Simply stop killing Gazans and the anger directed at Jews might end Philip Giraldi Archive With 106 Postshttps://earthnewspaper.com/category/philip-m-giraldi-phd One might well ask how a group composed of little more than 3% of the US population has managed to gain control of the nation’s foreign policy, its legislature and executive branches, its media, its entertainment industry, […]

Beatings and arrests continue both in the US and the Middle East Philip Giraldi Archive With 105 Postshttps://earthnewspaper.com/category/philip-m-giraldi-phd The news cycle over the past week has been dominated by reports and analysis of the Signal group chat involving top national security officials discussing aspects of the recent air strikes which have been directed against the […]
The Death Of Free Speech In America? by Philip Giraldi
You can thank Israel and its many friends Philip Giraldi Archive With 104 Postshttps://earthnewspaper.com/category/philip-m-giraldi-phd There should be little doubt in anyone’s mind that the “wag the dog” relationship between the United States and Israel has done terrible damage to American institutions and constitutional liberties. The US bipartisan unconditional support of the ongoing Israeli genocide of […]
Saying Goodbye To Benjamin Netanyahu Is Long Overdue by Philip Giraldi
Give Miriam Adelson her $100 million back and tell her to go home Philip Giraldi Archive With 103 Postshttps://earthnewspaper.com/category/philip-m-giraldi-phd President Donald Trump’s address to Congress and the nation on Tuesday night was remarkably devoid of any mention of why the United States continues to both enable and be complicit in the Ukrainian conflict with Russia […]
Imagining The Gaza Riviera And Other Follies by Philip Giraldi
Philip Giraldi Archive With 101 Postshttps://earthnewspaper.com/category/philip-m-giraldi-phd The problem is that those folks who are looking nervously at what President Donald Trump is doing to reshape the Middle East to the benefit of Israel are not looking deeply enough into the US domestic policy changes that are also being promoted that will strip Americans of fundamental […]
Pope Francis Should Go To Gaza! by Philip Giraldi
It’s time to end Israel’s destruction of Christianity in Palestine Philip Giraldi Archive With 100 Postshttps://earthnewspaper.com/category/philip-m-giraldi-phd The death of former President Jimmy Carter started me thinking about how long it’s been since the United States has been led by a head of state who was also a thoroughly decent human being.

Who The Hell Is In Charge Here? by Philip Giraldi
If Trump submits to Israeli control just as Biden did, we need a revolution Philip Giraldi Archive With 98 Postshttps://earthnewspaper.com/category/philip-m-giraldi-phd A photo popped up on the internet last week which was a bit surprising even for those of us who have been overly obsessed with the seemingly aimless and highly dangerous comedy routine that describes […]
When Is A Ceasefire Not A Ceasefire? by Philip Giraldi
When it is set up by Washington and Israel is involved Philip Giraldi Archive With 97 Postshttps://earthnewspaper.com/category/philip-m-giraldi-phd We are possibly witnessing another stealthy move by Washington and Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel to enhance the Israeli position in a Middle East at war while pretending to do something else. President Joe Biden and his cast of […]
Israel Rules Washington by Philip Giraldi
Political Parties compete in what they will do for the Jewish State If there is anyone out there who seriously doubts that it is Israel that is in the driver’s seat when it comes to its relationship with the United States, last week’s filing of criminal charges directed against Hamas’s leadership should be a wake-up […]
Israel Will Bleed America Dry And Discard It Like An Old Shoe by Philip Giraldi
The United States must disengage from the Israeli Death Grip There are some simple truths surrounding all the nonsense being spewed by Israel’s agents and its cheerleaders in the United States, Canada, Europe as well as elsewhere in the Anglophone world. First of all, Israel is no democracy and never has been one since its […]
War Criminal Benjamin Netanyahu Addresses The US Congress by Philip Giraldi
Lies proliferate and Congress cheers genocide in Gaza To my surprise, last Thursday morning there was relatively little coverage of the address to the US Congress delivered by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu last Wednesday afternoon apart from a critical opinion piece that appeared in the New York Times regarding Israel’s war on the Palestinians. […]
