EDITOR—The panel discusses a number of recent developments on the world front, from Julian Assange’s recent surprise release by the Empire, to the way things are shaping up for Washington in the Ukraine and Israel/Palestinian conflicts, the latter as liable to bring the world to a global nuclear clash if Israel decides on full-on war against Lebanon as the still expanding proxy war against Russia.

US “Green Lights” Strikes on Russia, Reality Behind Kerch Port Attack, Czech Ammo Bid Falls Short
16 minutes readBRAN BERLETIC—The US was behind Chechen extremists Russia fought two wars against within its own borders in the late 1990s and early 2000s If Ukraine’s use of Western weapons have failed to impede Russian success along the line of contact, it can be assumed that attempting to use them across Russia’s vast interior will only further dilute Ukrainian firepower along the front and compound its crisis further.

Modern American Imperialism Part 2: Building Eager Armies Helping Colonize their own Nations
15 minutes readBRIAN BERLETIC—Long before headline grabbing protests, color revolutions, armed conflicts and even war, the US spends years laying the groundwork to politically capture a targeted nation. Part of this process involved building up cadres of indoctrinated young people through fellowships and scholarships who eventually work their way into a targeted nation’s media, political system, and academia. The US maintains a large number of programs including its various “Young Leaders Initiatives” folding young people into Western personal and professional networks as well as providing funding for starting pro Western political, media, and educational organizations. These cadres eagerly serve Western interests at the expense of their own nation’s sovereignty and best interests as a means of maintaining their place within the personal and professional networks they were included in through such “exchanges.” Nations can combat this interference by creating their own pipelines through sovereign educational systems, producing journalists, political leaders, administrators and professors who work for their own nation’s best interests, culture, and values.

Cambodia Does Not Owe US Explanation Over Chinese Ties / Russian Forces Return to Kharkov
44 minutes readBRIAN BERLETIC—As is the case with so much regarding Western policy analysis, the conclusion that a Chinese military presence in Cambodia equates to plans to wield military power against other nations in the region is pure projection of what Washington itself is doing across Asia, and would like to do with Cambodia specifically. Washington openly seeks to place military bases across the region, having already signed agreements with the Philippines to do so and already having tens of thousands of US troops stationed in South Korea and Japan. There is also the semi-covert and growing US military presence on the rogue Chinese island province of Taiwan. This military presence is openly being expanded for the purpose of encircling, containing, and even directly confronting and fighting China militarily.

BRIAN BERLETIC—This startling admission exposes the US government as deeply involved in interfering in and subverting the political independence of not one, but multiple, nations in Eastern Europe. The same article admits that the US government achieves this through funds distributed by the National Endowment for Democracy’s (NED) many subsidiaries, (NED is a CIA-created and controlled “NGO”), including the International Republican Institute (IRI), National Democratic Institute (NDI), and Freedom House. It also mentions adjacent private foundations like George Soros’ Open Society Foundation.
