DMITRY ORLOV—Russia has demanded that both the US and NATO put their refusal to agree to the security guarantees in writing; these pieces of paper will be important moving forward. To understand why, we need to take on board the fact that everything within these security guarantees has already been agreed to by the West; namely, the “not an inch to the east” guarantee given to the Russians by the US 30 years ago and the collective security principle agreed to by all members of the OSCE. By signing a document in which they declare their refusal to abide by what they previously agreed to, the US and NATO would essentially declare themselves to be apostates from international law and order. This, in turn, would imply that their own security needs can be disregarded and that instead they deserve to be humiliated and punished.

Jimmy Dore: FBI WON’T SAY If Agents Were Involved In Jan. 6
11 minutes readWe are not exactly fans of Sens. Ted Cruz or Tom Cotton, but credit where credit is due: they bring up cogent questions that need to be asked in the midst of a naked fabrication to inflate the events of Jan. 6 into something like 9/11 or Pearl Harbor (or worse, as some Democrats continue to bay), in order to tighten the repression noose around America’s citizens. In our second featured video (below) Jimmy continues his exposure of Big Pharma’s —led by Pfizer—nefarious influence on US affairs, starting with its outrageous stranglehold on media and public policy over matters of enormous importance, such as healthcare policy.
