Only by the form, the pattern,Can words or music reachThe stillness, as a Chinese jar stillMoves perpetually in its stillness.Not the stillness of the violin, while the note lasts,Not that only, but the co-existence,Or say that the end precedes the beginning,And the end and the beginning were always thereBefore the beginning and after the end.And...

Essential Information for Understanding World Situation, as at June 4, 2025
To begin, I recommend you watch this episode of Dialogue Works on YouTube or elsewhere. It feeds from this appraisal by Pepe Escobar on Strategic Culture Foundation, which I suggest you read first... 'Waiting for the Oreshniks, while the Istanbul kabuki proceeds “not negatively”' - Pepe Escobar - Strategic Culture Foundation, Jun 3, 2025 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eVj5Jl2yORY...

“Mandala at work, Chinese-style” – Pepe Escobar
A few days ago I wrote about the significant meeting of Asian minds coming together at the recent and first ever ASEAN-GCC-China Summit in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I could see the real importance in this meeting but I did not have the words to convey the fullness of that significance (I know my limits). But... Continue Reading →
“A Bunch of Clowns in Washington” Think They Can Beat The Houthis (Ansarallah). Another Case of Ha-Ha-Ha-Hah! What a Bunch of Maroons!!
They are, as usual, lying to themselves again. There is no chance. They will run out of Carrier fleets first. Such activity is now over for the West. But of course, they are too dumb to realise that.

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

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. 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 →