How The Israeli Army Benefits From US Tax Law by Philip Giraldi
Tax exemptions that support war crimes are not “charitable” The United States tax code allows exemptions from federal taxes for certain categories of nonprofit organizations or groups that frequently serve either an educational or charitable purpose. Such organizations are categorized as 501(c)(3) and exempt from Federal income taxes while the donors who contribute to their […]
Protecting Israel Is Washington’s Number One Job by Philip Giraldi
The White House and Congress rally around the Star of David Flag Philip Giraldi Archive With 92 Postshttps://earthnewspaper.com/category/philip-m-giraldi-phd When, as expected, President Joe Biden signs off on the Antisemitism Awareness Act the Department of Education will be empowered to send so-called antisemitism monitors to enforce civil rights law at public schools as well as at […]
Neocons And Other Malignancies In The American Body Politic by Philip Giraldi
They will never give up until we’re all deadIt is interesting to observe how, over the past twenty-five years, the United States has become not only a participant in wars in various places on the planet but has also evolved into being the prime initiator of most of the armed conflict. Going back to the […]
What Is Happening In Syria? by Philip Giraldi
Washington’s interventionism and its disregard for its own highly promoted “rules based international order” is outrageous Which are the governments generally regarded as “rogue” by an overwhelming majority of the world’s nations? If you answered either Russia or China you would be wrong, even though many countries have condemned Russia’s attack on Ukraine on grounds […]
It’s Past Time To Be Honest About Israel by Philip Giraldi
The deliberate corruption of American politics by an irresponsible foreign state must end One might think that since Honest Joe Biden declared his latest war entitled the US National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism in May the media has certainly taken up the task of exposing evil in these United States by reporting every affront to […]
A Bit Of Political Theater In Vilnius by Philip Giraldi
A whining President Zelensky goes home with almost nothing but still might start World War 3 It is a lucky break that the Screen Actors Guild has gone on strike as it will give Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky an opportunity to dust off his thespian credentials and look for a new job when the Russians […]
Christianity’s Survival In Israel Is Under Attack by Philip Giraldi
Extremist government headed by Netanyahu promotes de facto ethnic cleansing Israel’s new government is still taking shape, but some of the policy changes being promoted are so Jewish-centric that they will inevitably impact disproportionately on minority disadvantaged communities like the Palestinian Christians and Muslims. The government itself is already being described in the press as […]
The Hate Crime Purging Of “Antisemites” Is Underway! by Philip Giraldi
The Hate Crime Purging Of “Antisemites” Is Underway! Saying anything about Israel’s misbehavior can send you to jail There have recently been a number of incidents that would be of interest if one has concerns about the sorry state of free speech in Europe and the United States, the so-called “democracies” who tend to boast […]
Israeli Soldiers Shoot Dead Palestinian Two-Year-Old by Philip Giraldi
While Blinken tells AIPAC of Team Biden’s “iron clad” support for Israel There would appear to be no limit to Israeli bestiality towards the Palestinians and likewise no limit to how much that brutality has been enabled by the positions taken by successive US governments and the national media. Indeed, the self-defined Jewish state, which […]
Who Stole The 2020 Presidential Election? by Philip Giraldi
Antony Blinken and others have much to answer for The corruption engaged in by the Democratic Party leadership appears to be never-ending and no one is ever held accountable. A recent report described how Michael Morell, the former acting Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) director, colluded with Antony Blinken, who was then a senior official in […]
“Freedom Of Religion” And Other Lies by Philip Giraldi
