Regime change in store for cultural conservatives?

America Goes To War by Philip Giraldi

America The Feckless by Philip Giraldi

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 […]
