The Second World War was the most destructive conflict in history. It left Europe in ruins, its economies severely damaged and millions of its people facing malnutrition, its political systems shaken if not destroyed.

Then at the end of the 1980s, the postwar settlement disintegrated, and a new chapter in Europe's postwar history had begun.

Listen to commentators and a pattern quickly emerges: the more liberal the speaker, the more likely they are to attack Israel. Worse, many liberals say things about Israel that are patently false.

Israel had withdrawn from Gaza almost twenty years before.

Mit Putins allumfassenden Angriffskrieg gegen die Ukraine stehen drei Jahrzehnte deutscher Außenpolitik auf dem Prüfstand. Spannend wie in einem Thriller rekonstruieren Gloger und Mascolo die Bruchpunkte einer Epoche: Der folgenschwere NATO-Gipfel von Bukarest, die Abkommen von Minsk, der Fall Nawalny, der frühe hybride Krieg Putins gegen Deutschland und der Bau von Nord Stream 2.

The Globalist Plan to Collapse Everything is a revealing portrayal of the dangers of the globalist agenda. Unveiling the eleven key pillars of Western civilization, the book walks through the steps being taken to dismantle them, ending civilization as we know it.

In the 1990s, a vision emerged of a frictionless world of globalization in which the West would become ever richer on the basis of a tech-based service economy, all underpinned by a rules-based liberal international order. It became the basis for the mainstream politics of center-left and right. Philip Pilkington argues that this vision was always delusional and is now dying.

Central bank cooperation during global financial crises has been anything but consistent. While some crises are arrested with extensive cooperation, others are left to spiral. Going beyond explanations based on state power, interests, or resources, Aditi Sahasrabuddhe argues that central bank cooperation—or the lack thereof—often boils down to ties of trust, familiarity, and goodwill between bank leaders. These personal relations influence the likelihood of access to ad hoc, bilateral arrangements with more favorable terms.

GAZA Today: Would You Turn Your Back. Everyone knows what Gaza is. A strip of land in the Middle East, being vociferously fought over. I don't want to get into the Politics of it, but at least a brush with it is unavoidable if you attempt any kind of dialogue or description of the occurrences that are happening there — truly awful. This poem is a short one, and keeps to the suffering of its people, and not delving too much into sides of the Political spectrum.
