by Prof. Engr. Zamir Ahmed Awan for the Saker Blog Washington Post published a book review titled “Think we have military primacy over China? Think again” on the book “The Kill Chain” authored Mr. Chris Brose on 13 May 2020, which has exposed the American Defense capabilities. The Author is a well-versed defense analyst and close to Pentagon. He has a deep insight of American defense capabilities. After World War
by Susan Safi for The Saker Blog To understand what is happening between China and Australia currently, we need to examine some of the undercurrents in Australian politics and culture. In the West, including Australia, “Democracy” has been presented to and instilled in the people as the measure of civilization, development and justice. Maybe there was a time when this was true for some, provided they turned a blind eye
by Ramin Mazaheri for The Saker Blog – “All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.” “Some apes, it seems, are more equal than others.” “Take your stinking paws off me, you damned, dirty public servant!” One of those quotes is from George Orwell’s Animal Farm, another was said by Charlton Heston towards a primate who rejected ape-human equality during the court interrogation scene from Planet

by Ramin Mazaheri for the Saker Blog Isn’t it interesting that nobody at all has used the phrase “QE 5” – the fifth round of Quantitative Easing – to describe the 2020 bailouts? I found just a single, brief use of it, from three months ago. That’s because – look around yourself – we are in the thick of it right now. Once it finally stops and we can add
by Eric Zuesse for The Saker Blog The reason why the U.S. Government must be prosecuted for its war-crimes against Iraq is that they are so horrific and there are so many of them, and international law crumbles until they become prosecuted and severely punished for what they did. We therefore now have internationally a lawless world (or “World Order”) in which “Might makes right,” and in which there is
By Ramin Mazaheri for the Saker Blog (Hey hey, my new book is out today! Socialism’s Ignored Success: Iranian Islamic Socialism. Buy a copy for yourself and 50 of your closest friends and Iranophobic/Islamophobic/socialism-phobic enemies.) On May 14 France’s nurses held a protest march in Paris despite ongoing fears about coronavirus — so are they no longer rightly-guided heroes but far-right neo-fascists now? For several months we’ve been banging pots
By Pepe Escobar – crossposted with Strategic Culture Foundation Italian master thinker Giorgio Agamben has been on the – controversial – forefront examining what new paradigm may be emerging out of our current pandemic distress. He recently called attention to an extraordinary book published seven years ago that already laid it all out. In Tempetes Microbiennes, Patrick Zylberman, a professor of History of Health in Paris, detailed the complex process through

Gary Littlejohn for the Saker Blog It was very interesting to see Mr. Ramin Mazaheri’s reply on 30th April to my comments on his original article: ZeroHedge, a response to Mr. Littlejohn & the future of dollar dominance In addition, as a contribution on a related issue, namely German government bailouts of German corporations, there is now the article by the respected historian Eric Zuesse on 6 May: German Government
Ramin Mazaheri for the Saker Blog Among capitalist economists stagflation is the worst possible outcome, excepting a Great Depression. They even admit they cannot explain it (especially Keynesians), or rather they choose not to – this is why the word has barely been broached during this very depressing coronavirus era. In exactly the same vein, the West’s intellectuals claim they cannot explain the causes of World War I (as I
[This analysis was written for the Unz Review] First, let’s begin with a few (apparently unrelated) recent news items: The latest US PR disaster in Venezuela shows that the AngloZionist Empire truly is agonizing. While this is hardly the first that that a US “special operation” goes down in an embarrassing failure, but even by US standards this latest disaster in Venezuela is painfully humiliating. Even more humiliating are the reports
Attempts to distort the results of the defeat of Nazism and the decisive contribution our country made, which are continuing in Washington even during these days of universal celebration of the 75th anniversary of Victory, cause utter indignation. In this context we cannot neglect the commentary posted on the White House pages in social networks where the victory over Nazi Germany is credited exclusively to “America and Great Britain.” On

Ramin Mazaheri and Jeff J Brown – for The Saker Blog We can’t always find it but there is always a tipping point. Last week I crunched the data and suggested it’s May 17: The date the Great Lockdown must end or Everything Bubble 2 pops. Maybe I’m a few days off, but not many more: This bubble-popping is precisely why Trump is not wearing a mask, planned to end
By Matthew Ehret for The Saker Blog As today’s world teeters on the brink of a financial collapse greater than anything the world experienced in either 1923 Weimar or the 1929 Great depression, a serious discussion has been initiated by leaders of Russia and China regarding the terms of the new system which must inevitably replace the currently dying neo-liberal order. Most recently, Vladimir Putin re-initiated his January 16, 2020
By Ramin Mazaheri – for the Saker Blog A party built around climate change is a luxury only the West can afford, and like most luxuries it is a corrupting influence. While covering a protest in France several years ago a union member told me how she hoped Iran would stop selling its oil in order to protect the environment. “Sure,” I told her, “how many billions of euros can
For the first time in eight years of existence, the Immortal Regiment nationwide event took place online because of the coronovirus pandnmia, and not on the main streets of the cities of Russia and the world. Vladimir Putin showed by his example that despite the constraints, one can find time to honor his relatives – participants in the Second World War.
