Where Is The Shame? Paul Craig Roberts Now that the Trump, May, and Macron regimes have proven beyond all doubt that they are lawless war criminal regimes, what is next?

The Crisis Is Only In Its Beginning Stages Paul Craig Roberts Many, including Russia’s President Putin, have asked why the US launched an illegal attack on Syria prior to the chemical weapons inspectors examining the site of the alleged chemical attack.

Why Do They Tell US Transparent Lies?

No significant Syrian site appears…

The Trump Regime Is Insane Paul Craig Roberts Is it insane to push for war with Russia, a major nuclear power? Is it insane to threaten Russia and bring false charges against her? Is it insane to brag about killing “hundreds of Russians”? https://news.antiwar.com/2018/04/12/pompeo-russians-met-their-match-us-killed-hundreds-of-them/ A normal person would answer “yes” to the three questions. So what does this tell us…

Can Nuclear War Be Avoided? Paul Craig Roberts Two factors are driving the world to nuclear war. One is the constant stream of insults, false accusations and broken agreements that the West has been dumping on Russia year after year. The other is Russia’s response, or, perhaps more correctly, the lack thereof. Articles documenting Washington’s betrayals and provocations of Russia…

Will Russia Wake Up? Paul Craig Roberts Russians are having a difficult time comprehending their Western enemy or even understanding that Russia has an enemy that seeks the destruction of Russia.

What Secretary of State Tillerson’s Firing Means Paul Craig Roberts Senator Chuck Schumer (D, NY) says Tillerson’s firing indicates that the Trump administration is disintegrating.

Amnesty International Is Barking Up The Wrong Tree Paul Craig Roberts I have received a letter from Margaret Huang, Amnesty International’s executive director.

Can’t You See War On The Horizon? Paul Craig Roberts According to news reports in the British press, Russian President Vladimir Putin has instructed Russia’s industries to prepare themselves to be able to make a quick switch to war production. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/vladimir-putin-russia-business-war-production-sochi-military-talks-a8069951.html Clearly, the Russian government would not make such an announcement unless it was convinced that the prospect of war…

Will America Survive Washington? Paul Craig Roberts In recent columns posted on my website, I brought attention to two dramatic and dangerous developments between the two major nuclear powers.

Is It Insanity, Evil, or Both that Has the Western World in Its Grip Paul Craig Roberts As the presstitute media has no allegiance to truth, one has to wonder if we can even believe obituaries.

Correction: I attributed this statement–“Russia will never again fight a war on its own territory”–made by Putin’s adviser Sergey Karaganov to Putin.

Dear Readers: This is your website. It needs your support. What Can Be Done?

In America Propaganda Has Vanquished Truth Paul Craig Roberts In Durham, North Carolina, the seat of Duke University, a gang of largely white males destroyed public property by pulling down a statue of a Confederate soldier.

Trump Will Now Become the War President Paul Craig Roberts President Trump has been defeated by the military/security complex and forced into continuing the orchestrated and dangerous tensions with Russia.

The Witch Hunt for Donald Trump Surpasses the Salem Witch Trials of 1692-93 Paul Craig Roberts We should be scared to death that Sally Q.
