<p>Dear Readers, the illegal oppression to which the “democratic” state of Germany, an offspring of Nazi tyranny, is subjecting Dr. Reiner Fuellmich, is identical to the illegal persecution of Julian Assange by the UK and US governments.</p>
<p>What Western peoples do not know, and do not want to know, is that they no longer live in democracies.  They live in tyrannies in which they have no reliable rights.  The orchestrated “Covid pandemic” perfectly demonstrated that civil liberty is totally dead in the Western World.</p>
<p>US President Donald Trump, a courageous man unlike the cowards of our time, has challenged the corrupt American and European Establishment.  He has undertaken to renew the principles and values that made the Western World great.  But has he the power?  It remains to be seen, and I support him.</p>
<p>However, it took Americans too long to realize and to acknowledge their peril.  Trump has been handed the challenge after the rot of every American value and principle has been institutionalized, set in stone, for so long that the institutionalized government is against him, the judiciary is against him, the Democrat Party and the RINO Republicans are against him,  the law and journalism schools are against him, the universities, the print, TV and NPR media are against him. The Establishment’s opposition to Trump expresses their opposition to democracy.</p>
<p>Only the dispossessed majority are for Trump, and they have no power.  The Democrats have proven that it is easy to steal the vote from them, to arrest them as insurrectionists, to seize their children from them, and to have them fired from their jobs because they gave voice to unapproved statements. The Biden regime had succeeded, and carried corporate America with it, in having a government in which there were no white heterosexual gentile males in senior positions and in which promotions of white heterosexual males in the military were put on hold in order to advance DEI.  The blatant discrimination against white heterosexual males was a violation of the 14th Amendment and the 1964 Civil Rights Act.  And the judiciary did nothing about it.  But the judiciary is active in preventing the deportation of illegals who have no right to be in the US.</p>
<p>Considering the extraordinary powers arrayed against Trump only violence can prevail over the powerful anti-American Establishment.  The American people do not understand this, and so Trump hasn’t the power to prevail.</p>
<p>When the Democrats return to power, Americans will experience tyranny not seen since Stalin. Like Cicero, who did his best to save Rome, Trump and his supporters will be hunted down and destroyed. All white heterosexuals will be suppressed, reduced to second class citizenship, and regarded as an unreliable element always under government surveillance. We will be put on terrorist watch lists and designated a terrorist group.  Already some years ago the Secretary of Homeland Security, a Nazi term, said that the focus had changed from the war on terror to “domestic terrorism” by which was meant white gentile heterosexuals who are pro-family, pro-life, and Christian.  Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton gave traditional Americans their term of demonization when she declared them to be the “Trump deplorables.”</p>
<p>Already, the tyrannical government of Germany, an alleged “democracy,” has exceeded in its treatment of  Dr. Reiner Fuellmich the invidious attacks by the US and UK governments on Julian Assange.</p>
<p>When truth cannot be spoken and truth-tellers are imprisoned, freedom is totally dead.  This is the situation today throughout the Western World.  Can Trump really resurrect the West from the dead?</p>
<p> </p>
<p><b>The persecution of Dr. Reiner Fuellmich: the biggest judicial scandal ever seen in Germany</b></p>
<p>by Seba Terribilini and Cynthia Salatino</p>
<p>April 17, 2025</p>
<p>Dr. Reiner Fuellmich is known and respected internationally for his work as a consumer defense lawyer and for having won major lawsuits against corporate giants such as Volkswagen, Kühne &amp; Nagel, and Deutsche Bank. He was one of the first persons who recognized that the COVID measures constituted crimes against humanity and decided, together with three other lawyers, to create the Corona Investigative Committee, whose aim was to shed light on the actions of governments, public institutions, and the medical community in the context of the so- called “pandemic”.</p>
<p>Thanks to his brilliant investigative work and after having consulted more than 150 scientists and experts around the world in all fields, as well as numerous whistleblowers (from Pfizer, WHO, CDC, UN), he was able to collect an abundance of evidence of what he calls “the biggest crime ever perpetrated against humanity.”</p>
<p>He was <u>ready to take action</u>.</p>
<p>However, the German secret services, in cooperation with Göttingen public prosecutor Simon Phillip John and Fuellmich’s accusers, had already decided to construct a case against Fuellmich, aimed at stopping him.</p>
<p>He is accused of having embezzled 700,000 euro but, in truth, he did not. The imminent threat of seizure of the Corona Investigative Committee’s bank accounts by the German government during the fallout of the COVID pandemic, along with the risk of no longer being able to use the funds raised by private donations to carry out their investigative work, Reiner Fuellmich and Viviane Fischer took steps to protect those funds. They purchased 1 million euros worth of gold (current value: 1.8 million euros) and each took out personal loans (700.000 euros to Reiner Fuellmich, and 100.000 euros to Viviane Fischer). Their loan agreements were documented in written, signed contracts.</p>
<p>When the defense demonstrated the erroneousness of the original accusation which asserted that Fuellmich had no authority to take a personal loan without the other committee member’s consent, the judge had to invent a new accusation in order to justify Fuellmich’s continued imprisonment. The judge thus declared that that the loans were “fake”.</p>
<p>What is interesting is that the previous Göttingen lead prosecutor Reinicke, who had been asked by the secret services to open an investigation on Fuellmich, had clearly stated that there were no grounds upon which to investigate him, and archived the case in June 2022. Merely two and a half months later, a young, inexperienced prosecutor by the name of Simon Phillip John was transferred from Hanover to Göttingen and given the task to do the dirty work that Reinicke had previously deemed unjustified.</p>
<p>Judge Carsten Schindler, as well as prosecutor John are, without any shadow of a doubt, following someone else’s instructions.</p>
<p>Dr. Reiner Fuellmich has been unlawfully held in pre-trial detention in the German maximum-security prison in Rosdorf for 18 months. This, despite the fact that the maximum term for pre-trial detention in Germany is 6 months. This, after his having been lured under false pretenses, subsequently abducted in Mexico, and then deported to Germany –without an international arrest warrant NOR a formal extradition order– where he was then arrested and imprisoned.</p>
<p>The circumstances of his illegal arrest and subsequent mistreatment in prison are very concerning.</p>
<p>From June 2024 until December 2024, Reiner Fuellmich was placed in solitary confinement. The official reason was that he was providing fellow inmates with legal advice. Fuellmich was also subjected to various forms of abuse, in clear violation of his human rights: physical and psychological mistreatment including prolonged solitary confinement, deprived of sunlight, deprived of outdoor physical activity, deprived of sleep, forced to choose between taking a shower or having his one-hour outdoors, and even prohibited from calling his lawyers. Aside from their brief (and monitored) telephone calls on Skype, he has not seen his wife since his arrest.</p>
<p>He is only permitted <u>three hours per month</u> of visits and telephone calls.</p>
<p>On top of that, he has been denied adequate medical care, including simple access to vitamins.</p>
<p>Moreover, Reiner was not allowed to visit his dying mother nor attend her funeral.</p>
<p>Both the inhumane prison conditions as well as the manner in which his trial is being conducted raise serious doubts about the level of respect for fundamental rights in the German judicial system.</p>
<p>From June 10, 2024 to this day, Reiner Fuellmich, after being body-searched, is brought to the court and back to prison in shackles and handcuffs, escorted by armed security officers in armored vehicles, as if he were a serial killer!</p>
<p>He is being denied a fair trial, in that any motions presented by his defense lawyers are rejected without explanation. As of July 2024, Judge Schindler ordered that the defense motions and arguments, instead of being read aloud to the court, were from then on to be presented in writing only, thus impeding court observers from understanding and properly documenting the proceedings. These same court spectators have been subject to threats, as have Fuellmich’s defense lawyers.</p>
<p>In addition to not permitting defense witnesses to take the stand, Judge Schindler steadfastly refuses to allow the person who actually pocketed the funds to testify in court.</p>
<p>This “kangaroo court” proceeding” is now in its final phase. As we write this, the defense lawyers have completed their closing statements, and Fuellmich has begun to make his final, closing statement before the court, which, in order to silence him, interrupted and admonished him at least 12 times. It is feared that the court may impose upon Fuellmich a time limit for the presentation of his final defense statement, <u>as they did to his defense lawyers</u>, forcing them shorten their closing statements.</p>
<p>In the course of 51 hearings, what we have witnessed is nothing less than an egregious case of obstruction of justice –a criminal offense in Germany– which confirms the intent of the German secret services as stated in their dossier on Reiner Fuellmich. This dossier was presented to the court by one of Fuellmich’s defense lawyers. It specified that Fuellmich was to be stopped “at all costs”; that “it is necessary to prepare a criminal case against Fuellmich, [including the] collaboration of prosecutors and suitable third parties”; and recommending “the recruitment and involvement of trusted persons amongst Fuellmich’s closest circle.”</p>
<p>It was also their stated objective to convict Fuellmich; that “the possibility of [him] obtaining a politically exposed position must be prevented by any means”. This dossier, provided by a whistleblower, demonstrates that Reiner Fuellmich was already under special surveillance as far back as 2021.</p>
<p>That said, it is beyond a shadow of a doubt that Reiner Fuellmich had to be stopped in order to prevent him from continuing his precious investigational work exposing the truth regarding the “pandemic” as well as the so-called “vaccines”.</p>
<p>Fuellmich is clearly a political prisoner, punished for having spoken the truth. His case demands the attention of international human rights organizations, as well as the indignation of worldwide public opinion.</p>
<p>Pre-trial detention must never be used as an instrument to defer, suppress, or completely substitute the justice system in the form of a legitimized punishment without a sentence.</p>
<p>Justice, free speech, and respect for fundamental human rights are the pillars of a democratic state, not only for <u>but especially for </u>those individuals who raise uncomfortable questions and have the courage to speak up.</p>

The following day, April 19th, saw what has become known as "the shot heard 'round the world" beginning the American Revolution.The successful outcome of our Revolution and the subsequent building of the American Republic established the proof of principle which, in the words of John Quincy Adams, "...demolished at a stroke the lawfulness of all governments founded upon conquest. It swept away all the rubbish of accumulated centuries of servitude." Over the past decades, that critical global role of United States in combating colonial exploitation and federalism has been so undermined and erased by a corrupt Anglo-American establishment that few Americans today even know anything about it!This Friday, I will be joined by renowned historian Anton Chaitkin who has just released the second volume of his two-volume work "Who We Are: America's Fight for Universal Progress" for a fascinating discussion of how we can now return our nation to that noble mission.<br><br><span>(Feed generated with <a href="https://fetchrss.com/feedLink?w=67af770b1916a673960ab842" target="_blank">FetchRSS</a>)</span>

To you the crib is still a boundless space!<br>Become a man and see how small the boundless world becomes!<br>—</em>The Child in the Cradle, Friedrich Schiller</p>
<p>In Schiller’s “To A Young Friend (As He Dedicates Himself to Philosophy)”, the poet recasts the Classical Greek ideal of honor, virtue and fortitude within the context of the most Herculean of all human enterprises—the quest for <em>Truth</em>.</p>
<p>A good number of Schiller’s poems deal with the human challenge of wrestling with the divine questions of philosophy i.e. the love of wisdom. On several occasions, Schiller’s poems depict younger, passionate souls who are sadly unprepared for the monumental task.</p>
<p>The consequences are fatal.</p>
<p>Examples include his novel <a href="https://www.gutenberg.org/files/6781/6781-h/6781-h.htm"><em>The Ghost Seer</em></a> and his poem “<a href="https://ageofmuses.substack.com/p/ancient-egypt-the-wisdom-of-giants">The Veiled Image at Sais</a>”, among others. In <em>The Ghost Seer</em>, a young Venetian prince who sought the “peaceful quietude of a private life” wastes valuable time on superficial metaphysical speculations and indiscriminate, leisurely study.</p>
<p>Schiller writes:</p>
<p>“He read much, but without discrimination. As his education had been neglected, and, as he had early entered the career of arms, his understanding had never been fully matured. Hence the knowledge he afterwards acquired served but to increase the chaos of his ideas, because it was built on an unstable foundation.”</p>
<p>One after another, relatives in the royal line of succession mysteriously perish. As the prince moves closer and closer to becoming the heir apparent, shadowy political operators emerge. After a series of seemingly inexplicable circumstances, the prince is lured into a labyrinth of political intrigue and ultimately abandons his powers of discernment in favor of the magical and occult. In reality, what he believed to be supernatural events and inexplicable phenomena were simply the clever magic tricks of a seasoned Venetian intelligence operative.</p>
<p>In “<a href="https://thechainedmuse.substack.com/p/egypt-moses-and-the-mysteries-schillers?utm_source=publication-search">The Veiled Image at Sais</a>”, the neophyte can’t resist lifting the veil of absolute reality, which hangs over a mysterious statue of Isis. Against the counsels of an old Egyptian priest, the boy throws caution to the wind, breaches the temple, and resolutely raises the veil. The next morning, he’s found lying unconscious beside the statue’s pedestal, traumatized for the remainder of his short life.</p>
<p>In this light, Schiller’s “To a Young Friend” offers a series of heroic counsels and sagely maxims which are usually only haphazardly considered by Truth seekers. Composed as a series of couplets in epic hexameter, the verses explore a subject which is daring and heroic in spirit, but cautionary in nature.</p>
<p>The poem reads:</p>
<h2 data-sanitized-class="wp-block-heading"><strong>To a Young Friend (As He Dedicates Himself to Philosophy)</strong></h2>
<p><em>By Friedrich Schiller</em></p>
<p>The Grecian youth would have to overcome great enmity,<br>Before uncovering Eleusis’ deepest mysteries.<br>Are you mature enough to step within this sanctuary,<br>Where grey-eyed Pallas guards her hallowed wisdom’s treasury?<br>Are you aware of what awaits you there? How dear the prize?<br>That for <em>uncertain</em> greatness you must pay a <em>certain</em> price?<br>Are you resolved to bear life’s most exacting strife and woes,<br>Where heart and reason, sense and thought, must come to blows?<br>And are you strong enough to slay the everlasting beast,<br>The Hydra—doubt—to face the one within with manliness?<br>And with the shrewdest eyes, and playful innocence of youth,<br>To unmask all the fair illusions tempting you as <em>Truth</em>?<br>Step away if you cannot trust the guiding voice within!<br>Save yourself from the gulf, step away from the tempting brim!<br>Around the steps of those who sought the light, night’s often closed;<br>But in the gentle twilight, see how safely childhood goes!</p>
<p><em>Translation © David B. Gosselin</em></p>
<p>Like many of Schiller’s poems, “To a Young Friend” offers what we in modern speak might call a “teachable moment.”</p>
<p>Using images drawn from Classical Greek mythology, “To a Young Friend” describes the characteristics required of anyone hoping to wrestle with the higher questions of Truth and leap over the many chasms strewn along its way.</p>
<p>Perseverance and fortitude in the face of adversity and life’s monumental roadblocks are emphasized. But can strength and determination of spirit alone overcome life’s most legendary obstacles?</p>
<p>The poem’s conclusion cautions those who think so.</p>
<p>The discerning faculties required to appreciate what lies within the inner sanctum of Pallas-Athene’s sacred temple—her “hallowed wisdom’s treasury”—involve being prepared for situations, “Where heart and reason, sense and thought, must come to blows”. But how to prevail when neither thought nor reason alone suffice?</p>
<p>While self-determination and ambition are prerequisites for overcoming life’s greatest trials, the poem’s playful conclusion reminds us that night has closed around the footsteps of many ambitious individuals “who sought the light”.</p>
<p>So, what were they missing?</p>
<p>One of Schiller’s most famous maxims states that man “is only truly man when he <em>plays.</em>” But does that really mean having a Dungeons and Dragons-themed night with the boys or straddling monkey bars at your local playground? For Schiller, a man animated by a spirit of <em>play</em> never loses the wisdom of the naïve—of the childlike heart. Here, a childlike spirit ironically becomes the thing that carries men over life’s most perilous chasms. A purity of imagination and lightness of heart allows them to leap over the kinds of spiritual gulfs where heavier hearts and austere spirits must ultimately sink, due to the weightiness of their own stern conceits and rigid logical frameworks.</p>
<p>One can also think of Schiller’s poetical resolution as the combined wisdom of two of the most memorable, but seemingly contradictory passages from Scripture.</p>
<p>In 1 Corinthians 13:11, Paul declares:</p>
<p>“When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put away childish things.”</p>
<p>Mathew 19:13 recounts Jesus stating:</p>
<p>“Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.”</p>
<p>Schiller integrates these two forms of timeless wisdom into a metaphorical poem which resolves the ostensible opposition between two kinds of <em>genius</em>:playful imagination and rigorous reason, or a childlike heart and disciplined mind. The spirit which matures to full-ripened manhood and preserves its childlike innocence will be able to <em>play</em> through life’s most complex dramas. They will be able to leap over the seemingly infinite gulfs where some of history’s most determined Truth seekers have fallen.</p>

