ERIC ZUESSE—READ THE STUNNING DISARMAMENT PROPOSAL THE SOVIETS TENDERED AT THE END OF WW2
Who benefited from America’s refusal even to discuss what had been U.S. President FDR’s aim for the post-WW-II world? The beneficiaries are what Eisenhower when leaving office called the “military industrial complex,” and are basically America’s hundred largest military contractors, especially the owners of the largest weapons-manufacturing firms such as Lockheed.

In the same way that TikTok has undermined the Israeli Nation of Destiny project.

Through it all, he has never lost his lifelong wrath against US imperialism and global capitalism, while seeking social and economic justice for humanity’s 99%…”

by Don Hank49 minutes readDON HANK—According to Ukrainian media, after the latest Russian strikes in Kharkov and nearby areas, almost half a million subscribers lost power. The Kharkov administration is talking about a possible complete blackout in some areas of the city, given the emerging crisis situation. The operation of electric transport in the city has been stopped.
As Ukrainian Prime Minister Denis Shmygal said in an interview with Estonian television, there are now practically no entire thermal power plants left in Ukraine.
“80% of Ukrainian thermal power plants were destroyed. Russia continues to attack our energy facilities, destroying transformers and generators,” said the Ukrainian minister.
