Some months ago - it seems like that anyway - when RFK Jr was considering a run for the presidency against Trump, I wrote something like 'Neither of these men is the answer to US leadership problems'. And I meant it. I still do. Even though they appear to be now on the same side,... Continue Reading →
“Creating a Common System of Eurasian Security” – Putin
This man. President Putin, is so on the ball, the dust now beginning to clear from the global pre-occupation around an election process in another land which did not really merit such attention. In clearer air, the real world issues can be seen now and, with a new reality emerging, perhaps some nations, perceiving their... Continue Reading →
All is Not What it Seems – The West Cannot Shut Down mBridge for BRICS Members
This is quite a long (45 minutes) video podcast from the channel of Lena Petrova - and long podcasts and myself generally do not mix well. But I managed to maintain interest in what information was being passed from a distinguished guest to the show. and managed to see what was being said as being... Continue Reading →
Here’s a Thought…
'US can stop conflict in Ukraine quickly because it is involved in it — Kremlin spokesman' - TASS - November 7 That's the dashing Dmitry Peskov, Kremlin Spokesman, quick off the mark to address one of Trump's election promises. [I have given up on the 'i's and 'y's of ending Dmitry - being an old-timer... Continue Reading →

If greenhouse gases are invisible, and I suppose that is true of the various gaseous elements included in that fictitious grouping, then why the need - a... Continue Reading →
I Smell A Moldovan Rat
In what must be one of the most important elections - overshadowing anything that happens in the US today - for the borderline nation of Moldova, while victory is being hailed for the pro-western government of Maia Sandu over the pro-Russian opposition (uniquely joined this time to field a single unified candidate for president and...

On the Ineffectiveness of US and Western Capability to Change Anything that Matters in the World
Did you doubt anything I said yesterday on the back of what Dmitry Medvedev said about the US Elections? Well, I'm not going to say much more, having said all I need to say on that matter, but I saw this video interview with Scott Ritter on the Dialogue Works podcast, and I must recommend...

Dmitry Medvedev – The Cat With The Cream
Dmitry Medvedev, Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council, continues his unleashed or, probably more correct, long-leashed role as the nation's 'diplomatic' attack dog. I think I mixed my metaphors a bit there since it is cats who generally get the cream. Whatever. Anyway, I'm sure he is enjoying immensely the freedoms his not necessarily... Continue Reading →
