EDITOR—Scott Ritter explains the situation the American empire finds itself in after getting involved in two major wars (Ukraine and Palestine), while courting a third one against China. Who’s the madman driving this chariot?

INDRAJIT—The world is quite integrated and America’s enemies aren’t even trying to take it down, which is costly for them and risks global annihilation. They’re just trying to defend themselves but America cannot stop offending, even with its pants falling down and teeth falling out. The American Empire could last for decades out of sheer inertia, but they’re losing it this decade out of sheer cussedness. America came in genociding and fighting and, dagnabit, they’re going out that way.
This is all unnecessary, but the indispensable nation just can’t help themselves.

GARLAND NIXON—Paradoxically, the true hope for humanity lies in the hands of the very people that the Biden team has labeled as pure unadulterated evil. We can only hope that President Putin and the Russian leadership is wise and analytical enough to see this move as the proverbial “cheese in the mouse trap” that is set to both slam shut the window of opportunity for Donald Trump to get a conflict ending deal and provoke a violent Russian reaction that will drag the world into its final conflict. I suspect that, as long as the Russians are able to blunt any missile attacks and avoid catastrophic damage such as a missile strike on a nuclear power plant, they will choose alternate responses to these long range attacks including, but not limited to, providing Yemen and other US adversaries with powerful anti-ship and air defense capabilities and cutting off critical supplies that they currently sell to NATO countries.

EDITOR—Outspoken Australian journalist tells it like it is about the situation in the Middle East and the heinous crimes of Israel aainst the captive Palestinian population. But, notes Werleman, Israel, and its main supporter, the US, are now completely isolated. The US stands alone as the sole defender of the Zionist colony, hated across the globe. There’s a tectonic shift taking place in all continents, a shift that is now reaching into the very core of the US empire, notes Werleman. We stand at the brink of a new age.

MIDDLE EAST UPDATE EPISODE 32 – ISRAEL IN DEEP AND SERIOUS TROUBLE
60 Mins / Watch / readEDITOR—Laith and Garland comment on current events in the Middle East, the Ukraine, and US politics. Laith and Garland’s shows are being severely censored—shadowbanning and other forms of “algorithmic deletion”—are being applied, with the result that their platforms have lost considerable traffic. Only after some energetic protests did the invisible censors in charge of YouTube, Twitter, etc. relented some, but the ultimate outcome is still obscure. Commenting on the war in Gaza and Lebanon, Laith offers invaluable news and clarifications not found on regular media channels. He notes that key information and political personnel of pro-Palestinian and Hezbollah organisations continue to be assassinated, Israel’s favourite way of fighting. He also notes that America’s special envoy, Hochstein, who expected a complete cave-in by Lebanese leaders, a surrender, was practically given the finger by Lebanese authorities and went home empty-handed. Laith stresses that the IDF is not making much headway into Lebanon, despite their massive use of firepower, etc. Meanwhile, Israel’s campaign to invade and occupy Lebanon is costing Tel Aviv (and Washington) dearly in terms of equipment and personnel. The Axis of Resistance continues to attack Israeli targets, while the Zionist/American alliance increases its pressure on all parties in hopes of breaking the anti-Zionist forces.