<div><img src="https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/1.jpg" data-sanitized-class="ff-og-image-inserted"></div><p>Under President Donald J. Trump, America is back — leveraging environmental policies rooted in reality to promote economic growth while maintaining the standards that have afforded Americans the cleanest air and water in the world for generations.</p>
<p>Unlike the previous administration, which wasted billions of taxpayer dollars on virtue signaling and ineffective grifts, the Trump Administration’s policies are rooted in the belief that Americans are the best stewards of our vast natural resources — no “Green New Scam” required.</p>
<p><strong>Here are key actions President Trump is taking on the environment:</strong></p>
<h3 data-sanitized-id="h-president-trump-is-promoting-energy-innovation-for-a-healthier-future" data-sanitized-class="wp-block-heading"><strong>President Trump is promoting energy innovation for a healthier future.</strong></h3>
<p>By supporting cutting-edge technologies like <a href="https://news.bloombergtax.com/tax-insights-and-commentary/trumps-energy-emergency-sets-up-carbon-capture-as-a-solution">carbon capture</a> and storage, nuclear energy, and next-generation geothermal, the Trump Administration is ensuring America leads in both energy production and environmental innovation — producing the cleanest energy in the world. Moreover, by ending the Biden-era pause on liquefied natural gas export approvals, the U.S. is sharing cleaner energy with allies, reducing global emissions, and creating American jobs — building on President Trump’s first-term successes, where the U.S. <a href="https://trumpwhitehouse.archives.gov/issues/energy-environment/">led the world</a> in greenhouse gas emission reductions.</p>
<h3 data-sanitized-id="h-president-trump-is-championing-sound-forest-management" data-sanitized-class="wp-block-heading"><strong>President Trump is championing sound forest management.</strong></h3>
<p>The Trump Administration’s proactive forest management policies protect America’s forests, reduce catastrophic wildfires, and promote sustainable land use. By streamlining regulations and <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/2025/03/fact-sheet-president-donald-j-trump-rapidly-expands-timber-production/">expanding</a> responsible logging, President Trump is safeguarding millions of acres of forestland, improving wildlife habitats, and supporting rural economies at the same time.</p>
<h3 data-sanitized-id="h-president-trump-is-ending-the-forced-use-of-paper-straws" data-sanitized-class="wp-block-heading"><strong>President Trump is</strong> <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/2025/02/fact-sheet-president-donald-j-trump-ends-the-procurement-and-forced-use-of-paper-straws/"><strong>ending</strong></a> <strong>the forced use of paper straws.</strong></h3>
<p>Not only are paper straw mandates flawed in their alleged scientific backing, they’re also bad for humans and the environment. According to a <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/National-Strategy-to-End-the-Forced-Use-of-Paper-Straws.4.10.pdf">new report</a>, paper straws contain dangerous PFAS chemicals — “forever chemicals” linked to significant long-term health conditions — that infiltrate the water supply. Moreover, studies have found producing paper straws can have a larger carbon footprint and require more water than plastic straws for “approximately zero environmental impact.”</p>
<h3 data-sanitized-id="h-president-trump-is-cutting-wasteful-regulations-that-stifle-innovation-and-raise-costs" data-sanitized-class="wp-block-heading"><strong>President Trump is cutting wasteful regulations that stifle innovation and raise costs.</strong></h3>
<p>Actions like pausing restrictive emissions rules for coal plants and revising the National Environmental Policy Act implementation have accelerated responsible energy and infrastructure projects while maintaining rigorous environmental standards — saving American families thousands annually on energy bills and proving that a strong economy and a healthy environment go hand-in-hand.</p>
<h3 data-sanitized-id="h-president-trump-is-protecting-public-lands" data-sanitized-class="wp-block-heading"><strong>President Trump is protecting public lands.</strong></h3>
<p>The Trump Administration has prioritized access to federal lands for energy development while ensuring responsible management. By <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/declaring-a-national-energy-emergency/">opening</a> more federal lands and waters for oil, gas, and <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/03/immediate-measures-to-increase-american-mineral-production/">critical mineral extraction</a>, the U.S. is strengthening energy security and reducing reliance on foreign resources. Simultaneously, investments in conservation, such as <a href="https://trumpwhitehouse.archives.gov/briefings-statements/president-donald-j-trump-committed-conserving-improving-americas-environment/">$38 billion</a> in clean water infrastructure during President Trump’s first term, continue to safeguard America’s natural heritage for future generations.</p>
<h3 data-sanitized-id="h-president-trump-is-pushing-back-on-unfair-trade-practices-that-harm-the-environment-and-undercut-u-s-producers-and-exporters" data-sanitized-class="wp-block-heading"><strong>President Trump is pushing back on unfair trade practices that harm the environment and undercut U.S. producers and exporters.</strong></h3>
<p>For years, foreign countries have taken advantage of our generosity at the expense of American workers and the environment. Deforestation in Brazil is at a <a href="https://x.com/USTradeRep/status/1914668721949356258">15-year high</a>, China’s <a href="https://x.com/USTradeRep/status/1914668723803213963">unfair, harmful fishing practices</a> flood the global market with illegal fish and deplete stocks, and Mexico <a href="https://x.com/USTradeRep/status/1914668727125057808">fails to deter illegal fishing</a> — all while enjoying massive trade deficits with the U.S. and contributing to global environmental degradation.</p>
<h3 data-sanitized-id="h-president-trump-is-cracking-down-on-china-the-most-prolific-polluter-in-the-world" data-sanitized-class="wp-block-heading"><strong>President Trump is cracking down on China — the most prolific polluter in the world.</strong></h3>
<p>According to <a href="https://www.reuters.com/article/business/environment/worlds-oceans-clogged-by-millions-of-tons-of-plastic-trash-idUSKBN0LG34U/">Reuters</a>, China is “responsible for the most ocean plastic pollution per year with an estimated 2.4 million tons, about 30 percent of the global total.” By imposing tough trade measures and promoting American manufacturing, the Administration is reducing reliance on China’s high-pollution industries, ensuring the U.S. leads by example with cleaner production and responsible global stewardship.</p>
<h3 data-sanitized-id="h-president-trump-is-protecting-wildlife" data-sanitized-class="wp-block-heading"><strong>President Trump is protecting wildlife.</strong></h3>
<p>By <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/temporary-withdrawal-of-all-areas-on-the-outer-continental-shelf-from-offshore-wind-leasing-and-review-of-the-federal-governments-leasing-and-permitting-practices-for-wind-projects/">pausing</a> certain wind projects, President Trump is recognizing wind turbines’ detrimental environmental impact, particularly on wildlife, which often outweighs their benefits.</p>

I’m not the one who says history automatically restarts at the most recent act of aggression, thereby making any amount of retaliatory violence against civilians a justified response to an unprovoked attack for which the vengeful bear no responsibility. This isn’t my position. It’s theirs.</p><iframe src="https://cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?type=text%2Fhtml&amp;key=a19fcc184b9711e1b4764040d3dc5c07&amp;schema=twitter&amp;url=https%3A//x.com/DrewPavlou/status/1913804159163486491&amp;image=" width="500" height="281" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allow="accelerometer; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin"><a href="https://medium.com/media/57d0463186e59b02f528bde493ac7eb0/href">https://medium.com/media/57d0463186e59b02f528bde493ac7eb0/href</a></iframe><p>I personally think it would be terrible if the backlash for the Gaza holocaust leads to attacks on civilians. I personally do not believe any amount of violence no matter how horrific would excuse acts of collective punishment targeting civilians in the way Israel has been targeting civilian populations with deadly force in Gaza. But we all know such attacks are probably going to happen at some point, and it isn’t my reasoning which says that the perpetrators would bear no culpability for their actions. This is the reasoning of the Israel apologists.</p><p>If you believe Hamas is to blame for Israel’s actions in Gaza, then by your own logic you must necessarily accept that Israel is to blame for any backlash against those actions. If you don’t accept this then you are admitting your position isn’t guided by reasoning at all, and that you simply believe Israel should magically be able to inflict as much butchery and suffering on civilians as it likes without ever creating any natural consequences or backlash of any kind. Your mind exists in a fantasy world wherein Israel has some kind of divinely ordained exclusive right to violent force.</p><p>In the early months of the Gaza genocide, Palestine supporters began pointing out the contradictory logic which holds that nothing Israel did could justify October 7, but October 7 justifies anything Israel might do. At no time have Israel apologists ever deviated from this line of reasoning. This self-contradictory position has now become <a href="https://www.caitlinjohnst.one/p/trumps-state-department-would-support">the official line at the White House</a>, where all questions from the press about Israel’s atrocities in Gaza are met by assertions from Trump’s podium people that all blame for those atrocities rests exclusively at the feet of Hamas.</p><p>By that exact same logic, any blame for the violent extremism and antisemitism which is going to ensue from Israel’s actions in Gaza rests exclusively at the feet of Israel. This isn’t my reasoning. It’s theirs.</p><iframe src="https://cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?type=text%2Fhtml&amp;key=a19fcc184b9711e1b4764040d3dc5c07&amp;schema=twitter&amp;url=https%3A//x.com/haaretzcom/status/1870888281203675437&amp;image=" width="500" height="281" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allow="accelerometer; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin"><a href="https://medium.com/media/f02af995f77884e9d269ba551846d546/href">https://medium.com/media/f02af995f77884e9d269ba551846d546/href</a></iframe><p>In reality it has always been baby-brained thinking to begin the historical record at the moment of the most recent aggression and pretend Hamas attacked an innocent Israel completely unprovoked. It’s a narrative promoted by predatory manipulators and believed by weak-minded human livestock; Israel <a href="https://www.mintpressnews.com/gaza-concentration-camp/285976/">was horrifically abusive</a> to the people of Gaza prior to October 7, and had been <a href="https://x.com/_ZachFoster/status/1766181245728292882">routinely attacking and killing</a> Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank in the months prior.</p><p>Israel apologists yell “Blame Hamas!” whenever people decry the genocidal atrocities taking place in Gaza in order to excuse Israel from its obvious culpability in those crimes. But it’s a paper-thin argument which can’t withstand the slightest amount of critical thought. You can’t whatabout your way into genocide being morally defensible. That is not a thing.</p><p>_________________</p><p><em>My work is </em><a href="https://caitlinjohnstone.com/2021/05/24/my-experiments-with-hacking-capitalism/"><em>entirely reader-supported</em></a><em>, so if you enjoyed this piece </em><a href="https://www.caitlinjohnst.one/about"><em>here are some options</em></a><em> where you can toss some money into my tip jar if you want to. </em><a href="https://caitlinjohnstone.com/"><em>Click here for links for my mailing list, social media, books, merch, and audio/video versions of each article</em></a><em>.

To succeed, he must identify the true enemy of peace, the corporate oligarchy, especially in military-defense industries, and the banking and financial sectors which profit from Permanent War imposed to defend the special private interests of the global oligarchy.

<p>There Will Be No Ukrainian Peace Deal</p>
<p>Paul Craig Roberts</p>
<p>There cannot be a peace deal when President Trump only proposes that Russia keep Crimea, which Russia did not take in war but in an unanimous vote of the population in Crimea to be reunited with Russia from which Crimea had been torn.</p>
<p>Trump has not included in the deal Russian Donbas, which also voted to be returned to Russia or the other Russian areas that Russian forces have liberated and have been reincorporated into Russia.</p>
<p>In other words, so far, other than Crimea, President Trump has offered President Putin none of the former Russian territory that is now again part of Russia herself.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Is the implication that Putin must hand back to Ukraine the territory from which Russian soldiers have driven out Ukrainian soldiers?<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>So Putin’s 3+ years of war was all for nothing?</p>
<p>Zelensky himself, treated by Trump as Ukraine’s leader despite the fact that Zelensky’s term has expired and he is no longer legally or constitutionally the president of Ukraine, states that he will not even discuss recognizing Crimea as Russian territory:<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Crimea “is our territory, the territory of the people of Ukraine. We have nothing to talk about on this topic.”<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span><a href="https://www.rt.com/russia/616120-ukraine-crimea-recognition-zelensky/">https://www.rt.com/russia/616120-ukraine-crimea-recognition-zelensky/</a><span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>To understand how absurd Zelensky is, consider that Crimea is the home since the 1700s of the base of Russia’s Black Sea Navy, Russia’s access to the Mediterranean.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>As Zelensky appears to have a veto, even Trump’s partial concession to Russia has no chance. <span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>Trump threatens that he will walk away from the negotiations.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>That w0uld be a good thing if he takes American weapons and money when he goes. <span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>Zelensky would be left to deal with Putin, perhaps an easy task as Putin and Lavrov continue to bleat for negotiations, neglecting their responsibility to win a war that has gone on for far too long drawing in the US and Europe.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>It seems Zelensky is relying on Britain and France to send their troops to continue the fight against Russia. The French president is talking about extending France’s nuclear umbrella to include Ukraine.</p>
<p>Putin and Lavrov<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> seem to prefer</span> a negotiated deal to a military victory.  Would the Kremlin accept a deal that requires Russia to give up battlefield successes won at a large cost in Russian life, the life of young men lost and gone and unavailable to create needed Russian population?  Is it Putin’s hope for a Great Power Agreement that has prolonged the conflict?</p>
<p>A great power agreement happens only among great powers, but President Putin has convinced the West that Russia is irresolute, averse to using force, and only wants a negotiated settlement to the conflict with Ukraine, for which Putin will pay almost any price, no matter the humiliation.</p>
<p>Russia’s inability to bring a war with Ukraine to a victorious conclusion after more than three years of fighting negates any recognition of Russia as a great power as far as the West is concerned.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Even Britain and France feel confident to fight Russia. Several of the NATO countries are saying that they are preparing for war with Russia.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>The Baltic states are even interdicting Russian shipping.</p>
<p>Putin’s conduct of the war has convinced the West that he is irresolute and averse to fighting.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>The choice facing Putin is:<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Surrender or win a victory and impose the peace.</p>

