You could say, and you would be right, that Russia needed the Wagner 'Intervention' of the 24-25 June. Whether planned or from somewhere out-of-the-blue, it has brought a great change in Russia. A change that may not yet be fully understood but a change that has brought Russians together and infused the nation with a... Continue Reading →
Andrew Korybko is Wrong… Doubly Wrong
You may or may not know of Andrew Korybko but I felt justified in using his name in the title line of this piece because the guy has so incensed me. I had no intention of writing tonight - being content to let matters of global importance ride along as they will until a clearer... Continue Reading →
Motherland and/or Fatherland?
Throughout life there are moments, precious moments, meaningful moments, where some question - the answer to which has remained fuzzily but not entirely defined in the back of our mind, perhaps for many years - is suddenly made clear by some revealing but unplanned event. Such revelations remain fixed, perhaps as sweet moments, long remembered.... Continue Reading →
“Fuck Them,” said Mr Putin,
...but no-one seems to have noticed - or may have interpreted the unmistakable summary dismissal as some bland and totally incorrect but more polite alternative. During the moderator's question time following what was Mr Putin's longest ever, and perhaps most important speech, at this year's SPIEF (I point out specifically that this was not part...

The 'West versus Russia' Ukraine affair, now being seen as what it always was - a victory for the world, in the form of a new multipolar world order, and the end of Anglo-Saxon global dominance (you did know it is now all but over, didn't you? Russia and the world won of course), I... Continue Reading →
Ukraine? It’s All Over
I am refraining from commentary on the day-to-day theatrics which comprise the back and forth of ground movements in Ukraine and, leaving aside the human cost of all that - because it no longer makes any sense to discuss it outside of war crimes hearings. Also setting aside the fact that I may be going... Continue Reading →

Toronto based international criminal lawyer, Christopher Black, talks around why that need exists, here... 'Britain At War-Provoking The Consequences' - NEO - May 26, 2023 A great and timely piece. An example needs to be made of one of the offending nations, both as a warning and also acting as a deterrent. And perhaps the... Continue Reading →
Truth Will Always Out – You Just Have To Wait A Bit
Nothing can be hidden, completely or forever. Though some go to great lengths, and at great expense, to try to do so. But the truth eventually has to match reality. Sadly, it has to be admitted, and for many, their eyes and minds may still be shielded by acceptance of some obviously made-up, and yet... Continue Reading →
Not Something Else
