My latest interview with Tasnim. TEHRAN (Tasnim) – An American political analyst said the majority of Arab regimes in the region are under the control of ‘Atlanticist-Zionist-Wahhabist’ triangle. “The majority of Arab governments are controlled by forces that are part of the wider Atlanticist-Zionist-Wahhabist triangle, particularly those in […]

Todd Lewis and Keith Preston begin our series on US Foreign Policy.
Press TV. Listen here. The United States is concerned about the faltering Wahhabi-Zionist alliance between Saudi Arabia and Israel, and that’s why US President Donald Trump is going to visit Riyadh and Tel Aviv on his first foreign trip, according to an American analyst. Keith Preston, the director of […]
The entire political class, from the most liberal Democrats to the most conservative Republicans, are the enemy. By Ben Norton and Adam Johnson Alternet All 100 members of the U.S. Senate sent a letter to the United Nations on April 27 that spread misleading pro-Israel myths. Included as […]
US imperialism is what those who are genuinely concerned about the mass killing of people with black and brown skin should be protesting, not Milo Yiannopolous and Ann Coulter. By D. Amari Jackson Atlanta Black Star On December 20, 1996, in the Colombian riverside village of Riosucio, the […]
A reminder of who is our true enemy, i.e. the State. As the late paleoconservative turned anarchist Joseph Sobran once said, “If human beings were rational, they would talk about the state the way Jews talk about Nazis.” It’s also a shame that these discussions of mass killings […]
How ironic that the overlords of the American Empire might be backing the Murray Bookchin-inspired libertarian socialist insurgents of the Kurdish territory. But this is actually in keeping with a strategy that I have long advocated for anarchist, anti-state and anti-imperalist movements around the world, i.e. building on […]
Todd and I will begin our series on US Foreign Policy.

Speaking of libertarians, Ron Paul and Daniel McAdams say some sensible things about the Syrian gas attack and its ensuing fallout:
Apparently, Trump has decided to be just another tool of the Anglo-American-Zionist Wahhabist axis of evil. No US President that ever moved to dismantle the empire would be allowed to survive. The wider ruling class and deep state interests would force him out by means of political maneuvering, […]
Tasmin News Agency TEHRAN (Tasnim) – An American political analyst described European nations as age-old “colonies” of the US Empire, noting that policies by the country’s new administration on Europe can give this chance to the 28-member bloc to assert its own “identity” and “independence”. “Europe faces no […]
By Neil Clark Russia Today The big chimp is back. No, I’m not talking about the imminent release of the new King Kong film, but the return of George W. Bush. Incredibly, or perhaps not so incredibly, given the current insanity, the man who launched a blatantly illegal […]
By William S. Lind Traditional Right The big question about the new Trump administration is whether its foreign policy will reflect President Trump’s views or long-standing Establishment positions. It is too early to offer a firm answer, but early indications are worrying. The past several weeks have seen […]
PressTV. Listen here. The administration of US President Donald Trump is in conflict with intelligence agencies over deploying American troops to Syria to fight the Daesh (ISIL) terrorist group, an American political analyst in Virginia says. “Right now there’s a great deal of conflict within the American government […]
There is absolutely no reason for the USA, a continent wide state with huge oceans to the east and west, weak nations to the north and south, unprecedented levels of wealth and technology not to mention nuclear weapons, to ever be at war with anyone. Every US war […]
A number of people have for my views on the so-called “Muslim travel ban” imposed by the Trump administration. Here goes: Statistically, the evidence shows that right-wing terrorists have been slightly more violent in the years since 9-11 than Islamists, at least in the US obviously. But the […]
Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard just returned from a secret trip to Syria and told Jake Tapper in a CNN Exclusive said any reconciliation would have to involve Syrian President Bashar Al Assad.
Press TV. Listen here.