<div dir="auto" data-sanitized-class="tgme_widget_message_text js-message_text">I keep noticing stories about the huge power consumption by data centers, dominated by artificial intelligence number crunching.<br><br>If you step back and look at the digital versus biological analog modes, it’s rather striking; digital slams It’s basic signals between low and high voltages, whereas biological systems, while they may have spiking aspects, the fundamental relation relies on the nuance of precise balance between delicate fluctuations.<br><br>These two modes are like polar opposites, one slamming the value to extremes of digital high and low, and another delicately balancing tiny analog values, using feedback on the edge of stability.<br><br>So while digital requires the most power, biological analog seems to require the least.<br><br>This reminds me of the contrast between Brunelleschi’s dome, and the Roman Parthenon dome.<br><br>Brunelleschi‘s Dome relies on the elegance of least action, using the concentric hanging chains to center the rising tiers of dome construction…<br><br>Whereas the Roman Parthenon dome was just the brute force approach, with really thick walls.<br><br>The main attraction of the digital mode was its rejection of noise, but it’s a brute-force solution.<br><br>Not to mention that it’s also highly mechanistic and deterministic, to the point of absurdity. <br><br>(randomness has to be “simulated”, using pseudo-random principles.)<br><br>You get the sense that despite its benefits, digital is doing everything the hard way by virtue of its mechanistic nature. <br><br>It’s like it’s always trying to crawl back to the analog roots of reality, but through a maximally winding path.<br><br>It also has a mindset reminiscent of a brainwashing cult, where everything is viewed through the discrete lens.<br><br>I joke that it starts early with things like Legos, which I consider a form of childhood Aristotelian brainwashing, where all building blocks are predetermined, and strictly bottom-up, and feedback is relegated to be a distant mystical conception.</div><br><br><span>(Feed generated with <a href="https://fetchrss.com/feedLink?w=67e85ccd68d9b987fd0b48f3" target="_blank">FetchRSS</a>)</span>

<p>[Originally published in <a href="https://trendcompass.substack.com/p/trump-vs-the-bankers-is-the-struggle">this morning’s TrendCompass report</a>] </p><p>In <a href="https://trendcompass.substack.com/p/of-empires-collateral-and-financial">last Thursday’s report</a> I referenced Regan Boychuk’s article in which he made a credible case about the way $9 trillion in Alberta oil resources were turned into legal collateral for US banks and used that collateral to conjure $5 trillion in mortgage debt and inflate the 2000s housing bubble. The bursting of that bubble precipitated the 2008 Global Financial Crisis and unprecedented bank bailouts for a group of <a href="https://www.fsb.org/2024/11/2024-list-of-global-systemically-important-banks-g-sibs/">Global Systemically Important Banks</a>, while plunging 8 million American families into foreclosure.</p><p>On Monday, I published a more thorough report about this on my personal Substack, titled “<a href="https://alexkrainer.substack.com/p/gods-of-finance-and-gods-of-war?r=cpxww">Gods of finance and dogs of war</a>,” along with a 19-min. video, which is <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6TdD3bdb-o&amp;t=295s">also available on YouTube</a>. One of the reasons why I believe this story is so relevant is because it strongly suggest an element of criminal conspiracies at the heart of our financial systems, which seem to employ credit to inflate financial bubbles, then collapses them, producing the familiar sequence of booms and busts and the seemingly chronic state of financial crises</p><div data-sanitized-class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe471797b-9e15-487a-8013-c3af47234912_1218x685.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM" data-sanitized-class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img"><div data-sanitized-class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe471797b-9e15-487a-8013-c3af47234912_1218x685.png" width="1218" height="685" data-attrs='{"src":"https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/e471797b-9e15-487a-8013-c3af47234912_1218x685.png","srcNoWatermark":null,"fullscreen":null,"imageSize":null,"height":685,"width":1218,"resizeWidth":null,"bytes":1092262,"alt":"","title":null,"type":"image/png","href":null,"belowTheFold":false,"topImage":true,"internalRedirect":"https://trendcompass.substack.com/i/161951566?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe471797b-9e15-487a-8013-c3af47234912_1218x685.png","isProcessing":false,"align":null}' alt="" title="" fetchpriority="high" data-sanitized-class="sizing-normal"></picture><div data-sanitized-class="image-link-expand"><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-reset icon-container restack-image"><path d="M3 12a9 9 0 0 1 9-9 9.75 9.75 0 0 1 6.74 2.74L21 8"></path><path d="M21 3v5h-5"></path><path d="M21 12a9 9 0 0 1-9 9 9.75 9.75 0 0 1-6.74-2.74L3 16"></path><path d="M8 16H3v5"></path></div><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-reset icon-container view-image"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></div></div></div></div></a><figcaption data-sanitized-class="image-caption">The war of words is already escalating.</figcaption></figure></div><h2>Japan’s 1980s <em>everything </em>bubble</h2><p>In his masterful book “<a href="https://princesoftheyen.com/">Princes of the Yen</a>,” economist <strong>Richard Werner</strong> detailed how and to what end Japan’s 1980s asset bubble was deliberately inflated by the banking interests, and how it was then deliberately collapsed, leaving the Bank of Japan in full control of Japan’s economy. Having interviewed many bankers, Dr. Werner concluded that, the BOJ “forced the banks to increase lending” in the 1980s by as much as 15% per annum, knowing full well that to reach that quota, they had to increase non-productive loans (the word subprime was not yet in vogue).</p><p>The bursting of the Japan bubble in 1990 took a heavy human toll afflicting ordinary people and businesses. In the immediate aftermath of the stock market crash, more than 5 million Japanese lost their jobs and could not find employment elsewhere. Suicide became the leading cause of death for men aged between 20 and 44. From 1990 to 2003, more than 212,000 Japanese firms went bankrupt and land prices in major cities declined by as much as 84%. But again, the bankers did well for themselves. The BOJ won more than independence: it set itself above the law and took sovereign control over Japan’s economy.</p><p>Fast forward to 2019, when we could better appreciate <a href="https://asia.nikkei.com/Business/Markets/Bank-of-Japan-to-be-top-shareholder-of-Japan-stocks">the ultimate fruits of BOJ’s labours</a>: <strong>at the end of March 2019, the BOJ was among the top 10 shareholders of nearly half of all companies listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, representing 4.7% of the total capitalization of the first section of Tokyo Stock Exchange</strong>. It also held 75% of all exchange-traded funds and 43% of all Japanese Government Bonds representing over 100% of the country’s GDP. Thus, the BOJ has appropriated and is continuing to appropriate large segments of Japanese economy with money drawn from its own printing presses, all behind the smokescreen of crises, stabilizations, rescues, stimuli, quantitative easings, etc. Like with Alberta oil, the process ultimately amounts to nothing but plunder on a colossal scale.</p><h2>The scramble for Ukraine</h2><p>Today we are witnessing a scramble for Ukraine’s resources, which I covered in <a href="https://alexkrainer.substack.com/p/ukraine-rare-earths-deal-the-empires?r=cpxww">an earlier report</a>. Presumably, these are coveted by Western banking interests for similar ends, except that since Trump’s inauguration this scramble seems to be at the center of a growing hostility between the United States and her European “allies,” led by Great Britain. These struggles are happening behind the scenes so they are difficult to discern from media reports and the pronouncements and speeches by public leaders.</p><p>However, <em>something</em> odd clearly <em>is</em> going on and the result is that the US is drifting away from its postwar alliances and closer to Russia. This could have a massive impact on both US and European economies, but we’ll be obliged to interpret events by reading between the lines. I listen to multiple podcasts by many different analysts and even where they have a certain access to high-level decision makers, like <strong>Col. Lawrence Wilkerson</strong> or Professor <strong>Jeffrey Sachs</strong>, educated guesswork seems to be the rule. We simply can’t be sure what’s really going on, let alone how it might end.</p><p data-attrs='{"url":"https://trendcompass.substack.com/p/trump-vs-the-bankers-is-the-struggle?utm_source=substack&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_content=share&amp;action=share&amp;token=eyJ1c2VyX2lkIjoyMTM2NTc0NCwicG9zdF9pZCI6MTYxOTUxNTY2LCJpYXQiOjE3NDU0MjQ5MDYsImV4cCI6MTc0ODAxNjkwNiwiaXNzIjoicHViLTMxNTA5NjgiLCJzdWIiOiJwb3N0LXJlYWN0aW9uIn0.bSyPP1zpqbh08RVknMdQnghum7H4yvfJIqg8yr4F9IY","text":"Share","action":null,"class":"button-wrapper"}' data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton" data-sanitized-class="button-wrapper"><a href="https://trendcompass.substack.com/p/trump-vs-the-bankers-is-the-struggle?utm_source=substack&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_content=share&amp;action=share&amp;token=eyJ1c2VyX2lkIjoyMTM2NTc0NCwicG9zdF9pZCI6MTYxOTUxNTY2LCJpYXQiOjE3NDU0MjQ5MDYsImV4cCI6MTc0ODAxNjkwNiwiaXNzIjoicHViLTMxNTA5NjgiLCJzdWIiOiJwb3N0LXJlYWN0aW9uIn0.bSyPP1zpqbh08RVknMdQnghum7H4yvfJIqg8yr4F9IY" data-sanitized-class="button primary button-wrapper"><span>Share</span></a></p><h2>Two systems are before the world</h2><p>I suspect that Trump’s ultimate agenda could be aimed at returning the United States to Alexander Hamilton’s American System of political economy and away from the British free trade system. The difference is that the American System allocates credit for industrialization and productive ends while the British free trade system credits nonproductive uses aimed at inflating, then bursting asset bubbles. <strong>Abraham Lincoln</strong>'s chief economic advisor <strong><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Charles_Carey">Henry C. Carey</a></strong> contrasted the two systems in his 1851 work, "The Harmony of Interests" (I’m grateful to Cynthia Chung and Matthew Ehret for sharing their research into this). Carey wrote as follows:</p><blockquote><p>"<em>Two systems are before the world; the one looks to increasing the proportion of persons and of capital engaged in trade and transportation, and therefore to diminishing the proportion engaged in producing commodities with which to trade, with necessarily diminished return to the labour of all; while the other looks to increasing the proportion engaged in the work of production, and diminishing that engaged in trade and transportation, with increased return to all, giving the labourer good wages, and to the owner of capital good profits.</em></p><p><em>One looks to increasing the quantity of raw materials to be exported, and diminishing the inducements to imports of men, thus impoverishing both farmer and planter by throwing on them the burden of freight; while the other looks to increasing the import of men and diminishing the export of raw materials, thereby enriching both planter and farmer by relieving them from payment of freight.</em></p><p><em>One looks to giving the [products] of millions of acres of land and of the labour of millions of men for the [services] of hundreds of thousands of distant men; the other to bringing the distant men to consume on the land the products of the land, exchanging day's labour for day's labour.</em></p><p><em>One looks to compelling the farmers and planters of the Union to continue their contributions for the support of the fleets and the armies, the paupers, the nobles and the sovereigns of Europe; the other to enabling ourselves to apply the same means to the moral and intellectual improvement of the sovereigns of America.</em></p><p><em>One looks to the continuance of that freedom of trade which denies the principle of protection, yet doles it out as revenue duties; the other by extending the area of legitimate free trade by the establishment of perfect protection, followed by the annexation of individuals and communities, and ultimately by the abolition of customs-houses.</em></p><p><em>One looks to exporting men to occupy desert tracts, the sovereignty of which is obtained by aid of diplomacy or war; the other to increasing the value of an immense extent of vacant land by importing men by millions for their occupation.</em></p><p><em>One looks to the centralization of wealth and power in a great commercial city that shall rival the great cities of modern times which have been and are being supported by aid of contributions which have exhausted every nation subjected to them; the other to concentration, by aid of which a market shall be made upon the land for the products of the land, and the farmer and planter be enriched.</em></p><p><em>One looks to increasing the necessity of commerce; the other to increasing the power to maintain it.</em></p><p><em>One looks to underworking the Hindoo, and sinking the rest of the world to his level; the other to raising the standard of man throughout the world to our level.</em></p><p><em>One looks towards universal war; the other towards universal peace.</em></p><p><em>One is the English system; the other we may be proud to call the American system, for it is the only one ever devised the tendency of which was that of elevating while equalizing the condition of man throughout the world."</em></p></blockquote><p>The American System turned the United States from a patchwork of disjointed British colonies into the world's most prosperous and most powerful nation. It is possible that in his effort to “Make America Great Again,” Trump wants to return it to that system. However, he obviously can’t come out and state this openly: all eight U.S. presidents who have either been assassinated or “mysteriously died” in office were promoters of Hamilton’s American System. Those presidents were <strong>William Henry Harrison</strong> (9th, 1941), <strong>Zachary Taylor</strong> (12th, 1850), <strong>Abraham Lincoln</strong> (16th, 1865), <strong>James Garfield</strong> (20th, 1881), <strong>William McKinley</strong> (25th, 1901), <strong>Warren G. Harding</strong> (29th, 1923), <strong>Franklin D. Roosevelt</strong> (32nd, 1945), and <strong>John F. Kennedy</strong> (35th, 1963).</p><p>I know, someone will object: nowaitjustaminute, FDR died of polio, everyone knows that! Sure, but that might have been fake news.

