On September 11, 2001, unprecedented attacks destroyed three towers of the World Trade Center in New York. The attack was attributed to Osama bin Laden and justified the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. However, on the same day, real estate developer Donald Trump denounced a lie, and six months later, […]
The general public is completely unaware of the real stakes in the negotiations between Washington and Tehran. This article presents a situation in which lies have been piling up over three decades, making any progress particularly difficult. Contrary to popular belief, the nuclear issue in Iran is not whether Tehran […]
Part I President Donald Trump’s core objective is to reform the Western economy by putting an end to “American globalization,” according to which the components of complex products must be manufactured in multiple countries before being assembled. He intends to repatriate as many factories as possible to his country so […]
President Donald Trump is acting faster than other political leaders of his generation. In a dozen weeks, he has already overturned “American imperialism” in favor of his “exceptionalism.” This is still not the end of the problem, but it represents a considerable step forward for both the United States and […]

How can peace be ensured on the continent? The European Defense project, developed by François Mitterrand and Jacques […]
For the “revisionist Zionists” (that is, the successors of Ze’ev Jabotinsky and Benzion Netanyahu—not to be confused with Theodor Hertzl’s “Zionists”), the time has come, after the victory over Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Assads, to crush Iran. On the contrary, for Donald Trump, after the pacification of the Ukrainian conflict, […]
For a month, the accumulation of critical events around the United States, Ukraine and the European Union has been difficult to interpret because each power has been advancing in disguise. European leaders assume a stupid air by assuring that they continue to support the Ukrainian integral nationalists while Washington and […]
Last week, I recounted the events concerning the Ukrainian conflict, emphasizing that the French president, Emmanuel Macron, as brilliant as he is, was incapable of adapting to changes in the world. This week, I take the same elements, and many others that followed, to show that the divorce of Europeans […]
