This article was written for the Unz Review Do you think his assessment is accurate? was the subject line of an email I got from a good friend recently. The email referred to the article by Paul Craig Roberts One Day Tomorrow Wont Arrive which claimed that the US military is now second class compared to the Russian military. The article then went on to list a number of Russian weapons systems which were clearly superior to their US counterparts (when those even existed). My reply was short Basically yes. The USA definitely has the quantitative advantage, but in terms of quality and training, Russia is way ahead. It all depends on on specific ...

RT...The best way to beat US sanctions against Iran and Russia is joint efforts to dump the American currency in bilateral trade, according to Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. "By ignoring the negative propaganda of the enemies, that seek to weaken relations between countries, we can nullify US sanctions, using methods such as eliminating the dollar and replacing it with national currencies in transactions between two or more parties; thus, isolate the Americans," he said on Wednesday at a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Tehran.

Russia Draws the Line on Phony Syria "Sarin Gas Attack" at the UN Post Date: 2017-11-01 19:53:42 by Ada

As the whole Western world doubles down on the lie that Syria used chemical weapons in Khan Shaikoun, it is time for Russia's leaders to tell them the raw truth - that the pretext for the US cruise missile strike was entirely fabricated by its proxy forces in Syria. Khan Shaikoun will surely go down in history at some time when the true history of the war on Syria is written as the name of the defining moment in the whole six years of the war. Not because anything particularly different or irregular happened in this town, occupied by Al Qaeda-style militants, but because of Americas act of war against the Syrian state that followed it. This is ...

Claims War Authorizations Allow US to Stay in Iraq Testifying to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson revealed that the US presence in Iraq is so permanent at this point that even if Iraq specifically requests the US withdraw and removes permission for them to be there, the US will remain. Tillerson addressed the question from Sen. Tom Udall (D-NM), who asked whether the US intended to stay in Iraq uninvited like they are in Syria. Tillerson insisted the 2001 and 2002 Authorizations for Use of Military Force (AUMF) gave the US legal authority to stay. This appears to be an entirely new position for the US government, as the Bush Administration agreed ...

Putin resets Iraqi energy landscape as Barzani steps aside Post Date: 2017-11-01 15:42:27 by Horse

Russian steps, US misstep, in Iraq Russian President Vladimir Putin repositioned himself as a key broker of Iraqi energy politics last week, while US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson was scolded by the Iraqi government for his comments about Iraqs Popular Mobilization Units (PMU). Given Americas history and assets in Iraq, it seems a reach that Russia could be outflanking the United States in Iraq, as we suggested last week. But while Putin choreographs each move with a wary and calculating eye on Iran and the ever-shifting regional landscape, the United States limits its options by seeing every Iranian move as adversarial and in zero-sum terms, which only serves to frustrate ...

The trouble is the central banks are between a rock and a hard place and being driven into action for the sake of being seen to be in control Ever pinched yourself and wondered whether you are living in some kind of bizarre universe of distorted perceptional reality, but fearing it is all going to end in tears? It seems like that now. The central banks appear to have it all sorted, the global economy is bouncing back, risk assets are booming and market fear gauges like the VIX volatility index are saying there is no need to fret.

Memo to Senator John McCain: Senator, the other day I noticed that, as chairman of the Armed Services Committee, you threatened to subpoena the Trump administration for information about the recent attack in Niger that killed four American soldiers. Theres a mindset over there that theyre a unicameral government, you said. It was easier under Obama
We are coequal branches of government; we should be informed at all times. Were just not getting the information in the timely fashion that we need. How true! But let me make one small suggestion. If you really want to know what led to those deaths in Niger, the first place you might consider ...

Hoping to win India's defense industry business the US has added virtually all of India's partners in Russia to its sanctioned companies list In the post-cold war era, the United States and Russia kept a decent distance vis-à-vis each other while ploughing their respective relations with India each pursuing own interests without trespassing into the others domain. But the big-power rivalries have been hotting up. Washington is in an unseemly hurry to to herd India into the fold of a US-led alliance system in Asia. The favourable constellation of Indian foreign-policy elite may not last forever. However, India still has a special and privileged ...

SyriaPerspective Well, youd think Rex Tillerson, the embattled American Secretary of State would have learned his lesson by now. Youd think that the shadows of Berluscony, Zapatero. Westerwelle, Clinton, Cameron, Sarkozy, Hollande, Kerry and so many other losers would cast a guiding light along Tillersons path and that he would follow that light to his own salvation. But, not so, for Mr. Tillerson, the awkward-looking Texan who once led Exxon-Mobil and the American Boy Scouts Association only to finally hang up his stirrups and gun belt at Foggy Botton in an administration so infused with braggadocio and mental squalor it reminds one of a television show ...

The New York Times, which once postured as the champion of a free press, now is seeking crackdowns on news that the public gets from the Internet under the guise of combatting Russian propaganda Once upon a time the danger to a free press came from the right. But since Russia-gate, liberals have been busy playing catch-up. The latest example is a front-page article in Tuesdays New York Times. Entitled YouTube Gave Russian Outlet Portal Into U.S., it offers the usual blah-blah-blah about Kremlin agents engaging in the political black arts. But it goes a step farther by attempting to discredit a perfectly legitimate news organization. Reporters Daisuke ...

Sobering precedents from the animal kingdom. This essay is part of our symposium on the worlds most important graph. Global Demographic Projections We asked our contributors to answer the following questions: What should the white West do about this prediction, and what will we do about it? Precolonial Africa was far more thinly populated than Europe due both to the inability of its pastoral and primitive agricultural economies to support a dense human population and to the much greater prevalence of disease. The high natural fertility of Africans was an evolutionary response to the precariousness of human life in a disease-ridden environment. European ...