This abused statement has become almost a parody in our modern age, as everything becomes art, and everything- regardless of its ugliness becomes raised to a pedestal of beauty. This loss of any principled standards of beauty in society may have more to do with the loss of those cultural standards which any society requires to judge truthful or dishonest ideas, the ugliness of lies and the beauty of truth.</p>
<p>It is not a coincidence taht the greatest artists and scientists throughout human history have understood that beauty, truth and the highest order of freedom are not only interconnected, but provide the soul the most natural and effective pathway to attain wisdom.</p>
<p>In this Rising Tide Foundation study group, the beautiful poem Hymn to Intellectual Beauty, authored by Percy Bysshe Shelley is evaluated as we strived re-discover the mind, intention and ideas of the immortal author by unpacking his composition and choice of rich metaphors and ironies.</p>

title: Tragedy, Dialogue, and Politics: Applying Tragedy’s Therapy to Russian Relations with the West

<p>When we refer to something as a tragedy, we typically mean that something bad has happened over which we have no control. It is precisely our powerlessness to change these circumstances that we deem  “tragic.”</p>
<p>For the ancient Greeks, however, tragedy is something that human beings create by virtue of their obtuseness. The gods set up the conditions of our existence, but it is our own pride and arrogance that lead us to make choices that give offense to others and that spark their desire for revenge. Tragedy is thus not fated. It is something we have the power to mitigate, once we recognize our own role in creating it.</p>
<p>The repetition of offense followed by revenge, followed by renewed offense, is called a tragic cycle. It repeats until it is broken, but this too is a choice that individuals must make. Therefore, understanding tragedy as the Greek did, rather than as we do now, restores human agency to politics.</p>
<p>Hence, my most succinct definition of tragedy is this: Tragedy results when, by trying to correct an injustice, we unwittingly perpetuate it.</p>
<p>The purpose of the performance of Greek tragedies was to teach citizens how to bring an end to chaos and restore order in their midst. Through the validation of the proper order of things (<em>deon</em>), the citizenry could be led away from <em>hubris</em> toward <em>catharsis</em>. This was accomplished through dialogue, reconciliation, and ultimately compassion, for unless Athenians could learn to share in the suffering of others, the circle of tragedy could never be brought to a close.</p>
<h2 data-sanitized-class="wp-block-heading"><strong>We Have Forgotten that Tragedy was Political Therapy</strong></h2>
<p>Tragedy’s most important function—to spark a dialogue among the citizenry on proper civic values and behavior—has been all but forgotten. Many social scientists today reject the tragic underpinnings of political realism. Even modern realists tend to see in tragedy only a reminder that politics can never result in anything but imperfect compromises. This has prevented us from appreciating tragedy’s therapeutic potential. The Greeks, by contrast, saw tragedy as a way to shape the character of Athenian citizens by demonstrating the proper content of a noble soul, and the type of actions that would be most beneficial to the community.</p>
<p>This difference between classical Greek tragedy and modern political realism has important implications. Political realists today generally pay too little attention to the social component of <em>ham<strong>a</strong>rtia</em> (error, misjudgment) and as a result rarely mention <em>catharsis</em>, which is crucial to the healing of society.<a href="https://risingtidefoundation.net/2025/04/22/tragedy-dialogue-and-politics-applying-tragedys-therapy-to-russian-relations-with-the-west/#_ftn1">[1]</a></p>
<h2 data-sanitized-class="wp-block-heading"><strong>The Role of Dialogue in Tragedy </strong></h2>
<p>Classical Greek tragedy forces people to reflect on what is timeless about the human condition by setting itself the task of improving the moral character and judgment of the citizenry, and thus of the <em>polis</em> as a whole. It is this improvement of the whole political community, rather than just its individual components, that modern social science seems to have all but abandoned.</p>
<p>Many people, even some diplomats and politicians, no longer understand the actual purpose of dialogue. They think it means communicating one’s desires to another party. But a prison warden does that with his inmates. One of the most ancient meaning of the word <em>logos</em>  means “to gather together.” Some scholars argue that in English it is best rendered as “relationship.” In this vein we hear the opening words of the Gospel according to St. John in a new context: “In the beginning was the Relationship . . .”<a href="https://risingtidefoundation.net/2025/04/22/tragedy-dialogue-and-politics-applying-tragedys-therapy-to-russian-relations-with-the-west/#_ftn2">[2]</a></p>
<p>Dialogue differs from conversation, discussion, or debate by being more concerned about the relationship of the participants than it is about the topic at hand. Its proper objective is not the achievement of a momentary agreement, but a self-transformation that will allow this and future agreements to be honored by establishing a new relationship. It is, in William Isaacs’ words, a conversation with a center, not sides.<a href="https://risingtidefoundation.net/2025/04/22/tragedy-dialogue-and-politics-applying-tragedys-therapy-to-russian-relations-with-the-west/#_ftn3">[3]</a>  </p>
<p>Classical Greek tragedy is thus, quintessentially, a series of dialogues in which we expose our own tragic flaws to ourselves. This exposure is meant to bring about <em>catharsis</em>—a purging of the soul that restores healthy perspective by removing toxic emotions and ambitions. It is therefore both improper and misleading to characterize the Obama administration’s “reset” as an attempt to foster dialogue. Drawing a distinction between technical agreements and values disagreements, as the authors of the reset did, is the exact opposite of true dialogue.</p>
<p>If tragedy results when social actors unwittingly perpetuate injustice through their efforts to abolish it, this implies that if the actors ever recognized what they were doing, and altered their behavior, the tragic cycle could be (temporarily) broken.</p>
<p>In <em>Eumenides</em>, the final play of his <em>Oresteia</em> trilogy, the Greek playwright Aeschylus lays out a strategy for accomplishing this. In a nutshell, it boils down to this: the protagonists must embrace a compassionate justice that extends to all, rather than a partial justice only for the few. It contains five steps:</p>
<p>      1) Anagn<strong>o</strong>risis, the loss of order in society must be recognized by all, so that it can be recreated through the combined efforts of the whole community;</p>
<p>     2) Catharsis, the purging of hatred, can begin when antagonists come to recognize themselves in their enemies; only then can confrontation give way to dialogue;</p>
<p>     3) Dialogue evokes compassion and forgiveness, the precursors to True Justice;</p>
<p>     4) True Justice allows for the creation of new, all-inclusive social institutions;</p>
<p>     5) Finally, social harmony is established when former enemies become stakeholders in the new social order by joining these new institutions, thereby completing the process of social transformation (metanoia).</p>
<p>Such a strategy offers the best hope of providing a lasting peace in two toxic environments—Ukraine and Russian-American relations.</p>
<h2 data-sanitized-class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Applying Tragedy’s Therapy to Ukraine</strong></h2>
<p><a>Like the Peloponnesian War, which Simon Critchley aptly describes as a “long suicide,” the crisis in Ukraine is a classic tragedy.</a><a href="https://risingtidefoundation.net/2025/04/22/tragedy-dialogue-and-politics-applying-tragedys-therapy-to-russian-relations-with-the-west/#_ftn4">[4]</a> In describing it as such, <a>I seek to highlight not only the cyclical nature of the internal conflict, but also to suggest a way out. </a></p>
<p>If Ukrainian history is a cycle of mutual grievances rooted in the persistent attempts of its two distinctive political cultures—Galician and Maloross—to resolve once and for all the issue of who gets to define Ukrainian identity, then the resolution to this conflict lies in recognizing how this very effort to “fix” Ukraine is in fact perpetuating the tragic cycle.</p>
<p>For the current government there, nationalism seems to offer a speedy, albeit violent, remedy. The difficulty with any nationalistic remedy, however, is that it ultimately aggravates social tensions. For harmony to be restored, society must embrace a form of justice that is acceptable to all parties in conflict. This means giving the Other (Russophone) Ukraine a stake in the construction and preservation of society.</p>
<p>This is precisely what Ukrainian governments have failed to do for the past three decades. They have acted like the proverbial Greek goddesses, the Furies, driven by a sense of righteous vengeance, both against Russia and against their own Russophone citizens, who are routinely vilified as a “fifth column” for Russia inside Ukraine.<a href="https://risingtidefoundation.net/2025/04/22/tragedy-dialogue-and-politics-applying-tragedys-therapy-to-russian-relations-with-the-west/#_ftn5">[5]</a> Breaking the tragic cycle will require that this so-called “fifth column” be given a meaningful stake in the social order.</p>
<h2 data-sanitized-class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Applying Tragedy’s Therapy to Russian Relations with the West</strong></h2>
<p>In international relations, true dialogue would imply a willingness to question the primacy of any world order, even the Liberal World Order. It also means abandoning the notion that the cultural values associated with that world order can be imposed by the West on the rest of the world. Pragmatically, however, one must acknowledge the tremendous fear of Western elites that this would result in the end of Western global dominance.</p>
<p>One way to overcome this fear might be to show Western elites how they could benefit from a more pluralistic world, and from cooperative global initiatives that are not predicated exclusively on Western leadership. For example, it might be argued that, by sharing the burden of maintaining order throughout the world with regional powers, the West could limit out-of-control defense spending (e.g., the Pentagon has never been successfully audited<a href="https://risingtidefoundation.net/2025/04/22/tragedy-dialogue-and-politics-applying-tragedys-therapy-to-russian-relations-with-the-west/#_ftn6">[6]</a>) to the actual needs of defense, rather than to the unbridled costs of maintaining global leadership. This would free up enormous domestic resources during this time of prolonged global recession. Moreover, sharing the cost of global security would set a good example for global burden sharing in other vital areas, where it is long overdue, such as climate change and global disease control.</p>
<p>I am not at all sanguine that this will actually happen, either in Ukraine or in the West, but I feel that without clearly identifying the tragic reasons for our repeated failures, the chances of finding workable solution to such problems become even more remote.</p>

But are these two worlds truly as disconnected as some believe?</p>
<p>Is it possible that the realm of metaphysics entirely shapes the unfolding of the physical universe and is it possible that the physical world may in fact be, as Plato, St Paul, Max Planck and countless other great minds throughout history believed- simply one particular expression of a broader spiritual world? From what source have the world’s greatest scientists and poets drawn when they have created their most edifying compositions?</p>
<p>In this Rising Tide Foundation lecture titled ‘Schiller, Shelley and Poe: The Manifestation of the Spiritual in the Material World’, poet and activist Daniel Leach addresses these questions and much with a focus on the minds, and works of three immortal poets: Friedrich Schiller, Percy Shelley and Edgar Poe.</p>

According to the Financial Times Russian President Putin Has Signaled His Readiness to Sell Out His Country

content:
<p>Breaking News</p>
<p>According to the Financial Times Russian President Putin Has Signaled His Readiness to Sell Out His Country</p>
<p>Paul Craig Roberts</p>
<p>This morning I wrote that Putin had so badly mishandled the Ukraine conflict that his only choice was surrender or military victory, a victory he has been avoiding for more than three years. If the Financial Times can be believed, Putin has chosen surrender, or perhaps more accurately, partial surrender or semi-surrender.</p>
<p>The Financial Times reports that “Vladimir Putin has offered to halt his invasion of Ukraine at the current front line as part of efforts to reach a peace deal with US President Donald Trump, according to people familiar with the matter.” [The Financial Times continues to display its ignorance or its partisanship by designating Russian military action limited to the Russian territories as an “invasion of Ukraine.” The Financial Times has proven so unreliable in its coverage that I cannot say I have confidence in this report.]</p>
<p>Moreover, the Financial Times reported that Putin told President Trump’s Special Envoy for Ukraine, Steve Witkoff, that Moscow could sweeten the deal by relinquishing Russia’s claims to areas of the four regions currently considered by the Kremlin to be part of Russia. This concession despite Putin himself having introduced constitutional amendments barring Russia from relinquishing claims to any of its territory.</p>
<p>Putin has yet again shown that nothing he says in defense of Russia means anything. All along Putin has said he would not accept any peace deal unless Ukraine withdrew its troops from the front lines and gave Moscow full control over the four provinces. Now suddenly Putin is willing to piss away a military victory and, perhaps, give back battlefield gains of Russian populated areas for a deal. This point is not clear.</p>
<p>The Financial Times says Putin has stepped back from his demands. When you refuse to play your winning cards, what kind of deal can you expect? By showing such desperation for a deal while winning on the battlefield, Putin has further enhanced his reputation as a person irresolute in war. The consequence for Russia will be another disastrous agreement, such as the Minsk Agreement, that will not be kept and that will evolve into worse conflict.</p>
<p>What Trump wants is not a Great Powers Agreement, but a settlement that lets Trump claim success in ending the conflict. Any agreement will not last beyond Trump’s term of office.</p>
<p>Here is the Financial Times report:<br>
Vladimir Putin offers to halt Ukraine invasion along current front line<br>
<a href="https://www.ft.com/content/5d848403-4a15-4592-888b-eb7b754ecb3a">https://www.ft.com/content/5d848403-4a15-4592-888b-eb7b754ecb3a</a></p>
<p>This is an amazing Financial Times news report for there not to be anything about it on RT, Sputnik, BBC, CNN, Los Angeles Times.</p>

You’re an adult. You have internet access. If you don’t know, learn. You can’t just go “it too compwicated, me no understandy, googoo gaga.” It’s not cute and it’s not okay. Grow the fuck up.</p><p>Not taking a position on Gaza IS taking a position on Gaza. One you’ll have to live with for the rest of your life. One you will be judged by history for. One you will have to explain to your grandkids. Failure to oppose a genocide that your own government is supporting is consenting to the genocidal status quo.</p><p>If this is the case with you, then that’s a character flaw, and you need to change it. It’s not okay for you to be that way. Knock that shit off.</p><p>❖</p><p>Israel is <a href="https://apnews.com/article/israel-palestinians-hamas-war-news-ceasefire-hostages-04-22-2025-f8c64015de5f56e97586641d6e32f507">destroying the heavy machinery</a> needed to clear rubble and rescue people trapped under buildings in Gaza.</p><iframe src="https://cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?type=text%2Fhtml&amp;key=a19fcc184b9711e1b4764040d3dc5c07&amp;schema=twitter&amp;url=https%3A//x.com/AssalRad/status/1914818312133087627&amp;image=" width="500" height="281" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allow="accelerometer; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin"><a href="https://medium.com/media/0f4ce531f267172de7aa2713dcbe26b6/href">https://medium.com/media/0f4ce531f267172de7aa2713dcbe26b6/href</a></iframe><p>Countless people have died slow, agonizing deaths <a href="https://news.un.org/en/story/2024/05/1149256">trapped under destroyed buildings</a> since this nightmare began. Have you ever taken the time to deeply contemplate that? What a horrifying way to die that is? Being alive but with your body partially crushed, alone and in agony unable to move in the darkness, surrounded by members of your family who are either dead or similarly trapped, possibly for days until you die of dehydration?</p><p>Maybe the worst part would be knowing that you’re surrounded by survivors who would like to get you out of there, but can’t because they don’t have the equipment necessary to move the enormous pieces of rubble overtop of you. Knowing you’re trapped, and you’re never getting out.</p><p>This has happened to people countless times since the beginning of this onslaught in 2023. And Israel is going out of its way to make sure even more people die this way.</p><p>❖</p><p>US ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee <a href="https://news.antiwar.com/2025/04/21/new-us-ambassador-to-israel-backs-israels-total-blockade-on-gaza/">has rejected</a> appeals by the World Health Organization to put pressure on Israel to end its starvation blockade on Gaza, saying, “What I would like to suggest is that we work together on putting the pressure where it really belongs — on Hamas.”</p><iframe src="https://cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?type=text%2Fhtml&amp;key=a19fcc184b9711e1b4764040d3dc5c07&amp;schema=twitter&amp;url=https%3A//x.com/USAmbIsrael/status/1914335973237805553&amp;image=" width="500" height="281" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allow="accelerometer; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin"><a href="https://medium.com/media/dffb1cf48ffcac594ebac45bb77e11ac/href">https://medium.com/media/dffb1cf48ffcac594ebac45bb77e11ac/href</a></iframe><p>Huckabee is a fanatical Christian Zionist who <a href="https://x.com/DecampDave/status/1856439018788995203">has said</a> that there is “no such thing as a Palestinian” and that Israel has a right to <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fRkV7Pnu4W8">the entirety of the West Bank</a>.</p><p>If you believe your religion tells you to support the butchery and starvation of the people of Gaza, then your religious beliefs are bad, and you should change them. There’s no point in having a religion if it doesn’t even help you understand that genocide is an inexcusable evil.</p><p>There’s too much religious tolerance in our society. If you believe your religion tells you to support an active genocide, then everyone should call you an asshole and tell you to get different beliefs.</p><p>I actually agree with conservatives who say we need to be less tolerant toward people with unwholesome religious beliefs — I just disagree about whom that intolerance should be directed toward. It’s not Muslims telling me it’s right to support the Gaza holocaust, it’s Christian Zionists and Jewish Zionists. They belong to death cults which tell them that God wants them to support these profoundly evil things. These death cults should not exist, and anyone who belongs to them should leave. It should not be even slightly controversial to say this.</p><p>I don’t care what you believe about any deity or deities or how we should live or what happens to us after we die. Believe whatever you want as pertains to you and yours. But if your religious beliefs tell you to support Israel’s daily massacres and mass starvation, then your religious beliefs are bad, and people should not be tolerant toward them.</p><p>____________________</p><p><em>My work is </em><a href="https://caitlinjohnstone.com/2021/05/24/my-experiments-with-hacking-capitalism/"><em>entirely reader-supported</em></a><em>, so if you enjoyed this piece </em><a href="https://www.caitlinjohnst.one/about"><em>here are some options</em></a><em> where you can toss some money into my tip jar if you want to. </em><a href="https://caitlinjohnstone.com/"><em>Click here for links for my mailing list, social media, books, merch, and audio/video versions of each article</em></a><em>.

