Relationships in the Middle East are hard to define and even when they work are often ephemeral and seldom last the course
Relationships in the Middle East are hard to define and even when they work are often ephemeral and seldom last the course. Recently we have seen the smoke and mirrors of how the west operates in Syria with the downfall of Assad followed swiftly by the installation of the most brutal terrorist to emerge from Iraq or Syria since Baghdad fell to U.S.
Asa Winstanley, 4 février 2026 - Six militants de Palestine Action, qui avaient pénétré par effraction dans une usine d'armement israélienne au Royaume-Uni, ont été acquittés de toutes les charges retenues contre eux.

The Palestinian Information Center, 5 février 2026.- Le Centre palestinien d'études sur les prisonniers a révélé que 26 prisonniers palestiniens incarcérés dans des prisons israéliennes souffrent de cancers de différentes formes. Leur état de santé est extrêmement précaire et leur vie est menacée à tout moment. Ils sont privés de soins appropriés et ne reçoivent que des analgésiques.
Tim Anderson, 3 février 2026. - Les libéraux de gauche occidentaux traînent un bien plus lourd bagage culturel impérialiste qu'ils ne veulent bien l'admettre. Or, en politique, à l'heure des guerres de propagande, le problème est que la perspective est primordiale. Sans elle, aucun slogan ne pourra vous sauver.
Illustration Zeinab el-Hajj pour Al Mayadeen English.
Cette défaillance autistique des perspectives des libéraux de gauche n'est pas due à une maladie neurologique, mais plutôt à un manque de perspective sociale, avec plusieurs causes profondes qui les transforment en alliés involontaires de leurs États impériaux (même s'ils contestent ce statut) et les opposent à la principale alternative émergente que représentent les BRICS et, en particulier, ses protagonistes les plus diabolisés : la Chine, la Russie et l'Iran.

International Man: Davos 2026 just wrapped, and in Trump's speech, he highlighted U.S. housing affordability.
He framed it as a tradeoff with protecting existing homeowners' wealth, warning that making homes "cheap" can crush values for people who already own them.
How do you evaluate it economically and politically-and what does it suggest governments are really trying to protect in housing markets?

Twenty years ago I arrived in France for a one-year sabbatical to work with the R&D group of a large French company, yet I am still here. And now it has been four years since I retired. The name of that company is Air Liquide ("Liquid Air" in English). I will present a short history of this significant, but relatively unknown, company to the general public.

It's clear that an organization which is, minimally, $38 TRILLION in debt can't afford to support the approximately 11.7 million foreign nationals crossing our borders in just the last five years - 10 million counted via border encounters and an additional estimated 1.7 million "gotaways." And that's only during the Biden Administration.
Including estimates for local, state and national expenses for migrant health care, education, social services, etc., dollar costs run to hundreds of billions per year.

Part of the upcoming "World War III" documentary
Few voices in the European debate on the war in Ukraine can claim to combine actual military experience with sound arguments for diplomatic pragmatism and persistent calls for an end to the conflict. General Harald Kujat stands out even among those precious few. He is a retired four-star general of the German Air Force, he served as Inspector General of the Bundeswehr from 2000 to 2002, the highest-ranking military position held by a commissioned officer on active duty in the German armed forces.
No group's criticisms of the current status quo world order are more incisive and accurate than theirs.

Political maturity is finally admitting to yourself that the angriest, most disconcerting communist you've ever met was pretty much right about everything.
If you learn enough, stay humble enough, and pay close enough attention, eventually that's what happens.

In 2021, amid a global pandemic, warnings that the federal government might repurpose warehouses into detention facilities on American soil were dismissed as speculative, alarmist, even conspiratorial.
Five years later, what was speculation is a blueprint for locking up whomever the government chooses to target.
According to investigative reports, the Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement are actively purchasing warehouses, factories and industrial buildings across the country for use as detention centers-often with little public notice, minimal oversight, and virtually no accountability.

Today the last nuclear treaty between the the United States and the Russian Federation expired. It is the first time in 64 years that there will be no limits on each side's nuclear forces.
The New START Treaty had been limiting the number of deployed strategic nuclear weapons and weapon carriers. Other nuclear related treaties like the Anti Ballistic Missile treaty, the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty and the Open Skies Treaty have previously been ended by various U.S.

The European Union, having just woken up to the United States under Donald Trump, doesn't know how to react to the breakdown of the transatlantic link. It can only respond as it always has, in every political crisis, by strengthening its federalism and its dependence on Washington. This maladjustment inevitably leads to its failure.
The European Union has been shaken by:

Congressional Republicans have been trying for seven months to get Bill and Hillary Clinton to talk about suspected international sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. The couple, who had numerous interactions with the pedophile, recently agreed to finally sit down for depositions - but on their own terms, which may be another stalling tactic.
On January 21, Republicans on the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, with help from nine Democrats, voted to recommend that the House hold the Clintons in contempt for disregarding subpoenas to testify.
