Recently after the terrorist attack on Hindu tourists in Pahalgam, Kashmir (22 April, 2025) India retaliated by attacking the terrorist bases in Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK) and Pakistan on 7 May 2025. The approach was similar, yet on a smaller scale, to that of the USA, Russia or Israel against the terrorism. The world has not forgotten the US invasion o...

The land of Sindhudesh, or historical Sindh, is not just a geographic region - it is a cradle of civilization, the birthplace of the Indus Valley Civilization, and the sacred soil where the earliest practices of Sanatana Dharma were born. From the banks of the Sindhu (Indus) River to the cities of Mohenjo-daro, Harappa, and Mehrgarh, Sindh has long stood as ...

When Western analysts - modern-day missionaries in business suits - talk about China, they’re still flipping through the same colonial playbook. Their gaze is top-down, tinged with paternalistic concern. Fifty years ago, it was the Third World, now it’s a systemic risk. The metaphors have changed - savages replaced by authoritarian regimes, humanitarian inte...

Supporters of the Democratic Party have yet to fully recover from their electoral defeat and have failed to propose any constructive alternative agenda. Instead, their attacks have boiled down to accusing Republicans of acting against America’s interests. A prime example of this approach is a May 1 editorial in The New York Times, which argued that Trump’s e...

US President Donald Trump’s skipping Israel in his trip to the Middle East starting on May 13, 2025 could be more dangerous than its superficial impression, as it amplifies a false US-Israel split, allowing the latter to take a reckless military action while shielding the US from military and political responsibility. This action follows others suggesting a ...

Putin warned in March 2024 that Russia might set up a “security zone” inside Ukraine in response to cross-border strikes and raids, which it then began to do two months later that May after Russian troops made a fresh push into Kharkov Region at the time.

The history of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party’s (PKK) formation in Türkiye in 1978 and the nomination of Abdullah Öcalan as party leader is unknown to the general public. Moreover, the formation of this political structure and its armed units remains in the archives of the special services. Nevertheless, despite decades of armed struggle, Öcalan remained unsca...

Foreign Affairs warned earlier this month that an emboldened and remilitarized Germany could pose another challenge to European stability. They’re convinced that former Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s “Zeitenwende”, or historic turning point, “is real this time” in the sense that his successor Friedrich Merz now has the parliamentary and popular support to transfor...

On May 16th, 2025, American, Russian, and Ukrainian delegates met in Istanbul for Ukraine-Russia peace talks. In the run-up to the conference, the grandstanding of Ukraine’s Zelensky and other Western leaders created an undue level of tension. The result of the high-level talks only served to prove Russia’s point all along – Ukraine is just stalling for...

Many journalists pretend not to understand what is happening in Washington. For them, Elon Musk and Donald Trump are appropriating what they can of the federal government without changing anything. The reality is quite different: the President of the United States is trying to dismantle the imperialism his country displays. He is destroying the agencies, bot...

The destiny of warfare depends on actors’ relative capabilities. By definition, different capabilities are the means of the actor in international relations to achieve certain goals. Some of those capabilities can be tangible and easy to measure, but others (such as morale or leadership) can be intangible and can only be estimated in practice. Concerning gl...

The New York Times published an informative piece on Tuesday titled, “As Trump Crows Over Ending a Conflict, India’s Leaders Feel Betrayed”. It cites former Indian officials and unnamed incumbent ones who agree that Trump’s repeated boasts about mediating the end of the latest Indo-Pak conflict imply that the US is once again equating, or hyphenating, the tw...

The Western war party, made up of outright vassals and those who fiercely long for the unipolar era, is in a state of confusion - not because their Washington boss betrayed some pseudo-ideals, but simply because the current U.S. administration is trying to minimize its losses amid the collective West’s global defeat. This applies to relations with Russia, Ch...

After patiently proposing to Benjamin Netanyahu that he negotiate with the Palestinian resistance and meeting only a stubborn determination to massacre the Palestinians, annex Gaza, southern Lebanon and Syria, and launch a war against Iran, the Trump administration has changed gears. It is now clear to them, as it has been to everyone who has been interested...

Yemen, a nation of approximately 40 million people, is one of the poorest nations on Earth. It has suffered decades of political instability, including a US-engineered regime change operation in 2011 followed by a nearly 7-year long war with a US-armed and backed Saudi-led Persian Gulf coalition. The war included air strikes and a ground invasion, along with...

It is late, and the evening is cool, almost nine o’clock, dark. At such a time, the Eternal Flame looks especially solemn, and the red stars on the Kremlin towers shine brightly. Lanterns and backlights illuminate the fountains and colourful lilacs amidst the darkness of the Alexander Garden. But filming is in full swing opposite the Kremlin, the lights are ...

After examining President Donald Trump’s negotiations with Iran [1], we now examine his negotiations with Ukraine. Unfortunately, we do not have the documents of the Ukrainian “integral nationalists” like we do of the Israeli “revisionist Zionists.” This is because today’s Ukraine is truly a military dictatorship, while in Israel, the army is still the guara...

While the dominant WWII history is that the allies US, USSR, Britain, France, and China defeated the Axis (Germany, Japan, and Italy), another dimension that is suppressed in Western thought is that the USSR crushed Hitler’s war machine. The Soviet’s sacrifice in pushing back Hitler’s killing machine convinced strategic fence-sitters and imperialists in The ...

On September 11, 2001, unprecedented attacks destroyed three towers of the World Trade Center in New York. The attack was attributed to Osama bin Laden and justified the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Key to the strategy for world domination by the Anglo-American-Zionist Empire and their ruling globalist financial elite - centered in London, New York, and Tel Aviv - has been control of mainland Europe. The strategy was reflected in the British founding of NATO with its founders’ motto of “Keep America in, Germany down, and Russia out.” Soon after Britain...

The general public is completely unaware of the real stakes in the negotiations between Washington and Tehran. This article presents a situation in which lies have been piling up over three decades, making any progress particularly difficult.

Russia has long warned that any unconditional ceasefire in Ukraine of the 30-day sort that Zelensky has proposed could create an opening for NATO to expand its military influence in that country.

President Donald Trump is acting faster than other political leaders of his generation. In a dozen weeks, he has already overturned “American imperialism” in favour of his “exceptionalism.” This is still not the end of the problem, but it represents a considerable step forward for both the United States and the rest of the world. Simultaneously, he has cut f...