Christian and Muslim persecution in Israel ignored by the White HouseThe United States government, in its incessant bullying of foreign nations to get them to see the world the way that the cabal that runs Washington sees it, ironically often cites such fictions as the “rule of law” that guarantees such “rights” as “free speech” […]
Send In The Clowns by Philip Giraldi
Yellen and Garland perform back-to-back surprise visits to UkraineSometimes I think that the script being used by the Biden Administration to manage its foreign and national security policies has been written by George Orwell, though I am not sure if it based on 1984 or Animal Farm. Maybe it is a combination of the two. […]
US Foreign Policy Goes “Woke”? by Philip Giraldi
Regime change in store for cultural conservatives? It is generally observed that imperial powers like the United States frequently interfere in foreign governments in support of economic or hard political reasons. To be sure, Washington has refined the process so it can plausibly deny that it is interfering at all, that the change is spontaneous […]
America Goes To War by Philip Giraldi
Constantly without regard for any real national interestAt last week’s Rage Against the War Machine peace rally in Washington there was no shortage of speakers who denounced the Biden Administration’s hypocritical foreign policy, which essentially judges any violent action undertaken by the United States and its friends as good by definition while anything done by […]
America The Feckless by Philip Giraldi
Lies and hypocrisy are at the heart of the Biden foreign policy One would think that the United States military staging an unprovoked “plausibly deniable” covert attack on a nation with which it is not at war would be at least considered newsworthy. That the attack did grave damage to a country with which the […]
A Tale Of Three Cities by Philip Giraldi
Washington’s Hypocrisy on its “Rules Based International Order” One might actually be willing to consider that there might be some value in the “rules based international order” being promoted by the Joe Biden Administration if such a thing actually existed and was applied equally to all transgressors. Of course, in reality, the “rules” being referred […]
Lock Up The White House Silverware! Volodymyr Zelensky Is In Town! by Philip Giraldi
In my humble opinion the surfacing of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in Washington last week was possibly the most disgusting example of the corruption of our country and its values since Israeli President Benjamin Netanyahu arranged for a similar invitation to address a rapturous Congress back in 2015. Zelensky’s “surprise” visit had in fact been […]
More On Anti-Antisemitism by Philip Giraldi
Apparently it is needed everywhere It seems that if there is one thing that those at the top of the United States government and the national media really want for the holidays is to be able to accuse someone new of being an antisemite. Since the Kanye West story exploded, anti-antisemitism has suddenly become big […]
How To Trash A Movie In Support Of A Lie by Philip Giraldi
The cover-up of Israel’s genocide of the Palestinians during the Nakba continues Israel’s new government is planning to give de facto operational control of the national police and heavily armed border police to Itamar Ben-Gvir, the leader of a party of right wing, racist extremists. It can perhaps be regarded as the prelude to the […]
Vladimir Putin’s Vision Of A Multipolar World by Philip Giraldi
An end to US hegemony? In history books as well as in politics every story is shaped by where one chooses to begin the tale. The current fighting in Ukraine, which many observers believe to already be what might be considered the opening phase of World War 3, is just such a development. Did the […]
Putting An End To Volodymyr Zelensky’s Follies by Philip Giraldi
Let’s try to avoid World War III One week ago, the Ukrainian government may have deliberately attacked neighbor Poland in an attempt to draw the NATO alliance into its war with Russia. The incident involved a missile that hit a grain processing site inside Poland and killed two farmers. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky immediately blamed […]
And Now for Something Completely Different by Philip Giraldi
Decline and fall of Western Civilization part one My wife and I completed a cruise recently that started in Venice, visited islands and historic sites in the Eastern Mediterranean, and concluded in Rome after stops in Valletta, Palermo and Naples.

