The US really does not seem to want to even think about how much this narrative of “US as satanic, terroristic world bully” resonates with the entire third world, most of the second, and a lot of the first. The world has become like a children’s story where the villain can’t grasp the fact that...

What has just taken place in Moscow is nothing less than a new Yalta, which, incidentally, is in Crimea. But unlike the momentous meeting of US President Franklin Roosevelt, Soviet Leader Joseph Stalin, and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill in USSR-run Crimea in 1945, this is the first time in arguably five centuries that no...

So, the past few years of America’s dark descent have come down to this? After the manufactured hysteria and authoritarian power grabs of COVID, after the fraudulent presidential election of 2020, amid the continuing persecution of hundreds of January 6 protestors, and amid the continuing censorship, warmongering, political and financial corruption, racial and gender obsessions,...

Sometimes I think that the script being used by the Biden Administration to manage its foreign and national security policies has been written by George Orwell, though I am not sure if it based on 1984 or Animal Farm.

Ironic as it may seem, the above-mentioned Texas proposal might as well be a manna-from-heaven to Jewish Power because the discussion could easily be construed as a matter of "Holocaust Did Happen" vs "Holocaust Didn't Happen", with hardly any light in between.

Progressives may be eager to see former President Donald Trump potentially fingerprinted and told he has the right to remain silent. But let's be clear — no one knows how the possible criminal charges against Trump will play out politically.
