Well, that was bloody insane – all of it. But then we appear to be living in an insane asylum in which the inmates have taken control. If you ever needed a more perverse and overt expression of the incestousness nature of the Trump/Netanyahu relationship – and indeed of the Zionist/End-Timers fanaticism that I keep […]
It has of course been clear for a long time that the Trump presidency is very much in bed with the Netanyahu government in Israel. If it hadn’t already been obvious, the Jerusalem declaration very much confirmed it. Like the Jerusalem declaration, Trump’s abandonment of the JCPOA has also been largely condemned by traditional American […]
Am I the only one who can’t quite work out what happened last weekend in Syria or what it’s all supposed to mean? That is, I can’t work out what the US-UK-France Triumvirate (the same Triumvirate that led the intervention against Gaddafi in Libya) was trying to do when it decided to carry out strikes […]
The mess that’s been created in Syria is extraordinary. Syria is also definitively where international law died. Arguably, Iraq and Libya saw international law already collapsing: but Syria is where even all pretense of international law died. It is where borders, sovereignty and the right to self-determination got tossed out the window. It is also […]
There is a very serious problem with the resurgence of genuine anti-Semitism in different parts of the world, including in much of Europe. The Internet is playing a massive part in that – and it’s not just the modern Neo-Nazi groups (of which there are now many) that are espousing a viciously anti-Semitic world view, […]
With the fiftieth anniversary of the My Lai massacre, it freshly occured to me that the harrowing subject of My Lai actually also sheds some light on the reality of the decline in real journalism in the modern age. I would assert that you can track the decline in the integrity and purpose of mainstream […]
Just when you thought the massive, endless distraction/pantomime of Planet Trump couldn’t get any sillier, the President ditches his Secretary of State Rex Tillerson: and is replacing him with who? Oh, just the head of the CIA. What’s even dumber is that, given all of the mainstream media hysteria over alleged Trump ‘collusion’ with Russia, […]
In the sixth Star Trek film, The Undiscovered Country, Ambassador Spock tells Captain Kirk, “There’s an old Vulcan saying – only Nixon could go to China.” The line was supposed to be tongue-in-cheek, suggesting that Nixon going to China was so symbolically significant that it had even become a saying among an alien race centuries […]
And it is a pretty big rabbit-hole – based entirely on the location where this incident is said to have happened. Which we will get to in a moment; and then you can decide for yourselves how relevant you think it is or isn’t. But first, let’s just do the basics. In another month, I […]
This could actually be viewed as a follow-up to the post from a couple of weeks back on the Pentagon‘s ‘Nuclear Posture Review’ and the threat of another Hiroshima-like event in our lifetimes. In that instance, I was highlighting the insanity of what the NPR proposed and noting the very worrying change in language concerning […]
