Anyone saluting the courage of Russian media worker Marina Ovsyannikova, who has been arrested following her on-air anti-war protest, should join the campaign to stop the extradition of Julian Assange. The Supreme Court’s rejection of his appeal bid is grim news for the journalist whose Wikileaks organisation has done more to expose war crimes than any other media outlet this century. [...]

When Brian Berletic was first sent to serve for the U.S. Marine Corps based in Okinawa, Japan, and saw Japanese people protesting against their base's existence, he and his fellow marines couldn't be more confused: “Don't they know we are here to protect them?” Yet after four years in the military witnessing the horrible attitude many marines had shown to the locals, including committing at [...]

To understand the sinking of the Moskva and Putin’s impending retaliation against the United States, you first have to realize that any national leader wanting to make bold military moves first needs the support of his own people. In 1941, Pearl Harbor was allowed to happen (the US government knew all about it and even provoked it) in order to create the emotional support for the US to enter the [...]

Americans have been shocked by the death and destruction of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, filling our screens with bombed buildings and dead bodies lying in the street. But the United States and its allies have waged war in country after country for decades, carving swathes of destruction through cities, towns and villages on a far greater scale than has so far disfigured Ukraine. As we recen [...]

Victoria Nuland engineered Ukraine’s “regime change” in early 2014 without weighing the likely chaos and consequences. As the Ukrainian army squares off against ultra-right and neo-Nazi militias in the west and violence against ethnic Russians continues in the east, the obvious folly of the Obama administration’s Ukraine policy has come into focus even for many who tried to ignore the f [...]

Coming from the leaders who started the bloody Iraq war, it’s hypocritical, to say the least. Current and former Western leaders who have achieved eternal notoriety for launching the Iraq War, as well as other military disasters, are clearly the wrong people to lecture Russia over its actions in Ukraine. As George W. Bush and Tony Blair are emerging from political retirement to pontificate o [...]

On 20 March 2022, while we were conducting a humanitarian mission near Sartana, on the north-eastern outskirts of Mariupol, we came across many civilians who had recently fled Mariupol thanks to the advance of Russian and DPR (Donetsk People’s Republic) troops.

According to the expert, Saudi [...]

The greenback’s share in the global currency basket could drop. Global economies will be rethinking how safe it is to rely on the US dollar in their foreign currency holdings, the deputy head of the International Monetary Fund, Gita Gopinath, said on Tuesday.

China's vice foreign minister blames NATO for stoking the instability that led to the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Vice Foreign Minister Le Yucheng said that globalization should not be “weaponized” while military bloc politics must be “rejected,” a day after US President Joe Biden warned his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping of “consequences” if Beijing supported Russia's military action [...]

Get ready to get knocked right out of your chair! Here is my latest video production: Israel, The Promised Land for Organized Crime. It is a powerful, factual documentary that exposes the incredible hypocrisy of the media that has caused most of the world to have deep – and false – associations of organized crime with Italians, while the true identity of the world champions of organized crime [...]

Airport workers in Italy claim “humanitarian” cargo from Pisa was actually aimed at fueling the conflict. One of Italy’s largest trade unions has called for a protest outside the Pisa airport on Saturday, after receiving a tip from some employees that Ukraine relief flights were transporting weapons and ammunition, not food and medicine. Several workers at the Galileo Galilei airport refused [...]

The defenders of Ukraine are bravely resisting Russian aggression, shaming the rest of the world and the UN Security Council for its failure to protect them. It is an encouraging sign that the Russians and Ukrainians are holding talks in Belarus that may lead to a ceasefire. All efforts must be made to bring an end to this war before the Russian war machine kills thousands more of Ukraine’s de [...]

Volodymyr Zelensky is the current President of Ukraine. He was elected in a landslide victory in 2019 on the promise of easing tensions with Russia and resolving the crisis in the breakaway republics in east Ukraine. He has made no attempt to keep his word on either issue. Instead, he has greatly exacerbated Ukraine’s internal crisis while relentlessly provoking Russia. Zelensky has had numerou [...]

Russia’s military intervention in Ukraine has spelled the end of an epoch in the state of global affairs after President Vladimir Putin launched the action last week. Its impact will be felt for years to come, but Moscow has positioned itself to “become an agent of cardinal change for the whole world.” The Russian Armed Forces’ operation in Ukraine marks the end of an era.

While the US and its NATO allies are bashing Russia over its "special military operation" into Ukraine, they remain silent about their own wars in Yugoslavia, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, and Yemen, to name but a few say retired UN Independent Expert on the Promotion of a Democratic and Equitable International Order Alfred-Maurice de Zayas.
