| I became interested in what happened in Srebrenica in July of 1995, during the Bosnian war, when in 2001 at the Hague I became involved in the defense of a Bosnian Serb officer accused of war crimes before the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia. I was in America, of course, while the war was going on and knew nothing of Srebrenica at that time. Neither did I have any axe to grind in the controversies that sparked that conflict. I was raised and educated in the United States, had a very vague concept of my ethnic background(s), and neither I nor my family had suffered any detriment at the hands of the other contending parties, so I had no motive to favor one side or disfavor another. As we sifted through the evidence in order to construct a defense, I noticed that the prosecution’s case consisted of broad allegations and was bereft of specific facts to support the grave charges laid against the defendant, which included genocide, an accusation that takes much highly technical evidence to prove. |

| 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 |

| 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 |

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 |

European trends |
| Obama speaks of the need to respect Ukraine’s territorial integrity conveniently forgetting the powers which violently and illegally overthrew Ukraine’s constitutional order in the Maidan revolution may not have a better claim to Eastern Ukraine than the people who live there and rejected them |

| A few thoughts about the murder of Mozgovoi |
| 24.05.15 18:58 |
European trends |
| Friends, I will be honest with you: the murder of Mozgovoi hit me like a punch in the stomach, just as had happened with Buzina my first thought upon hearing the news was “Oh God – not him!”. I did not always agree with everything these two man said, but they were dear to my heart for their immense, truly shining, honesty |
