Disrupt Land Forces 2024: Wrong Tactics, Wrong Politics

15-09-2024: Melbourne, the city of the world’s worst “Covid” lockdowns, is again the site of state repression, this time against self-proclaimed anti-war protestors objecting to the holding of a military hardware expo. From the 11th to the 13th of September, held at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre in Victoria, Land Forces 2024 posits itself as the “premier platform for interaction between defence, industry and … Continue reading Disrupt Land Forces 2024: Wrong Tactics, Wrong Politics

BRICS + Surges Ahead

09-09-2024:  In mid-August, the Central Bank Governor Elvira Nabiullina confirmed that a staggering 159 countries are ready to adopt the BRICS payment system, which will expand Russia’s SPFS platform, as an alternative to SWIFT.[1] The BRICS alliance is perhaps better described as “BRICS +”, due to the fact that it has expanded beyond the original members of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa to … Continue reading BRICS + Surges Ahead

“Far Left” Feeds “Far Right” Riots in the UK

26-08-2024: As Martin Luther King Jr remarked in 1967, a riot is the language of the unheard.[1] The riots which spread through the United Kingdom (UK) in early August were no exception to this axiom. Even though the catalyst may have been utter revulsion at the unspeakable stabbing murder of three young girls at a dance class,[2] there are deep and underlying causes to this … Continue reading “Far Left” Feeds “Far Right” Riots in the UK

Venezuela: US Backed Regime Change Operation Fails Once More

12-08-2024: Another election in Venezuela, another attempt at regime change sponsored by Washington and its deep state. This one was another failure, like all previous ones since Hugo Chavez was elected in 1998, beginning the “Bolivarian Revolution”. Today, Nicolas Maduro continues the legacy and the politics of the Bolivarian process, with mixed results. The results of the July 28 presidential election in Venezuela, however, were … Continue reading Venezuela: US Backed Regime Change Operation Fails Once More

Emanuel Pastreich for US President in 2024

29-07-2024: The United States of America faces its largest political crisis in its history. As with most political crises, it is the working class and the poor that suffer the most. Staggering inequality reigns as wealth accumulates in the hands of an ever-smaller number of billionaires. At the same time, the cost of living for the masses is close to the highest it has ever … Continue reading Emanuel Pastreich for US President in 2024

Trump Assassination Attempt: No to Political Violence!

21-07-2024: The reverberations from the assassination attempt on former US President Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania on July 13 continue around the world. Even before a thorough investigation into the event takes place, it is difficult not to conclude that the deep state was involved or at the least complicit in the extraordinary scenes which unfolded. It can scarcely be believed that the US Secret … Continue reading Trump Assassination Attempt: No to Political Violence!

Kenya: Lives Sacrificed in Western Backed Colour Revolution

BRICS Rises, G7 Decomposes

24-06-2024: It was an uninspiring spectacle. The G7 (Group of 7 – USA, UK, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Canada) meeting in Apulia from June 13 to 15 was almost entirely devoid of meaning and appeared to portray the end of an empire. The G7 advanced and industrialised countries, birthed in the early 1970s, at that time accounted for more than 60% of world Gross Domestic … Continue reading BRICS Rises, G7 Decomposes
