EDITOR—”Iran does not need to attack Israel” declares Scott Ritter, arguing that Israel is being consumed by its own fanatical military over-reach and ideological contradictions fuelled by Zionism. Ritter does not see the two-state solution as feasible. The process will be much more gradual, he declares. Israel is the problem. Zionism is the problem. The Israeli people are the problem..they are not worth saving…because they believe in Zionism and the necessity of [enabling] an apartheid state. Thus, for peace and justice to have a chance in the Middle East, Israel [the concept] has to go away. Then perhaps a single state, Palestine, may arise to provide a home to Palestinians, Christians and Jews, to live in peace as the Holy Land was intended to do. “Israel now, due to its irrational policies is a sinking ship that left to its own devices will fail.” Ritter is not alone in his opinions. Other respected observers of the Middle East situation have come to the same conclusion, including prominent Jewish thinkers and activists such as Norman Finkelstein (“Israel is a lunatic state”); Miko Peled (“Israel must be dismantled to have peace in Palestine”), Max Blumenthal, Aaron Maté, Katia Halper, Glenn Greenwald, etc.

Is Nuclear War Finally at Hand? Dmitri Orlov Explains How Russia Will Respond to the West’s Constant Escalations
65 Mins readEDITOR—Leading Russian geostrategic analyst Dmitry Orlov provides some answers to the question many people are pondering lately: Are NATO’s constant escalations liable to trigger a nuclear war? When will Putin decide that enough is enough and respond in kind? What happens if NATO and its toxic puppet Ukraine score major hits in Moscow and other major Russian cities, or in key defence spots? Orlov suggests that Russia’s way of responding to such dangerous insults may be far less spectacular than blowing up a bunch of Western cities in retaliation (which Russia certainly can do) and far more effective and indirect, attacking, in effect the vital points of the West’s economic organism: electric power, transportation fuels, strategic arms production materials, and so on.

The US Political Duopoly’s Ridiculous (and Useless) “Debate” & Jill Stein’s Sane Response
8 minutes readP. GREANVILLE—We publish the whole uber-ballyhooed debate between the duopoly’s actors, Trump and Harris, whose disgraceful lack of substance is matched by their lack of independent agency and morality, each one trying to outgun the other in imperialist machismo and bloodlust, not to mention complete absence of actual solutions to the problems afflicting the US and the world. These enormous flaws, personal and systemic of the duopoly’s figureheads, are underscored by Jill Stein’s intelligent analysis of the political situation and the sensible requisite policies that will heal a nation tearing itself apart.

LARRY JOHNSON—As I mentioned to the Judge, the prank call by Vovan and Lexus, two lovable Russian rascals, who pretended to be Petro Poroshenko, produced some major truth bombs from Radoslaw Sikorski. In public, Sikorski is a rabid neo-con hell bent on war. Based on this conversation, he is a lot of bluster but not insane. He admits that NATO in general, and Poland in specific, have no intent of going to war with Russia. Please watch the entire conversation. Vovan and Lexus may merit the Nobel prize for this piece.
