Since early June, the nation of Bolivia, under President Luis Arce Catacora, has been wracked by political violence unleashed by followers of former President Evo Morales and by a profound economic crisis, which the International Monetary Fund sees as an opportunity to demand that “statist” economic policies be abandoned and replaced by the failed radical neoliberal policies of the past. […]

The massive coordinated drone attacks launched by Ukraine on June 1 against one of the components of Russia’s nuclear triad clearly crossed a “red line” laid out in that country’s nuclear doctrine, all the more so as the operation could not have been carried out without the involvement of one or several NATO member states (cf. SAS 23/25). Although a […]

Ever since the drone assault against Russian airfields and attacks on infrastructure, hailed by a chorus of lunatics as a “breakthrough” for Ukraine in NATO’s proxy war against Russia, one question has repeatedly come up: was and is President Trump in the loop? If his claim that he had not been informed in advance is not true, it would destroy […]

The leading role of the British in the drive to “destroy” Russia, which has long been exposed by EIR, has become increasingly clear to many, in particular since the United States under Donald Trump has moved to remove the cover it used to provide to London. At the International Peace Coalition meeting of June 6, both Scott Ritter and Ray […]

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz did his best to lecture President Donald Trump on Russia, during their two meetings at the White House on June 5, but apparently in vain. During the 45 minute open session with selected journalists, the Chancellor only got about five minutes in total to speak, since Trump dominated the event, and basically nothing was made public […]

One of the most respected U.S. career diplomats throughout the world and in the United States is Chas Freeman, a former ambassador to Saudi Arabia and former Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security Affairs (1993-1994). Ambassador Freeman was a speaker on the first panel of the Schiller Institute’s May 24 conference in NYC (cf. SAS 22/25), where he argued […]

On May 30, after a very long and heated debate in the country, the French parliament voted 305 to 199 in favor of legislation to legalize assisted dying for French citizens over 18 years of age, who are suffering from “constant physical or psychological” pain. Although some parliamentarians had argued for including the euthanasia of minors and people with mental […]

A few apparently unconnected, sometimes imperceptible and yet crucial signs indicate that, in Germany, the temperature under the surface is quickly rising and the German population, which has seemingly accepted all the self-inflicted hardships so far, might soon say “basta!”, and turn the tide in the leading European country. On June 7, some 700 persons gathered in a protest rally […]

Haaretz columnist Gideon Levy tore into lying Israeli media coverage, in a column on June 8 titled “If there’s No Flour, Then Eat Blood and Lies”. In a searing article, he reviews the policy adopted by the Netanyahu regime for food distribution carried out by a private organization, the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, allegedly to reduce the danger of mass starvation. […]

The feud between President Donald Trump and billionaire Elon Musk, which the mainstream media delight in reporting, has put the spotlight on the degree to which the U.S. government depends on the launch services of Musk’s SpaceX company. The threat to decommission the Dragon spacecraft ferrying astronauts and cargo to the International Space Station, originally made by Musk and then […]
