EDITOR—7/5/2024 Episode 93 of Blowback: Exposing Imperial Decline with special guest Alex Suarez. While the East continues to strengthen their ties, US empire vassals actually boast of their abject vassalage as seen in smoothly produced cringeworthy propaganda pieces circulating on social media, with Ukrainians celebrating the 4th of July, and Kosovars shamelessly licking the boot of the Empire by impersonating Americans and doing line dancing. Unfortunately, this kind of foolishness has awful consequences, as the Ukrainian nation is demonstrating.
The panel also examines the Assange case, including a persistent cloud of accusations describing Assange as a spy or a limited hangout working for the CIA; or an operative working for or against the Russians or Chinese, or as a tool for or against the Republicans or Democrats. All that is nonsense says guest Alex Suarez, who claims authoritative knowledge of Assange. The activist, says Suarez, was not a tool of the Russians, nor was he a shady player helping the Trump campaign.

6 minutes readEDITOR—While most of the collective West’s leaders are tumbling from power, Vladimir Putin is undeniably stronger than ever, notes Garland Nixon jocularly, attributing such course of events to the dreaded “Zelensky curse”, afflicting all leaders that once vociferously proclaimed their desire to topple the president of Russia. Garland also analyses the horrific implications of Biden’s (America’s) imperialist adventurism, which leads inexorably to WW3 and the end of humanity.

The Jeffrey Sachs-Tucker Carlson interview: the most important interview ever?
by Thomas Fazi180 Mins readTHOMAS FAZI—[Quoting Jeffrey Sachs]—”[Saying that Russia’s invasions of Ukraine was unprovoked is] very dangerous because it’s wrong. It gets the whole story completely wrong, and it misunderstands the trap that we set for ourselves as the United states to push Ukraine deeper and deeper and deeper into this hopeless mess that they’re in right now.
Basically, it started very simply, which is that the United States government — let’s not call it the US people, they had nothing to do with this — but the US government said: “We’re going to put Ukraine on our side and we’re going to go right up to that 2,100 kilometre border with Russian. We’re going to put our troops and NATO and maybe missiles, whatever we want, because we are the sole superpower of the world and we do what we want”.
And it goes back, actually a long way. It goes back 170 years. The Brits had this idea, first surround Russia in the Black Sea region, and Russia’s not a great power anymore. And that was Lord Palmerston’s idea in the Crimean War, 1853 to 1856. And the Brits taught us what we know about empire, and they basically taught us the idea…”

BRIAN BERLETIC—US policymakers have sought to use Israel as a proxy to provoke a full-scale war with Iran for years. While the US attempts to distance itself from Israeli provocations and atrocities including attacks on embassies and the killing of aid workers, the US is chief in enabling Israeli in continuing to carry out such attacks. – Just as the US created a large-scale conflict in Ukraine to reassert itself over Europe, it is attempting to use conflict to reassert itself in the Middle East and at a minimum prevent the region from uniting and moving out from under Western hegemony. – The window of opportunity for the US and proxies like Israel to fight and win a military conflict against Iran and its allies in the region is quickly closing, thus efforts are being made to provoke such a conflict sooner rather than later.
