In the last few weeks they still have in power, the team running the Biden Administration is working overtime to stoke conflict and color revolutions throughout the globe – all in a futile effort to maintain control over an illusory unipolar world and its bankrupt financial system. Just last week, the White House announced a new, classified national security memorandum, […]

A “big mistake”, is how Donald Trump described the decision by the Collective Biden administration to allow Ukraine to target sites deep inside Russia with ATACM missiles provided by the U.S., whose targeting and other support functions remain in the hands of U.S. and NATO military personnel. He said so in an interview with Time Magazine released on Dec. 12, […]

The LaRouche Organization has just posted an interview conducted on Dec. 16 by TLO President Diane Sare with two experts on Southwest Asia, Col. Richard H. Black (ret.), former head of the U.S. Army’s Criminal Law Division at the Pentagon and former State Senator in Virginia; and UK investigative journalist Vanessa Beeley, a longtime resident of Syria, who had to […]

It is important to recognize that the main facilitator in transforming Syria’s Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) from an al-Qaeda-linked terror group into an ostensibly political movement has been British Foreign Office veteran Jonathan Powell, who met with leaders of the HTS, including Abu Muhammad al-Jawlani (al-Jolani), in 2017. Jonathan Powell is the younger brother of Charles Powell, the private secretary […]

Since the fall of the Syrian government of Bashar al-Assad on Dec. 8, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been jubilant. The very next day, he declared that “a new chapter” had opened, that Israel had “reshaped the Middle East” and was defeating its enemies “step by step” in a “war of existence”. He boasted that those enemies included Hamas (without […]

The last weeks of autumn have brought the European energy network close to collapse, due to the “black hole” created in Germany by so-called renewable energies. As any schoolboy could predict, the prolonged absence of wind has created what the Germans call “Dunkelflaute” (a “dark lull”, with no wind and no sunshine), generating a deficit in the electricity supply that […]

After heading a minority government for the past six weeks, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz lost his confidence vote in the Bundestag on Dec. 16, with 394 voting against him, 207 for him,and 116 abstentions. The result was no surprise, after his Green Party coalition partner, with the consent of Scholz’s Social Democrats, announced one week ago it would abstain, in […]

On Dec. 2, the U.S. Commerce Department added 140 companies, mostly Chinese, primarily in the semiconductor field, to “The Entity List”, a compilation of foreign individuals, companies, and organizations that are subject to export restrictions and licensing requirements, because the U.S. government considers them a national security threat. The decision was obviously designed to damage China’s semiconductor sector. The response […]

In the opening segment of Panel I of the Schiller Institute online conference of Dec. 7-8 (cf. SAS 50/24), an excerpt of a webcast given by Lyndon LaRouche on Dec. 7, 2012 was shown. The subject of the webcast was how to stop economic collapse through hyperinflation, by re-enacting a separation of banking activities (Glass-Steagall), but only as one aspect […]

The dramatic turn of events in recent days in Syria is not an expression of dynamics internal to that besieged nation, but the result of external pressures, interventions and manipulations. These reflect a world in turmoil as a dying world order struggles to recover a hegemony that is gone forever. South-West Asia has been thrown into yet more uncertainty, as […]
