Trump to Netanyahu: "You’re Fucking Crazy", by Jonas E. Alexis

2 June 2026 at 05:00
It has long been a common observation that many U.S. presidents have had difficult relationships with Benjamin Netanyahu. Of course, American presidents often say publicly that the alliance between the United States and Israel is strong and unbreakable. However, in private, some have reportedly found Netanyahu difficult to work with. For example, when Bill Clinton...

Is It Time for Russia to Escalate?, by Hua Bin

2 June 2026 at 05:00
In May 2026, the global geopolitical landscape has been redefined by two divergent philosophies of violence. On one hand, the Russian Federation continues its slow-motion, attritional grind in Ukraine—a conflict defined by a cautious management of Western “red lines.” President Putin runs it a “special military operation”, essentially a “limited war”. On the other, Israel...

EU Imperialism Rising After Hungarian Coup, by Kit Klarenberg

2 June 2026 at 05:00
On April 12th, a political earthquake in Hungary upended 16 years of continuous rule by Viktor Orban. It was a period characterised by ever-mounting and fractious confrontation between Budapest and the European Commission, the EU’s executive body. Now, Orban’s exit has removed a major barrier to EU federalisation, and militarisation. Brussels’ fingerprints are plastered all...

Thousands of New Yorkers Just Attended A Nazi Parade for Israel, and Other Notes, by Caitlin Johnstone

2 June 2026 at 05:00
Multiple far right Israeli ministers attended New York City’s Israel Day Parade on Sunday, including Israel’s genocidal finance minister Bezalel Smotrich. Smotrich is ideologically not significantly different from a Nazi. Which means New York City just hosted a Nazi parade that was attended by thousands of people. New York officials are acting shocked and appalled...

American Pravda: Looming Market Crashes, by Ron Unz

1 June 2026 at 05:10
I launched my American Pravda series a decade ago next month. My conscious strategy was quite unusual, being almost exactly the opposite of that followed by nearly everyone else covering those same controversial topics. As some of them explicitly told me, they had always deliberately avoided exploring too many different and unrelated historical controversies. Instead,...

I Hope Someone Besides Me Cares About the Facts., by Paul Craig Roberts

1 June 2026 at 05:00
Responsible Statecraft reported that Israel is paying a cohort of 14-18 social media influencers an estimated $7,000 per posted article through a firm called Bridges Partners for defending Israel’s war crimes and demonizing alleged “anti-semites” for reporting them. The filing, disclosed under the Foreign Agents Registration Act, indicated that Israel pays these influencers as part...

The AI Revolution: Where Capitalism Meets Socialism: The Abundance Paradigm, Part 2, by Ellen Brown

1 June 2026 at 05:00
Part 1 of this “Abundance Paradigm” series discussed predictions that artificial intelligence and robotics will in the relatively near future produce an economy of extraordinary abundance – one in which most labor is automated. The contention of Elon Musk is that this development will require some form of government-issued “Universal High Income” (UHI) to provide...

Iran: The Art of Controlling Escalation Dominance, by Pepe Escobar

1 June 2026 at 05:00
Iran’s response to the American provocation made it crystal clear that the current incarnation of the proposed 60-day ceasefire framework does not hold. MOSCOW – Iran holds an insurmountable escalation dominance in contrast with the U.S. And that’s driving the vociferating Emperor of Barbaria absolutely nuts. Let’s quickly recap the highlights of the past week....

Iran War Effect Marks the Resetting of World Geo-Politics, by Alastair Crooke

1 June 2026 at 05:00
Beijing can fund itself cheaply and almost indefinitely – and thus can outlast the U.S. grand strategy to contain China. Seemingly, every day brings breathless new claims that an U.S.-Iran ‘deal’ awaits only a signature. As so often happens, the mediators (Pakistanis and Qataris) hope to manage both sides by telling one side that the...

The Federal Reserve Is Why the People Are Unhappy, by Ron Paul

1 June 2026 at 05:00
According to the University of Michigan’s latest Index of Consumer Sentiment, a record number of Americans have negative views of the economy. This is yet more evidence that the American people are dissatisfied with their economic condition. Some commentators have claimed to be perplexed by the people’s negative views of the economy since government statistics...

David Attrites Goliath, by Kevin Barrett

1 June 2026 at 05:00
Most wars are in some sense wars of attrition. Both sides endure losses, get worn down, and reach the point that one of them loses the will or ability to keep fighting. The loser then accepts the winner’s terms. Alternately, both sides can grow exhausted and settle for less than victory. Normally wars of attrition...

1975 – the Mosley Remigration Interview on Thames TV, by Francis Goumain

31 May 2026 at 05:10
Back in 1975, they didn’t say “Remigration,” but “Repatriation.” For today’s viewer, this is perhaps the only interesting point that saves an otherwise rather lackluster video: even fifty years ago, people were talking about remigration, about return, and about encouraging return. And the exact opposite happened; migration flows to Western countries increased, as did miscegenation....

The Israelization of the United States Military Is Proceeding, by Philip Giraldi

31 May 2026 at 05:05
Few Americans know the history of how Israel’s “wag the dog” relationship with the United States developed. Israel’s 1967 successful war against its neighbors demonstrated to military planners in Washington how a qualitative edge in weapons could enable a small country to resist much larger and seemingly more powerful adversaries. Israel was largely supplied with...

Israel’s Secret Bases in Iraq: A New Phase of Shadow Warfare in the Middle East, by J. Ricardo Martins

31 May 2026 at 05:00
The revelation that Israel established secret military bases inside Iraq during the recent war against Iran is far more than another episode in the region’s long history of covert operations. It signals a deeper transformation in Middle Eastern geopolitics: the normalization of clandestine cross-border military infrastructures, the erosion of Iraqi sovereignty, and the increasingly blurred...

The UK Is Getting Even Crazier In Defense of Israel, by Caitlin Johnstone

31 May 2026 at 05:00
The UK is getting crazier and crazier in its defense of Israel. Now they’re canceling the visas of mainstream normie political pundits for criticizing the state of Israel, and investigating people for antisemitic hate crimes when they denounce Zionists who aren’t even Jewish. American progressive commentator Cenk Uygur and his nephew Hasan Piker have both...
