The EIR Strategic Alert Service is approaching its 40th year of activity. If you have followed us over the years, you know that we are not a simple news service, but a factor in world politics. We not only provide analyses and facts, we offer solutions and campaign for them. We have been able to do so thanks to your […]

The leak last week of the peace plan for Ukraine drafted by the Trump administration has thrown the battered western world into even greater turmoil. While there is cause for cautious optimism that the bloodshed will soon come to an end, the final word has not been said. What can be said, is that the draft, as presented in the […]

European leaders in the “Coalition of the Willing” have been thrown into a state of controlled panic since the Trump administration’s 28 point peace plan for Ukraine was leaked to the public. There is good reason for that: if the war in Ukraine effectively ends, and Russia is no longer deemed a pariah state, and NATO accepts to stop its […]

It is worth citing seven portions of the 28-point plan put forward by the Trump administration that directly reflect the fact that Russia’s problem with “Ukraine” is the 30-year eastward expansion of NATO toward Russia’s border and the escalated risk of a thermonuclear confrontation. They also show why the transatlantic war party will do everything possible to prevent its implementation, […]

The rampant corruption in virtually all layers of political, military and business life in Ukraine has been no secret for decades now, although Western media have conveniently and shamelessly covered it up. Now, for many reasons, the lid has been blown off at least one part of the problem, the scandal known as “Operation Midas”, involving at least $100 million […]

To maintain the bubble requires ever-growing amounts of available liquidity. As soon as a crisis of confidence occurs somewhere in the global system, margin calls and a liquidity crisis follow, threatening a collapse of the system. That […]

Ideas for rapidly building up European defense industries to replace large-scale purchases of military hardware from the U.S. are impressive on paper, reaching into the hundreds of billions of euros. But transforming the proposals into real military products will prove difficult since Europe has neither the steel, the rare earths nor the electronics required to do so. The EU imports […]

While the announcement on Nov. 22 by Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (MTG) that she was resigning from office in January 2026 was abrupt, it was not surprising. She has been among the most loyal supporters of Donald Trump and a leading figure in his Make America Great Again movement (MAGA). He had often praised her for her strong support […]

As the United States military buildup continues in the Caribbean, allegedly to counter “narco-terrorism”, EIR held an emergency roundtable on Nov. 20 with a number of experts from the region, who all warned Donald Trump not to fall into the trap being set by the neoconservatives in and around his administration. A “regime change war” against Venezuela, they argued, will […]

The end of the system that had built up “global warming” and “climate change” as the greatest danger facing mankind was manifest at the COP 30 gala in Brazil (Nov. 11-20), following on the fiasco of the last such event in oil-rich Azerbaijan in 2024. The Global South refused to limit its fossil fuel consumption, and in fact the final […]
