Will Donald Trump surrender or will Bibi resort to a false flag?
Benjamin Netanyahu is on his way for his third visit to Washington during the first six months of the second term of President Donald Trump. Bibi requested the visit because he clearly wants something and he never likes to hear anyone tell him “No!” The American Jewish community and the state of Israel working together... Read More
We have long heard about Israel’s so-called Samson Option. Of course, not that there is much detail on it, since too much detail just serves to divert attention. We are all supposed to shudder with fear and hide behind our desks and furniture. That is how intimidation works. Governments and NGOs know this and that... Read More

You can usually tell which side won a war by simply observing 'what happens' after the hostilities end. Following the announcement of a ceasefire between Iran and Israel, millions of Iranians poured onto the streets of Tehran, chanting patriotic songs and waving flags in a spontaneous display of jubilation. In contrast, there were no festivities... Read More

Do dumb things and then lie about it
It is generally believed that American voters elected Donald Trump president at least in part due to their embracing his lies that he was a peacemaker who would not involve the United States in the pointless wars that have proliferated since 9/11. Trump’s predecessor the hapless Genocide Joe Biden had entangled the US deep in... Read More

(and signs that the conflict is about to resume)
The American people are not being told why Israel agreed to a ceasefire with Iran. Yes, Israel was rapidly running out of air-defense interceptors (making it more vulnerable to Iranian attacks.) But that issue is only of secondary importance. The real reason they wanted a ceasefire was because they were getting systematically pulverized and needed... Read More
President Donald Trump and the Israelis cannot accept that in this round of the war against Iran, they are losing escalation control. Trump and the NATO allies will not accept that this is what Russia is taking from them on the Ukrainian battlefield. In the history of the world it has never happened before that... Read More
In the end, predictably, the Circus Ringmaster went TACO (“Trump Always Chickens Out”). He was terrified by three crucial reality-based developments. The Iranian message on preparing to close the Strait of Hormuz. The CIA had warned Trump that China was viscerally opposed to the Strait being blocked. That’s one of the reasons, according to a...

Ten days ago a sudden surprise Israeli attack inflicted a terrible, decapitating blow upon the leadership of the Islamic Republic of Iran, successfully assassinating the country's top military commanders, its chief nuclear weapons negotiator, and nearly all of its most prominent nuclear scientists. Many of these victims were killed in their own homes together with... Read More

Trump sided with the Israelis, asserting that Iran was ‘very close’ to having a bomb, and added that he didn’t care what Gabbard thinks. The sudden claim of Iran being very close to a bomb (that seemingly jumped out of ‘nowhere’ to leave Americans puzzling how could it happen that – in the blink of... Read More

First, let's state the obvious: Trump's pinprick attacks on Iran inflicted "no substantial damage" to their nuclear facilities. The bunker busting bombs did apparently strike near the entry of two of the facilities, but those sites were already locked down (evacuated?) in preparation for the bombing. The government announced on Sunday that all the enriched... Read More

The attack on Iran will lead to endless and pointless slaughter
There is a somewhat troublesome backstory to President Donald Trump’s glorification of how Saturday’s US forces attack on three Iranian nuclear sites that “completely obliterated” their targets was carried out without any declaration of war against a country that has not attacked and was not in any way threatening the United States. Minus any imminent... Read More

Donald Trump, the Israeli-owned “American President,” has posted some weird Satan shit from Mike Huckabee. The fact that Mike Huckabee thinks he’s the prophet Nathan advising King David is perhaps to be expected. He is a deeply confused, satanic individual, which has been understood for decades. He literally believes in exterminating children for “God,” and... Read More
It was just before high noon in Moscow on Thursday, June 19, when President Vladimir Putin initiated his telephone call to President Xi Jinping of China. A read-out by Putin’s foreign policy assistant, Yury Ushakov, followed almost immediately. Xi did not authorize his summary for twenty-four hours until the Chinese official media organ, Global Times,... Read More

For nearly 30 years, Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has driven the Middle East into war and destruction. The man is a powder keg of violence. Throughout all the wars that he has championed, Netanyahu has always dreamed of the big one: to defeat and overthrow the Iranian Government. His long-sought war, just launched, might... Read More

Trump and Netanyahu conspire to destroy Iran
One of the more interesting aspects of the expanding war between Israel and Iran is the way the media and the crowd of “experts” have avoided any discussion of the possible, or perhaps even likely, upcoming decision of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to dig deep into his secret nuclear weapons arsenal to enable the total...

