Sudden Escalation: US Warships Fire Missiles Into Syria  (3)
'How to prepare for War'
Excellent article Chris.
Thank you
Sadly war looks to be inevitable between Russia and the US and this time the US will get more than it bargained for . Russia has been incredibly restrained to date ,but I doubt this will last. The US will continue with this insanity until ,as many believe ,it has now passed the point of no return between these two empires.
The trash ne...

“That War You Ordered….”  (4)
Nice comments James

If Trump is as mad as everyone says he is , then anything is possible,but I doubt he is and being a tough hombre, he hates to lose and particularly to a bunch of arrogant beaurocrats in the IC.

He knew from the outset this was going to be an almighty shit fight and given the nature of the beast he won't go quietly. He will not be the one to blink first.He'll be ready for it...

Good News: Washington Frozen Out of Syria Peace Plan  (3)
True Ron, very true,
But the yanks don't approve of not being invited to a party and unlike others they will see it as a loss of prestige, face, power in the ME . Call it what you will.

There will be reprisals which is why Russia has wisely invited them back into the fold after Obama is gone.
But that will not satisfy the neocons and others and like the spoilt fat kid in the playground he'll fin...

Trump Takes Over: Pros and Cons  (4)
Nice piece Nelson,
Agree 100%
It will be not easy and there are extremist in the left camp and the right that could take the extreme option. While unthinkable it is not impossible given what's at stake for many .

What worries me is this foment of rebellion will escalate ,even if Trump can turn the corner , these malcontents and big business interests affected by Trump's change of direction may...

Do We Really Want A War With Russia  (1)
Very good article Chris,

Unfortunately I too believe we are headed for a major escalation, weak president, confused foreign policy and bureaucrats wielding more power than they have ever had in Washington with total disregard for anyone or anything other than their own insane agendas.

This is the double down by a failing empire.

Make no mistake ,if the coalition lose the battle of Syr...

What Should We Do About Crimea  (2)
Thank you Ron Paul,

Finally some people in the west get it!

America is the worlds biggest terrorist.

If another nation fails to comply with its demands , it punishes it through the media it controls, through sanctions , through installing puppet governments and overthrowing democratically elected ones or through throwing money at it . They just paid the Philippines $33 Million for wh...

Can Trump Win the Presidency  (4)
Nice piece Nelson,but I have disagree with you on "climbing out" after the big one.

Like great empires past,The Roman, Medo-Persian,Babylonian ect. all believed they were exceptional and invincible like America. They ultimately succumbed to their own moral weight and collapsed.

America and the West will be no different. We are seeing the death throes now.

As wonderful and terrible as a...

Lit and Sputtering  (6)
Have to disagree with you on replacing Trump, James.

There is no one else and if they attempt to, look out ,hell hath no fury like an electorate scorned.

Besides the whole thing is a total sham and disaster politically, financially and most of all morally.

The whole system is shot .Look at the disaster in Dallas.

You might remember a line in The Departed:

An Unfiltered Mind  (7)
Great article James, your'e right on, however the question is will Trump fold like Obama once he's in office given the forces against him will be incredibly strong?

We all know what happens with the gangster who doesn't do what the mob wants him to do and that could become the ace card his opponents play.

Notwithstanding this and with the best intentions the billionaire has to set things righ...

The Uses of Disorder  (3)
Donald Trump may appear poorly articulated,but he is probably the best man for the job. He certainly can do no worse than the establishment elite who have successfully ruined everything.And given they have failed so miserably over the last 3+ decades to achieve anything,but gradually reduce the nation to its knees ,it is hardly surprising the electorate has said,Enough ! throw the bums out.!

The idea ...

 Ron Paul
Blame America No, Blame Neocons!  (8)
Ron Paul says not to blame America
Having lived in the US for a decade Americans are wonderful people, generous of heart, and good all round, but the government of America represents its people and therefore as a democratically elected government they also stand for the US people-warts and all. Squirming to get out of it Ron Paul just doesn't wash-sorry Ron.

Like a virus its government has contamina...
