| Americas Pivot Faces a Credibility Crisis |
| 12.08.15 08:57 |
Americas on the move |
| In response to Beijing’s massive reclamation activities across the Spratly Islands, giving birth to a sprawling network of military bases and advanced facilities on a string of disputed features, the United States has stepped up its reconnaissance missions in the area, presenting a more-than-just-symbolic challenge to Chinese assertion of sovereignty in international waters. |

| U.S. Dollar QE Death Sentence, Us Treasury Bond Black Hole |
| 10.08.15 15:04 |
Economics |
| Rather than stimulus, the USFeds Quantitative Easing is a death sentence for the USDollar. It might provide an ongoing backdoor bailout opportunity for Wall Street banks, and even a window for China to switch from long dated to short dated USTreasurys, but QE is death sentence. It guarantees that the USDollar will be removed from the global premises and placed in the dustbin of history. Foreign banking systems are largely devoted to USTBonds as the foundation for their entire reserves system |

| US Invasion of Syria: The Deep Breath Before the Plunge |
| 08.08.15 18:09 |
Global Security |
| When Foreign Policy magazine recently claimed, “Turkey Goes to War,” in their article of the same title, what they really meant was “the US goes to war.” That is because the lengthy plan they described in their article is not of the Turks’ creation, but a long-standing US plan committed to policy papers since at least as early as 2012 |

| The U.S. Is Destroying Europe |
| 08.08.15 17:52 |
European trends |
| In Libya, Syria, Ukraine, and other countries at the periphery or edges of Europe, U.S. President Barack Obama has been pursuing a policy of destabilization, and even of bombings and other military assistance, that drives millions of refugees out of those peripheral areas and into Europe, thereby adding fuel to the far-rightwing fires of anti-immigrant rejectionism, and of resultant political destabilization, throughout Europe, not only on its peripheries, but even as far away as in northern Europe |

| Perspectives on Russia: June 2015 |
| 20.07.15 21:03 |

| Our group of 20 citizen diplomats was composed of several travelers who had NEVER been to Russia. For them the trip was a new travelogue with Russian faces, discussions, home visits, and businesses appearing every few hours for the entire trip. I think all would say it was a real eye-opening experience. For others who had been there one or more times, they were shocked at the physical changes in Russia and the Russian people since they last traveled there. For several who have traveled to Russia multiple times over the past dozen years, they had kept up with Russias progress, and were fascinated to see into small and large private businesses, think tanks, have frank discussions with many new Russians––even for these watchful observers, Russia is still changing for the better. |

| The Greeks Fight Back: Oxi to Austerity |
| 11.07.15 09:46 |
European trends |
| The July 5 referendum in Greece provides the clearest and most inspiring evidence to date, but the message it conveyed has been clear for a long time: that people hate the banksters who impose austerity upon them, and that they hate austerity even more |

| Top German Banker: Russia and China Will Defeat US Hegemony |
| 17.06.15 11:22 |
European trends |
| Folker Hellmeyer, chief economist at Bremer Landesbank, has no doubts about the future of the global economic system: The axis Moscow-Beijing-BRICS will prevail against the old hegemon USA. These countries have had enough of the West, because they want to pursue a long-term strategy and not opportunism. The EU is likely to be among the losers, due to its blind sanctions-obedience |

| Texan fights tyranny in Ukraine |
| 16.06.15 17:37 |
European trends |
| The Alamo has always been known as the Thermopylae of the West. Like Spartans, the state of Texas in America has been known for fighting tyranny since they defeated Santa Anna and his men in the early 19th century and also for defying the government in the American Civil War. In WW2, Audie Murphy was Texas best in fighting the Nazis |

| Key lawmakers have moved to slash funding of a secret CIA operation to train and arm rebels in Syria, a move that U.S. officials said reflects rising skepticism of the effectiveness of the agency program and the Obama administration’s strategy in the Middle East |

| 14.06.15 11:15 |
European trends |
| The U.S. House of Representatives has admitted an ugly truth that the U.S. mainstream media has tried to hide from the American people – that the post-coup regime in Ukraine has relied heavily on Nazi storm troopers to carry out its bloody war against ethnic Russians, reports Robert Parry |