Much like individuals, countries may often become victims of their own great success. This risk certainly applies to criminals, including criminal regimes. Even if they effectively conceal their direct involvement in particular incidents, over time their method of operation---their "M.O."---may become obvious. This allows the ready identification of their handiwork, whether by law enforcement agencies... Read More
Israel’s Foreign Policy Priorities, 3 November 2017 | Flickr (Creative Commons)
It is some years since I described Benjamin Netanyahu as the most dangerous man in West Asia. That was back when we heard all about the menace of the Assad regime in Damascus, the Beelzebub otherwise known as Iran’s supreme leader, and other such unthinkably malign figures. The Israeli prime minister just graduated. By any... Read More
Trump should have remembered the French proverb: If you dine with the Devil, you’d better have a long spoon. Netanyahu and the Jews have played their cards adroitly and Trump has been left hanging out to dry. At about 22:30 and 24:00 Mearsheimer comments on how the administration has been conned and what the costs... Read More
There are no flies on President Vladimir Putin. That’s an expression which originated in the fly-blown goldrush mines of Australia in 1840 and then moved with the flies to the goldrush mines of California a few years later. Literally, it means a man who is too quick for a fly to settle on him. Metaphorically,... Read More
The neoconservatives who orchestrated the disastrous wars with Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and Libya — and who were never held accountable for the profligate waste of $8 trillion taxpayer dollars, as well as $69 billion squandered in Ukraine — look set to lure us into yet another military fiasco with Iran. Iran is not Iraq. Iran... Read More
Yesterday I posted an article saying Trump told Netanyahu to hold off attacking Iran. Israel did it anyway. This says a lot. Israel has never been subservient to the U.S. Indeed it’s the other way around, with the powerful Israel Lobby dominating Congress and often the president, with the result of thousands of American lives...

Washington's Perennial Policy Towards Iran: Hector, Belittle, Bully, Repeat
Nothing one reads about Iran in the western media can be trusted. It is all poisoned with the same, vile anti-Iran hatred and bias. Since the 1979 Revolution to today, US policy towards Iran has been an unbroken chain of relentless hectoring, belligerence and demonization. Washington has never treated Iran with the respect it deserves... Read More
The Last Piece – by Mr. Fish
This is the end. The final blood-soaked chapter of the genocide. It will be over soon. Weeks. At most. Two million people are camped out amongst the rubble or in the open air. Dozens are killed and wounded daily from Israeli shells, missiles, drones, bombs and bullets. They lack clean water, medicine and food. They... Read More

Israel is no friend and never has been one
It often pays, literally, to be perceived as a perpetual victim, a status that Israel and the Jewish institutional constituency have exploited relentlessly since 1945. It is now eighty years since the Second World War ended and the numbers of those receiving “holocaust” reparations from the German government hardly seems to diminish and may now... Read More

Will this idiocy ever end?
There were quite a lot of what Donald Trump might describe as “bad things” taking place in Washington over the past week, to include the worsening of relations with China shortly after what appeared to be an agreement had been reached over tariffs; the arrival at an apparent impasse in negotiations with Iran over its...

The US and Europe give Netanyahu a green light for ethnic cleansing
It has been another exciting week in a world at war where the word “diplomacy” has no meaning and would probably be defined by America’s head of Homeland Security Kristi Noem as a doctrine in which you shoot someone first before he or she can shoot you. In my article last week I discussed the... Read More

Trump has mixed results in both the Middle East and with Russia and Ukraine

Here’s what the media is not telling you: Iran persuaded the Houthis to agree to a ceasefire with Trump in order to build momentum for this weekend's nuclear talks in Oman. Two Iranian officials indicated that Tehran encouraged the Houthis to stop targeting U.S. assets, aligning with Iran’s interest in de-escalating tensions to advance nuclear... Read More
The present populist era is rife with all manner of odd realignments. Anti-Defamation League CEO Jonathan Greenblatt recently faced sharp criticism from its ex-director Abraham Foxman over his initial plan to speak at the Israeli Diaspora Ministry’s International Conference on Combating Antisemitism in Jerusalem. For Foxman, the current ADL chief’s decision to share the stage... Read More

Has Donald Trump finally seen the light?
I have in the past speculated that the day might come when President Donald Trump, he of a massive ego, might just become tired of his being manipulated and controlled by America’s Israel Lobby and by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in particular. I thought, and hoped, that he might become so annoyed that he... Read More