Learning about all the ways we’ve been deceived and manipulated, learning the truth about war, militarism, imperialism, capitalism, authoritarianism, ecocide, and all the interrelated abuses and injustices caused by the systems and power structures we live under.</p><p>Awakening inwardly means becoming fully conscious of the ways in which we have been deceiving ourselves. Doing the inner work necessary to bring consciousness to the delusions and dysfunction within us and discovering what’s really true about our unquestioned assumptions regarding basic elements of our experience like self, other, time, space, thought, consciousness, and separation.</p><p>Both are necessary if our species is to survive into the future. We won’t be able to collectively organize the overthrow of the oppressive systems which are driving us toward extinction and dystopia until enough of us have a lucid understanding of how our world really works, and we won’t be able to act as individuals to give rise to a healthy world if we’re still wildly dysfunctional and egoically entranced.</p><p>And while both kinds of awakening do have areas of overlap, it’s entirely possible to be very awake in one while being fast asleep in the other. Most enlightenment teachers have spent their whole lives focusing entirely on inner awakening, and if you can get them talking about politics and foreign policy you’ll find that they tend to still be largely indoctrinated into the CNN worldview. Anyone who’s spent time in leftist and activist circles has met people who have all the correct opinions and understandings of politics and world affairs, but are extremely disruptive and impossible to work with as individuals because they’re plagued by inner misery and dysfunction.</p><p>It’s okay to have periods in your life where you focus on waking up in one way more than the other, but it is important to work toward both over the years. And by working on one you do help build a foundation for the other; someone with a lot of inner consciousness will have more wisdom and discernment to sort out fact from fiction when learning what’s true about the world, and someone who’s learning about the abuses in our world will have many opportunities for self-reflection and compassion by contemplating their own role in the dysfunction of our society and putting themselves in the shoes of those less fortunate.</p><p>It wasn’t always necessary for humans to awaken in both directions. Back when the citizenry had no means of organizing or controlling their society and humanity was divided by distance and language, the chieftains and monarchs were the ones with knowledge of what’s going on, while ordinary members of the public would leave society and go off to become hermits and monks in pursuit of enlightenment. Now in the 21st century we’re all increasingly interconnected and empowered with information around the world, as the existential hurdles facing our species grow rapidly more urgent. So the call is now to expand our consciousness both inwardly and outwardly.</p><p>We can’t keep living like this. We’ve got to wake up. We’ve got to become better. We’re never going to make it if we don’t awaken to the reality of our circumstances, both as individuals and as a collective.</p><p>_______________</p><p><em>My work is </em><a href="https://caitlinjohnstone.com/2021/05/24/my-experiments-with-hacking-capitalism/"><em>entirely reader-supported</em></a><em>, so if you enjoyed this piece </em><a href="https://www.caitlinjohnst.one/about"><em>here are some options</em></a><em> where you can toss some money into my tip jar if you want to. </em><a href="https://caitlinjohnstone.com/"><em>Click here for links for my mailing list, social media, books, merch, and audio/video versions of each article</em></a><em>.

Danny Davis talking about where the negotiations over the Trump peace plan for Ukraine are headed. We discussed Zelensky’s rejection of the plan and the fact that it is unacceptable to Russia as well. The Russians, however, had the good fortune that the Ukrainians were the first to reject the plan, which is sure to enrage Trump. Danny and I both agreed that this conflict is likely to be settled on the battlefield, which is not to Ukraine’s advantage. We also talked about the ongoing negotiations over Ukraine, where there is some reason to believe war may be avoided.</p>

With the simultaneous death of Pope Francis and the abrupt resignation of Klaus Schwab, the hosts unpack what they see as a symbolic changing of the guard, and a deeper spiritual and geopolitical shake-up.<br>Matt dives deep into the Vatican’s alignment with the WEF through the Council for Inclusive Capitalism, exposing Pope Francis’s ties to literal fascist regimes, the Jesuit agenda, and the Great Reset’s spiritual veneer. He traces the Pope’s ideological roots in liberation theology, Operation Condor, and the CIA-backed Argentine junta, raising urgent questions about Francis’s legacy and the Vatican’s role in weaponizing social justice as a tool of global control.<br>The duo also unpacks the rise of Gaia worship, anti-human eco-theology, and the rebranding of Christianity into a soft-power vehicle for Agenda 2030. Ghost joins in to explore the overlapping collapse of narrative control, the ritualistic timing of world events, and the maneuvering of Trump and Putin amid intensifying Middle East diplomacy and collapsing U.S. embassies abroad.<br>This episode is an unfiltered reckoning with history, symbolism, and the spiritual battle unfolding in real time.<br>**********************************************<br>Watch Breaking History Wednesdays at 12:00 PM ET<br>The Episode Archive can be found here: https://rumble.com/playlists/UGjyoorl4Q8<br><br>**********************************************<br>Gordon’s Twitter (X) handle is: <br>https://twitter.com/GhostofBPH<br>https://substack.com/@ghostofbasedpatrickhenry<br><br>************************************<br>Get Science Unshackled here<br>https://matthewehret.substack.com/p/my-new-book-has-now-hit-the-press<br><br>Matt and Cynthia's books:<br>https://canadianpatriot.org/untold-history-of-canada-books/<br><br>Episodes 1 and 2 of The Dystopic Mission of Mark Carney can be watched for free here: https://matthewehret.substack.com/p/the-dystopic-mission-of-mark-carney-a7a<br><br>Watch The Hidden Hand Behind UFOs episodes here:<br>https://canadianpatriot.org/2023/11/01/the-hidden-hand-behind-ufos-episode-1-lifting-the-esoteric-veil/<br><br>And for other films Ive created over the past couple of years, they are here:<br>https://canadianpatriot.org/cp-videos/<br><br>**********************************************<br><br>1) Make a donation to the Canadian Patriot<br>https://www.patreon.com/canadianpatriot<br>https://canadianpatriot.org/support-us/<br><br>2) Subscribe to Matt and Cynthia's Substack<br>https://matthewehret.substack.com/<br>https://cynthiachung.substack.com/<br><br>3) Buy some books!<br>https://canadianpatriot.org/untold-history-of-canada-books/<br><br>4) Subscribe to our Telegram Channels<br>https://t.me/CanadianPatriotPress<br><br>Since it is likely just a matter of time before this Youtube channel (https://www.youtube.com/@canadianpatriotpress3573) gets suspended again or taken down entirely, check out our alternative platforms:<br><br>On Rumble<br>https://rumble.com/user/MattEhret<br><br>On Bitchute:<br>https://www.bitchute.com/channel/FPD8fbk6o541/<br><br>On Odysee:<br>https://odysee.com/@canadianpatriotpress3573:4<br><br>On Soundcloud:<br>https://soundcloud.com/mattehret

What Happens to Us if President Trump Loses the Existential War with the Evil American Establishment?

content:
<p>What Happens to Us if President Trump Loses the Existential War with the Evil American Establishment?</p>
<p>Paul Craig Roberts</p>
<p>A few readers thought I went a bit too far in my column two days ago when I expressed concern that if President Trump loses the existential conflict between Mega Americans and the corrupt anti-American Establishment, a return to power of the Democrats will mean oppression for traditional white ethnic Americans.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Not in America, they said.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>But, yes, especially in America.</p>
<p>White heterosexual gentiles, especially males, have been second class citizens in the United States ever since Alfred Blumrosen at the EEOC stood the 1964 Civil Rights Act on its head and defied the clear statutory language in the legislation and imposed racial and gender quotas on white gentile heterosexual American men. These quotas have been in effect for 60 years, supplemented during the Biden regime with DEI-imposed quotas.</p>
<p>The American judiciary, despite the 14th Amendment absolutely requiring equality under the law and the clear unambiguous language of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, did nothing to enforce the Constitution and the Law.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>The American judiciary, the American corporations, the American universities accepted and enforced the illegal and unconstitutional racial and gender quoters.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Essentially, the quotas are still in place.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>The US Supreme Court ruled against them a year or two or so ago, but in a weak way that did not stop the Biden regime from extending them to DEI privileges and refusing to promote in the military based on merit.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Instead, the Biden regime placed racial and sexual constraints on military promotion. Promotions were not available for white heterosexual gentile males.</p>
<p>So what does law mean in the US?<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Nothing except the right to gain money by suing and the right of partisan Democrat judges to block the President of the United States from fulfilling his contract with the electorate. For example, currently 12 Democrat states are suing the Trump administration for alleged damages to them from tariffs which so far are nothing but negotiation tools.</p>
<p>There is no law.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>American Law Schools were taken over years ago and turned into instruments for overthrowing alleged white, racist America.</p>
<p>The George Soros-implanted Leticia James in New York is the perfect example of an Attorney General trained in law school to use law as a weapon against those in the way of revolutionizing American society. The electorate in New York is so indoctrinated and brainwashed that the people accept as attorney general a person committed to their demise. What was once our greatest state appears now to be our most stupid.</p>
<p>The same happened in journalism schools.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>I was an invited<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>lecturer for some period at the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism or at some program of the institution.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>I remember watching the transformation of journalist training from finding and reporting the facts to learning to use journalism to support narratives that advanced the agendas of the ruling establishment. It became the only path to employment and success, and the budding “journalists” moved willing into it.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Today they know no other function.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Today the normal function of journalists is to lie in support of the agendas of the American Establishment, which most certainly is not a Mega American establishment.</p>
<p>I don’t think Trump understands the strength of the forces that he has challenged.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>If you peruse the left-wing websites, you will acquaint yourself with the retaliation that is being prepared for the “Trump deplorables,” Hillary’s term, once Trump is defeated or out of office.</p>
<p>Without going there, let’s just consider what Democrat members of Congress, elected by Americans, have to say about the retaliation measures they will be able to use once Trump is gone.</p>
<p>Democrat US Representative Jamin Ben Raskin represents the 8th congressional district of Maryland. He is a graduate of Harvard and Harvard Law School. He led the impeachment of President Trump during Trump’s first term of office.</p>
<p>US Representative Raskin has issued a threat to everyone who does business with the Trump administration that “when we come back to power we are not going to look kindly.”</p>
<p>In other words, Raskin has clearly threatened repercussions for doing business of any kind with a lawfully elected government of the US.</p>
<p>This threat, of course, applies to the “domestic terrorists” who elected Trump.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Remember, it is Trump who is trying to restore America, and the Democrats who are trying to turn America into a Sodom and Gomorrah Tower of Babel.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>But Raskin, the Democrats, the left-wing and most of the white liberals regard President Trump’s effort to resurrect America as the imposition of fascism. In US Rep. Democrat Raskin’s words, “We’re going to restore strong democracy to America and we will remember who stood up for democracy in America and who tried to drive us down towards dictatorship and autocracy.”</p>
<p>Raskin is indicting the traditional Americans who elected Trump by such a large margin that the Democrats could not again steal the presidential election.</p>
<p>It is my opinion that Trump, his government, and his supporters do not understand that they are up against a more powerful destructive ideological force than America ever faced from the Soviet Union.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>The entirety of the Democrat Party, media, universities, deep state, are totally opposed to America and want to transform America into a Sodom &amp; Gomorrah Tower of Babel. <span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>How else can you explain decades of totally open borders?</p>
<p>How else can you explain teaching white kids that they, their parents, their grandparents are racists who exploit black people?</p>
<p>How else can you explain teaching kids that they are born into the wrong body and need sex change operations that their parents cannot prevent?</p>
<p>The United States is a crazy land as is all of the Western World.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>The Belief System that comprised Western Civilization has been destroyed by decades of propaganda from well-funded universities.</p>
<p>As I have said before, every institution that constitutes the United States has been hollowed out by decades of anti-American propaganda from American universities and public schools.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Those who defend America have been written out of public discussion and banned from the presstitute media. I used to be a Wall Street Journal editor and columnist, a columnist for Business Week, for the Scripts Howard News Service.  I was often on the major TV networks.  Today I am totally banned.  As a truth-teller, I am an enemy who must be suppressed.</p>
<p>Americans are very slow in realizing that the Democrats are an i<i>deological party,</i> like the Bolsheviks.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Democrats already know the truth and are unbothered by facts.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Facts are what serve the agenda.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>The truth is in the agenda. <span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>

With the simultaneous death of Pope Francis and the abrupt resignation of Klaus Schwab, the hosts unpack what they see as a symbolic changing of the guard, and a deeper spiritual and geopolitical shake-up.\nMatt dives deep into the Vatican’s alignment with the WEF through the Council for Inclusive Capitalism, exposing Pope Francis’s ties to literal fascist regimes, the Jesuit agenda, and the Great Reset’s spiritual veneer. He traces the Pope’s ideological roots in liberation theology, Operation Condor, and the CIA-backed Argentine junta, raising urgent questions about Francis’s legacy and the Vatican’s role in weaponizing social justice as a tool of global control.\n\nThe duo also unpacks the rise of Gaia worship, anti-human eco-theology, and the rebranding of Christianity into a soft-power vehicle for Agenda 2030. Ghost joins in to explore the overlapping collapse of narrative control, the ritualistic timing of world events, and the maneuvering of Trump and Putin amid intensifying Middle East diplomacy and collapsing U.S. embassies abroad.\n\nThis episode is an unfiltered reckoning with history, symbolism, and the spiritual battle unfolding in real time.\n**********************************************\nWatch Breaking History Wednesdays at 12:00 PM ET\nThe Episode Archive can be found here: https://rumble.com/playlists/UGjyoorl4Q8\n\n**********************************************\nGordon’s Twitter (X) handle is: \nhttps://twitter.com/GhostofBPH\nhttps://substack.com/@ghostofbasedpatrickhenry\n\n************************************\nGet Science Unshackled here\nhttps://matthewehret.substack.com/p/my-new-book-has-now-hit-the-press\n\nMatt and Cynthia's books:\nhttps://canadianpatriot.org/untold-history-of-canada-books/\n\nEpisodes 1 and 2 of The Dystopic Mission of Mark Carney can be watched for free here: https://matthewehret.substack.com/p/the-dystopic-mission-of-mark-carney-a7a\n\nWatch The Hidden Hand Behind UFOs episodes here:\nhttps://canadianpatriot.org/2023/11/01/the-hidden-hand-behind-ufos-episode-1-lifting-the-esoteric-veil/\n\nAnd for other films Ive created over the past couple of years, they are here:\nhttps://canadianpatriot.org/cp-videos/\n\n**********************************************\n\n1) Make a donation to the Canadian Patriot\nhttps://www.patreon.com/canadianpatriot\nhttps://canadianpatriot.org/support-us/\n\n2) Subscribe to Matt and Cynthia's Substack\nhttps://matthewehret.substack.com/\nhttps://cynthiachung.substack.com/\n\n3) Buy some books!\nhttps://canadianpatriot.org/untold-history-of-canada-books/\n\n4) Subscribe to our Telegram Channels\nhttps://t.me/CanadianPatriotPress\n\nSince it is likely just a matter of time before this Youtube channel (https://www.youtube.com/@canadianpatriotpress3573) gets suspended again or taken down entirely, check out our alternative platforms:\n\nOn Rumble\nhttps://rumble.com/user/MattEhret\n\nOn Bitchute:\nhttps://www.bitchute.com/channel/FPD8fbk6o541/\n\nOn Odysee:\nhttps://odysee.com/@canadianpatriotpress3573:4\n\nOn Soundcloud:\nhttps://soundcloud.com/mattehret","type":"application/x-shockwave-flash","height":390,"width":640,"thumbnails":["https://i1.ytimg.com/vi/0V40yqXpP3k/hqdefault.jpg"]}]}

