The world is awaiting an initial decision (to come after 28 July 2025), in the case “South Africa v. Israel” (that link to the case is to it at the U.S.-Government-controlled Wikipedia and is therefore slanted favoring Israel against South Africa, but provides at least the facts that Israel’s side acknowledges). (The […]
Jewish nazism — that’s to say Jewish racist-supremacist expansionist nationalism, or “Zionism” — is now being enforced by the far-righting Israeli President Netanyahu against dissenters in his own military, though not yet as forcefully as Hitler did in his German variety of this ideology (he had such dissenters promptly executed; […]
On 28 June 1914 Gavrilo Princeps, a Bosnian-Serb radical, shot and killed Austrian Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife Sophie, Duchess of Hohenberg. Princeps did not act alone.

The stability that Western society was famous for is gradually disappearing. This is a direct consequence of the fact that the Governments of almost all countries, without exception, are not able to sufficiently trust their partners from Europe and North America.

Creative economic diplomacy was the key to getting their increasingly stalled talks back on track. Russian Special Presidential Envoy Kirill Dmitriev, who’s also the CEO of the Russian Direct Investment Fund, paid a visit to DC last week to continue negotiations with the US over bilateral ties and Ukraine. His […]
