Are the Donald's threats to obliterate Iran (a) reasonable and (b) practicable?

Does Iran have nuclear weapons? Can the USA deploy nuclear weapons successfully?

This is 23 minutes of precise argument, and both parties and the host deserve great credit for getting together to make this video.

The Show Must Go On.

But when the public persona can be captured by a look-alike behave-alike speak-alike product of the AI's imagination, or even perchance by a real clone, it behoves us all to be aware of the possibility (ie: downright certainty) that all is not as it seems, particularly when the character is performing out of character.

We seem to have seen a lot of that lately. 

Even in ancient Greece, Socrates was wont to declaim that "the only thing I know is that I know nothing". We know the feeling.

Did they have clones in those days? We are told that they had neither TV nor internet, so hiding inappropriate behaviour may have been simpler, but there again, I'd bet that the ancient rumour-mill would have been working well enough, even if at a more leisurely pace than today.

But enough chit-chat -

We have been treated to any number of opinions about what should be done to secure peace in the Ukraine.

But so far we haven't heard from the main player in dominant position: President Putin.

So here he is to put that right:

Lessons from the Front Line of British Politics — with Raja Miah MBE, working at the front line of local politics in Oldham.

"This is the very front line of political activism in the UK. Those seeking ways to bring the global agenda to a grinding halt would do well to examine and emulate Raja Miah's work in Oldham"

Many of the articles published on this site are based on a conventional view of our world, a view which regards it largely as a material world in isolation.

But there are many ancient sites and megalithic remains that do not fit at all comfortably within the narratives that are put out by academia.

In particular, the origins of modern man as a species remain elusive, which has led to a number of hoaxes, including for example, "Piltdown man", not to mention wacky ideas that the Gods of Old (Rome, Egypt, Greece etc) may have been of extraterrestrial origin... and perhaps they may have been.

This may be a good time to review our "Down the Rabbit Hole" series of articles (hint:

On whichever side of the fence we may sit, if we want to understand a situation then we do well to listen to both sides of the argument.

The situation vis a vis Israel, America, and Iran has been a long time in the brewing, before even the foundation of Israel, and all the way back to the British Empire and (allegedly) their installed puppet ruler the Shah of Iran. Well before my time in fact.

Here Prof Marandi presents his view from Iran on the current US administration's efforts to "bring peace to the Middle East".

It's your view that counts.

As only Ben can, he sets out a scenario (or several) that place the ongoing machinations of the global "Great and the Good" within a context of extraordinary breadth and deep historical roots.

If we want to know what is really going on in our world, this report should be on our radar.

But don't panic, they are almost certainly already here, and so are we still, so it's unlikely that they mean us any harm provided that we don't mean them any harm.

But that's not to say that introductions might not be in order... at some point. Good neighbourliness is important, but maybe we can prioritise to sort out our world's governments first before we light the blue touch paper on this one.

Dr Steven Greer has made quite a career out of putting together all the evidence he can find about the US government's involvement in matters "alien" / unexplained, in fact he is probably one of the most diligent and reasonable researchers in the field.

So allow us to introduce Dr Greer's latest release - the Disclosure Project Briefing Document -  a cool three hundred pager also now "available in hard cover and in paperback".

EU-UK want "troops on the ground" in Ukraine for "peacekeeping", Russia wants peace on Russia's terms, Trump wants the war ended.

When is a conflict a "special military operation" rather than a "war"? Does it matter?

Scott Ritter reviews the situational developments...

An interesting little video has appeared,which purports to get to the bottom of the legal status of those who inhabit the British Isles, and it raises some interesting points. It may also validate the naming of this site!

After watching, we may remind ourselves that the US Military is sworn specifically to defend the Constitution of the United States (from enemies external and internal!). They were way ahead of us back in 1788 (or thereabouts - I'm not sure exactly when the military adopted their specific oath, but presumably it was after the Constitution was ratified).

Specific allegiances may appear arcane but are hugely important - they involve trust, and they can tell us whom we should be able and/or willing to trust.

Scott Ritter explains the Trumpian path to peace.

If you rely on the military then you will get war or at least conflict.

If you rely on your economic interests in common, then neither party will even want war or conflict.

Co-operation trumps conflict every time.

After the Trump-Zelensky imbroglio, it's no surprise that Ben provides quite a bit of intel on what is really going on, what happened subsequently, and whither it might lead.

Of course, matters just now are fast-moving and one cannot rule out events from left field that may upset specific predictions, so we await developments.

Still, it's an interesting question as to how long the current "US administration" can keep confidence in the crumbling financial edifice afloat - beware the Ides of March?

Scott Ritter lays it out - and then some!

"Donald Trump has done more in one month than anyone has ever done in any peace negotiations in the history of modern warfare"

Whether we think he did a good job or a bad job will depend upon our view of the objectives, Trump's stated objective being to end the pointless slaughter.

Recent years have demonstrated that short of starting WW3, Ukraine+NATO/EU will not hold the Russian advance, let alone push them back behind their erstwhile boundaries.

Many won't like that, but would we like WW3 any better?

Yanis Varoufakis, economist, author of very accessible books, self-proclaimed leftist and scourge of the EU at the time of the Greek "bail-out", and now apparently a Professor, (and virtually the only "leftist" that I rate very highly for his logical analysis and ability to get to the real nub of political problems) explains the current state of Trump's relationship with Europe.

Oh, and the workings of Chinese municipal government! Maybe we should be wondering how our own new political system should look, once our current failing systems have collapsed.

Very informative.

With "renewables" leading to ever higher energy costs, nuclear still regarded with some suspicion (and SMRs not yet rolling off the production lines in volume), government-backed mega power-stations seemingly permanently mired in the paralysis of analysis and the perils of politicking, and of course fracking being sent packing, some think that old king coal is poised to make a come-back.

Yes, there are obvious problems with that, but there's problems with everything just now - and just how are all these wonderful new but power-gobbling AI data-centres going to be powered?

In case you are still wondering... 

In view of the lack of conventional military capability/capacity, as ever, Europe resorts to national posturing.

"If you oppose America's peace plan in Ukraine... then you are becoming an existential threat to the national security of the United States"

"... the script has been flipped... take a look at what happened at the United Nations recently... it was the United States voting with Russia, China, Belarus, North Korea, and it was France and the UK in opposition"

"... it's about economic relationships... "

" We will now seek economic collaboration as our primary methodology of coexistence..."
