SEARCHLIGHT: The World on the Brink of War / A Roundup of Insightful Commentary →

MoA, so far, provides the most comprehensive and impressive overview of this entire sordid affair, so if you want to learn all the pertinent facts, which are, indeed, sensational, as befits an act liable to go down in history as a turning point, pay a visit. Nothing like this is liable to appear now or in the near future in the whore Western mainstream press, busily selling you cynical US disinformation. Read more…
The US Empire Is Accelerating Toward Global Conflict On Two Fronts →

CAITLIN JOHNSTONE—“In the last 50 days, the executive and legislative branches in Washington have done more than in the last 50 years to convince China that America’s imperial policy is simply relentless, and must be met with force,” Corbley writes. “That’s not to say it’s by any means a given that the People’s Republic of China will invade its cross-straits neighbor of Taiwan, but that is to say that if strategic planners in Washington sat down and created a bulleted list of how to facilitate such an invasion, they would have probably gone through all the bullets by now.” Read more…
By Gonzalo Lira (Coach Red Pill): Who Is Zelensky? A Puppet Of Jewish Oligarch Ihor Valeriyovych Kolomoyskyi →

EDITOR—The State Dept. was apparently forced to ban Ihor Kolomoyskyy from America's shores, since the man is so outrageously corrupt he even gives a bad name to Ukraine, which Washington is trying to sell as an exemplary democracy. A State Department press release signed by ANTONY J. BLINKEN, SECRETARY OF STATE, and dated March 5, 2021, confirms it. So Lira is certainly not blowing bubbles here. Read more…
Empire of Lies Christens the New World Order. Part I of II: Overthrow Russia →

RON RIDENOUR—In October, soldiers and civilians demonstrated and collided on the streets. Pro-Yeltsin demonstrators removed police cordons around the parliament, took over the mayor’s offices and tried to storm the Ostankino television center. Initially, most of the army declared neutrality. Some backed the parliament, but most generals did not want to take chances. On the morning of October 4, under Yeltsin’s orders, generals instructed soldiers to storm the Supreme Soviet building. By noon, troops occupied the White House, and arrested the leaders of the legal resistance. The “second October Revolution”, as some called it, was much more deadly than in October 1917. According to government estimates, 187 people were killed and 437 wounded. Non-governmental sources put the death toll as high as 2,000. Many of the deaths, including legislators, occurred when Yeltsin ordered the parliament bombed. Read more…
Establishment smear merchants The Daily Beast, Rolling Stone and their perceptible intelligence ties →

Somehow, the powers that run The Daily Beast decided to recruit, as its editor-in-chief, this oddball with his admiration for covert activities, electronic surveillance, killer drones, high-tech weaponry, celebrity generals and cloak-and-dagger cyber ops. Before long, the news site was receiving acclaim for breaking key stories that supported the CIA’s pet narratives, including Russia’s involvement with planting “fake news” during the 2016 election process.

Chris Hedges: Monarchs Belong in the Dustbin of History →

CHRIS HEDGES—Monarchy obscures the crimes of empire and wraps them in nostalgia. It exalts white supremacy and racial hierarchy. It justifies class rule. It buttresses an economic and social system that callously discards and often consigns to death those considered the lesser breeds, most of whom are people of color. The queen’s husband Prince Phillip, who died in 2021, was notorious for making racist and sexist remarks, politely explained away in the British press as “gaffes.” He described Beijing, for example, as “ghastly” during a 1986 visit and told British students: “If you stay here much longer you’ll all be slitty-eyed.” Read more…
U.S. imperialism: Reflections from a Ukrainian mirror →

TIM BEAL—The central role of the United States in international affairs must be unearthed and analyzed. Nothing much of consequence happens in the world without U.S. involvement. At the same time, that involvement is hidden, and the U.S. empire’s role obscured or distorted by its huge and largely successful propaganda apparatus. The ongoing Ukraine crisis is a salient example. The root cause is NATO expansion driven by the U.S. as an instrument of its strategy to disempower Russia. The other major players—Russia, Ukraine and the European countries—are subsidiary, and, whether wisely or not, reacting to U.S. grand policy. Needless to say, this is not the way it is portrayed by the United States. Read more…
Caity Johnstone’s Truth Bombs on Ukraine: Absolutely Must read. →

CAITLIN JOHNSTONE—Empire apologists get upset when you talk about the fact that this war was provoked because a large amount of empire apologia in 2022 is built around pretending that provocation just isn’t a thing. By some trick of Orwellian doublethink, this concept we’ve all lived our entire lives knowing about and understanding is now suddenly a freakish and ridiculous invention of the Kremlin. Read more…
Why Russia Invaded Ukraine →

ERIC ZUESSE—The Western press alleges that Russia invaded Ukraine because of Putin, and that his motive was Russian imperialism, a desire to expand Russia’s territory. In fact, Finland and Sweden responded immediately to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine by seeking membership in NATO, out of fear that “we might be next” to be invaded. However, expansion of Russia was not involved in Putin’s motivation regarding Ukraine, but the fact that Ukraine has the border that is the nearest of any bordering nation to Moscow, being only 353 miles away from Moscow, which would be around five minutes of missile-flying distance away from possibly nuking Russia’s command-center, was very much on his mind.

THE AMERICAN CENTURY IS OVER BECAUSE… →

ERIC ZUESSE—The latest (2021) YouGov global poll of the “Worlds’s Most Admired” individuals shows Barack Obama as being #1, and as being way ahead of #2, who is his wife, Michelle. There is no question that he has been a huge success. But his biggest success was his conquest of Ukraine, in 2014. Because that conquest ended up ultimately producing, on 24 February 2022, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, in order to block the U.S. regime’s plan to place America’s nuclear missiles only five minutes of missile-flying time away from being able to obliterate Moscow. Obama’s terrific success [all high war crimes], in grabbing Ukraine, produced ultimately Russia’s invasion of Ukraine this February. Read more…

The Assassination and Mrs. Paine →

ED CURTIN—The film will be an eye-opener for anyone unfamiliar with Mrs. Ruth Paine’s fundamental role at the heart of the president’s murder; and for those knowledgeable about her, it will be greeted as an important contribution to the case. I believe it is not just a must-watch for those interested in JFK’s assassination, which is the key to all subsequent American history, but for anyone trying to unravel today’s tapestry of lies and propaganda spewing out from the mainstream media (MSM) that go by different names – CBS, ABC, the Washington Post, etc. – but all of whom speak for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). The basic equation is: CIA = MSM. Read more…
