingly it wasn’t over the Ukraine War, or China, but over Israel. For many realists and restrainers who include themselves in this annual event — dominated by New Right conservatives who are a bit...

The Feds Defend Their Tortures Again

The Feds Defend Their Tortures Again

by | Sep 4, 2025 |

While the public’s attention this summer has been drawn to masked ICE agents arresting folks without warrants, presidentially imposed sales taxes on goods emanating from foreign countries that have been invalidated by three federal courts, and the fruitless Kabuki dance between President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin in Anchorage, Alaska, last month, the federal government continues its slow assault on the Constitution at the U.S. Naval Base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. In...

Israel’s ‘New, Violent Zionism’ as a Harbinger of Imperial Geo-politics of Submission and Obedience

Israel’s ‘New, Violent Zionism’ as a Harbinger of Imperial Geo-politics of Submission and Obedience

by | Sep 3, 2025 |

Israel’s strategy from past decades continues to rest on the hope of achieving some literal Chimeric transformative “de-radicalisation” of both Palestinians and of the Region, writ large – a de-radicalisation that will make “Israel safe,” This has been the “holy grail” objective for Zionists since Israel was first founded. The code word for this chimaera today is the “Abraham Accords,” Ron Dermer, Netanyahu’s Strategic Affairs Minister, former Israeli Ambassador to Washington and key Trump...

A Police State Presidency: When ‘Rule of Law’ Becomes ‘Rule by Gunpoint

A Police State Presidency: When ‘Rule of Law’ Becomes ‘Rule by Gunpoint

by | Sep 3, 2025 |

Donald Trump has always been a master of imagery. From his red MAGA hats to his choreographed rallies, he understands the language of spectacle. Now he has discovered the perfect propaganda machine: AI-generated images. AI allows the creation of endless variations of Trump-as-warrior, Trump-as-enforcer, Trump-as-savior. These images spread across social media, replicated, remixed, and shared until they become familiar, even normalized. The latest AI-generated images of Trump,...

Department of War?

Department of War?

by | Sep 2, 2025 |

Last week President Trump took steps to re-name the Department of Defense the “Department of War.” The President explained his rationale for the name change: “It used to be called the Department of War and it had a stronger sound. We want defense, but we want offense too ... As Department of War we won everything…and I think we…have to go back to that." At first it sounds like a terrible idea. A “Department of War” may well make war more likely – the “stronger sound” may embolden the US...

Israel And The West Set The Stage For Next Round Of Warfare On Iran

Israel And The West Set The Stage For Next Round Of Warfare On Iran

by | Sep 2, 2025 |

Peace-loving people throughout the world breathed a sigh of relief when the Israeli-American war on Iran ended in June after 12 days, with President Trump racing to triumphantly declare US strikes had “obliterated” Iran’s nuclear program. While his rhetoric suggested he wanted Israel and the world to view the US bombing as a lasting resolution of accusations that Iran was pursuing nuclear weapons, Israel and its Western collaborators are already setting the stage for new aggression against...

Von der Leyen Is Lying About Russian GPS Interference

Von der Leyen Is Lying About Russian GPS Interference

by | Sep 2, 2025 |

There is reason why the name of the President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen is often mangled into von der Lying. She is notoriously negligent with facts. Here she is caught outright lying to spread fake anti-Russian propaganda. When I read the headline below, first published by the Financial Times, I immediately thought that something was very wrong with it. Ursula von der Leyen’s plane hit by suspected Russian GPS interference (archived) - FT, Sep 1 2025 A...

They’re Lying About Venezuela While Moving War Machinery Into Place

by | Sep 1, 2025 |

As if we didn’t have enough ugliness in the world right now, Trump has deployed warships near Venezuela’s coast, prompting Caracas to ready drone and naval patrols for conflict. In an article titled “Inside Trump’s gunboat diplomacy with Venezuela,” Axios’ Marc Caputo writes that “The U.S. has never been closer to armed conflict with Venezuela, with a fully loaded U.S. flotilla sitting off its coast and dictator Nicolás Maduro living under a $50 million bounty.” “President Trump...

How ‘Human Rights’ Became Western Weapon

How ‘Human Rights’ Became Western Weapon

by | Sep 1, 2025 |

August 1st marked the 50th anniversary of the Helsinki Accords’ inking. The event’s golden jubilee passed without much in the way of mainstream comment, or recognition. Yet, the date was absolutely seismic, its destructive consequences reverberating today throughout Europe and beyond. The Accords not only signed the death warrants of the Soviet Union, Warsaw Pact, and Yugoslavia years later, but created a new global dynamic, in which “human rights” - specifically, a Western-centric...

Why On Earth is the Ukraine War Still Going Strong?

Why On Earth is the Ukraine War Still Going Strong?

by | Sep 1, 2025 |

It seems like so little changes in the Ukraine conflict, many commentators and writers just keep repeating themselves a thousand times in the last few years. That is not to say that reputable and trustworthy ones haven't said things that were true, perhaps getting some predictions wrong in the process (it is never advisable to make precise predictions), but here is the other side of the factual coin. Even with the very minor current Russian advances into the edges of new oblasts, the battle...
