AI IMAGE OF WAR - IMAGE: NIGHTCAFE

May 8 in the West, and May 9 in Russia, marks the anniversary of the victory over fascism in Europe in World War II.

Have you ever been inside what they call a “fun house” at the state fair? You go inside, and the floor is slanted. The mirrors are wavy, balls appear to be rolling uphill, and you lose your bearings. This is the propaganda-induced psychological warfare being deployed, particularly against the American people but also anyone who […]

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio stood before the Munich Security Conference on February 13th and delivered what was meant to be a stirring defense of Western Civilization. It was the European continent, he declared, “that produced the genius of Mozart and Beethoven, of Dante and Shakespeare, of Michelangelo and Da Vinci, of the Beatles and […]

IN THE THROES OF A PROFOUND STRATEGIC CHANGE

Scarcely six weeks into 2026, a profound shift in the global military-strategic situation is fully underway and is being openly discussed as such in Washington, Moscow, and other world capitals.

DONALD TRUMP’S DEPICTION OF OBAMAS AS APES SHOULD NOT SURPRISE

OBAMA AND TRUMP - Lazaro Gamio / Axios

No wonder the centre of gravity of the revolving door in which elected American presidents, including Barack Obama, to come in and out with each allocated their share of momentous contributions to endless wars to sustain – and to effect regime change – is called the White House. To do as America says and not […]

SOUTH AFRICA DRAWS THE LINE WITH ISRAEL

ISRAEL - SOUTH AFRICA

South Africa’s decision to declare Israel’s Chargé d’Affaires, Ariel Seidman, persona non grata is not just a diplomatic slap on the wrist. It is a calculated way for South Africa to assert sovereignty. And this is a warning shot fired across the bow of a relationship that has been deteriorating in plain sight. In the […]

THE ELEPHANT IS STILL IN THE ROOM

Every day brings a new headline seemingly designed to jolt the public into a state of permanent alarm: ICE shootings and new discussions with Minnesota officials, the USA’s “big armada” parked off Iran, a self-anointed American regency over Gaza, and a homely form of totalitarianism that could be called “apple pie fascism.” The tumult is real. But it […]

Some people believe that because they have billions of dollars or positions of power, they can speak nonsensical schemes into being. Some recent examples follow: Many of these rich fools gathered in Davos, Switzerland for the World Economic Forum, presided over by its interim co-chair, BlackRock CEO Larry Fink, who is selling shares in Ukraine […]

THE LAROUCHE DOCTRINE: IMPLEMENT IT NOW, BEFORE ITS TOO LATE

“The political foundation for durable peace must be: a) The unconditional sovereignty of each and all nation-states, and b) Cooperation among sovereign nation-states to the effect of promoting unlimited opportunities to participate in the benefits of technological progress, to the mutual benefit of each and all. “The most crucial feature of present implementation of such […]

GAZA WAR FOREIGN AID BANNED -APTOPIX_Israel_Palestinians_Gaza_80062

Spare a thought for the Palestinian people in 2026. The anti-Palestine dice is so heavily loaded against them that one shudders to think if there can be any worse form of catastrophe the Palestinians have never known. In 2025, we witnessed what appeared like a surge in the countries undertaking to officially recognize Palestinian statehood. […]

BEFORE THE DOOR CLOSES

The world, as Helga Zepp-LaRouche warned, is “hanging between hope and disaster,” and the outcome depends on whether action replaces inertia. There are openings. The continued dialogue between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin, described by both sides as productive, marks a meaningful path forward toward ending the conflict playing out in Ukraine. Alongside diplomatic movement forward […]

THERE IS NO PARTIAL SOLUTION: WE MUST – AND CAN – CHANGE THE ENTIRE SYSTEM

“NATO has definitely outlived its legitimacy. We must urgently replace it with a new security and development architecture which this time must take into account the security and development interests of every single country on the planet,” Helga Zepp-LaRouche told an international gathering of youth on Sunday, December 14. “I think that is absolutely the only way […]
