  • Iran’s Comprehensive Peace Proposal to the United States

    The Middle East stands at a crossroads between endless war and comprehensive peace. A framework for peace does exist. Will the US finally seize it? History occasionally presents moments when the truth about a conflict is stated plainly enough that it becomes impossible to ignore. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi’s February 7 address in Doha, Qatar (transcript here) should […]

  • Bad Beginnings: The End of New START

    How awful could it get? The New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (New START) expired on February 5, terminating an era of arms control and imposed limits on lunatically contrived nuclear weapons programs of the United States and Russia. The New START Treaty entered into force on February 5, 2011 and initially imposed a timeline of […]

  • Important Texts before the Trump Regime Starts Yet Another War on Iran and Its People

    Here is just a very short guide for the concerned: While you find little, or nothing, comprehensive, well-researched and meaningful in Western mainstream media, there are lots to be gained from every day visiting the online homes of, say, Al Jazeera, Al Mayadeen, the Middle East Eye — and others too, of course. Visit also […]

  • Is the UN Being Wrecked So Western Leaders Can Escape Justice from the ICC and ICJ?

    On Thursday UK MPs will debate the motion “That this House has considered the obligation to assess the risk of genocide under international law in relation to the Occupied Palestinian Territories”.

  • The US Is Pushing So Many Regime Change Agendas It’s Hard To Keep Up

    It’s just incredible how quickly and aggressively the US is advancing longstanding agendas of global conquest under the Trump administration. Now they’re racing to take out Cuba. The US president has signed an executive order to impose new tariffs on countries that supply oil to Cuba, even indirectly, which is expected to dramatically increase the pressure […]

  • Diplomacy, Law, and Nonviolent Power

    Read Part 1. This is the second of four TFF-created idea portfolios designed to curb the global reach of the United States and, in both the short and long term, help catalyse a worldwide nonviolent resistance to what many observers describe as the Trump administration’s uniquely confrontational, destructive and world-threatening policies. These portfolios outline what […]

  • The Neocolonial Ambitions of NATO Countries

    The Neocolonial Ambitions of NATO Countries

    The term neocolonialism first appeared in the mid-twentieth century and was used to describe the continuing control of colonial powers (Great Britain, France, Spain, Portugal, Germany, Belgium, Italy) over other nominally independent states, especially their colonies in Africa. In the 21st century, the meaning of the term neocolonialism has expanded and is now used to […]

  • The US-Israel Hybrid War Against Iran

    The question is not if the US and Israel will attack Iran, but when. In the nuclear age, the US refrains from all-out war, since it can easily lead to nuclear escalation. Instead, the US and Israel are waging war against Iran through a combination of crushing economic sanctions, targeted military strikes, cyberwarfare, stoking unrest, and […]

  • Military Bases Prove New York Times to Be Lying About Greenland

    Military Bases Prove New York Times to Be Lying About Greenland

    This was a headline in the New York Times on Tuesday: “With Threats to Greenland, Trump Sets America on the Road to Conquest: After a century of defending other countries against foreign aggression, the United States is now positioned as an imperial power trying to seize another nation’s land.” Here is a sentence from the […]

  • The White House Archive: What Vladimir Putin Confided to George W. Bush, What He Means Now

    Revealed for the first time in public is that President Vladimir Putin believes that international terrorism of the radical Islamic type is not the result of Middle Eastern conflict or of regional poverty or of Great Power proxy warfighting. Rather, he thinks it is a form of competition of the Marxist-Leninist type between Islamic and […]