Perfidious Putin! by Philip Giraldi
Russia seeks to overthrow the world’s democracies Russian President Vladimir Putin has certainly been a naughty boy! The always unreliable and unofficial government-originating disinformation source The Hill is reporting that Moscow has spent the equivalent of $300,000,000 in an effort to “influence” world politics in its favor. The story relies on and follows a New […]
Never Let A Good Crisis Go To Waste by Philip Giraldi
Relentless Ukraine reporting helps conceal other conflicts It is astonishing how many observers of war in Ukraine who should know better have been inclined to take at face value the assertions of “sources” that clearly originate among the various governments that are involved in the conflict. Those leaders who are engaged in the inexorable march […]
A Death In Moscow by Philip Giraldi
Was the car bomb intended to send a message or to escalate the conflict? The horrific car bombing in Moscow that killed twenty-nine year old Darya Dugina last week raises many questions about the motives of the Ukrainian regime and its supporters that sent an assassin to murder a prominent Russian civilian who has no […]
Israel Conquers The World by Philip Giraldi
Fealty to Israeli and Jewish interests is the new normalI have to confess a certain liking for Russian President Vladimir Putin. No, it’s not over his actions in Ukraine, nor his authoritarian tendencies domestically. It is due to the fact that he sometimes articulates the hypocrisy of foreign countries and leaders in a pithy and […]
Policing The World Is A Full-Time Job by Philip Giraldi
China pushes back against US-led military intervention in Asia Every leader and top official now in power in the so-called Western World seems to have forgotten that the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) was founded in 1949 as an alliance that was ostensibly defensive in nature, intended to counter the expansion of Soviet style communism […]
The All-American Lie Factory by Philip Giraldi
Government and the media work together to promote war on Russia[This article is derived from a speech I made at the July 23rd Peace and Freedom Rally in Kingston New York] There are some things that I believe to be true about the anarchy that purports to be US foreign policy.

Joe Biden’s Secret War in Ukraine by Philip Giraldi
American soldiers are already “boots on the ground” The White House keeps insisting that it will not directly involve American soldiers in the war in Ukraine, but it keeps taking steps that will inevitably lead to a large-scale open combat role for the US against Russia. Among the most recent moves to increase the pressure […]
How Jewish Is The War Against Russia? by Philip Giraldi
Let’s be honest about who is promoting itFive years ago, I wrote an article entitled “America’s Jews Are Driving America’s wars.” It turned out to be the most popular piece that I have ever written and I was rewarded for it by immediately being fired by the so-called American Conservative magazine, where I had been […]
Biden Goes To The Middle East by Philip Giraldi
Watch out for Israeli trickery Joe! The White House has confirmed that President Joe Biden will travel to the Middle East in mid-July. He intends to visit Israel, the Palestinian Authority and Saudi Arabia. The trip will be used to address outstanding bilateral and multilateral issues, including convincing the Saudis to pump more oil to […]
Explain It To Me, Please by Philip Giraldi
If you want a war with Iran, Russia, China and Venezuela tell me why and how it would benefit Americans So Honest Joe Biden is now going to give another $1.2 billion to the Ukrainians on top of the sixty or so billion that is already in the pipeline, but who’s counting, particularly as Congress […]
The Power Of The Jewish Lobby by Philip Giraldi
Israelis killing Americans is okay In Washington Anyone who has spent any time in Washington and who has been reasonably engaged in watching the fiasco playing out there might agree that the most powerful foreign lobby is that of Israel, backed up as it is by a vast domestic network that exists to protect and […]
Biden Rocks The Middle East by Philip Giraldi
Partitioning Syria may be on the way That dwindling band of observers that continues to express concern over the catastrophe that constitutes United States foreign policy under President Joe Biden have come to realize how the Ukraine situation is being used as cover for interventions and other similar mischief in other parts of the world.

