I was wrong. I believed that controlling Venezuelan oil was the primary objective behind Donald Trump's decision to order the kidnapping of Venezuelan President Nicholas Maduro. After reviewing the actual numbers it is clear that the belief that Venezuelan oil would provide a buffer if the Persian Gulf is closed as a consequence of an Israeli/US attack on Iran is sheer nonsense.

It is interesting to observe how United States foreign policy, such as it is, often appears to have an Israeli back story that explains at least in part how Donald Trump's mindless aggression against much of the world is driven by Zionist imperatives rather than actual American interests. Ukraine is supported by Israel and the US Israel Lobby in part because the roots of many diaspora and Israeli Jews are "Kazarian," i.e.

Every two years or so the CIA and Mossad are instigating regime change riots in Iran. These attempts inevitably fail.
Currently a few thousand young men are during nighttime burning cars, mosques, shops and police offices in various cities of Iran. Armed agents are firing at and killing policemen. All these cells are coordinated via Internet connections.
It usually takes a week or two until Iranian government forces find the connections, trace down the ring leaders and shut them down.

There are many examples that prove I am correct. For example, in the Western World education does not pass on to younger generations an understanding and appreciation of their inheritance. Western education tears down Western achievements and demonizes them as racist, exploitative, and antisemitic. Western civilization has created liberal-left ideological cadres that hate their own society and are alienated from their own country.

A few nights ago, I had dinner with a local Dallas restaurateur named Javier Gutierrez, the owner of Javier's, which has been a legendary local institution since I was a boy. Javier has long struck me as embodying the virtues described in Baldassare Castiglione's Book of the Courtier, published in 1528.
Polite but not too formal; always elegantly dressed in a jacket and tie but never flashy; calm, soft spoken and restrained but always open and friendly, he has a natural authority that instantly commands the respect of employees and customers alike.

We left off in 1921, having seen how the Rothschild dynasty created institutions that, like pincers, control all global social strata. These include media outlets, magazines, news channels, radio stations, and film production companies, all owned by the Illuminati through their families and power groups. John D. Rockefeller was assigned the task of controlling multimedia.

One of the cofounders of The American Conservative, the great Pat Buchanan, once asked what is probably the most important question about the future of this country of ours: "Can a civilization survive both low fertility and mass immigration from alien cultures?" The answer of course is obvious, and one only has to look across the ocean to Britain, where white Brits are predicted to become a minority in London and Manchester within 25 years.

L'issue de cette confrontation déterminera non seulement l'avenir de la République Islamique, mais aussi un nouveau rapport de forces dans tout le Moyen-Orient.
Depuis fin décembre dernier l'Iran traverse l'une des vagues de tensions socio-politiques les plus graves de ces dernières années. Les manifestations, initialement provoquées par l'effondrement de la monnaie nationale (le rial) et l'hyperinflation, se sont rapidement transformées de rassemblements économiques en une révolte politique aux slogans anti-gouvernementaux.

Fin 2014, Alstom plaide coupable aux États-Unis pour un vaste système de corruption internationale, acceptant de payer 772 millions de dollars d'amende. Dans le même temps, sa branche Énergie - 70 % du chiffre d'affaires et près de 65 000 emplois, dont 9 000 en France - est cédée à l'américain General Electric, symbole d'un pillage industriel sans précédent.

Le terme « hypocrisie » est le plus courant, mais certainement pas le plus approprié pour décrire la participation d'Israël au Concours Eurovision de la chanson 2026.
Il faut trouver d'autres mots pour expliquer pourquoi un pays qui vient de commettre l'un des génocides les plus horribles de l'histoire moderne est célébré comme un centre culturel, artistique et musical.

La questione del rapporto tra culture religiose e scienza, oggi, viene solitamente affrontata con un misto di fine della storia e determinismo etnico-razziale.
Recentemente, abbiamo osservato qui alla SCF che la scienza moderna ha le sue origini nel mondo cattolico occidentale, che si è sviluppata in modo significativo anche nel mondo protestante (che era in competizione con quello cattolico) e, successivamente, nel mondo comunista ateo.

Alors que les États-Unis ont attaqué et envahi le Venezuela, kidnappant le président légitime Nicolás Maduro et cherchant ouvertement à prendre le contrôle de la politique, du pétrole et des ressources du pays, les organisations de la résistance palestinienne et régionale ainsi que des mouvements populaires se sont exprimés pour condamner l'impérialisme états-unien et soutenir le peuple vénézuélien et son gouvernement.

Face aux actes hostiles US récents à l'encontre de navires battant différents pavillons en haute mer (au-delà des Zones Economiques Exclusives qui s'étendent jusqu'à 200 miles marins de la côte), on peut s'interroger sur quels textes réglementaires les Etats-Unis s'appuient pour s'accorder ce droit et si ces actes ne devraient pas être considérés au regard des règles internationales comme de la piraterie.
