STRATEGIC ALERT Service

A “surprise” visit to Europe by a well-rehearsed Volodymyr Zelenskyy was staged last week to step up the war drive. It began in great pomp in the place which has done the most to keep the war on Russia going, namely London, where the Ukrainian President met King Charles III at Buckingham Palace, gave a speech before a joint session […]

During President Zelenskyy’s speech to the British parliament, he gave special praise to “Boris” for organizing support for Kyiv “from day one” (he was still Prime Minister at the time). Johnson responded by calling for delivery of all the “extra equipment they need to defeat Putin”. “That means longer range missiles and artillery. It means more tanks. It means planes. […]

One section of the Schiller Institute conference of Feb. 4 was dedicated to the development of Africa, and more especially to cooperation with China (see https://schillerinstitute.com/blog/2023/02/03/). One of the speakers was Ugandan Attorney Elison Karuhanga, an expert in energy law, who gave a very polemical presentation on “Uganda’s Oil Project and Energy Independence”. His country has discovered oil fields having […]

Several days before Seymour Hersh’s article appeared (cf. above), the prestigious Columbia Journalism Review ran a 24,000 word article by former New York Times (NYT) reporter Jeff Gerth, which eviscerates the coverage of “Russiagate” in the U.S mainstream media. Titled simply “The press versus the president”, the article focuses especially on the NYT and Washington Post (WaPo), which shared a […]

The priority of the moment is to mobilize all possible forces to stop the danger of an escalation of the conflict between Russia and NATO into a third world war, as the Doomsday Clock puts us at 90 seconds to Armageddon. Concomitantly, comes the necessity of eliminating the reasons for the war drive against both Russia and China, namely the […]

An unprecedented rally will take place in Washington on Feb. 19 to protest NATO’s war drive under the banner “Rage Against the War Machine”. Unprecedented, as it’s organized by a very broad-based right-left coalition, bringing together people from the entire political spectrum, who are opposed to war. Sister rallies will also be held in many other U.S. cities, followed by […]

The following press release was issued by the international Schiller Institute on Feb. 6. The recent double earthquake in southern Turkiye and northwestern Syria is a terrible disaster which is generating a wave of emotion and empathy from around the world. The situation will likely worsen due to forecast weather of extremely low temperatures throughout the region, resulting in the […]

It took less than one year, in September 2019, for the Federal Reserve to stop Quantitative Tightening and reverse to Quantitative Easing, because the whole house of cards was coming down. The Fed was forced to take over the overnight (repo) market. At that point, however, liquidity-generated hyperinflation could no longer be contained within the confines of financial asset values, […]

France and the United Kingdom have been hit with huge demonstrations and strikes since the New Year, to protest the heightened austerity measures taken as a result of the shift toward a war economy in all of Europe. Similar protests are breaking out in Denmark and Germany. A steadily growing movement in France, supported by two-thirds of the population according […]

The reality behind the frantic efforts of German Economy Minister Robert Habeck to find alternate suppliers for Russian gas, is that they have flopped. The prospective volumes of LNG that are supposed to come from the Gulf States, Ibero-America and the United States/Canada will not suffice to fill the gap created by the sanctions against Russia. Germany’s mainstream media, nonetheless, […]