Israel’s War Crimes Have Killed Americans by Philip Giraldi
If the president loves to honor the military, start with the U.S.S. Liberty Imagine if you will a ship from a nation not at war with anyone sailing in international waters on a quiet June day being suddenly attacked by unidentified warplanes and torpedo boats, their markings covered up to conceal their country of origin. […]
A World At War? by Philip Giraldi
Biden lashes out against “enemies” as our country declines One recalls that when war fever surged demanding intervention by Imperial Britain in the Russo-Turkish War of 1877, a song became popular in the music halls which included “We don’t want to fight, But by Jingo if we do, We’ve got the ships, we’ve got the […]
Biden Administration’s Ministry Of Truth Stumbles by Philip Giraldi
But it is only on “pause” and we will be seeing it again Finally some good news – maybe! The Department of Homeland Security’s recently launched Disinformation Governance Board has gone into what has been described as the “pause” mode and its controversial Director Nina Jankowicz has resigned, citing “vile personal attacks and physical threats.” […]
America The Feckless by Philip Giraldi
How low can we go?Former Israeli army spokesman Avi Benayahu has already opined that “Let’s assume Shireen Abu Akleh was shot dead by IDF. No need to apologize for that.” Another revolting story concerns the murder of a Palestinian Christian journalist Shireen Abu Akleh, who also happens to be an American citizen. She was shot […]
Liberal Interventionists And Neoconservatives Dominate US Foreign Policy by Philip Giraldi
And the bad outcomes are predictable Once upon a time United States foreign policy was based on actual national interests, but that was long ago and far away before the country was beguiled into a colonial war with Spain followed by a twentieth century that was chock-a-block full of any type and intensity of warfare […]
US Diplomacy Continues To Be Invisible by Philip Giraldi
No deal with Iran and weapons for Ukraine Remember the Beatles’ song that went like this: “I read the news today, oh boy!”? To be sure there has not been much good news to savor recently, though notably, under the cover provided by the war in Ukraine’s domination of the news cycle, the Israel Lobby […]
Searching For War Criminals by Philip Giraldi
They are nearer than you think The United States is now insisting that Russian President Vladimir Putin should be put on trial for “war crimes” committed in Ukraine. As Putin is still insisting that he will attend the upcoming G20 summit in November on the island of Bali, Indonesia, it will be a great opportunity […]
Biden, Zelensky And The Neocons by Philip Giraldi
When you are in a hole, you can always dig deeper There are many backstories surfacing from what is going on in Ukraine and Washington that have been largely ignored amid the drumbeat of casualty counts combined with claims and counter-claims from the two sides. Two stories that I believe have received insufficient attention are […]
And What About Those Biolabs? by Philip Giraldi
Stop the narrative I want to get off! The semi-official United States government plus media lie machine knows that constructing a plausible reason to bomb the crap out of someone all depends on where you begin your narrative. If you keep starting your accusations at a point where the target has done something bad, all […]
Getting Away With Murder by Philip Giraldi
What’s a little torture between friends? So Russian President Vladimir Putin is a “thug and a murderous dictator.” That is the judgement of President of the United States Joe Biden, delivered directly to Putin during a phone conversation, and it is backed up by a unanimous vote in the US Senate endorsing Biden’s more recently […]
Goodbye America by Philip Giraldi
A country that cannot control its own borders cannot survive.There is new evidence of how the Biden Administration’s total disregard for reality evident in its blundering its way into war with Russia has severely damaged what once used to be referred to as national security. And while the White House and its media barking dogs […]
Who Wants War With Russia? by Philip Giraldi
The neocons and their allies might be making it happen Well, the genie is well and truly out of the bottle and there is no easy way to encourage it to return. Thanks to a relentless flow of propaganda, the American public has become increasingly convinced that the United States “looks weak” and must stand […]
Creating New Enemies by Philip Giraldi
American foreign policy produces dangerous alliances. It should come as no surprise that many observers, from various political perspectives, are beginning to note that there is something seriously disconnected in the fumbling foreign policy of the United States. The evacuation failure in Afghanistan shattered the already waning self-confidence of the American political elite and the […]