Bill Lind on why North Korea is just an extension of traditional Korea. By William S. Lind Traditional Right As North Korea inches its way toward possessing an ICBM than can hit the United States with a nuclear warhead–both of dubious reliability–we can expect a Korean “crisis” to […]
The best analysis of the Trumpian approach to foreign policy I have seen to date. By Pete Escobar South China Morning Press China, Russia and Iran are the three key players in what promises to be the Eurasian Century. Donald Trump may be The Joker; The Fool; The […]
I agree with this analysis but disagree with its conclusions. Ultimately, our enemies are all states everywhere, and our greatest non-state rivals are the Wahhabist/Salafist renditions of Islam. I consider the struggles of the Kurds, particularly the PKK and allied tendencies, to essentially be the same as the […]
Trump may be a maverick, but not that much of a maverick. By Leon Hadar The American Conservative We’re all familiar with “slippery slope” arguments. Allow Casual Fridays, and soon enough everyone will be coming to work in shorts and T-shirts. Ban assault weapons, and you’re on the […]
Interesting. Sounds like Trump’s faction of the ruling class may favor a foreign policy paradigm similar to that recommended by Bill Lind. By Mike Whitney Counterpunch The US foreign policy establishment is gradually shifting its focus from the Middle East to the Far East, but the unexpected election of Donald […]
PressTV. Listen here. Incoming US President Donald Trump will only use his opposition to the “one China” policy as a bargaining chip in trade talks with China and to the extent that would not disrupt relations with Beijing, says a political commentator. Trump, who will officially take […]
By Glenn Greenwald The Intercept Dwight Eisenhower delivered his farewell address after serving two terms as U.S. president; the five-star general chose to warn Americans of this specific threat to democracy: “In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, […]
Press TV. Listen here. The American intelligence community is seeking to cause “friction” between the United States and Russia as President-elect Donald Trump has signaled willingness to improve relations with Moscow, says a political analyst. Keith Preston, the chief editor of AttacktheSystem.com, made the remarks on Wednesday in […]
Mike Whitney Counterpunch Powerful elites are using the credibility of the US Intelligence agencies to demonize Russia and prepare the country for war. This is the real meaning of the “Russia hacking” story which, as yet, has not produced any hard evidence of Russian complicity. Last week’s 25-page […]
Q: Why will there never be a coup d’état in Washington? A: Because there’s no American embassy there. By William Blum The Empire Report China 1949 to early 1960s Albania 1949-53 East Germany 1950s Iran 1953 * Guatemala 1954 * Costa Rica mid-1950s Syria 1956-7 Egypt 1957 Indonesia […]

PressTV. Listen here. President-elect Donald Trump will maintain Washington’s strong ties with Israel and hawkish stance against Iran during his administration due to the influence of the Zionist lobby and neoconservative groups in the US, a political analyst in Virginia says.
If Bolton makes it in, the neocons’ strategy will likely be to have him play the role of Wolfowtiz to Mattis’ Rumsfeld and Pence’s Cheney. Bolton will try to sell the other two on war with Iran and try to get them to start whispering sweet nothings in […]
PressTV. Listen here. The success of the Syrian armed forces in fighting the Daesh (ISIL) terrorist group has prompted the United States to escalate the militancy in Syria, in an effort to undermine the government of President Bashar al-Assad, says a political commentator. US Defense Secretary Ashton Carter said on Saturday […]
I generally agree with Bill’s analysis here, although I’m personally rooting for the Fourth Generation forces. “…we need a new Triple Alliance or Quintuple Alliance, and here as so often in grand strategy context is important. It is, again, the need for all states to work together against […]
Tasnim News Agency TEHRAN (Tasnim) – An American political analyst said the US Senate vote to extend the Iran Sanctions Act (ISA) is “clearly a violation” of the JCPOA, the July 2015 nuclear deal between Tehran and world powers, adding that the move aims to serve Israel’s interests […]
By Jon Basil Utley The American Conservative Even before the Iraq War, John Bolton was a leading brain behind the neoconservatives’ war-and-conquest agenda. Long ago I wrote about him, in “John Bolton and U.S. Lawlessness,” “The Bush administration’s international lawlessness did not come from nowhere. Its intellectual foundations […]