The foundering financial systems of the trans-Atlantic threaten to disintegrate; they demand a new economic approach. The spectacular economic success of China, and its growing scientific and technological capabilities, demonstrate to the world that progress, indeed, very rapid progress, is possible. The inclination of U.S. President Trump toward peaceful resolution of both the NATO-Russia conflict playing out in Ukraine and the drummed-up Iran crisis, is an opportunity to build upon. In Europe, the anti-democratic nullification of elections and growing restrictions on individuals’ ability to speak and think freely, liberate other nations of the world to consider alternative approaches.\n\nA worldwide effort to install a new security and development architecture, to operate based on an understanding of the human species and its history, consonant with our identity as the only known creative species—this is the needed remedy today.\n\nThe International Peace Coalition meeting this Friday will address the terrible crises we face from the standpoint of the world as it should exist, fifty years from now. Courageous action, guided by an impassioned, legitimate view of the future, can bend the arc of history.","type":"application/x-shockwave-flash","height":390,"width":640,"thumbnails":["https://i2.ytimg.com/vi/1QyEBT1VC6Y/hqdefault.jpg"]}]}

{"enclosures":[{"url":"https://www.youtube.com/v/62MUeLdcv68?version=3","title":"The Decline of Europe: A Savage Civilization’s Slow Collapse | Shahid Bolsen","description":"In this powerful, unfiltered talk, Shahid Bolsen dismantles the myth of European civilization, revealing a future of managed decline, deindustrialization, demographic collapse, and technocratic repression. He explains how Europe has been written out of the future by the a-national Owners and Controllers of Global Financialized Capital (OCGFC), and why the continent's descent was inevitable—engineered by those who once built its wealth through exploitation and plunder.\n\nBolsen delivers a searing analysis of Europe’s coming irrelevance by 2075: a continent of scattered regions, no longer leading but surviving, policed by AI, ruled by debt, and stripped of sovereignty. From the Ukraine war to NATO realignment, he exposes how these are not miscalculations—they are mechanisms of euthanasia, not suicide.\n\nThis is not just a message to Europe. It is a wake-up call to the Global South. For those raised to idolize Europe, this talk turns the mirror around. The West was never a model of civilization—it was a masquerade of refinement masking a legacy of brutality, intellectual theft, and moral failure.\n\n🔔 Subscribe for more talks that challenge dominant narratives.\n\n#EuropeCollapse #ShahidBolsen #GlobalSouth #Geopolitics #ManagedDecline #Ukraine #OCGFC #WesternCivilization #MiddleNation","type":"application/x-shockwave-flash","height":390,"width":640,"thumbnails":["https://i3.ytimg.com/vi/62MUeLdcv68/hqdefault.jpg"]}]}

We will talk about the implication,  including access to billions of dollars in student aid, with The Hill's Education reporter Lexi Lonas.

Le Levant: prolongement historique, naturel, organique et civilisationnel de l'Orient et de l'Occident. Il est le seul à porter l'héritage de l'humanité dans un tissu social unifié, et il ne peut être sauvegardé que par des États laïques dont les constitutions s'élèvent au-dessus de la discrimination religieuse et sectaire.

title: American Businesses Rally Behind President Trump’s Tariffs to Save Manufacturing
author: ;The White House

<div><img src="https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/WH47-Social-Share-Card.jpg" data-sanitized-class="ff-og-image-inserted"></div><p>President Donald J. Trump’s decisive trade policies are igniting a resurgence in American manufacturing — earning fervent support from family-owned businesses and others nationwide who have suffered from decades of unfair trade practices. From steel forges to moldmakers, their voices echo a powerful truth: these policies aren’t just protecting jobs — they’re reviving the heart of American industry.</p>
<p><strong>Here’s what they’re saying:</strong></p>
<p><strong><em>Walker Forge, a third-generation family-owned business in Clintonville, Wisconsin, manufactures forgings out of steel for a variety of industries, including the defense industry.</em></strong></p>
<ul data-sanitized-class="wp-block-list"><li><strong>Will Walker (President):</strong> “This is the first time in generations that we have a President who puts American manufacturing first. That’s what these tariffs do — put America first. The tariffs send a clear message that companies cannot undercut our U.S. industrial base anymore.”</li>
</ul><p><strong><em>Franchino Mold &amp; Engineering, based in Lansing, Michigan, designs, engineers, builds, maintains, and repairs plastic injection molds.</em></strong></p>
<ul data-sanitized-class="wp-block-list"><li><strong>Mike Hetherington (President):</strong> “I represent Franchino Mold &amp; Engineering, and we are proud to be celebrating 70 years as a U.S. moldmaker this year. I find it extremely unfair that I can buy a complete injection mold from China for less than it costs me to purchase the raw materials to build it here in the United States. We are held to a high standard for labor, safety, quality, and environmental standards, which we proudly meet while competing against companies in China that don’t play by the same rules. They benefit from heavy government subsidies, lax labor standards, and artificially low prices that make it impossible for U.S. moldmakers to compete with China on price. Tariffs help level the playing field for U.S. moldmakers and force companies to look to U.S. moldmakers to supply them with products that meet their cost, quality and delivery needs. We are not asking for protection — we are asking for fairness!”</li>
</ul><p><strong><em>ELLWOOD, a 115-year-old family-owned business in Ellwood City, Pennsylvania, manufactures quality metals and custom engineered components for the world’s most demanding applications ranging from our nation’s defense to aerospace.</em></strong></p>
<ul data-sanitized-class="wp-block-list"><li><strong>Ben Huffman (President and CEO):</strong> “ELLWOOD supports President Trump’s efforts to reshape the global trading system to a fair system. The current unbalanced system puts U.S. manufacturing at a significant disadvantage. Unfair, country-subsidized trading practices that are occurring all over the globe continue to do significant harm to ELLWOOD and the historically damaging trade practices must be reversed.”</li>
</ul><p><strong><em>Dyersville Die Cast, based in Dyersville, Iowa, specializes in custom aluminum and zinc die cast manufacturing and secondary services, such as CNC machining and powder coat paint.</em></strong></p>
<ul data-sanitized-class="wp-block-list"><li><strong>Robert Willits (President):</strong> “I have been in my role for over 24 years — and during that time, I have witnessed many events that have convinced me that President Trump is 100% correct on tariffs. I fully support his fight to protect American manufacturers. God bless President Trump for keeping his promises.”</li>
</ul><p><strong><em>TK Mold &amp; Engineering, Inc., based in Romeo, Michigan, builds prototype and production molds for the consumer goods and automotive industries.</em></strong></p>
<ul data-sanitized-class="wp-block-list"><li><strong>Tom Barr (President):</strong> “TK Mold &amp; Engineering, Inc., is proud to be situated in the heart of America’s automotive sector. Thanks to recent tariff policies, we’re seeing a renewed interest in U.S.-based manufacturing. In just the past three days, we’ve received three requests for quotes specifically aimed at reshoring mold and molding production back to the United States. These tariffs are creating real opportunities for American businesses like ours by encouraging companies to bring work back home. We’re grateful for policies that support Main Street and help revitalize essential trades like moldmaking.”</li>
</ul><p><strong><em>Industrial Molds, Inc., a family-owned business in Rockford, Illinois, is a tool and die shop with 52 employees.</em></strong></p>
<ul data-sanitized-class="wp-block-list"><li><strong>Andy Peterson (CEO):</strong> “The implementation of tariffs has caused our customers to completely rethink their supply chains and source more work domestically. This has completely changed our forecast for the year to the better and we are looking to add more employees quickly.”</li>
</ul><p><strong><em>Legacy Precision Molds, Inc., based in Grandville, Michigan, specializes in the design and manufacturing of tight-tolerance plastic injection molds.  </em></strong></p>
<ul data-sanitized-class="wp-block-list"><li><strong>Tyler VanRee (Vice President):</strong> “The recent tariffs have had a noticeable and positive impact on our business. We’ve seen a significant increase in quote activity, have been awarded new work, and are seeing growing interest from companies exploring reshoring opportunities. At their current levels, the tariffs are driving real momentum toward U.S.-based manufacturing. We appreciate the administration’s commitment to strengthening American industry and we encourage them to continue to explore long-term solutions to help strengthen and rebuild American manufacturing again.”</li>
</ul><p><strong><em>Campbell Press Repair, based in Lansing, Michigan, is a second-generation family business servicing the metal forging and stamping industries with repair, rebuilding work on heavy machinery, modernization, automation, and new equipment, with 28 highly-talented employees.</em></strong></p>
<ul data-sanitized-class="wp-block-list"><li><strong>Pete Campbell (President):</strong> “Who knew about the tariff imbalances before President Trump brought them to light? As a small businessman competing in a world market, these things matter.”</li>
</ul><p><strong><em>Westminster Tool, Inc., based in Plainfield, Connecticut, is a plastic injection mold manufacturer that specializes in complex medical and surgical devices.</em></strong></p>
<ul data-sanitized-class="wp-block-list"><li><strong>Hillary Thomas (Vice President):</strong> “The manufacturing tariffs imposed by President Trump and his administration have benefited our business, similar to the wide-scale tariff effort in 2018. Following the recent announcement, our quote requests rose 25% in one month. These tariffs, particularly against China and other international competitors, help level the global manufacturing playing field for the moldmaking industry. We strongly support and encourage maintaining international tariffs that promote manufacturing here in the country.”</li>
</ul><p><strong><em>Metallus, Inc., based in Canton, Ohio, is a leading U.S. manufacturer of high-performance specialty metals made from recycled scrap metal for the industrial, automotive, aerospace, and defense and energy markets.</em></strong></p>
<ul data-sanitized-class="wp-block-list"><li><strong>Michael S. Williams (President and CEO):</strong> “We support the enforcement and expansion of 232 tariffs on steel products, as they align with our long-standing commitment to fair trade and addressing market imbalances. As a domestic steel producer, we view tariffs as a victory for both Metallus and the broader American steel industry.”</li>
</ul><p><strong><em>Twin Cities Die Casting, based in Minneapolis, Minnesota, is a 106-year-old, employee-owned die casting company with three locations in the Midwest and 175 employees.</em></strong></p>
<ul data-sanitized-class="wp-block-list"><li><strong>Todd Olson (CEO):</strong> “Our industry — and our company, specifically — has been greatly impacted by the increase in foreign competition, much of it with unfair support of other countries, over the last ten years. While the U.S. die casting market has grown over that time period, the U.S. industry has shrunk and production in low-cost countries has grown immensely.”</li>

