La Neue Zürcher Zeitung formule de manière exceptionnellement tranchante ce qui est depuis des années occulté à Berlin: la critique de l'Ukraine est largement taboue en Allemagne. Même lorsque des intérêts allemands fondamentaux sont directement touchés, Berlin ne réagit pas en tant qu'État souverain, mais comme un prisonnier politique, victime de sa propre narration.
Professor Michael Hudson - in discussion with Ian Proud, 1 May
IP - I was talking about the old adage that "wars are won by economies not armies", and I think the war in Iran has slightly refined that phrase, that "wars are won by economics not military force". What's your view?
MH - my view is probably in agreement with what the military is said to have discussed with Donald Trump last night and for the last few days.

Saudi Arabia and the UAE are both very much victims of the war, but each has an entirely different approach to finding a working solution - if the Trump-Iran deal holds.
Saudi Arabia and the UAE are both very much victims of the war, but each has an entirely different approach to finding a working solution - if the Trump-Iran deal holds.
One of the consequences of Trump's disastrous Iran strategy is that it has wrecked relations between the GCC countries and Washington, perhaps forever.

The war in Ukraine has entered a phase in which truces no longer resemble a bridge to peace, but rather a parallel battlefield.
A Tactical Truce?
The war in Ukraine has for some time now entered a phase in which truces no longer resemble a bridge to peace, but rather a parallel battlefield.
The words "ceasefire" no longer evoke only the silence of weapons: they serve to gauge the balance of power, to test nerves, to produce images, and to impose political interpretations.

La propaganda mediatica occidentale descrive l'Iran come un Paese distrutto e costretto alla resa. Ma il controllo dello Stretto di Hormuz, l'impatto globale del blocco navale e la stessa dinamica negoziale mostrano una realtà opposta: Teheran tratta da una posizione di forza.
La narrazione dominante dei media occidentali sull'Iran segue da anni uno schema quasi automatico: ogni crisi viene presentata come l'ultima, ogni pressione esterna come il colpo definitivo, ogni difficoltà interna come la prova dell'imminente collasso della Repubblica Islamica.
Brigitte Challande, 6 mai 2026.- Compte rendu du programme éducatif mené par l'UJFP : comment les Palestiniens s'accrochent au fil de l'avenir au milieu des décombres, 5 mai.
"Dans une réalité où les crises s'entremêlent, où les défis s'accumulent, l'éducation chez les Palestiniens s'impose comme un choix irrévocable, une conviction profondément ancrée qui dépasse la dureté des conditions de vie quotidiennes.
Brigitte Challande, 6 mai 2026.- Sur le rivage de l'attente, avec les couleurs de l'espoir vers la flottille de la liberté le 5 mai 2026 dans le port de Gaza.
"Dans un moment qui dépasse les limites d'une activité scolaire traditionnelle pour entrer au cœur de l'action nationale et humaine, l'école Les Premiers Pas (affiliée à UJFP) a organisé une activité au port de Gaza. L'administration de l'école et des élèves de différents niveaux scolaires s'y sont réunies dans une scène qui portait en elle un message clair : la nouvelle génération à Gaza ne vit pas seulement sous le poids du blocus, elle le comprend, le rejette et cherche des moyens créatifs d'exprimer sa position.
Adnan Hmidan, 4 mai 2026. - Chaque fois qu'une nouvelle flottille prend la mer en direction de Gaza pour tenter de briser le blocus, la même question se pose : à quoi bon si ces navires sont interceptés avant d'arriver ?
Des captures d'écran de vidéos de surveillance montrent l'équipage de la mission de printemps 2026 de la Flottille mondiale Sumud bloqué par des navires de guerre et des drones israéliens en mer Méditerranée le 30 avril 2026.
Centre Palestinien d'Information, 6 mai 2026.- Lorsque le prisonnier libéré Ahmed Qadas a aperçu le docteur Hussam Abu Safiya en prison, il ne l'a pas reconnu immédiatement : où était passé ce corps épuisé et cette voix faible, loin de l'homme dont la présence remplissait les lieux et qui apparaissait sur les écrans locaux et internationaux avec une forte prestance ?
2Collectif Free Palestine Guyane, 6 mai 2026. - La Revue Littéraire Oyapock et le Collectif Free Palestine Guyane ont proposé le 2 mai une soirée de poésie palestinienne avec des lectures de poèmes de Mahmoud Darwich, l'accompagnement d'un trio de musiciens et une exposition des carnets de l'artiste Sohail Salem.

In 200-plus years of interpreting the free speech clause of the First Amendment, the courts have narrowed and expanded its scope. The Supreme Court employed a particularly narrow approach during much of the last century, through two world wars and then the Red Scare in the 1950s.
Thankfully, in the 1960s, the Warren Court began a remarkable and thus far unimpeded march toward compelling the government to tolerate open, wide, caustic and even threatening speech.

In January of 1917, V.I. Lenin was disappointed. He was living in exile in Zurich, having failed to bring about a communist revolution in Russia in the wake of the Russian revolution of 1905. Yet, being a committed revolutionary, he refused to declare defeat. In a speech to socialists on January 22, Lenin described the failure to win a decisive battle against the Russian regime as a "temporary defeat." Nonetheless, he did not know when a similar opportunity might arise and he told his audience:

We've all heard about Project Blue Beam, which revolves around a fake alien invasion of Earth. Many have speculated that we were on the verge of such a fake invasion before. So I'm certainly not going to predict one now. However, if you wanted to distract the public in such a massive way, this seems like the perfect time.
Donald Trump recently rekindled such suspicions, with a speech at a Turning Point USA event.
The US President needs authorization from Congress if he wants to resume military action in the Middle East.

Apparently, the irresponsible decision by US President Donald Trump to go to war against Iran is already having a strong domestic impact. American lawmakers are moving efforts to prevent Trump from preserving his "exceptional" powers regarding the current conflict in the Middle East.

The very first story on the Drudge Report on both April 23 and 24 was headlined with a quote from Bernard Arnault saying if the Iran war was not quickly settled, it could be a "world catastrophe."
I apparently do not keep up with world business as much as I should, because I did not know that Arnault is one the three richest men in the world along with Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos.

Trump and Netanyahu are not the only politicians who have trapped themselves in a war to their electoral disadvantage. The two are joined at the hip not only in purpose but in stupidity. The two stooges overestimated their military prowess and underestimated Iran's. If Iran had kept to its vow and not agreed to a ceasefire at Israel and Washington's request, Iran's victory would be complete.

We live at a time when deception is running rampant. Iran is not telling the truth about what is going on in the Strait of Hormuz. Neither is the Pentagon. On Monday, a few commercial vessels were able to get through the Strait. On Tuesday, that number dropped to zero. That isn't progress. In fact, that is the opposite of progress. The closure of the Strait of Hormuz by Iran is the greatest threat to the global economy that I have seen in my entire lifetime.