Fear And Loathing In Washington – The Biden Administration’s Crimes Against Humanity by Philip Giraldi
One can frequently disagree with government policies without necessarily regarding them with disgust, but the Joe Biden Administration has turned that corner, first with its senseless promotion of a new Cold War that could turn hot with Russia and, more recently, with its actions undertaken to undermine and punish Afghanistan. The fact that the White […]
Killing The Bill Of Rights by Philip Giraldi
Democrats repress dissent to stay in power. In 2005, President George W. Bush allegedly addressed a meeting of Republicans discussing whether to renew the Patriot Act due to its possible unconstitutionality by angrily blurting out that the Constitution was “just a goddamned piece of paper!” If the story is true, it partly explains the numerous […]
They’re Coming To Take You Away by Philip Giraldi
Biden Administration steps up its war on the American People. What would a completely unscrupulous chief executive whose sole purpose in life is to seize power and never relinquish it do to conceal his evil intentions? He or she would use deception to change the narrative. Many are beginning to recognize that that is precisely […]
Is Washington Under Alien Control? by Philip Giraldi
Biden and Blinken get everything backwards in terms of US interests. The drama currently unfolding in which the Biden Administration is doing everything it can to provoke a war with Russia over Ukraine is possibly the most frightening foreign policy misadventure since the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis and the 1967 Lyndon Johnson attempt to sink […]
Zionist Power Over Washington by Philip Giraldi
The US government promotes an international conspiracy. There have appeared a couple of stories recently that illustrate how there is only one “red line” that no one dares cross in Washington and that is criticism of Israel and its associated supportive mythologies of increasing “holocaust denial” and “surging anti-Semitism.” The rule is ruthlessly enforced by […]
Killing The First Amendment by Philip Giraldi
How “the Law” fails to deliver Justice. When one travels nearly anywhere in Europe where Medieval government centers, including courts, remain, one will frequently see the personification of a sometimes blindfolded woman representing Justice holding a sword in one hand and a scale or a scroll in the other. As soon as human beings came […]
Ghislaine Maxwell Convicted by Philip Giraldi
There has been a lot of speculation regarding whether convicted sex offender Ghislaine Maxwell will now “spill the beans” on the folks in power who exploited those young female offerings pedophile Jeffrey Epstein made available. No chance of that, I am afraid, as the trial itself was narrowly construed and limited to certain sex related […]
A More Aggressive Israel Lobby Is Coming In 2022 by Philip Giraldi
More money for the so-called “fight against hate.” Those Americans who dare to challenge the strangle-hold that Israel and its friends have over US foreign policy will likely find themselves targeted even more aggressively in the upcoming year. Two weeks ago the American Israeli Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), widely reckoned to be the largest and […]
Israel’s Dominance Of Washington by Philip Giraldi
It’s worse than ever but the “apartheid state” is increasingly under pressure. At the end of every year, I like to comment on the progress – and the setbacks – in our struggle to make the United States government understand that it exists to improve lives for Americans rather than working full time to pander […]
Ghislaine Maxwell Is Finally On Trial! by Philip Giraldi
Don’t expect much – the cover-up has already begun! Jeffrey Epstein procurer Ghislaine Maxwell is finally in court going through the juror selection process and opening arguments after a 17 month stay at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn. Given Epstein’s somewhat suspicious departure from this earth in what may have been a murder rather […]
Israel To Attack Iran? Washington Gives The Green Light To The ‘Military Option’ by Philip Giraldi
The U.S. will be seen as endorsing the crime, resulting in yet another foreign policy disaster in the Middle East. Some might recall candidate Joe Biden’s pledge to work to rejoin the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) which was a multilateral agreement intended to limit Iran’s ability to develop a nuclear weapon. The JCPOA […]
Why Not Question “The Holocaust” In Schools? by Philip Giraldi
