by Greg Reese

The United Nations emblem uses a projection map which is centered on the North Pole. This projection was chosen in 1945 when the UN was founded and the Arctic was strategically irrelevant. Today it has become the world’s most contested zone. The center of the UN’s map is precisely the terrain that every major power is now scrambling for…

How Iran Defeated Israel

by Kit Klarenberg

A stunning investigative report by Hebrew-language outlet Ynet has laid bare the embarrassing cataclysm not only of the US-Israeli war on Iran, but the Zionist entity’s effort throughout to end the Islamic Republic via covert and overt military and intelligence operations. Violent Mossad-orchestrated protests, Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei’s murder, and a Kurdish invasion were intended to produce regime change and “total victory” over Tehran. Yet, as Ynet concludes: “what started as a far-reaching Israeli move, rich in imagination, final in its solution, ends in heartache…

The creation of money by central banks is not what you have been led to believe.

As the Bank of England has confirmed, money is created when a loan is signed, and this system funnels wealth upwards to the bankers while keeping the masses in debt…

A Terrain Study for the Battle of the Strait of Hormuz

If it ever goes fully kinetic. Maps. charts, photos and analysis

by Matt Bracken

After following the latest news from both sides, and listening to this morning’s Pentagon brief, it’s becoming clear to me that the new American “safe passage guidance” plan is to steer shipping through the inshore southern “local traffic” channel near Oman. Jazirat Salamah is the northernmost outcropping of Omani Territory, and guards this inshore shipping channel…


by Unbekoming

The True Believer: Thoughts on the Nature of Mass Movements, first published in 1951, is one of the strangest and most enduring works of twentieth-century political thought. Strange because of who wrote it — a self-educated longshoreman with no university degree, no academic post, no institutional sponsor — and enduring because, more than seventy years after it appeared, no one has yet written a better short book on why ordinary people throw themselves into religious revivals, nationalist crusades and political revolutions with a willingness to die that defies every assumption of self-interest. Eisenhower kept it on his desk and recommended it publicly. It has never gone out of print. Each new generation rediscovers it during whatever upheaval happens to be theirs, and finds the old longshoreman waiting with most of the answers already worked out…


Aside From Funding Hate, SPLC Helped to Corrupt Education & Brainwash Children

As Americans react to the shocking federal indictment of the Southern Poverty Law Center and its glaring hypocrisy, its vast and harmful influence over U.S. education also demands serious scrutiny.

by Alex Newman

While the nation digests the bombshell federal indictment handed down against the Southern Poverty Law Center on April 21, 2026, most Americans are rightly focused on the hypocrisy. But the SPLC’s giant and malign influence in U.S. “education” should be under the microscope, too…


The Dementia Myth

The diagnosis, treatment and reporting of dementia is a massive and previously unrecognised scandal.

by Vernon Coleman

Dr Vernon Coleman
The diagnosis, treatment and reporting of dementia is a massive and previously unrecognised scandal. The staggering fact is that most cases of dementia could probably be cured in a week or two – maybe a little longer with some patients. Anyone who says otherwise is either woefully misinformed or a drug company mouthpiece…

Iranian airstrikes have damaged or destroyed at least 228 structures or pieces of equipment at U.S. military sites across the Middle East since the war began, hitting hangars, barracks, fuel depots, aircraft and key radar, communications and air defense equipment, according to a Washington Post analysis of satellite imagery. The amount of destruction is far larger than what has been publicly acknowledged by the U.S. government or previously reported…
