Emmanuel Macron came to power in 2017 as a politician of a new kind: a technocrat, unbound by traditional parties, a champion of modernization, progress, and European integration. He was positioned as an alternative to rising populist and radical political figures. Yet by the midpoint of his second presidential term, […]
On 26 February 2025, Fox News headlined “Trump posts AI video of Gaza as luxury resort”, which showed clips from a promotional video that Trump had had done to show how he would like Gaza to be after the Gazans are eliminated from there and replaced by a world-class tropical beach-resort […]
These are the sorts of things that tend to be discussed in bunkered facilities and grimy locker rooms. Now, very much in the open and before the presses, the head of state of one country is openly advocating murdering another head of state before news outlets with little reaction. Lawbreaking […]
There is a throbbing complaint among Western powers, including those in the European Union and the United States. Iran is not playing by the rules.
