I wanted to use the term of complex and often misunderstood meaning, 'erstwhile', in relation to China, modern China - itself a term of complex and often misunderstood meaning. But since 'erstwhile' is usually taken to refer to someone or something whose star once, somewhere back in time, shone brightly compared to others, but now... Continue Reading →
Real Democracy: People-Centric Capitalism – China Style
You can forget all talk of China failing economically. Such talk emanating only as caustic odours from septic western sources. China is on track for mastery of economic reform by 2029 as the west oozes slimily through the exhaust ventricles of its own decayed form in roughly the same timeframe. Here is a report by...

Good Geo-Political/Economic Information From Recent Online Videos
If you read my posts here with any regularity, you will be aware that I do not hold the Russia Today site (RT) with any high degree of repute. It seems to me to occupy a roughly similar role to that which the western gutter press in the printed news world does. Of course that... Continue Reading →
Russia – Building A Better World
While engaged in an all-important military defence of its own right to exist, fighting (and winning) against the rogue nations of the Western world who seek to impose their own will on all mankind, Russia still finds the strength and resources to engage in world-building endeavours of a truly global and liberty asserting nature.

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.

Well, not just a treat but a veritable feast of heart-warming, confidence building, viewpoint verifying, outlook affirming, news and confirmative assurance from - and 'in full flight' - Geopolitical Analyst, Pepe Escobar. Skillfully providing the setting and background to that, is interviewer Danny Haiphong (The Left Lens broadcast). Rarely does such an interviewer take a... Continue Reading →
‘Peaceful Modernization’ With Retained Sovereignty or ‘Neo-Medievalism’ Under US Hegemonic Vassalage
That is the choice facing this modern world. And there is still a choice to be made. The recent historical record shows how every nation trying to develop outside the Washington Consensus is terrorized at myriad hybrid war levels. This nation becomes a target of color revolutions, regime change, illegal sanctions, economic blockade, NATO sabotage... Continue Reading →
The New Global Era Needs A New Common Currency
I'm so pleased that Pepe Escobar chose to interview as 'The Cradle' in his latest talk with Financial expert Michael Hudson. This is another story of West versus The Rest, where western grip is also fading away. I cannot vouch for what this says since I have no expertise in finance but what little I... Continue Reading →
“Nothing personal. Just business.”
Oh my goodness, Escobar produces yet another gem. How does he do it? Where does he get his information? Don't tell me, I would prefer not to know. But it has the ring of truth and, as long as he produces stuff that is on the right side of history, I don't care what his... Continue Reading →
