I have to take a few days off
Dear friends, I am exhausted, I feel sick (flu?) and I have a backlog of things I need to attend to, including at least two interviews for the blog which I am sure you will find most interesting (teaser: one will feature a Q&A with a very interesting and well-known US politician) I need to pace myself, so I will be taking a few days off. Maybe until next Monday.
War On Syria; Not Quite According To Plan Part 1. The Islamist-American Love-Hate Quagmire; Facts And Myths:
by Ghassan Kadi There is a lot of myth about ISIS, its roots, and relationship with America. To unravel the mystery, we need to go back to some basics of human behaviour, more specifically, to basics of human behaviour of psychopaths and sociopaths. In order to understand the current impasse between ISIS and the USA, and to be able to assess if there is indeed an impasse at all, and
New Western Info Fronts Against Syria: Refugees, Russia, And The Balkans
by Andrew Korybko Russia has taken the lead in supporting Syria this summer, actively initiating efforts to bring a diplomatic resolution to the country’s crisis and assemble an inclusive anti-ISIL coalition. The rapid pace at which it’s working is due in large part to the looming specter of a joint American-Turkish invasion force which hangs ominously over the Mideast. Disturbed at the success that Russia has had so far in

A scream of total disappointment (Saker rant)
Dear friends, I have to honestly say that I am totally discouraged by many of the reactions I got to the column by Catire about Venezuela yesterday. As I have written it in my introduction, I knew that this would get some people really angry at me, but I have to admit that I did not expect such a nasty and primitive reaction. I won’t even got into the insulting

By Youssef Hindi Translation: Brahim Source: http://www.egaliteetreconciliation.fr/La-Russie-l-Europe-et-l-Orient-34799.html Russia is not only a great military power, an old nation, which, from the arrival of Vladimir Putin at its head, has endeavored to balance the relation of geopolitical and economic forces.

Testimony: how socialism in Venezuela has affected me
Foreword by The Saker: from time to time I post something which gets people really mad at me. Today, I am doing “one of those” – a post which will anger all those who support the values of Bolivarian Socialism, of Chavismo and of the anti-colonial, anti-US liberation struggle of the people of Latin America. Before you get personally mad at me and before you conclude that I am a
The Parade of Self-determinations on the Victory Parades
By Andrei Sorokin, September 4th 2015 Translation: TB Original article: http://www.odnako.org/blogs/parad-samoopredeleniy-na-paradah-pobedi/ Once upon a time in the West, there was a science called “sovietology”. It was concerned with researching the secret plots of the Kremlin through examining the positions taken by the members of the Politbureau on the Mausoleum tribune during workers’ marches and military parades.

Je suis Alyan?
by Ghassan and Intibah Kadi The human tragedy in Syria is one thing, and the hypocritical manner in which the West is dealing with it is an absolute shamble. To begin with, it was the Western sphere of influence that destabilized four states in the region over the last two decades; namely Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya and Syria. One may argue that Afghanistan had been a hotspot before the US-led invasion,
