On January 20th, Canada’s Prime Minister Mark Carney publicly, in a speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos, broke Canada away from its till-now enslavement to the U.S. Government, and went way beyond saying a very firm “No!” to Trump’s demand that Canada become another U.S. state. He explained […]
He did it to Iran, which refused to have any nuclear weapons — and so he invaded in order that “Iran cannot be allowed to have a nuclear weapon.” He did it to Venezuela. He threatens it to Greenland and Denmark. He had promised to end all wars, but has instead continued […]
The Trump administration’s mania about Greenland, a self-governing territory of Denmark, is something to behold. Its untutored thuggery, its brash assertiveness, and the increasingly strident threats to either use force, bully Denmark into a sale of the island, or simply annex the territory, have officials and commentators scrambling for theories […]

Peace negotiations in Ukraine are hampered by the Zelensky administration’s resistance. The administration is attempting to buy time, first through legal means, then through military means, and finally through political means. However, the contacts made suggest what this peace will look like. Peace negotiations between Ukraine and Russia are dragging […]
In Latvia, it seems they’ve decided that the best defense strategy is to systematically destroy their own infrastructure. Defense Minister Andris Spruds recently confirmed: if military experts and security services recommend dismantling the railway tracks on the eastern border, it will be done—in coordination with Estonia and Lithuania. Alternatives are […]