<p>The Ukraine “Peace Deal”</p>
<p>April 25, 2025</p>
<p>Paul Craig Roberts</p>
<p>The details of the peace deal presented today by US special envoy Steve Witkoff are consistent with the report in the Financial Times discussed in my previous article and with Larry Sparano in the posted interview.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Putin will halt the Russian advance prior to driving Ukrainian soldiers out of all of the territory that has been reincorporated into Russia.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>It appears to be the case that the borders between Russia and Ukraine will be the current front line, so Putin is withdrawing Russia’s claim to the Russian territories still under Ukrainian occupation.</p>
<p>In exchange Washington will give de jure, that is legal, by right, recognition to Crimea as a constituent part of Russia, and Washington will give de facto, that is accept the facts on the ground whether legal or not, recognition of the Donetsk People’s Republic, the Luhansk People’s Republic, Zaporozhye, and Kherson as provinces of Russia according to the present boundaries in the conflict. <span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>By withholding de jure recognition of Russia’s battlefield gains, Ukraine can continue to claim, and demand return of, Russia’s battlefield gains. In other words, <strong>the agreement evades the central issue.</strong></p>
<p>According to the agreement, Ukraine must renounce all NATO aspirations.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>But Putin’s other demands, demilitarization and denazification of Ukraine are apparently not included in the agreement.</p>
<p>Washington will lift the sanctions against Russia, and there will be US-Russia economic cooperation, which seems to mean that Russia will open aspects of its economy to foreigners for exploitation, a disastrous Russian decision.</p>
<p>This is what the Russian oligarchs and Atlanticist Integrationists, who have never supported the war, want.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>How the Russia’s military feels about victory being shoved aside by a negotiated settlement is unknown.</p>
<p>But is it a settlement?<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Zelensky’s latest statement at this time of writing is that he will not concede a square inch of territory to Russia.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>If Zelensky has to be coerced, and as he is not legally or constitutionally the current president of Ukraine as his term of office has expired, successive Ukrainian governments can legitimately claim that the agreement is not valid.</p>
<p>Moreover,<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Ukraine and Europe have placed themselves behind an alternative agreement.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>In their proposed agreement, Ukraine will consent to begin talks with Russia, Europe, and the US about the territorial issues. Moreover, Ukraine will be granted US security guarantees similar to Article 5 in the NATO treaty.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>In other words, Ukraine becomes essentially a de facto member of NATO.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Additionally, there will be no restrictions on Ukraine’s armed forces or on the operations of foreign forces on Ukrainian territory, and Russia will compensate Ukraine for war damage.</p>
<p>Clearly, the two proposals have nothing in common.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Unless Europe gives in to Trump, a split is implied between the US and NATO, a split that could leave the US and Russia in an alliance that excludes Europe.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>I have no explanation why Europe is taking this risk.</p>
<p>As we can see from the facts, only two of the four parties agree to the deal. Moreover, even if there is a deal, in the absence of de jure recognition of Russia’s territorial claims, the deal amounts to little more than kicking the can down the road.</p>
<p>In fact, John Helmer says that the deal is just a mechanism, a cover, for moving Russia aside so that Washington can get on with its war with China.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>Here is how Helmer describes the situation:</p>
<p>“The politico-military strategy driving the US negotiators and prompting Trump’s tweets, is not a peace deal with Russia, nor even US withdrawal from the war in Europe. It is a strategy of sequencing one war at a time – the war in Europe to continue in the Ukraine with rearmed Germany, Poland and France in the lead, supported by Trump; and the US war against China in Asia.</p>
<p>“Sequencing these wars so as not to fight both enemies simultaneously – that’s the formula devised for Trump by Wess Mitchell, a former State Department appointee in the first Trump Administration,  and his business partner Elbridge Colby, now the third-ranking Pentagon official as Under Secretary of Defense for Policy.   ‘The essence of diplomacy in strategy,’ Mitchell has just declaimed in <em>Foreign Affairs</em>, ‘is to rearrange power in space and time so that countries avoid tests of strength beyond their ability.’ . . <span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>“Mitchell and Colby have convinced Trump and his negotiators that Russia has been badly damaged by the Ukrainian war which the Obama and Biden Administration have fought. Russian weakness, especially the perception that President Putin is both politically vulnerable and personally susceptible to US business inducements, is Trump’s strong card, and he should play it now.”</p>
<p>The goal is not peace, but to make money off of two wars: Europe and Ukraine’s war with Russia, and Washington’s war with China.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>And perhaps a war with Iran for Israel thrown in.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>Readers can listen to Helmer’s presentation of what he says is actually occurring in his discussion with Ray McGovern on Nima Alkhorshid’s program ( <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgG4ZmTZQww">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgG4ZmTZQww</a> ), and they can read it in several of Helmer’s recent articles in Dancing with Bears ( <a href="https://johnhelmer.net/one-war-at-a-time-and-plenty-of-money-to-be-made-in-the-meantime-this-is-trumps-game-as-the-russian-and-chinese-general-staffs-understand/">https://johnhelmer.net/one-war-at-a-time-and-plenty-of-money-to-be-made-in-the-meantime-this-is-trumps-game-as-the-russian-and-chinese-general-staffs-understand/</a> ).</p>
<p>Helmer’s source for his explanation of what is really happening is an article in <em>Foreign Affairs</em> by West Mitchell, Assistant Secretary of State for Europe and Eurasia in the first Trump term.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Mitchell is currently working with Trump’s current Undersecretary of Defense for Policy Elbridge Colby to sequence America’s wars with Russia and China as the US lacks the power to take on both simultaneously. Mitchell’s article was published on April 22, 2025, in the May/June 2025 issue of <em>Foreign Affairs</em>. <span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>Mitchell writes that the process of sequencing the wars with Russia and China should<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>begin “by bringing the war in Ukraine to an end in a way that is favorable to the United States. That means that when all is said and done, Kyiv must be strong enough to impede Russia’s westward advances” [for which no evidence exists, showing Mitchell’s mind to be controlled by the false narrative]. Washington should use the Korean War formula: “prioritize an armistice and push questions about a wider settlement into a separate process that could take years to bear fruit, it it ever does.”<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>This, of course, is what Washington’s de facto recognition of Russia’s territorial claims ensures.</p>
<p>Mitchell carelessly then reveals the intended deception of Babe-in-the-Woods Putin: “The United States should pursue a defense relationship with Ukraine akin to the one it maintains with Israel: not a formal alliance, but an agreement to sell, lend, or give Kyiv what it needs to defend itself. But it should not grant Ukraine [ de jure ] NATO membership. Instead, the United States should push European states to take responsibility for Ukraine—and for the security of their continent more generally.” This strategy capitalizes “on Putin’s special relationship with the Russian oligarchs” and dupes Kirill Dmitriev, Putin’s negotiator, ” into pressing the Kremlin to accept a short-term military armistice which stops well short of the demilitarization and denazification goals of the Special Military Operation.”</p>
<p>So, as Mitchell describes it, the “peace agreement” is a Washington deception to set up, yet again,  “Babe-in-the Woods Putin” for the eventual destruction of Russia.</p>
<p>Can I believe this?<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Yes, I can.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Helmer has<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>been watching things for a long time and reporting on them.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>This scenario is not a product of Helmer’s imagination.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  It is spelled out in</span> an article in <em>Foreign Affairs</em>, long the arbiter of American foreign policy. The author, West Mitchell, a former Trump high official, clearly holds to the neoconservative policy stated by Defense Undersecretary Paul Wolfwitz that the purpose of American foreign policy is hegemony over the world. If American hegemony requires war, war it is.</p>
<p>The Russians, with a large part of the mindless Russian establishment so desirous of being part of the West, have never paid any attention to the implication for Russian sovereignty of the neoconservative doctrine of US hegemony. This doctrine has not been denounced by President Trump. Consequently, Russia will be destroyed as the Russian government stupidly walks into deception after deception. Under Putin and Lavrov it will be one Minsk Agreement after another.</p>
<p>The question I have is:<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Is Trump a part of the deception not only of Putin but also of the American people, or is this a deal he has accepted without realizing its consequences because he is desperate to end the conflict as he promised? <span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> If Trump himself is part of the deception, then we have the explanation why the American Establishment did not prevent his reappearance in the Oval </span>Office.</p>

The video apparently shows Kneecap chanting “Up Hamas, up Hezbollah” at a London concert last November, which is the official reason the group is now under investigation.</p><p>By designating Hamas and Hezbollah as terrorist organizations and then passing laws against support for proscribed terrorist groups, the British government has effectively given itself the authority to stomp out any speech which can be deemed supportive of armed groups opposing Israel’s abuses in the middle east today, and has been using this authority to <a href="https://caityjohnstone.medium.com/more-authoritarian-crackdowns-on-speech-thats-critical-of-israel-7b43af329641">persecute journalists and activists</a> in the UK.</p><iframe src="https://cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?type=text%2Fhtml&amp;key=a19fcc184b9711e1b4764040d3dc5c07&amp;schema=twitter&amp;url=https%3A//x.com/KNEECAPCEOL/status/1915359052302819463&amp;image=" width="500" height="281" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allow="accelerometer; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin"><a href="https://medium.com/media/b9e8d280030732ab78ec86ef0159d8a1/href">https://medium.com/media/b9e8d280030732ab78ec86ef0159d8a1/href</a></iframe><p>This is just one of the latest incidents in the steady <a href="https://consortiumnews.com/2025/03/04/wests-support-for-israel-is-no-1-threat-to-free-speech/">assault on free speech rights</a> we’ve been seeing in the western nations that have aligned themselves with the state of Israel during the Gaza holocaust.</p><p>In Michigan the homes of pro-Palestine demonstrators <a href="https://x.com/DropSiteNews/status/1915121963191689711">are reportedly being raided</a> by the FBI and by state and local police, with numerous activists detained and electronic devices seized under search warrants.</p><p>A <a href="https://www.leefang.com/p/trump-admin-enacts-vast-censorship">new policy</a> unveiled by the Trump administration’s National Institutes of Health bans researchers and university employees from participating in any activism involving boycotts or divestment from the state of Israel, or even advocating such measures.</p><p>New York Police Department officers are <a href="https://jewishcurrents.org/training-nypd-keffiyeh-watermelon-antisemitism-israel-palestine">reportedly</a> attending training on combatting antisemitism which teaches them that keffiyehs and watermelons are antisemitic symbols, and that phrases like “settler colonialism” and “all eyes on Rafah” are examples of antisemitic hate speech.</p><p>On Thursday <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/tufts-rumeysa-ozturk-vermont-deportation-rcna202902">a judge ruled</a> that Tufts University student Rümeysa Öztürk shall be transferred to the state of Vermont as the Trump administration fights to deport her.

The demonstrators are heard telling him to walk around them, which is what any normal person does when they wish to be on the other side of a physical human body (or indeed any physical object), and you can clearly see people walking around them in the background of the video.</p><p>This is like walking up to a cheer squad in the middle of a human pyramid, demanding to walk through them, and then claiming they refused to do so because they hate your religion. It’s just so transparently bat shit insane, but it’s being shared around in all seriousness by Zionist pundits and politicians as a sign of an antisemitism crisis at a prominent university. This is the kind of evidence that’s being cited for the need to stomp out free speech in our society.</p><p>I’m going to keep saying it and saying it until the message gets through: Zionism is the single greatest threat to free speech in the western world today. Nothing is eroding people’s rights to free expression faster than the support that western governments have for the apartheid state of Israel and the atrocities it is committing.</p><p>This isn’t just about Gaza now. It’s not just about some strangers in the middle east. It’s about you. It’s about your rights. It’s about your right to tell the truth, even if the truth makes your leaders feel uncomfortable.</p><p>Even if you are not a sufficiently moral and compassionate person to oppose a genocide on its own merit, at this point you should at least be opposing the erosion of your own personal liberties for your own sake.</p><p>______________</p><p><em>My work is </em><a href="https://caitlinjohnstone.com/2021/05/24/my-experiments-with-hacking-capitalism/"><em>entirely reader-supported</em></a><em>, so if you enjoyed this piece </em><a href="https://www.caitlinjohnst.one/about"><em>here are some options</em></a><em> where you can toss some money into my tip jar if you want to. </em><a href="https://caitlinjohnstone.com/"><em>Click here for links for my mailing list, social media, books, merch, and audio/video versions of each article</em></a><em>.

So you must never, ever say “Fuck Israel, Free Palestine.”</p><p>Who do you think you are, saying “Fuck Israel, Free Palestine”? Don’t you know that by saying “Fuck Israel, Free Palestine” you are causing the people who applaud the deliberate starvation of an entire civilian population to become emotionally upset?</p><p>Instead of saying “Fuck Israel, Free Palestine,” you should try putting yourself in the shoes of the tender-hearted individuals who support the complete ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people. They’re just minding their own business, merrily celebrating the carpet bombing of a giant concentration camp full of children, and then you come along and ruin their day by saying “Fuck Israel, Free Palestine”? What a cruel and hateful thing that would be.</p><p>I mean, all they are doing is cheerleading the mutilation, evisceration and incineration of children, and the assassination of journalists and medical workers, and the systematic destruction of civilian infrastructure, and the complete flattening of an entire region whose population they are methodically exterminating via bullets, bombs, starvation and disease. It’s not like they’re doing anything nasty or disgusting like saying offensive words. Offensive words like “Fuck Israel, Free Palestine.”</p><p>So don’t say “Fuck Israel, Free Palestine.” Under no circumstances should anyone ever say “Fuck Israel, Free Palestine.” And they must certainly never say “Fuck Israel, Free Palestine” as many times as they possibly can, every single day until Palestine is free, and get everyone else to say it constantly as well.</p><p>Again, the phrase you must avoid saying at all cost is Fuck Israel, Free Palestine.</p><p>Fuck Israel, Free Palestine.</p><p>____________</p><p><em>My work is </em><a href="https://caitlinjohnstone.com/2021/05/24/my-experiments-with-hacking-capitalism/"><em>entirely reader-supported</em></a><em>, so if you enjoyed this piece </em><a href="https://www.caitlinjohnst.one/about"><em>here are some options</em></a><em> where you can toss some money into my tip jar if you want to. </em><a href="https://caitlinjohnstone.com/"><em>Click here for links for my mailing list, social media, books, merch, and audio/video versions of each article</em></a><em>.

You don’t need to come up with any elaborate conspiracy theories to see it. It’s right there, completely unhidden.</p><p>It’s not hidden, it’s just spun. Disguised by <a href="https://consortiumnews.com/2023/06/05/caitlin-johnstone-15-reasons-why-media-dont-do-journalism/">the propaganda of the mass media</a> who frame this holocaust as a war of defense in response to a terrorist attack while constantly diverting our attention to other far less significant issues.</p><p>It says so much about the power of the imperial propaganda machine that Trump could openly admit to having been fully controlled by Adelson cash on the campaign trail, get elected, and then facilitate a blatant extermination campaign in Gaza while aggressively stomping out free speech that is critical of Israel throughout the United States — and somehow not have this be the main thing that everyone talks about all the time. It is only because our minds are being forcefully manipulated by the powerful at mass scale that this has been the case.</p><iframe src="https://cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?type=text%2Fhtml&amp;key=a19fcc184b9711e1b4764040d3dc5c07&amp;schema=twitter&amp;url=https%3A//x.com/mtracey/status/1837886438903357920&amp;image=" width="500" height="281" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allow="accelerometer; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin"><a href="https://medium.com/media/2b7b60568bea7f2ba35f4110be65ebb3/href">https://medium.com/media/2b7b60568bea7f2ba35f4110be65ebb3/href</a></iframe><p>The narrative spin is greatly aided by the fact that Trump isn’t doing much different from the previous president here. A public which has been indoctrinated from childhood into seeing everything in Democrat-vs-Republican binaries is conditioned to focus far more on the differences between the two parties than the similarities. But you can learn a whole lot more about real power and what’s actually going on in the world by paying less attention to how US presidents differ from each other, and more attention to the ways in which they are the same.</p><p>The mass-scale psychological manipulation is so pervasive and ubiquitous that only a small minority are reacting to history’s first live-streamed genocide with an appropriate level of horror. If Americans could see what their government is doing in their name with fresh eyes and uncallused hearts, the nation’s capitol would be burnt to the ground within days. But because their vision is clouded by propaganda indoctrination they can’t see it, so they overlook what’s right in front of them while awaiting a gigantic Epstein bombshell or UFO disclosure or some other Big Reveal that never comes.</p><p>Consider the possibility that the Big Reveal has already happened. That it’s been right here staring you in the face this entire time, but you haven’t noticed its significance because it has been constantly normalized for you throughout your life since you were small. That the truth behind all your most sparkly conspiracy theories could be published online tomorrow, and it still wouldn’t tell you as much about what your rulers are doing and how evil they are as what’s already happening in plain sight.</p><p>This is the dystopia we were warned about. It’s not some ominous threat looming on the horizon. It’s here. We are being psychologically manipulated at mass scale into consenting to the most nightmarish atrocities imaginable. Children’s bodies are being shredded to bits right in front of us. And when you turn on the TV you see famous people laughing and making jokes with fake plastic grins, babbling about vapid nonsense. This is the dystopia. It isn’t on its way. It’s here.</p><iframe src="https://cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?type=text%2Fhtml&amp;key=a19fcc184b9711e1b4764040d3dc5c07&amp;schema=twitter&amp;url=https%3A//x.com/caitoz/status/1915701683344265617&amp;image=" width="500" height="281" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allow="accelerometer; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin"><a href="https://medium.com/media/e85ebcafd3ecbe49f8070da0fbfe0993/href">https://medium.com/media/e85ebcafd3ecbe49f8070da0fbfe0993/href</a></iframe><p>We don’t need a Big Reveal. If the Big Reveal happened next week, the public would be indoctrinated into overlooking and dismissing it by the imperial spin machine by the weekend. We don’t need new information, we need people to truly see the information that’s already here. To see it with eyes that are free from the cataracts of propaganda conditioning, with hearts that are free from the calluses of desensitization. Waking the public up is less about whistleblowers, FOIA requests and investigative journalism at this point than it is about finding creative and artistic ways to get people noticing the information that’s already public.</p><p>And the good news is that we can all help do this. We can all help our fellow members of the public to see what’s really happening with fresh eyes. Using our creativity, our humor, our insight and our compassion, we can find new ways every day to open a new pair of eyelids to the truth of our present circumstances.</p><p>Our rulers do not have creativity. They do not have humor, insight or compassion. These are not tools that they have in their toolbox, and they have no weapons to counter them. All they have is manipulation, and manipulation only works if you don’t know it’s happening to you. Our task is to keep finding new and creative ways to help more people see and understand the ways in which they have been manipulated.</p><p>_______________</p><p><em>My work is </em><a href="https://caitlinjohnstone.com/2021/05/24/my-experiments-with-hacking-capitalism/"><em>entirely reader-supported</em></a><em>, so if you enjoyed this piece </em><a href="https://www.caitlinjohnst.one/about"><em>here are some options</em></a><em> where you can toss some money into my tip jar if you want to. </em><a href="https://caitlinjohnstone.com/"><em>Click here for links for my mailing list, social media, books, merch, and audio/video versions of each article</em></a><em>.