Donald Trump has appointed a Jewish community liaison officer
I know that those who read my articles will be interested to learn that President Donald Trump has appointed Martin Marks to be his administration’s liaison to the American Jewish community with the title Special Assistant to the President and Director of Jewish Engagement in the White House Faith Office. Marks, whose mother handbag designer... Read More

* Warning: indelicate language. WHAT has Israel been up to since March 18, 2025, which was when the “genocidal entity” formally broke the nominal ceasefire agreement in Gaza? Oracular insight here is unnecessary. Israel has been trampling underfoot everything decent and good. Genocide is back. This time with President Trump in fawning agreement, playing procurer...

The treaty that the United States and Iran signed in July 2015, was the most exhaustive and stringent nuclear agreement in history. No other nuclear treaty comes close. The so-called Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) imposed the most rigorous and extensive verification measures and restrictions of any treaty ever. In terms of scope, enforcement... Read More
The 'remake' of Donald Trump into a strong, independent leader---who is not controlled by the wealthy Zionists who got him elected---is the prevailing subtext of the New York Times blockbuster article: Trump Waved Off Israeli Strike After Divisions Emerged in His Administration. The content of the article is not nearly as important as the subtle... Read More

Israel is no friend to Jesus
My rewrite of the famous quote by Lord Palmerston regarding “interests” to have it reflect the reality of Israel and its powerful friends would go something like this: “I say that it is a narrow policy to suppose that Israel is to be marked out as the eternal ally or the perpetual friend of the...

This interview is also available on podcast platforms and Rumble. Israel, both materially and rhetorically, has made their intent to destroy the Palestinian people clear. One of the most renowned and courageous Middle East scholars, Norman Finkelstein, has assiduously documented the Palestinian plight for decades and he joins host Chris Hedges on this episode of...

Here's what the media is not telling you about last Saturday's nuclear negotiations with Iran: There were no negotiations. Not in the conventional sense of the word, at least. What actually took place was more akin to a late-night comedy skit than a gathering of diplomats hammering out a deal on nuclear enrichment. At no... Read More
Israel is poised to carry out the largest campaign of ethnic cleansing since the end of World War II. Since March 2, it has blocked all food and humanitarian aid into Gaza and cut off electricity, so that the last water desalination plant no longer functions. The Israeli military has seized half of the territory... Read More

One day we will really all be victims
Many Americans will be relieved to learn that US Embassy employees and their families in China can no longer have "romantic or sexual relations" with local Chinese. It is certainly a move long past due which will keep us safer together with those 125% tariffs that we will be hitting the Chinks with. But beyond... Read More

What has happened to the Constitutional Republic where all are equal under law?
I recently read an article by investigative historian Eric Zuesse, author of America’s Empire of Evil, that began “One of the core features of nazism (not the German political Party but its core ideology) is racism, which allows some ethnicities (or “races”) to be advantaged by law, and other ethnicities to be discriminated against by...

Beatings and arrests continue both in the US and the Middle East
The news cycle over the past week has been dominated by reports and analysis of the Signal group chat involving top national security officials discussing aspects of the recent air strikes which have been directed against the Houthis in Yemen. There are four basic issues that are being examined by both the media and by... Read More
This is the last chapter of the genocide. It is the final, blood-soaked push to drive the Palestinians from Gaza. No food. No medicine. No shelter. No clean water. No electricity. Israel is swiftly turning Gaza into a Dantesque cauldron of human misery where Palestinians are being killed in their hundreds and soon, again, in... Read More

Trump's push for a ceasefire in Ukraine has less to do with Ukraine than it does with Israel. In other words, Trump's hasty negotiations with Putin are not aimed at ending the proxy war with Russia as much they are with shifting the frontlines from the Donbas to Iran. This 'shift in focus' has become... Read More

A geo-political reading of Israel’s incipient civil war Israel is deeply fractured. The schism has become bitter and heated as both sides see themselves to be in an existential war for the future of Israel. The language used has become so venomous (particularly in reserved channels in Hebrew) that calls for a coup and for... Read More

We’re nearly 50 days into Trump’s new ‘Golden Age,’ and yet, somehow, a large-scale war in the Middle East seems more likely now than at any other time since 2003. The obedient 47th President is determined to perform every trick that Benjamin Netanyahu and Miriam Adelson demand of him, regardless of whether or not their... Read More

Give Miriam Adelson her $100 million back and tell her to go home
