What are Donald Trump’s positions?

Donald Trump continually denounced the American Empire, and announced the return to Republican principles. Elected for his promises to change the paradigm, President Donald Trump continues to astonish all those who take him for an idiot. Yet all he is doing is implementing the ideas that he developed during his electoral campaign, thus taking his place in a political tradition which, although long neglected, is solidly anchored in US ...Read full article...

No country in the world should turn into a Refugee Camp

Nations must take care of their own refugee population before opening their borders to foreigners. Based on the U.S. Census Bureau’s estimates, some 43 million Americans lived in poverty in 2016. About 14% in France live below the poverty line, according to numbers from 2016. Despite having economic growth, Germany´s poverty rate reached previously unseen levels of 15.7 percent of the population. In Canada, the 2016 census shows that at least 5 ...Read full article...

Trump to G7: I’ll let go when you do

Canada alone has over 300% tariffs on US products and Europe has a similar amount. The G-7 summit in the Canadian resort of La Malbaie has left at least two photos that serve as a metaphor to describe what seems to have happened inside. One of them is the handshake between Donald Trump and Emmanuel Macron, so hard on the part of the Frenchman that his thumb was marked ...Read full article...

Greedy World “leaders” can´t agree on Trade or anything else

In March 2014, G8 member states expelled Russia over nonexistent “aggression” in Ukraine, along with Crimea’s reunification with the Russian Federation, correcting a historic mistake. On Monday, Putin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said “this forum has been losing its importance because given the changing political and economic situation, other platforms, such as the G20, where Russia is an active member, have been becoming more important.” Last April, Kremlin envoy to ...Read full article...

The Democratic Era is approaching its End

Western democratic states have been dying for a long time. The European peoples whose governments were paid to sell out the sovereignty of their nations to the EU are experiencing great difficulties in being permitted to govern themselves. As the result of Italians’ frustration with the self-serving elite who have ruled Italy for decades, the recent democratic elections in Italy brought to power two anti-establishment political parties, Five-Star and ...Read full article...

Donald Trump: The Man and Stable Genius

Once upon a time, a Man descended from a set of stairs with a very important message for his fellow citizens. What he didn’t know was that his message would be almost completely ignored and that the few that were listening were going to laugh out loud on his face. What those who ignored and laughed at him didn’t understand was that he was serious about his message, that ...Read full article...

The Shame of Western Conspiratorial Nations Lying about Russia

There’s no reason whatever to accept accusations without evidence backing them. In the mid-to-late 1930s, during Hitler’s remilitarization and occupation of the Rhineland, along with seizing Czechoslovakia and Anschluss takeover of Austria, Britain sought to appease, not punish, him for serious criminal offenses. WW II followed. Contrast UK policy then to its deplorable treatment of Russia today – waging political and economic war along with Washington, based on fabricated ...Read full article...

John Bolton Represents Washington’s Lunatic Fringe

Appointing John Bolton as the National Security Advisor is like making a pyromaniac fire chief. Former Israeli IDF chief of staff/later defense minister Shaul Mofaz said he knows Bolton “from when he was the US ambassador to the UN. He tried to convince me that Israel needs to attack Iran.” Mofaz dismissed the idea as reckless unless an imminent threat emerges, nothing indicating one now – at the same ...Read full article...

There is only one Western foreign policy and it is that of Washington

I agree with Stephen Lendman that the Russian government’s efforts to deal with the West on the basis of evidence and law are futile. There is only one Western foreign policy and it is Washington’s. Washington’s “diplomacy” consists only of lies and force. It was a reasonable decision for Russia to attempt diplomatic engagement with the West on the basis of facts, evidence, and law, but it has been ...Read full article...

Amnesty International: Imperial Tool

AI fronts for power, concerned more about serving its funding sources and publicity than human rights. It’s reports on Syria are notably deplorable, a March 15 press release like earlier ones, turning truth on its head saying: “The international community’s catastrophic failure to take concrete action to protect the people of Syria has allowed parties to the conflict, most notably the Syrian government, to commit war crimes and crimes ...Read full article...

The New Putin Doctrine: “No one wanted to listen. So, listen now”

Vladimir Putin issued his first serious warning to western military powers and NATO in his State of the Nation address. Western hysteria followed his revelations of Russian military superiority over the West, its super-weapons unmatched by Washington and other NATO countries. “Nobody wanted to listen to us,” said Putin, adding: “So listen now.” Western media accused him of fostering an arms race, initiating Cold War 2.0. With all categories ...Read full article...

Fake News UN Report on North Korea and Syria

Is Antonio Guterres committed to exceeding the worst of his predecessors? The UN under Secretary-General Antonio Guterres and most of his predecessors operates as Washington’s imperial ally – flagrantly violating its Charter principles. An unreleased world body report, shared with the NYT, irresponsibly suggested North Korea may be helping Syria produce chemical weapons. Its entire CW stockpile was destroyed, elimination completed in late June 2014 – confirmed by the ...Read full article...

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres: US Imperial Tool

Like his predecessors, Guterres was appointed to serve US and other Western interests exclusively. His actions and public remarks speak for themselves, supporting what demands denunciation, breaching the mandate he swore to uphold as secretary-general. Days earlier, he addressed Security Council members on the Middle East. What he omitted from his remarks was far more important than what he said. On Iraq, nothing about Washington’s rape and destruction of ...Read full article...

The Robert Mueller’s Conspiracy Theory

As explained by Paul Craig Roberts, the Result of Mueller’s Investigation is NOTHING. Robert Mueller discredited himself and his orchestrated Russiagate investigation today (Friday, February 16, 2018) with his charges that 13 Russians and 3 Russian companies plotted to use social media to influence the 2016 election. Their intent, Mueller says, was to “sow discord in the US political system.” What pathetic results to come from a 9-month investigation! ...Read full article...

Google is the Largest Political Influencer in the United States

Google, remembered for its slogan “don’t be evil” was the one that spent the most in 2017 to try to influence politicians in the United States. Lobbying is not a crime, but it often comes too close to being such a thing. Exercising influence to achieve a goal is not wrong, but perhaps, looking at lobbying from that perspective is why people understand trafficking on political influence as being ...Read full article...
