ERIC ZUESSE—Earlier this week, independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. once again waved the warning flag on this pending cataclysm, posting: “The situation in Ukraine is on the brink of calamitous escalation. Do the military imperialists in Washington and their lackeys in Europe have any idea the danger they are courting? They are conducting foreign policy as if it were a game of ‘chicken.’”

EDITOR—Garland dives deep to explore the nature of Ukraine and the Ukraine War (“the Ukraine Project”, as US neocons call it). For starters, Garland affirms that Ukraine is not so much a nation, let alone an independent, sovereign nation, as Western propaganda claims, as a tool of the West to harm and irritate Russia so as to provoke the conditions for social turmoil that could usher in the overthrow of Vladimir Putin. Ukraine is not making the critical war decisions, notes Garland, and this is especially true for the deployment and use of advanced weapons, whose use is decided and implemented entirely by NATO.
The ultimate end is to remove Russia as a great, peer power blocking US global domination, and the same goes for China and other powers such as Iran, Brazil, and others that may aspire to independent action and sovereign multilateralism. The strategy being used by the West is constant terrorism and war. Having lost the war in Ukraine, a huge humiliation, the West is clearly engaged in a campaign of indefinite terrorism inside the Russian Federation and its BRICS allies. In this effort, the West relies on numerous “assets” cynically created over the years, chiefly ISIS, al-Qaeda and other extreme jihadists.

INDRAJIT—(quote)—People are surprised, they become indignant. They say: “How strange! But never mind–it’s Nazism, it will pass!” And they wait, and they hope; and they hide the truth from themselves, that it is barbarism, the supreme barbarism, the crowning barbarism that sums up all the daily barbarisms; that it is Nazism, yes, but that before they were its victims, they were its accomplices; that they tolerated that Nazism before it was inflicted on them, that they absolved it, shut their eyes to it, legitimized it, because, until then, it had been applied only to non-European peoples; that they have cultivated that Nazism, that they are responsible for it, and that before engulfing the whole edifice of Western, Christian civilization in its reddened waters, it oozes, seeps, and trickles from every crack.

As Israel completes its extermination of the 2.3 million Gazans, latest poll finds overwhelming support for it by Israel’s religious Jews.
by eric zuesse16 minutes readERIC ZUESSE—[Quoting}—The United States is now the only Government that continues to donate weapons to Israel’s Government. The extermination-program is being carried out by the troops, who come from Israel, and by the bombs, bullets, tanks, and planes, which come from America. Though U.S. President Biden has recently threatened to stop supplying this equipment, it still hasn’t happened; and a retired Israeli general said “All of our missiles, the ammunition, the precision-guided bombs, all the airplanes and bombs, it’s all from the U.S. The minute they turn off the tap, you can’t keep fighting. You have no capability. … Everyone understands that we can’t fight this war without the United States. Period.”

ERIC ZUESSE—n May 11th, CNN published a harrowing report based on satellite photos, courageous Israeli whistleblowers, and some surviving Gazans, describing various forms of torture by Israel’s Government, against captured Gazans. Since the report was badly written and edited, it failed to say anything about why they had been selected for torture, but, even if all of them were from the 20 thousand or so members of the strictly Palestinian organization Hamas (though some of these torture-victims were doctors from Indonesia and other Muslim countries and were otherwise not credible to have been members of Hamas), Israel here is committing international-war crimes.

BILLY BOB— If the elites are “communist” why is communism so demonized by the power structures of the West?
So this is where the narrative pivots and does its best to pander to the inculcated ignorance of its intended victims. By redefining “communism” as, “everything that conservatives oppose”. There are truly no limit to the “evils” which conservatives are happy to blame communism for. A lecture from one of the narrative’s top proponents, James Lindsay, is entitled “Maoism With American Characteristics”. In this lecture, Lindsay panders to American ignorance by claiming Mao was an agent of the elites and that American elites want to revisit the evils upon the American people that Mao visited upon the Chinese people.
