"If we were to use traditional measures for understanding leaders, which involve the defense of borders and national flourishing, Putin would count as the preeminent statesman of our time. "On the world stage, who could vie with him?" So asks Chris Caldwell of the Weekly Standard in a remarkable essay in Hillsdale College’s March issue […]
“The wooden carts that residents use to carry vegetables and other wares in the once busy market area instead ferried out cadavers recovered from the rubble last week.” And so . . . another “precision” bomb strike in America’s war against terror. This was the scene in Mosul earlier this month, as reported by the […]
The “cyber-security” firm that everyone is depending on to make the case for Russia’s alleged “hacking” of the 2016 presidential election, CrowdStrike, has just retracted a key component of its analysis – but the “mainstream” media continues to chug along, ignoring any facts that contradict their preferred narrative. As Voice of America – hardly an […]

On this edition of The Realist Report, we’re joined by the one and only Carolyn Yeager. I have followed Carolyn’s work for several years, which has profoundly influenced my own personal views about Adolf Hitler, National Socialism, the fake “Holocaust” narrative and WWII more generally. Of course, Carolyn and I discuss all of these topics at length throughout this broadcast.
YouTube “suddenly” recommended me a type of videos that I have never seen before. They are called, “social videos about Russia.” I want to show you two of them
Moscow is confused, the US is confused – everybody seems to be when it comes to Turkey, who is with whom and what its next move will be. Anything you write about Turkey is old news by the time you get done with it, as they keep moving the goalposts in this game. As Victorian poet Matthew Arnold said, “Journalism is literature in a hurry” – but no matter which direction we go in, certain trends are clear and need to be addressed.
Last month not even Devin Nunes' own constituents knew who they hell he was. Today he's a household name-- in a bad way. He's in a league with Darrell Issa, Steve King, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Louie Gohmert... congressmembers who people have heard of... and detest. Or-- Draco Malfoy and Voldemort, Captain Barbossa, Hans Landa, the Green Goblin, Loki, Ras al Ghul, Doctor Octopus, Saruman, Negan and The Joker.

The New Silk Road project (the NSR) mapped out by China in 2013 envisaged the development of a network of land transport routes originating in China and interconnecting Eurasian countries, thus creating a single Eurasian economic space. A Maritime Silk Route is being developed within the framework of the NSR. Its mission is to connect Asia not only with Europe but also with Africa. The possibility of construction of a railway network on the African continent as part of the NSR is being currently considered.
Hours after US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said during a visit to Turkey that the fate of Syrian President Assad should be decided by the Syrian people – reversing the Obama administration’s demand that Assad must go as part of any Syrian peace settlement – Nikki Haley, the US’s ambassador to the UN, has confirmed that there has indeed been a change in US policy, and that the US is indeed no longer ‘focused’ on getting President Assad to go.

(ANTIMEDIA) Amid distractions from Trump’s Twitter account and the media’s concerns regarding whether or not he fully understands how NATO works, al-Qaeda has been busy in Syria over the past few weeks. According to the Guardian, fierce clashes broke out in the Syrian capital of Damascus on March 19, as “insurg
Interviewed Wednesday at Fox Business by host Kennedy, libertarian communicator and three-time presidential candidate Ron Paul praised former President Barack Obama for placing some restraints on the United States government transferring military weapons to local police and criticized the potential action by President Donald Trump to resume the full flow of military weapons.
Libya was once the richest state in Africa but since NATO’s war on Libya in 2011, it has been the world’s most resource rich failed state.
Libya currently has two bodies which each claim to be the country’s legitimate government. First of all there is the General National Congress in Tripoli and then there is the government in Tobruk, near the Egyptian border. The Council of Deputies in Tobruk is generally considered the more moderate of the two.
This morning we looked at a new bill introduced this week by Ro Khanna and Beto O'Rourke that would end the pervasive influence of PACs on Congress. It's another example of how Democrats are getting behind Bernie Sanders' most salient ideas. Ro Khanna endorsed Bernie during the 2016 cycle and Beto O'Rourke had endorsed Hillary.

(ANTIMEDIA) Cleveland, OH — Many of us may be familiar with paralysis in our nightmares — the sensation of being gripped by an unseen force while all the muscles in the body cease to work. For some, paralysis is not a mere dream, but rather their daily lives. Throughout history, innovators have developed new and improved tools and technology to assist the paralyzed. However, none of these tools are quite like the most recent one.

Back in the 1950’s, a British professor at the distinguished University of Malaya, C. Northcote Parkinson, observed that as the post-war Royal Navy shrank in size, its bureaucracy continued to expand.
Right now, Donald Trump could start a nuclear war on a whim, and no one could stop him.
Under any circumstances, the prospect of nuclear war is terrifying, the deadly consequences irreversible. Yet with a single order, the president – any president – could effectively declare a nuclear war that would wipe out entire nations, including our own.
RT | March 30, 2017 Washington’s priorities in Syria have changed with the new administration, and the US will no longer focus on the removal of President Bashar Assad as a condition for ending the six-year civil war, a top official said. “Our priority is no longer to sit there and focus on getting Assad […]

According to London’s counter-terrorism unit, Khalid Masood the man named in the Westminster Bridge and Parliament Square attacks has no ties to terror and “no extremist tendencies.”
QUESTION: If the English teaching Masood didn’t have ties to ISIS or al-Qaeda and wasn’t believed to have extremist tendencies – then why did British security services take a keen interest in him as they had previously declared?
(ANTIMEDIA) Turkey has built a reputation as the model for secular and stable government in the Middle East. It is the only Muslim-majority country in the NATO alliance and was inducted along with Greece back in 1952. One of the goals was to create a political bridge between Western and Arab nations that could improve relations in the region.
With Russiagate seemingly hitting a brick-wall, the damage to the confidence people have in America’s electoral system and to its reputation abroad, may far outlast this conspiracy theory driven pseudo-scandal.
