WORLD WAR 111 ‘IN PIECES’ OR NEW ARCHITECTURE IN EARNEST
Like a drunken Pete Hegseth stumbling back from a post-football game frat party, the world lurched, almost uncontrollably, toward a new and dangerous phase this week.

ZELENSKY’S LATEST DUMPING OF MINISTERS CREATES TURMOIL
The acting president of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, kicked off this week with his ritualistic “reshuffling” of the government.

THE SPARK OF REASON OR THE SPARK OF WAR? WAR MADNESS THREATENS THE FATE OF THE GLOBAL ECONOMY
With the return of fighting between the United States and Iran, and the seeming collapse of any prospect of negotiations, the world has come again to the edge of the abyss. “We currently have no plans for negotiations and are focused on defense,” Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei said July 15.

LUXEMBOURG PREPARES FOR WAR
The bizarre case of Luxembourg adds a grotesque note to the NATO rearmament drive.

Luxembourg is a tiny […]

NOT BABEL, BUT THE BEAUTIFUL CITY
If the United States ceases to exist, perhaps in a thermonuclear mushroom cloud generated by one or another NATO-instigated conflict, it will not be because of any aggression against it, or its trans-Atlantic “allies.” The United States will cease to exist, because it chose to stop existing. It chose to dress itself in the trappings […]