La page historique du nazisme et de ses atrocités ne s’est pas refermée avec la défaite de l’Allemagne nazie il y a 80 ans. Le nazisme hitlérien -nous démontre l’Histoire – fut un instrument de domination de l’Occident. Il n’y a donc pas de quoi s’étonner que le nazisme soit réapparu en Europe quand l’Occident a de nouveau attaqué la Russie en organisant le coup d’État en Ukraine.

<p>A Peace Deal or a Deception</p>
<p>Is Putin Again Being Deceived, or Are Putin and Trump Deceiving Their Own Populations?</p>
<p>Paul Craig Roberts</p>
<p>The details of the peace deal presented  by US special envoy Steve Witkoff are consistent with the report in the Financial Times discussed in my previous article and with Larry Sparano in the posted interview.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Putin will halt the Russian advance prior to driving Ukrainian soldiers out of all of the territory that has been reincorporated into Russia.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>It appears to be the case that the borders between Russia and Ukraine will be the current front line, so Putin is withdrawing Russia’s claim to the Russian territories still under Ukrainian occupation.</p>
<p>In exchange Washington will give de jure, that is legal, by right, recognition to Crimea as a constituent part of Russia, and Washington will give de facto, that is accept the facts on the ground whether legal or not, recognition of the Donetsk People’s Republic, the Luhansk People’s Republic, Zaporozhye, and Kherson as provinces of Russia according to the present boundaries in the conflict.</p>
<p>By withholding de jure recognition of Russia’s battlefield gains, Ukraine can continue to claim, and demand return of, Russia’s battlefield gains. In other words, <strong>the agreement evades the central issue.</strong></p>
<p>According to the agreement, Ukraine must renounce all NATO aspirations.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>But Putin’s other demands, demilitarization and denazification of Ukraine are apparently not included in the agreement.</p>
<p>Washington will lift the sanctions against Russia, and there will be US-Russia economic cooperation, which seems to mean that Russia will open aspects of its economy to foreigners for exploitation, a disastrous Russian decision.</p>
<p>This is what the Russian oligarchs and Atlanticist Integrationists, who have never supported the war, want.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>How the Russia’s military feels about victory being shoved aside by a negotiated settlement is unknown.</p>
<p>But is it a settlement?<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Zelensky’s latest statement at this time of writing is that he will not concede a square inch of territory to Russia.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>If Zelensky has to be coerced, and as he is not legally or constitutionally the current president of Ukraine as his term of office has expired, successive Ukrainian governments can legitimately claim that the agreement is not valid.</p>
<p>Moreover,<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Ukraine and Europe have placed themselves behind an alternative agreement.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>In their proposed agreement, Ukraine will consent to begin talks with Russia, Europe, and the US about the territorial issues. Moreover, Ukraine will be granted US security guarantees similar to Article 5 in the NATO treaty.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>In other words, Ukraine becomes essentially a de facto member of NATO.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Additionally, there will be no restrictions on Ukraine’s armed forces or on the operations of foreign forces on Ukrainian territory, and Russia will compensate Ukraine for war damage.</p>
<p>Clearly, the two proposals have nothing in common.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Unless Europe gives in to Trump, a split is implied between the US and NATO, a split that could leave the US and Russia in an alliance that excludes Europe.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>I have no explanation why Europe is taking this risk.</p>
<p>As we can see from the facts, only two of the four parties agree to the deal. Moreover, even if there is a deal, in the absence of de jure recognition of Russia’s territorial claims, the deal amounts to little more than kicking the can down the road.</p>
<p>In fact, John Helmer says that the deal is just a mechanism, a cover, for moving Russia aside so that Washington can get on with its war with China.</p>
<p>Here is how Helmer describes the situation:</p>
<p>“The politico-military strategy driving the US negotiators and prompting Trump’s tweets, is not a peace deal with Russia, nor even US withdrawal from the war in Europe. It is a strategy of sequencing one war at a time – the war in Europe to continue in the Ukraine with rearmed Germany, Poland and France in the lead, supported by Trump; and the US war against China in Asia.</p>
<p>“Sequencing these wars so as not to fight both enemies simultaneously – that’s the formula devised for Trump by Wess Mitchell, a former State Department appointee in the first Trump Administration,  and his business partner Elbridge Colby, now the third-ranking Pentagon official as Under Secretary of Defense for Policy.   ‘The essence of diplomacy in strategy,’ Mitchell has just declaimed in <em>Foreign Affairs</em>, ‘is to rearrange power in space and time so that countries avoid tests of strength beyond their ability.’ . .</p>
<p>“Mitchell and Colby have convinced Trump and his negotiators that Russia has been badly damaged by the Ukrainian war which the Obama and Biden Administration have fought. Russian weakness, especially the perception that President Putin is both politically vulnerable and personally susceptible to US business inducements, is Trump’s strong card, and he should play it now.”</p>
<p>The goal is not peace, but to make money off of two wars: Europe and Ukraine’s war with Russia, and Washington’s war with China.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>And perhaps a war with Iran for Israel thrown in.</p>
<p>Readers can listen to Helmer’s presentation of what he says is actually occurring in his discussion with Ray McGovern on Nima Alkhorshid’s program ( <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgG4ZmTZQww">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgG4ZmTZQww</a> ), and they can read it in several of Helmer’s recent articles in Dancing with Bears ( <a href="https://johnhelmer.net/one-war-at-a-time-and-plenty-of-money-to-be-made-in-the-meantime-this-is-trumps-game-as-the-russian-and-chinese-general-staffs-understand/">https://johnhelmer.net/one-war-at-a-time-and-plenty-of-money-to-be-made-in-the-meantime-this-is-trumps-game-as-the-russian-and-chinese-general-staffs-understand/</a> ).</p>
<p>Helmer’s source for his explanation of what is really happening is an article in <em>Foreign Affairs</em> by West Mitchell, Assistant Secretary of State for Europe and Eurasia in the first Trump term.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Mitchell is currently working with Trump’s current Undersecretary of Defense for Policy Elbridge Colby to sequence America’s wars with Russia and China as the US lacks the power to take on both simultaneously. Mitchell’s article was published on April 22, 2025, in the May/June 2025 issue of <em>Foreign Affairs</em>.</p>
<p>Mitchell writes that the process of sequencing the wars with Russia and China should<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>begin “by bringing the war in Ukraine to an end in a way that is favorable to the United States. That means that when all is said and done, Kyiv must be strong enough to impede Russia’s westward advances” [for which no evidence exists, showing Mitchell’s mind to be controlled by the false narrative]. Washington should use the Korean War formula: “prioritize an armistice and push questions about a wider settlement into a separate process that could take years to bear fruit, it it ever does.”<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>This, of course, is what Washington’s de facto recognition of Russia’s territorial claims ensures.</p>
<p>Mitchell carelessly then reveals the intended deception of Babe-in-the-Woods Putin: “The United States should pursue a defense relationship with Ukraine akin to the one it maintains with Israel: not a formal alliance, but an agreement to sell, lend, or give Kyiv what it needs to defend itself. But it should not grant Ukraine [ de jure ] NATO membership. Instead, the United States should push European states to take responsibility for Ukraine—and for the security of their continent more generally.” This strategy capitalizes “on Putin’s special relationship with the Russian oligarchs” and dupes Kirill Dmitriev, Putin’s negotiator, ” into pressing the Kremlin to accept a short-term military armistice which stops well short of the demilitarization and denazification goals of the Special Military Operation.”</p>
<p>So, as Mitchell describes it, the “peace agreement” is a Washington deception to set up, yet again,  “Babe-in-the Woods Putin” for the eventual destruction of Russia.</p>
<p>Can I believe this?<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Yes, I can.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Helmer has<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>been watching things for a long time and reporting on them.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>This scenario is not a product of Helmer’s imagination.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  It is spelled out in</span> an article in <em>Foreign Affairs</em>, long the arbiter of American foreign policy. The author, West Mitchell, a former Trump high official, clearly holds to the neoconservative policy stated by Defense Undersecretary Paul Wolfwitz that the purpose of American foreign policy is hegemony over the world. If American hegemony requires war, war it is.</p>
<p>The Russians, with a large part of the mindless Russian establishment so desirous of being part of the West, have never paid any attention to the implication for Russian sovereignty of the neoconservative doctrine of US hegemony. This doctrine has not been denounced by President Trump. Consequently, Russia will be destroyed as the Russian government stupidly walks into deception after deception. Under Putin and Lavrov it will be one Minsk Agreement after another.</p>
<p>The question I have is:<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Is Trump a part of the deception not only of Putin but also of the American people, or is this a deal he has accepted without realizing its consequences because he is desperate to end the conflict as he promised? <span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> If Trump himself is part of the deception, then we have the explanation why the American Establishment did not prevent his reappearance in the Oval </span>Office.</p>

<p>[<a href="https://trendcompass.substack.com/p/europe-and-britain-at-the-precipice">Originally published in I-System TrendCompass</a>] </p><p>The "peace talks,” that were meant to take place in London on Wednesday, 23 April, collapsed as US State Secretary <strong>Marco Rubio</strong> and Trump's envoy <strong>Steve Wytkoff</strong> cancelled their attendance. Instead, Wytkoff flew to Moscow for his fourth meeting with <strong>Vladimir Putin</strong>. This will prove to be a watershed moment for European powers, dashing their last hope that the US will step up and provide an open-ended security guarantee for the Zelensky regime, or another western-aligned government in Kiev. I believe that this will ultimately precipitate a momentous credit market event for Europe, and trigger an irreversible collapse of the European financial markets.</p><div data-sanitized-class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd873a52c-6ec2-4198-bc4d-8bff585841c6_864x486.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM" data-sanitized-class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img"><div data-sanitized-class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd873a52c-6ec2-4198-bc4d-8bff585841c6_864x486.png" width="864" height="486" data-attrs='{"src":"https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/d873a52c-6ec2-4198-bc4d-8bff585841c6_864x486.png","srcNoWatermark":null,"fullscreen":null,"imageSize":null,"height":486,"width":864,"resizeWidth":null,"bytes":899251,"alt":"","title":null,"type":"image/png","href":null,"belowTheFold":false,"topImage":true,"internalRedirect":"https://trendcompass.substack.com/i/162115785?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd873a52c-6ec2-4198-bc4d-8bff585841c6_864x486.png","isProcessing":false,"align":null}' alt="" title="" fetchpriority="high" data-sanitized-class="sizing-normal"></picture><div data-sanitized-class="image-link-expand"><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-reset icon-container restack-image"><path d="M3 12a9 9 0 0 1 9-9 9.75 9.75 0 0 1 6.74 2.74L21 8"></path><path d="M21 3v5h-5"></path><path d="M21 12a9 9 0 0 1-9 9 9.75 9.75 0 0 1-6.74-2.74L3 16"></path><path d="M8 16H3v5"></path></div><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-reset icon-container view-image"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></div></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>As I detailed in last month's <a href="https://alexkrainer.substack.com/p/ukraine-rare-earths-deal-the-empires?r=cpxww">report on Ukraine's rare earths</a> hustle, the American role in Ukraine was essential to safeguard European interests in Ukraine. Those interests were largely economic. On 16 January this year, <strong>Sir Keir Starmer</strong> flew into Kiev and signed a 100-year partnership with Kiev. In consideration of British support, including with GBP 3 billion a year (for as long as necessary), Zelensky signed over the bulk of Ukraine's resources and infrastructure capital to British interests.</p><h2>Not a penny can flow…</h2><p>Britain's loot in Ukraine would serve as fresh collateral to shore up Britain's collateral-starved financial system. For his part, French President<strong> Emmanuel Macron</strong> dreamed up a scheme about using Russia's frozen assets as collateral for French banks to fund the reconstruction of Ukraine. But as <strong>Boris Johnson</strong> explained, without the US security guarantee, "not a penny can flow from this investment." Starmer confirmed that "<a href="https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/feb/17/starmer-urges-trump-to-provide-backstop-to-european-peacekeeping-force-in-ukraine">US backstop is vital</a>."</p><p>Well, US backstop is now off the table and both Britain and France, the core of Europe's "coalition of the willing," had to back away from their cunning plan of deploying their own <s>tripwire</s> peace-keeping troops to Ukraine. That pretty much cements her defeat against Russia, making it all but inevitable that the terms of peace will be dictated by the Kremlin.</p><h2>Moscow will dictate the terms of peace</h2><p>In one way or another, whether through military conquest or administrative control, Moscow will return Ukraine back into its orbit and we can expect that the future government in Kiev will realign with Russia. The role of Western interests will be severely curtailed or they will be kicked out altogether. Whatever deals were signed by Sir Kier and agent Zelensky will be torn up and declared null and void. In the end, not a penny of those "investments" in Ukraine will flow to London or to Paris.

However, this is a much more attractive alternative for the United States: given Russia's massive resource wealth, the upside will be very considerable, with next to no downside risk. On the other hand, providing a security backstop for the Europeans would entail a massive downside with only a dubious upside potential: the US would have to shoulder the cost of security and risk a military confrontation with a rival nuclear power. The upside was London's "rare earths" three-card monte dangled in front of Trump by their agent Zelensky last fall.</p><p>It was extremely optimistic for the Starmer-Johnson cabal to think that they could pull that swindle past <strong>Donald Trump</strong>, of all people. As <a href="https://x.com/AutismCapital/status/1892806427808522684">Marco Rubio explained</a>, "President Trump isn't going to take that. He's not going to get gamed. He hopes Zelensky isn't trying to hustle the United States, that's not going to be productive here." Of course, everybody and their dogs by now appreciate that Zelensky gets his detailed instructions from London.</p><h2>The looming credit event</h2><p>Absent a miracle, Ukraine is headed for total defeat and London and Paris for bankruptcy. At some point, the capital markets will recognize this for what it is and British and European bonds markets will collapse, along with their currencies. For the moment, this is not yet happening, but some unpredictable triggering event will set off an avalanche which will then precipitate an irreversible fall of the degenerated old colonial regimes in Paris and in London.</p><div data-attrs='{"url":"https://alexkrainer.substack.com/subscribe?","text":"Subscribe","language":"en"}' data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM" data-sanitized-class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor"><div data-sanitized-class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div data-sanitized-class="preamble"><p data-sanitized-class="cta-caption">Alex Krainer's Substack is a reader-supported publication.
