The title to this paper is indeed historical fact. Myself and many writers have attempted and failed to get The People to pressure Congress and the President to follow the Constitution, which is the only way to prevent Dystopia and an insurrection. Make no mistake, we are well on the way to hell on earth.

Our Parasitic Super-Rich Ruling Class (Rulers) control everything and all that they do is designed to reduce the people to abject slavery and hunger, owning nothing, with no Constitutional Rights.

In the Western World, and perhaps worldwide, Russia's unwillingness to retaliate for the destruction of the Nord Stream Pipeline hurt Russia's prestige and convinced Washington's Zionist neoconservatives that Putin's Russia was a paper tiger. In fact, Washington was already convinced, or Washington would not have dared to blow up the pipeline bringing Russian energy to Europe.

Editor's NoteThis investigative narrative examines the expanding physical footprint of AI infrastructure and the societal risks that emerge when computational systems begin to depend on the same essentials as human communities.

THE HUM THAT NEVER STOPS

Anvar Azimov,

Les événements qui se sont déroulés à New Delhi du 13 au 15 mai - la visite bilatérale du ministre russe des Affaires étrangères, Sergueï Lavrov, et la réunion ministérielle élargie des BRICS - ont une fois de plus démontré le caractère unique et sans précédent du partenariat stratégique spécial et privilégié russo-indien.

Bien que ces deux événements importants se soient déroulés dans un contexte international complexe et turbulent, leurs résultats inspirent confiance et témoignent de l'influence croissante et des efforts accrus des pays qui aspirent à un ordre mondial multipolaire plus juste, démocratique et équilibré.

Professor Michael Hudson - in conversation with Ali Alizadeh, Jedaal TV, Iran

AA - The American readout of the Trump-Xi meeting claims that Xi explicitly agreed that the Strait of Hormuz must remain open, that there must be no tolls, that China opposes the militarisation of the Strait, that China will buy more American oil to reduce its dependence on Hormuz, and that Iran must never have a nuclear weapon.

Una portaerei statunitense non incute più il timore di un tempo; oggi trasmette piuttosto un senso di vulnerabilità.

Sebbene la guerra in Iran sia stata in gran parte osservata attraverso la lente della guerra convenzionale occidentale, le sue lezioni sono tutt'altro che convenzionali. Sono infatti di natura insurrezionale.

L'approccio occidentale del dopoguerra (soprattutto nel contesto della Guerra Fredda) si basava sulla capacità di superare in termini di spesa qualsiasi avversario militare attraverso l'acquisizione di velivoli con equipaggio e munizioni di fascia alta, iper-ingegnerizzati e costosi.

Des universités aux centres de recherche médicale, Israël et les États-Unis s'attaquent systématiquement aux infrastructures techniques de l'Iran. Tout en affirmant que leur seul différend concerne les dirigeants iraniens, ils prennent pour cible l'ensemble de la population et ses réalisations.

Lorsque le ministre israélien de la Défense, Israel Katz, a annoncé, avec l'air satisfait d'un industriel contemplant la concurrence anéantie, que les frappes israéliennes avaient détruit environ 70 % des capacités de production sidérurgique de l'Iran, il ne décrivait pas un exploit militaire.

Selon un article publié par Asra Media le 7 mai, plusieurs anciens prisonniers palestiniens ont livré des témoignages directs et inquiétants sur les tortures systématiques et le grave déclin physique subis par le docteur Hussam Abu Safia, directeur de l'hôpital Kamal Adwan de Gaza, pendant sa détention dans une prison israélienne.

Le Grand Soir (avec l'aide des lecteurs) a envoyé Loïc et Erwan, deux de ses journalistes, en Russie - à Moscou - et dans le Donbass en guerre, pour réaliser un film. En attendant celui-ci, voici la première partie du récit écrit de ce reportage.

La chose n'aura pas été facile. Cela nous aura coûté plusieurs mois d'attente, 3 modifications de billets d'avion et pas mal de stress mais au final, les autorités russes nous ont délivré les visas en tant que journalistes.

They named it catastrophe because no other word held the weight of what was taken.

Not just the land. The olive trees with their centuries folded into root. The stone houses with their doors still warm from the hands that had always opened them. The names of villages that exist now only in the mouths of those who were made to leave them, passed down like holy text, like wound, like compass.

Donald Trump, président américain, et Xi Jinping, président chinois, à Pékin, le 15 mai 2026

15 mai 2026, 21:09

Pendant sa fastueuse visite de deux jours en Chine, le président américain Donald Trump, à son habitude, a fait usage d'une rhétorique grandiloquente. Cependant, ses beaux discours n'ont pu masquer la maigreur des résultats obtenus par Washington, tandis que Pékin, au contraire, a marqué des points.

Amid escalating U.S. aggression towards the Cuban island through a maximum pressure campaign and the threat of military intervention, the United States government has been covertly funding a huge network of Cuban media outlets that claim to be independent in a push for regime change against the independent socialist government.

These outlets present themselves as unbiased investigative journalism, but are quietly being financed by Washington through USAID, the National Endowment for Democracy and the Open Society Foundation in order to sow discontent across the Caribbean nation, softening it up for a potentially "imminent" invasion by the Trump administration.

U.S. President Donald Trump's state visit to China this week was a landmark event in more than one way.

U.S. President Donald Trump's state visit to China this week was a landmark event in more than one way. He was warmly received by Chinese President Xi Jinping amid much ceremony and splendour provided by the People's Republic.

The last time an American president set foot on Chinese soil was in 2017, when Trump visited during his first administration.
