  • Where is it Leading?

    Note: This article was being completed just before the attack on a Jewish holiday celebration at Bondi Beach in Sydney, Australia. A previous article ─ The Radical Left Meets the Extreme Right: Allied against Jewish support for Israel ─ remained unfinished. The connection between hostility to apartheid Israel and the strengthening of the extreme right, […]

  • Who’s the Dictator? Venezuela’s Maduro or Ukraine’s Zelenskyy

    Washington brands Nicolás Maduro a dictator, celebrates Volodymyr Zelenskyy as democratic, and sponsors María Corina Machado to achieve regime change in Venezuela rather than promote genuine democracy. Within the narrow spectrum of establishment punditry, “dictator” functions as a term of opprobrium reserved for governments Washington designates as enemies. By this measure, Maduro is cast as […]

  • The Russian Wolf Speaks: Alexander Dugin and the Fourth Political Theory

    The Russian Wolf Speaks: Alexander Dugin and the Fourth Political Theory

    Rise of the populist right In two previous articles I pointed out that the 18th century political spectrum makes no sense in the world today and it hasn’t made sense for at least the past 10 years. Today the leading forces against global monopoly and finance capital in the West are coming from the right […]

  • Hostage Property and the Global Firestorm

    Hostage Property and the Global Firestorm

    Sanctions and asset seizures are not neutral tools. They are weapons of empire. Venezuela and Russia stand at the center of this economic warfare, but they are not alone. From Iraq to Libya, nations have been stripped of their wealth, their citizens punished, and their sovereignty undermined. What emerges is a global system where confiscation […]

  • NATO Rutte’s Berlin Speech: Not About Russia, but About the End of Rational Politics

    Inside NATO’s cathedral of fear, weapons become sacraments and projection becomes liturgy. From the stained-glass altar, thunderous light strikes Russia and China — not as analysis, but as ritual. This is not about Putin. It is about the West’s collapse into psycho-political theatre. Mark Rutte’s Berlin speech in December 2025 has been hailed as a […]

  • The Nobel Peace Prize Desecrated Again

    When Alfred Nobel established his peace prize, he was guided by Bertha von Suttner, the most respected peace activist of the 1890s, who was revered by European heads of state and initiated high-level peace conferences. Nobel formulated three criteria for receiving his peace prize: The prize shall be awarded to the peace advocate who, during […]

  • Blanked: A Tale of Two Books

    A significant feature of the propaganda system is the suppression of clearly important, credible books which are nevertheless deemed unfit for review in the ‘respectable mainstream’. In 2025, two important – indeed, groundbreaking – bestselling books about British politics were published which were almost entirely ignored by the state-corporate media. These were The Fraud: Keir […]

  • Mexico is Transforming for the Good

    On Saturday, December 6 an estimated 600 thousand persons packed the huge “Zocalo” plaza in Mexico City to celebrate the seventh anniversary of Mexico’s “Transformation.” President Claudia Sheinbaum, after one year in power, gave a powerful speech outlining the progress Mexico is making as well as specific goals, plans and promises for the remainder of […]

  • How to be a Good Man

    [A version of this essay was presented to the 4th International Congress on Critical Interventions with Men Who Exercise Violence Against Women in Mexico City on December 6. 2025.] From social media influencers to academic theorists, preachers and politicians, everyone weighs in on the question of what makes a good man, especially what young men need […]

  • Trump’s Empire of Hubris and Thuggery

    The president’s latest National Security Strategy memorandum treats the freedom to coerce others as the essence of US sovereignty. It is an ominous document that will—if allowed to stand—come back to haunt the United States. The 2025 National Security Strategy (NSS) recently released by President Donald Trump presents itself as a blueprint for renewed American strength. […]
