Frankfurt (Germany) | 20 May 2013Are there too many coincidences in the Boston Bombings official narrative to call them coincidences? Behind each one lurks the shadow of Graham Fuller—a top CIA strategist who famously advocated co-opting Islamic extremists to further advance the US agenda in Central Asia—and his cozy ties with the accused brothers’ uncle. William Engdahl delves into the ramifications of the Fuller-Tsarni connection, the most compelling of the Boston smoking guns, and the threatening can of worms it has opened up.
New York (United States) | 7 May 2013Hard right Republican Senator John McCain and Progressive Caucus co-chair Rep. Keith Ellison, a Minnesota state Democratic Party affiliate, both support no-fly zones over Syria.

Damascus (Syria) | 28 April 2013Two weeks after the attacks in Boston, the U.S. authorities continue to release piecemeal the clues they claim to have found. Everything revolves around the Chechen origin of the "guilty" parties and the conclusions to be drawn. Meanwhile, Internet users and the Russian press are depicting a different story, one in which the main "culprit" is a CIA agent.

However, the minutes of the judiciary hearings (...)
Damascus (Syria) | 25 April 2013What has Syria got to do with the Boston bombing? Nothing at first glance, yet this event - and the clamor it has sparked - provides the key explanation for the Kerry-Lavrov plan deadlock. If nothing is happening in Syria, it is because Washington and Moscow have run into unforeseen difficulties, including the Chechen imbroglio.

15 March 2013At a time when much of the world is looking with a mix of envy and excitement at the recent boom in USA unconventional gas from shale rock, when countries from China to Poland to France to the UK are beginning to launch their own ventures into unconventional shale gas extraction, hoping it is the cure for their energy woes, the US shale boom is revealing itself to have been a gigantic hyped confidence bubble that is already beginning to deflate. Carpe diem!
Damascus (Syria) | 3 March 2013New Secretary of State John Kerry’s first contacts were not devoted to the Asia pivot (transfer of U.S. forces to the Far East) or the partition plan for the Middle East, but to the creation of a NATO economy, without arousing the slightest concern in Europe. However, should it be implemented quickly, this project would solve the economic crisis in the United States at the expense of Europeans.

by
Ali Khamenei
Tehran (Iran) | 16 February 2013The Supreme Leader analyzed the unreasonable behavior of American politicians and the reasonable behavior of the Iranian nation and the Islamic Republic towards the issue of negotiations.

14 February 2013Mr. President, tell us who your C.I.A. Director is and we will tell you who you are!

Thierry Meyssan
Damascus (Syria) | 11 February 2013As she bowed out, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton defended her record in an interview granted to the New York Times . Incidentally, “off the record”, she shared a few secrets with journalists who slipped them into a separate article .

Damascus (Syria) | 4 February 2013Hillary Clinton’s departure was carefully orchestrated to preserve her chances of becoming the Democratic Party’s candidate for the next presidential election. The former first lady still contemplates returning to the White House and all the bets are on for a spectacular duel in 2016 between the two political dynasties, with Jeb Bush (GWB’s elder brother) as the other contestant.
Be that as it may, Clinton’s first headed for the Council on Foreign Relations where she presented her report to (...)

26 January 2013The Emergency Committee for Israel (Emergency Committee for Israel) has stealthily organized a campaign against the appointment of Chuck Hagel as U.S. Secretariat of Defense.
This associatio is a magnet for neo-conservatives who are reluctant to come to terms with AIPAC’s decline and intend to apply new methods of influence. Its members have played a crucial role in Benjamin Netanyahu’s support of the Republican candidate for the U.S. presidential election, Mitt Romney.
