Exposing the Very Secret World of Prohibited Bioweapons
This week, writing as of the 2nd week of March 2022, the United States will reach 1 million dead from COVID 19. This disease, according to, not so much facts, but rather the tired acceptance of corrupt press and a public sated with conspiracy theories, is the “Kung Flu.” As with false narratives, and there are so many, it all began with the Chinese love of “bat soup…

Why is the West Launching a Mercenary War?
Even in an era of moral decline of the autochthonous population, the rulers of the Roman Empire relied on mercenaries when military service turned from prestigious to onerous for their own citizens.

Australia and New Zealand Follow a Common Course
As might be expected, after the start of the Ukrainian special operation by Russian troops, Russia was hit by international sanctions, primarily from the West. Of course, permanent members of the “collective West” such as Australia and New Zealand have joined these sanctions. This is not surprising – as former British colonies, they are an indispensable part of the Anglosphere…

Japan, a Land of the Rising Sanctions
Although Japan used to be associated with the poetic name “Land of the Rising Sun,” it has recently been increasingly turning, through the fault of its current political authorities, into a “Land of the Rising Sanctions.” Until recently, under former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, relations between Russia and Japan were consistently good and even warm. Regular…

The crisis in Ukraine has spun the world backward on its axis. Russian President Vladimir Putin’s atypical military campaign, or denazification as some refer to it, has most western nations frantic for solutions.

US Enriches itself at the Expense of the EU Paralized by the Price Shock
Europe has been shaken by galloping gas prices in recent months, leading to financial and socio-political instability in the Old World.

Sri Lanka Remains a Bone of Contention in the Indian Ocean Region
Located fifty kilometers from Hindustan (i.e. from what is now one of the largest states, the “Republic of India”), the island country of Sri Lanka has never suffered from a lack of attention from the world’s leading players. This is due to the island’s critical strategic position in the Indian Ocean. Such a position always and for all such countries…

The Biden Administration Steals Afghanistan’s Money
After keeping it under direct occupation, destroying the country for 20 years – and failing to militarily defeat the Taliban (banned in Russia) – Joe Biden’s executive order to simply seize half of Afghanistan’s little over US$7 billion to use it to pay to the victims of 9/11 is just a mockery of the “values” that the US always claims to hold. With the world’s richest…

Ukrainian Refugees are Everywhere, Especially Woman and Children
The war in Ukraine has, as expected, brought yet another flow of migrants. This latest wave is being greeted with either flag-waving enthusiasm or weary resignation, but few are noticing that it adds a new dimension to the existing refugee and geopolitical situation. Most refugees come from Third World countries and live in other Third World…

The South Korean presidential candidate Yoon Suk-yeol recently stated that he thought a preemptive strike against the DPRK would be justified, since, if the latter were to launch a rocket armed with a nuclear warhead against Seoul, it would be almost impossible to intercept itю The only option would be to forestall the attack. This statement triggered a great deal…
