On 23 May 2020, I headlined “Israel — an enemy of America” and documented that though U.S. taxpayers donate to Israel each year $3.8 billion, of which 3.3 billion goes to pay American weapons-producers such as Lockheed Martin to supply Israel with weaponry, Israel’s record has been as an enemy of the U.S. (or […]
Peace talks between the leaders of the two countries can open up new opportunities for all participants in the negotiations. Ukrainians are most saddened by Trump’s initiatives. Although Zelensky continues to try not to show his disappointment with Trump’s actions, the window of opportunity for the Ukrainian President is gradually […]
The world is growing ever more perilous. In 2024, global military spending hit a record $2.44 trillion, according to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute. This trend has only intensified in 2025. At the heart of this shift are not Russia, China, or Iran, but nations that until recently claimed […]
We don’t understand the negotiations in Ukraine and the Middle East because we don’t understand the difference between wars and civil conflicts. We approach peacemaking as if it were a matter of dividing up common property during a divorce, after a few years of living together. But wars are of […]
President Donald Trump has gone on a rant, condemning Russian air strikes in Ukraine and complaining that the attacks are killing civilians. The President says about Putin: “Something has happened to him, he has gone absolutely CRAZY.” This was posted on Truth Social. Mr. Trump said the same thing to reporters in an […]
The Chancellor was in Lithuania, where the opening ceremony of a new military base was held. For the first time, Germany decided to deploy a tank brigade outside its borders.

A good example of this was reported by me on 4 December 2024, under the headline “Reuters reports Trump is set to continue Biden’s policies on Ukraine.” It decoded what […]
Google, which was co-created by the U.S. Government though all of its profits are privatized (owned by their private investors), uses many methods to suppress articles (such as mine) that expose the corruptness, imperialism, and constant lying — the ideologically nazi character — of the post-WW2 U.S. Government. Today I found a new method they’re using, […]
Here was another chance – at least as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu saw it – of threading one set of events with another. It’s all part of the Israeli security state’s playbook: any killing of Jews or its citizens, wherever they might be, will have a causal link to […]
Negotiations between Russia and Ukraine took place in Istanbul. There has been a lot of speculation about this in Europe, the USA, and Ukraine, but by and large they can be called successful. There is progress. The question is whether this success will be consolidated in the next negotiations. This […]