The standard narrative does not stand up to serious historical scrutiny. There has been major pushback against a Texas state education official who said that if schools are adhering to a new state law that mandates teaching alternative points of view on controversial issues having a course and a book on the holocaust, for example, […]
The Latest Spy Story: Was It Involving Israel Yet Again? by Philip Giraldi
The strongest indicator that Israel was the planned recipient of what the Toebbe’s stole is the silence over who the target might have been. An intriguing though fragmentary espionage story made headlines eleven days ago and then disappeared abruptly, suggesting that some folks in high places in the government and media were fearing that the […]
The New American Leadership: Biden Tells The World What He Wants It To Know by Philip Giraldi
The myth of America trudges on with some new labels attached but otherwise pretty much the same.It is sometimes difficult to absorb how much the United States has changed in the past twenty years, and not for the better. When I was in grade school in the 1950s there was a favorite somewhat simplistic saying […]
Merrick Garland’s America – The Justice Department Targets Dissenters by Philip Giraldi
There have been a number of suggestions online that the withdrawal of American soldiers from overseas is being undertaken to use the troops against those individuals and domestic groups that are being targeted by the Justice Department. The possibility has a certain coherency given that we have a White House that it believes it has […]
Silencing Julian Assange: Why Bother With A Trial When You Can Just Kill Him? by Philip Giraldi
An English friend recently learned about the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) plan to either kidnap or kill journalist Julian Assange and quipped “I’ll bet he’s happy to be safe and sound in Belmarsh Prison if he has a chance to read about that!” I replied that his time in Belmarsh has been made as […]
The Amen Corner Strikes Again – Congress Is In Israel’s Pocket by Philip Giraldi
Once upon a time the Israel Lobby destroyed critics of the Jewish state and its behavior by stealth. If a Congressman or Senator were speaking honestly about the lopsided relationship with Israel which required suppressing, it was done by making sure that individual was not reelected. This was normally accomplished by vetting an attractive opposition […]
Let’s Arm The Gazans! by Philip Giraldi
Victims of aggression need America’s help! Well, here we go again. The Israelis, in collusion with no less than 420 criminals in the US Congress, have again ripped off the US taxpayer. I stop short of calling the congresscritters “traitors” because the US Constitution, which defines the word, requires that one actually be cooperating with […]
Putin The Poisoner? More Doubts Over Attempts To Delegitimize Russia’s Leader by Philip Giraldi
Attempts to delegitimize President Putin by making him an international poisoner is tragedy elevated by its absurdity to the level of farce. It seems that ever since Hillary Clinton lost to Donald Trump in the U.S. presidential election of 2016 the western media and numerous politicians have been working especially hard to convince the world […]
Another Look At 9/11: Ask Not ‘What Happened?’ But ‘Who Did It?’ by Philip Giraldi
The evidence of Israeli involvement is substantial, based on the level of the Jewish state’s espionage operations in the U.S.The evidence of Israeli involvement is substantial, based on the level of the Jewish state’s espionage operations in the U.S. and also its track record on so-called covert actions simulating terrorist attacks designed to influence political […]
The Evil That Men Do Lives After Them by Philip Giraldi
How about some accountability for Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria and Yemen? If you want to know how the United States wound up with “government by stupid” one need only look no farther than some of the recent propaganda put out by members of Congress, senior military officers and a certain former president. President George W. […]
Israel’s Secret Arsenal: It’s Not So Secret Anymore by Philip Giraldi
Israel has been allowed to get away with massive espionage directed against the U.S. and the theft of material and technology. Few Americans are aware of the fact that no U.S. government official, to include congressmen, can in any way mention or discuss Israel’s nuclear arsenal, which is estimated by some observers to consist of […]
Israel’s Lawyer Speaks Up by Philip Giraldi
Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb Iran. America’s foreign policy is a funny thing, except for the fact that it is no laughing matter. Given the recent sentencing of whistleblower Daniel Hale for revealing to the media that the US military’s drone program kills innocent civilians including many children 90% of the time, one has to […]
Was The Tanker Attack An Israeli False Flag? by Philip Giraldi
An incident that could lead to a much bigger war. In the United States we now live under a government that largely operates in secret, headed by an executive that ignores the constitutional separation of powers and backed by a legislature that is more interested in social engineering than in benefitting the American people. The […]
Washington’s Terrorist Friends: Prominent Americans Continue To Support A Murderous Cult by Philip Giraldi
MEK is a curious hybrid creature that pretends to be an alternative government option for Iran even though it is despised by nearly all Iranians. One might ask if Washington’s obsession with terrorism includes supporting radical armed groups as long as they are politically useful in attacking countries that the US regards as enemies? It […]
Another Israeli Spy Story: When Will It End? by Philip Giraldi
One wonders when the penny will drop and the American people will rise up and say enough is enough. It is perhaps not necessary to point out how the mainstream media in the United States as well as in Europe and Oceania persist in ignoring or otherwise covering up stories that make the Israelis look […]
Bomber Joe Biden Strikes Iraq And Syria: Retaliation Breeds More Incidents by Philip Giraldi
For the second time the president has ordered a US bombing raid on two targets in Syria, and for the first time, he also attacked a site inside Iraq. According to one report possibly as many as seven Iraqis died in the attacks which targeted alleged weapons storage facilities along the Syria-Iraq border belonging to […]
Joe Biden Bows To Force Majeure by Philip Giraldi
Kneeling before Israelis is latest indication of who rules in Washington. If one were only limited to viewing or reading the US mainstream media the story of how President Joe Biden went down on his knees to honor two visiting Israelis would never have surfaced. Fortunately, the story did make considerable waves in both the […]
A Country That Has Lost Its Way by Philip Giraldi
U.S. Government And Corporations Combine To Strip Citizens Of Their Rights The Biden Administration is calling on Americans to spy on friends, neighbors and family and reporting any “extremist” views to the authorities. The American people have increasingly become aware that government surveillance and corporate censorship have combined to keep people ignorant and controlled. What […]
The War On Antisemitism Gains Momentum by Philip Giraldi
Silencing criticism of Israel is the primary objective. It has frequently been observed how Jewish organizations in the United States and Western Europe exploit their claimed perpetual victimhood to excuse their own ethnocentric manipulations while also providing cover for Israeli war crimes. What they refer to as the “Holocaust” is, of course, central to the […]
Some Simple Lies Out Of Washington: Who Is The Terrorist And Who Is The Victim? by Philip Giraldi
What is particularly disturbing about the U.S. government response to what is taking place in Gaza is the lack of any actual American interest that is served by allowing Israelis to kill Palestinians. Quite the contrary, as Washington will be rightly blamed by nearly everyone for enabling Israeli behavior. Equally disturbing is the tissue of […]
Rampaging Israeli Settlers Calls For “Death To Arabs” In Jerusalem by Philip Giraldi
Last week there were some interesting stories that were very definitely underreported partly due to the fact that the mainstream media was heavily into the distraction provided by its beatification of George Floyd. For example, the tale of how a mob consisting of hundreds of Israeli Jews, composed mostly of settlers and the extremist so-called […]
The Intellectually Superior Perpetual Victim Again On Display by Philip M. Giraldi, Ph.D.
Bret Stephens tells us all about it. Shulamit Aloni has described Bret Stephens and the political culture that he comes out of. Criticizing Israel or the sometimes predatory behavior of American Jews is one of the few remaining total taboos in America. One marvels at the recent account of a basketball player who apparently blurted […]
Off To A Diverse Start: Biden Doubles Down On Some Bad Policies And Appointments by Philip Giraldi
The prize for the truly awful story of the week goes to the appointment of AIPAC monster [Dana Stroul] to head Pentagon planning for the Middle East. As telling other nations how to behave backed up by the 101st Airborne division has become a wonderful indoor board game in this age of Coronavirus-19, my favorite […]
