America Is Falling Apart: Our National Priorities Are in Dire Need of Restructuring

“You don’t need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows.”—Bob Dylan

A water main breaks every two minutes somewhere in the U.S., resulting in contaminated drinking supplies and boil water notices.

One out of three bridges in the U.S. needs repair, endangering hundreds of millions of commuters. More than 42,000 bridges across the country, carrying about 167 million vehicles each day, are in disrepair.

It is estimated that 300 million people could face power outages across the United States ...

The Final Chapter for the Axis of Resistance, or the U.S.-Backed Zionist Regime?

I ran and the Axis of Resistance are facing an existential threat. A whole new strategic thinking is needed.

Former British spy chief John Sawers thinks that the Axis of Resistance is facing its final chapter as Israel takes on its regional foes with devastating lethal force – and seeming impunity.

Writing an opinion article in the Financial Times this week, the former director of Britain’s foreign intelligence agency, MI6, relished the view that Israel is on a winning roll against Hezbollah, Ham...

America’s Unconditional Support for Israel: A Flawed Policy

Such were the words of the controversial, and at times provocative, German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, who warned that in fighting evil one risks becoming the very evil he is fighting. This is something the United States of America stands accused of for its unconditional support for the State of Israel, including the latter’s past human rights abuses and the casualties in the Gaza Strip caused by the latter that have reached a genocidal level. As evident, the modern State of Israel’s politi...

Of Tin-Horn Tyrants

Welcome back, boys and girls and non-binaries, to Uncle B’s GeezerMedia 101 seminar! Let’s discuss how we warp minds, create fear and squelch opposition, so our Glorious Message can ring out unsullied to the eagerly awaiting masses!

Our topic today is our Patron Saint Joseph Goebbels, and how we are resurrecting his Perspicuous Principles of Propaganda, advancing our cause and beliefs throughout the world. Can I get an AMEN!

Maybe it’s because I have a degree in mass media, or I worked for years...

Israel’s Ideology of Genocide Must Be Confronted and Stopped

When Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu took the podium at the U.N. General Assembly last week, dozens of governments walked out of the chamber. The global opprobrium of Netanyahu and his government is due to Israel’s depraved violence against its Arab neighbors. Netanyahu purveys a fundamentalist ideology that has turned Israel into the most violent nation in the world.

Israel’s fundamentalist credo holds that Palestinians have no right whatsoever to their own nation. The Israeli Knesse...

Iran Attacked Israel Only After U.S. Rejected Its Moderate Stance

Yesterday a massive barrage of Iranian ballistic missiles hit Israel. It came after months of serious Iranian efforts (vid) to achieve better relations with the U.S. had failed. Israel had managed to sabotage those efforts to the detriment of its U.S. ally.

To understand what has happened – and, more importantly, why this attack was launched today – we need to look back.

On May 20 2024 then President of Iran, Ebrahim Raisi, died in a helicopter accident.

New elections were held in Iran and, to t...

Hamas and Hezbolah Walk Into a Bar….

Recently, Israel killed some more “terrorists.” I guess it was more than usual, but I don’t pay much attention to what’s happening in other countries. I prefer to concentrate on domestic issues, considering how every major politician continues to neglect them. That’s how we became the World’s Wealthiest Banana Republic.

We are told that our government’s favorite little nation recently used pagers and walkie talkies to blow up what Israel claims were “senior leaders” of Hezbolah. Well, what else ...

‘Hate Symbols’ and the Meaning of Liberty

In tyrannical societies, the state uses its monopoly of violence to dictate what citizens are permitted to say, activities they are permitted to engage in, and cultural symbols they are permitted to celebrate or display. Anyone who violates such edicts can be arrested and imprisoned. Given the tendency of states to become increasingly dictatorial and to trample on their citizens’ liberties with impunity, Murray Rothbard argued that the state itself, by its very nature, is a threat to liberty. In...

Global Elites’ Plan for Feudalism 2.0—and How You Can Resist

International Man: There’s little doubt the self-anointed elite are hostile to the middle class, which is on its way to extinction thanks to soaring inflation and taxation.

It seems they would like to implement a kinder and gentler version of feudalism.

What is really going on here, and what is the end game?

Doug Casey: The middle class, the bourgeoisie, emerged with the death of feudalism, the inception of the Renaissance, the Enlightenment, and finally, the Industrial Revolution.

“Middle class...
