Iran from anti-imperialist to imperialist again

by Thierry Meyssan

Damascus (Syria)
Continuing his study of contemporary Iran, Thierry Meyssan shows how Tehran has once again abandoned the anti-imperialist ideal of the 1979 revolution to return to its imperialist policy. This article, like the previous one, presents many unknown elements. It continues with an astonishing hypothesis.

Israel destroys East Beirut with a new weapon

The first Israeli Prime Minister has ordered the destruction of a Hizbollah weapons warehouse in Beirut with a new weapon. The weapon, which is not well known, caused considerable damage in the city, killing more than 100 people, injuring 5,000 and destroying many buildings. This time it will be difficult for Benjamin Netanyahu to deny it.

Imperialist Iran becomes anti-imperialist

Damascus (Syria)

Imperialist Iran becomes anti-imperialist

The history of Iran in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries corresponds neither to the image that Westerners have of it, nor to the image that the official discourse of Iranians gives of it. Historically linked to China and for the past two centuries fascinated by the United States, Iran is struggling between the memory of its imperial past and the liberating dream of Rouhollah Khomeiny. Considering that Shiism is not only a religion, but also a political and military weapon, it hesitates between proclaiming itself the protector of the Shiites or the liberator of the oppressed. We publish a two-part study by Thierry Meyssan on modern (...)

Bipartisan torpedo against withdrawal from Afghanistan

Bipartisan torpedo against withdrawal from Afghanistan

Rome (Italy)
The war in Afghanistan was officially launched to avenge the attacks of September 11, 2001. However, it had been prepared beforehand. For two decades, we have been explaining in these columns that it is the first in a long series of wars aimed at destroying all state structures in the broader Middle East (Rumsfeld/Cebrowski strategy) in order to control the exploitation of natural resources. The war, which was supposed to last two weeks, has been going on for 19 years. It is planned to last as long as possible. Today, personalities linked to the Pentagon are sabotaging President Trump’s partial withdrawal.

NATO at the Helm of European Foreign Policy

NATO at the Helm of European Foreign Policy

Rome (Italy)
NATO Defense Ministers (Lorenzo Guerini, Pd representing Italy) gathered by videoconference on June17/18, and made a series of “decisions to strengthen the Alliance’s deterrence.” However, nobody in Italy talks about it, neither the media (including social media) nor the political world, where an absolute multipartisan silence reigns over all this. Yet these decisions, basically dictated by Washington and signed by Minister Guerini for Italy, not only trace the guidelines of our military (...)

The World Anti-Communist League: the Internationale of Crime

by Thierry Meyssan

Paris (France) | 12 May 2004

The World Anti-Communist League: the Internationale of Crime

The World Anti-Communist League (WACL) was established in Taiwan by Chiang Kai-shek, Reverend Moon and Nazi and Japanese war criminals. It was first used under Nixon to spread counter-insurrectionary measures in South East Asia and Latin America. At that time, seven Heads of State participated at its meetings. It experienced a new lease of life under Reagan, becoming a shared instrument of the US industrial-military matrix and the CIA during the Cold War. It was then in charge of political assassinations and training counter-guerrillas in all conflict zones, including Afghanistan where it was represented by Osama Bin Laden.

Political Islam against China

You are probably aware that you are incompletely informed about what is brewing in Myanmar, and you probably haven’t heard about the military coalition that is preparing to attack that country. And yet, as Thierry Meyssan reveals here, these current events have been in preparation by Riyadh and Washington since 2013. Don’t take sides before you read this article and digest the information.
