A 'nail on head' assessment of the current state of play from the ever excellent Prof. John Mearsheimer. Enjoy . . .

Well, Trump's family and friends will be disppointed by the opening gap down, currently trading a paltry $5.00 below Friday's close. Assuming no news emerges from official Iranian channels suggesting that a peace deal is being brokered, price will start to rise and the (small) gap will get...

It appears that, once again,Trump has been talking to the imaginary Iranian diplomats in his head and, according to him, a peace deal is all but agreed and will be announced in a day or two. Doubtless, he told family and friends before the markets closed on Friday that he'd be making this...

It's good to know the war is going according to plan for some . . .

Jaw dropping interview with Max Bumenthal of the Greyzone. Be sure to watch to the end where Max outlines how the rights and free speech of U.K. citizens have been completely corroded by our corrupt government and exposes what really happened with the two knife attacks in Golders Green. A bit...

That'll give Trump and Xi Jinping something to talk about next week when they meet next week!

No change. Don't be fooled by Trump's latest ruse to get traffic moving through the Strait of Hormuz (SoH). There are only two possible outcomes that I can see: 1. Traffic starts to move freely again without any intervention from the Iranians. Like that's gonna happen. Not! 2. Any U.S. craft...

Welcome to Oomeen's website Oomeen Basing runs a website for non-scientists that explains the greenhouse effect while challenging the claim that human emissions are driving dangerous global warming. Near the foot of the 'About the Author' page, he writes: "The five years of research and...

The Oil Trade In the good ol' days of trading, an announcement would come out, say for example, non-farm payrolls on the first Friday of the month and, if the numbers were bad, the market either wouldn't move much or it may even rise. "Wtf" shout the newbies on here, perplexed as to why the...

Spot on At', What you say is so blindingly obvious to me (and to you too, presumably!), but it appears we're in a minority in this country and possibly throughout the west. Why aren't any politicians or MSM outlets voicing this eminently sensible and pragmatic view? Given that just about...

"It may be dangerous to be America's enemy, but to be America's friend is fatal". Henry Kissinger

. . . That's why I rely on alternative media, as one gets a much more balanced picture. There are still biased views of course, but one usually knows about the person expressing them and where they're coming from. For example, someone I like is Yanis Varoufakis - the economist and former Greek...

The two week ceasefire is a welcome development for everyone in as much as it postpones Trump's apocolyptic threat to take Iran back to the Stone Ages. But it's just kicking the can down the road and cynics like me will argue that it merely buys time for the Trump administration to formulate a...

Excellent interview with Scott Ritter by Judge Nap' on his Judging Freedom YT channel in which Ritter disects the mission to rescue the second pilot of the downed F15 jet. There's been lots of speculation about this and whether or not there was a botched plan to extract the enriched uranium that...
