    Happy hour: US President Biden (R) meets with Ukraine President  Zelensky in the Oval Office, Washington, September 2011

    What was the need for all that happened in the period since mid-December when Russia transmitted to Washington its demands for security guarantee? This question will haunt US president Joe Biden long after he retires from public life. The foreign policy legacy of his presidency and the reputation of this much-vaunted 80-year old politician with a half-century’s record in public life, much of it supposedly in the domain of American foreign policy are in tatters — irreparable.

    China’s Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi gave a press conference for the Fifth session of China’s 13th National People’s Congress on foreign policy issues, Beijing, August 7, 2022

    Traditionally, the Chinese foreign minister holds press conferences on the margins of the sessions of the National People’s Congress at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing. The press conference by State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi on Sunday marking the fifth session of the 13th NPC had added significance due to the confrontation between the US and Russia, an epochal event.

    The US Chose This Conflict: Notes From The Edge Of The Narrative Matrix

    Wednesday, 9 March 2022 — Caitlin Johnson

    by Caitlin Johnstone

    Listen to a reading of this article:

    ❖

    Just your regular reminder that the US empire (A) had solid intelligence that this war was coming, (B) knew they could prevent it by making very reasonable, low-cost concessions like promising not to add a nation to NATO that they didn’t want to add anyway, and (C) chose not to.

    Ukraine Crisis and Outlook: Culmination points in the East-West struggle

    Saturday, 5 March 2022 — Wipokuli

    Following the words of the first Secretary General of NATO, Hastings_Ismay, regarding NATO´s purpose “to keep the Russians out, the Americans in, and the Germans down”, one could say that the aim of the Ukraine conflict purposefully brought about by the USA is: to keep the Russians and Chinese out, the USA in, and the Europeans down and in line!

    Watch: US-funded Uyghur “Right Org” Hires Advocate FOR Genocide in Xinjiang

    Tuesday, 8 March 2022 — TheAltWorld

    • Anthony Cartalucci

    The US accuses China of “genocide” in its western Xinjiang region. However, China had been reacting to US-sponsored separatism including a years-long campaign of deadly terrorism and militancy.

    So-called “human rights” groups funded by the US government are in fact separatist organizations sponsored by Washington hiding behind the smokescreen of human rights advocacy.

    One, Campaign for Uyghurs, includes members who have openly called for separatism as well as ethnic cleansing against non-Uyghurs.

    Australian Government Sanctions People For Sharing Unauthorized Thoughts

    Tuesday, 8 March 2022 — Caitlin Johnson

    by Caitlin Johnstone

    Listen to a reading of this article:

    ❖

    In the western world’s mad rush to ramp up censorship and dangerous cold war escalations against Russia over its invasion of Ukraine, the Australian government has done what it always does and raised the bar of authoritarianism a click above everyone else in the room.

    “The Australian Government is sanctioning 10 people of strategic interest to Russia for their role in encouraging hostility towards Ukraine and promoting pro-Kremlin propaganda to legitimise Russia’s invasion,” reads a new statement from Australian Foreign Minister Marise Payne. “This includes driving and disseminating false narratives about the ‘de-Nazification’ of Ukraine, making erroneous allegations of genocide against ethnic Russians in eastern Ukraine, and promoting the recognition of the so-called Donetsk People’s Republic and Luhansk People’s Republic as independent.”

    Israel stunned by Ukrainian neo-Nazis

    Tuesday, 8 March 2022 — Voltaire Network | Paris (France)

    by Thierry Meyssan

    The state-organized presence of neo-Nazis within the Ukrainian army is not anecdotal, even if it is not possible to quantify it in a certain way. On the other hand, it is easy to count their victims. In general indifference, they have killed 14,000 Ukrainians in eight years. This situation is one of the causes of the Russian military intervention in Ukraine. Israel is confronted for the first time with what it could never have imagined: the support of its US protector to its historical enemy, Nazism.

    Burning Globalist Structures to Save the Globalist ‘Liberal Order’

    Sunday, 6 March, 2022 — Strategic Culture Foundation

    Alastair Crooke

    Biden, finally, has his foreign policy ‘success’: Europe is walling itself off from Russia, China, and the emerging integrated Asian market.

    In its triple strike of sanctions on Russia, the EU initially was not looking to collapse the Russian financial system. Far from it: Its first instinct was to find the means to continue purchasing its energy needs (made all the more vital by the state of the European gas reserves hovering close to zero). Purchases of energy, special metals, rare earths (all needed for high tech manufacture) and agricultural products were to be exempted. In short, at first brush, the sinews of the global financial system were intended to remain intact.

    To Punish Russia The ‘Liberal Order’ Attempts To Suicide Itself

    Monday, 7 March 2022 — Moon of Alabama

    Two days ago we looked at why Russia is doing what it does:

    Russia understood Zelensky’s remark in Munich as a threat by Ukraine to acquire nuclear weapons. It already has the expertise, materials and means to do that.

    A fascist controlled government with nukes on Russia’s border? This is not about Putin at all. No Russian government of any kind could ever condone that.

    I believe that this credible threat, together with the artillery preparations for a new war on Donbas, was what convinced Russia’s government to intervene by force.

The richest 1% owns more than TWICE as much wealth as 6.9 billion people and the super-rich one percent of the world’s population has accumulated twice as much wealth as the remaining 90 percent, global charity Oxfam said in a newly-released report. The world’s richest 1% emit double the carbon of the poorest 50%, the 2020 Oxfam study found.
