How can you tell when a politician is lying? His lips are moving. That joke is apropos for the new English language video monologue that Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu released Thursday, and which Netanyahu said in his first words spoken is directed to the...
Iran and Russia are the two big losers in the ouster of Syria’s President Bashar al-Assad on Sunday by the Sunni Islamist groups affiliated to al-Qaeda. Assad fled in the nick of time after giving orders that there be a peaceful handover of power. The likelihood...
“Doomsters” is an occasional Russian expression used to categorise commentators that only see the “dark side to events” (a vice quite prevalent during the Soviet era). Marat Khairullin, a highly respected Russian military analyst, says, “Today, a network of mercenary...
“The Deep State whispered to Trump: “You cannot withstand the storm.” Trump whispered back: “I am the storm.” The war is on. The Deep State has launched a war of disruption to disable Trump’s “storm.” Last week’s ATACM strike was but one part to an inter-agency...
The fear in many nations’ capitals is that President Donald Trump’s return to Washington might make Israel feel more confident in attacking Iran. According to Mike Evans, founder of the Friends of Zion Museum in Jerusalem, “There is no world leader Trump...
One of the most encouraging and promising things President-elect Trump said in his post-election acceptance speech was, “I’m not going to start a war. I’m going to stop wars…” We all understand that campaign promises often have a short shelf life after the election is...
I believe that the FBI’s announcement on November 8 — three days after Trump’s victory — of an alleged Iranian plot to kill an Iranian American journalist was part of an intelligence information operation to manufacture a casus belli to attack Iran. I wrote...
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...
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...
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...
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...
espite my hope that Iran would “take a win” in repelling most of the Israeli cruise missiles launched on Saturday against Iranian military targets, it appears that Iran will hit back in the near future. I base that conclusion on these two recent statements from...
A senior US official told Washington Post that the toned-down early morning Israeli strike Saturday on military targets in Iran was a “proportional strike,” which “was moderate enough to quiet the conflict without provoking Iran into a counterattack.” However,...
Social media is lit up like Times Square on New Year’s Eve with reports that Israel, finally, delivered on its vow to attack Iran. And attack it did. Here is the video. Ok. I sent this to my brother-in-law and he asked, “Are you fu*king with me?” No, not really. Yes,...
When you take on the role of the world’s policeman, don’t be surprised when countries who cannot fight their own wars call “911.” That is exactly what is happening to the United States on two fronts and it is bankrupting our country, depleting the military that should...
It is often said foreign policy is rarely top of mind in American presidential elections. For the most part this is true, but not in this election. We have witnessed the intelligence community rally around candidate Harris and a significant number of voters protest...
John Kerry, just last week at the World Economic Forum, so clearly blurting out the truth: “Our First Amendment stands as a major block to our ability to be able to hammer [disinformation] out of existence.” Translated: Governing is all about narrative control. Kerry...
