Much like individuals, countries may often become victims of their own great success. This risk certainly applies to criminals, including criminal regimes. Even if they effectively conceal their direct involvement in particular incidents, over time their method of operation---their "M.O."---may become obvious. This allows the ready identification of their handiwork, whether by law enforcement agencies... Read More

About a year ago, I first began exploring the powerful new AI systems that had been receiving so much public attention, and incorporated some of their features into our website. For myself and many of our other writers, I added focused chatbots that used the corpus of the written works hosted on our website to... Read More

Although ChatGPT and other AI systems have received massive media attention since late 2022, I only began dipping my toe in those waters about a year ago. At that time, I released a series of chatbots for many of the individual authors on our website, with each of these produced by focusing it individually upon... Read More

I have published a couple of articles summarizing my discussion on 911 with two AI Assistants (ChatGPT and DeepSeek) in the past year. I decided to have a similar conversation with Grok and the result was illuminating. I started with a general question about 911 and Grok, unsurprisingly, gave me the official version that is...

Although Candace Owens had spent several years as a wildly popular right-wing "influencer" on social media and podcasts, she'd never written any substantial articles, so I'd only been vaguely aware of her. However, as a deeply committed Christian, she became horrified by the ongoing Israeli slaughter in Gaza, and very publicly broke with her longtime... Read More

President Donald Trump’s address to Congress and the nation on Tuesday night was remarkably devoid of any mention of why the United States continues to both enable and be complicit in the Ukrainian conflict with Russia as well as with the war crimes that are being committed by the state of Israel against nearly all...

Two historical events have mesmerized me since 2017 – JFK assassination and 911 attacks. I have read numerous books, visited hundreds of websites, and watched untold numbers of videos on Rumble and YouTube. I have read two dozen books on 911 alone from David Ray Griffin, Kevin Ryan, Webster Griffin Tarpley, Mark Gaffney, Chris Bollyn,... Read More

The story: Did you believe it 30 years ago when they told you that the Oslo Accords would bring peace to the Middle East? That Israel would finally withdraw from the Palestinian territories it had illegally occupied for decades, end its brutal repression of the Palestinian people, and allow a Palestinian state to be created...

Decades ago I became fully convinced that UFOs were real. I even accepted that past visits to our planet of such space aliens had been the basis for many of the religious myths of different societies all around the world, just as Erich von Däniken had argued in his massive 1971 bestseller Chariots of the...

Hans Vogel argues that the rise of BRICS as a successor to the Non-Aligned Movement reflects a global shift away from Western dominance, fueled by the decline of US imperialism, the failures of neocolonialism, and a resurgence of nations striving for true sovereignty and indigenous values. Now that BRICS is expanding and becoming increasingly powerful,... Read More

It has been clear since the terror attacks in New York and Washington on Sept. 11, 2001 — the date I choose to mark a great turn in the global order — that America’s abdication of its postwar hegemony was to rank high among the 21st century’s defining events. The questions from that day onward... Read More

President-elect Donald Trump’s selection of Tulsi Gabbard to be director of national intelligence (DNI) will cause shockwaves in and among the 18 fiefdoms that now comprise the U.S. intelligence community. Gabbard will be fighting an uphill battle if she tries to herd those 18 cats into a cohesive whole and restore integrity to intelligence analysis.... Read More

As the conflict expands across the Middle East, western leaders refuse to implement any red lines for Tel Aviv Nearly a decade ago, a leading Israeli human rights activist divulged to me a private conversation he’d had a short time earlier with one of Europe’s ambassadors to Israel. He was shaken by the exchange. The... Read More

Today marks the one year anniversary of the remarkably successful Hamas raid on Israel, in which some 1,500 lightly-armed Islamic militants from Gaza so greatly humiliated the government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his country's entire national security establishment. The consequences of these last twelve months have been enormous, not merely for the Jewish... Read More

The 23rd anniversary of the 9/11 Attacks came earlier this month, and I published an article reviewing those historic events and analyzing the important evidence always ignored by our mainstream media. This time I sought to place that story within the context of the rapidly-approaching first anniversary of the 10/7 Hamas raid, which had launched... Read More

For the last half-dozen years, Israeli-born Ronan Bergman has served as a reporter with the New York Times, and I've regularly heard him described as the best-connected American journalist in Israel, with especially close ties to that country's powerful security services such as the Mossad, Shin Bet, and Unit 8200. Much of that reputation goes... Read More

On September 11, 2004, the New York Times published an opinion piece commemorating the third anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks. The article began by acknowledging that key facts about what happened that day continued to be withheld by government agencies: These are extraordinary words from our nation’s newspaper of record. The suggestion that the... Read More

The eleven month anniversary of the October 7th Hamas attacks on Israel passed two days ago and in two more days we will reach the twenty-third anniversary of the September 11th Attacks on America. Both these events have become so infamous that they are now among the tiny handful that can easily be identified merely... Read More

For 45 years I've read the New York Times in its print edition almost each and every morning, together with the Wall Street Journal. Until about a decade ago, I also read four of California's leading newspapers in similar fashion, but as they declined into just pale shadows of what they once had been, I... Read More

24 AUGUST—Orit Malka Strook serves in the Netanyahu government as minister of settlements and national missions. She has a seat in the Knesset representing the National Religious Party–Religious Zionism, a political amalgam formed last year when the Religious Zionism party merged with the Jewish Home party, which was itself a merger of three Zionist-extremist parties....
