Following Ukraine’s massive drone attack on President Putin’s residence in Novgorod, (shown in the projected flight paths in the map above, from the Ukrainian ‘Russian’ site Meduza) Turkish TRT news interviewed Atlantic Council’s Elisabeth Braw in London. What she said in the interview below (trimmed a little for length) might be considered unhinged and simply… Continue reading Pretending Peace while Declaring War – on Russia

Point x – the War Crimes Amnesty.
In the now notorious ‘Trump 28-point peace plan’ for settling the Ukraine conflict, there was included an amnesty for all war crimes committed since 2022. While the plan was initially said to have been drawn up by the US and Russia, this controversial clause – which rapidly disappeared without trace – should have demonstrated that… Continue reading Point x – the War Crimes Amnesty.
Defending Russia, 80 years on.
Below is an article I hoped would be published by dissident journal Pearls and Irritations when I submitted it on May 30th, after news had just emerged of the attempted assassination of President Putin as he flew to Kursk province on May 20th. The immediate trigger for my article – which aimed to put the… Continue reading Defending Russia, 80 years on.
Malcolm Fraser talks to RT on NATO and Ukraine, March 2014
In a historic interview with Oksana Boyko on RT just a month after the US-backed coup, the late former Australian prime minister Malcolm Fraser offered his opinion and advice on NATO’s plans to “capture” Crimea and Ukraine. Eleven years later we may lament that his advice was ignored by European and US leaders, with deadly… Continue reading Malcolm Fraser talks to RT on NATO and Ukraine, March 2014
Shaking hands with the Devil
In what should be the defining image of the ‘jihadist coup’ in Damascus, Germany’s foreign Minister Annalina Baerbock shook hands with the White Helmets outside Saydnaya prison. While this handshake with a male member of the bogus ‘civil defence’ organisation was not actually shown in the DW news report below, it was clearly about to… Continue reading Shaking hands with the Devil
Jaish al Islam returns to Douma.
Since the BBC’s correspondent visited Douma, as I reported previously, there have been many developments in Syria following the ‘jihadist coup’ or ‘Black Revolution’. Three of the main instigators and orchestrators of the takfiri takeover of the Syrian government have appeared in Damascus for talks with the suit-wearing throat-slitters – Turkiye’s Hakan Fidan to talk… Continue reading Jaish al Islam returns to Douma.
Russia’s Gauntlet
We seem finally to have reached the point of rupture and of no return – in WB Yeats’ words: “the falcon cannot hear the falconer – things fall apart, the centre cannot hold..” Things have also outpaced me, failing to finish and post this piece till now, when its message has been overlaid by a… Continue reading Russia’s Gauntlet
A Tale of Two Sieges.
Two cities, Mariupol and Gaza, have been under siege, but only one is liberated. The besiegers, Kiev and Tel Aviv found common cause, as the Western coalition gave them money and weapons to fight for this cause against any comer. Both are colonial enterprises, set up to further the interests of the Empire, and constructed… Continue reading A Tale of Two Sieges.
Building on Spilled Blood
The Church of the Saviour on Spilled Blood in St Petersburg was built on the exact spot where the Tsar Alexander II was assassinated in 1881, when political nihilists threw grenades at his carriage as it drove beside the canal. The building was completed in 1907, financed by the Romanov Imperial family as a shrine… Continue reading Building on Spilled Blood
