Hamas had multiple reasons for launching the October 7 attacks but none of those reasons had anything to do with “hating Jews” or wanting to “terrorize innocent civilians”. One objective was to rip the mask off the Zionist monster they’ve been dealing with for decades. I leave you to judge whether they succeeded.
Mike Whitney argues that Hitler’s invasion of Russia was not meant to deliver a final de grăce to communism. With ample evidence, he explains that Stalin was preparing to sweep across Europe and Hitler’s Operation Barbarossa was a pre-emptive response
Since the start of the war the U.S. and Israel have used air and missile strikes to break Iran but to no avail. So if conventional arms are not going to do the trick, then they’ll probably resort to more lethal alternatives. And that is something that should concern us all.
In 1938 Winston Churchill faced mountainous debts but was saved from bankruptcy by a bailout from a group of millionaires. This is historical fact. The question is, did the handout influence his policy with Hitler? It’s a pertinent question because Trump also took generous donations from Miriam Adelson. Did this shape his policy on Iran?

Netanyahu does not want a functioning Iran. He wants another Nagasaki, another Hiroshima; devastation as far as the eye can see. This is Netanyahu’s warning to those who would dare to defy the State of Israel. Oh, and he needs to make Trump do the deed. On that point, there can be no debate.
Mike Whitney on a new book by Pat Buchanan, which ponders why WWII need never have happened and why communism might have perished in 1940. Instead of living on for fifty years and murdering tens of millions more in Russia, China, Korea, Vietnam and Cuba
According to historian Darryl Cooper — “Churchill Is the Chief Villain in WWII. ..Churchill is a terrorist… Hitler didn’t war with England.”
A faltering yen has triggered alarm in the financial world. If the Bank of Japan sells its stockpile of US Treasuries (now exceeding $1.2 trillion) to support its sagging currency, the US bond market could go into a nosedive dragging the global economy off a cliff.
Mark Whitney explains how events in the Spanish enclave of Ceuta weren’t just a psyop, but a psyop intended to further the Greater Israel project
Mike Whitney argues that the goal of Oct 7 wasn’t a military victory. Hamas’s former military chief Yahya Sinwar wanted to provoke an Israeli response, an excessive one. In this he succeeded and now Israel is increasingly isolated and at odds with the world
