RON UNZ—One year ago tomorrow a series of massive underwater explosions destroyed most of the $30 billion Russian-German Nord Stream Pipelines, probably Europe’s most important civilian energy infrastructure. All observers soon agreed that the blasts had been deliberate, likely constituting the greatest case of industrial terrorism in world history and an obvious act of war against Germany, NATO’s leading European member. And then in lock-step, nearly all Western media outlets declared that the Russians had destroyed their own pipelines, an action further demonstrating the dangerous insanity of President Vladimir Putin, our diabolical Moscow adversary. Only a handful of voices on the dissident fringe suggested otherwise.

Vanessa Beeley Interview – Revival Of “Syrian Revolution” Regime Change Lie & Its Ties To Ukraine
17 minutes readTHE LAST AMERICAN VAGABOND—Joining me today is Vanessa Beeley, here to discuss what appears to be the West’s revitalization of the “Syrian Revolution” or “Syrian civil war” fabrication. This has always been a war of aggression, an invasion with the primary objective of regime change to better suit the interests of the western governments. As the 2024 election looms, and the US proxy war in Ukraine fails to achieve its goals, Vanessa and I discuss what the different motivations of such a clumsy shift in policy might be, and the many very telling overlaps and outright connections to the Ukraine agenda itself.

E.J. CURTIN—Nothing could be truer. When in 2014 the U.S. engineered the coup in Ukraine (coups being an American specialty), it allied itself with neo-Nazi forces to oppose Russia. This alliance should have shocked no one; it is the American way. Back in the 1980s when the U.S. was supporting death squads in Central America, Ronald Reagan told the world that “The Contras are the moral equivalent of the Founding Fathers.” Now the Ukrainian president Zelensky is feted as a great hero, Biden telling him in an Oval Office visit that “it’s an honor to be by your side.” Such alliances are not anomalies but the crude reality of U. S. history.
