there is certainly a western oligarchy. The oligarchy by defintion cannot be a plutocracy due to the fact the majority asset of the elite is debt including being completely compromised by the abandoment of all moral value and judgement.
The most heart rending feature of this moment is to have family and friends that still believe there is some vestige of representative governance in The United States and the West as a whole.
That a super majority will pack their suitcase, walk to the transport hub and willingly board the train to their demise is a long accepted reality. The whole time laboring under the false impression they are free agents.Do any of you truly believe that Trump, Macron, Merz, Zelensky or any of The EU charlatans have their hands of the levers of power? Shame on you be that the case. Has logic and reason been rewarded in your career or was your lust the key to your success?
I guess on the bright side the shadows on the wall of the cave will be lifelike Ai animations replete with majestic machine created scores.
RE: Trump
This guy has got us into war.
This guy is destroying the economy as we speak.
You have a chance now to empower congress with people who will impeach him and if we get enough people in the senate to convict him, that would be the greatest legacy one could imagine for a man who has disrespected the American people, the American nation in the constitution of the United States.
It’s not just his impeachment but his conviction so that he goes down as the first man removed from office because he was unfit to hold office.
Trump’s Iran war runs on bought loyalty — and, Alex Krainer argues, the people who were paid to carry it are starting to leave. The man running it, the enablers behind him, and the jets that never took off.
Financial analyst and former hedge fund manager Alex Krainer returns to Transition Protocol to explain a war that made no sense on any cost–benefit sheet — and who is actually carrying it out.
— The man running the war: the host on Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and the Isfahan mission; Krainer: “they can recognize a hollow suit… they’re being led by a lunatic.” (44:10)
— The enablers: “hollow men and women… no moral compass” in think tanks, media, the military and diplomacy — there for “pure opportunism”. (16:07)
— Turning coats: why paid loyalty lasts only while the war is winning. (20:48)
— Silver or lead: PM Shehbaz Sharif’s 29 September meetings in London with JPMorgan, Citi and Rothschild & Co — and Krainer’s reading of what was on the table. (26:13)
— The jets that never took off: the host’s sources in Pakistan’s military establishment on the NYT report. Pakistan’s information ministry has called that report “fake and fabricated.” (38:35)
Sourcing note: Krainer’s views are his analysis. The account of King Abdulaziz Air Base is the host’s own reporting. Iran says the Isfahan operation was a failed attempt to seize nuclear material; Washington describes it as a rescue of a downed F-15 crew member. Larry Ellison’s “best behavior” remark was made at Oracle’s analyst meeting in September 2024.#Hegseth #TrumpIranWar #AlexKrainer #Pakistan #Yemen #Iran #Geopolitics #TransitionProtocol
Saudi Arabia restarted its war with Yemen — and the Houthis answered at its oil heart, from Abqaiq to the pipeline to Yanbu. Now the money that bought its allies is running out, and Pakistan and Turkey won’t fight.
Military and intelligence analyst Larry Johnson joins host Zulfiqar Ali to trace the chain, link by link: the strike that lit the fuse, the damage, the money, the allies, the isolation of Mohammed bin Salman — and the one power that wins.
— 03:13 The oil heart: Abqaiq, the East–West pipeline and the pumping stations, per Larry Johnson.
— 13:27 What Pakistani officers saw in the Saudi–CENTCOM meeting, triple-confirmed by our host’s sources.
— 25:09 Why China, not Washington, comes out on top.
What you’ll learn: how the 13 July strike on Sanaa airport restarted a war frozen since 2022 · why the East–West pipeline matters more than ever · why Saudi money no longer buys Pakistani or Turkish firepower · what leverage Riyadh still has over Washington · what a negotiated end would look like.
Sourcing note: The pumping-station count and the Aramco repair timelines are Larry Johnson’s figures and have not been independently confirmed. Pakistani positions are our host’s own reporting; Pakistan’s Ministry of Information called the New York Times report of PAF strikes “fake and fabricated” on 8 October. On 7 October a Turkish official said Turkey would send mainly defensive and technical support. Public reporting describes the 13 July strike as hitting the Sanaa airport runway; the delegation’s plane diverted to Hodeidah#SaudiArabia #Yemen #Houthis #Abqaiq #MBS #Pakistan #China #TransitionProtocol

Violence Erupts As Paradigms Collide

Violence Erupts As Paradigms Collide
Over the recent months, Helga Zepp-LaRouche has pointed out that the world is experiencing a collision between two fundamentally different paradigms—that of the dying imperial order, and that of a polyphonic community of world nations—and the shaking out of such a process is going to get messier before it gets better. Therefore, it shouldn’t be a surprise that chaos is increasingly spreading around the world as a result of such a collision of systems.In Southwest Asia on Oct. 10, Yemen’s Houthis confirmed they had struck the King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, killing 13 and injuring over 300. The airport was struck again on Sunday, as was the King Fahd International Airport in Dammam, and two Aramco facilities—the Shugadam gas facility and the Tanajib oil refinery. Saudi Arabia responded with strikes back against Yemen.
This escalation now adds another trigger to a region already teetering on the verge of spiraling out of control. Saudi Arabia, along with Pakistan, Türkiye, and Egypt, released a statement condemning the Houthi strikes, as have many other governments—including the United States. This further threatens the involvement of Pakistan and Turkiye, which have recently signed the Mecca Defense Pact with Saudi Arabia, pledging that an attack on one is an attack on all. Both countries have been hesitant to join the fighting as Saudi Arabia’s hostilities with the Houthis have heated up, but they will now be pushed to a point of decision. Further, when asked on Oct. 10 if the U.S. was planning to join Saudi Arabia’s campaign against the Houthis, President Trump left the door open, saying, “We may. We’re gonna look at it.”
Given the already bleak outlook for economies around the world and the central role this region has for global trade, these developments can only mean a worsening of the situation.
Meanwhile, apparently out of desperation from the complete failure of his Iran policy, President Trump has caused much fur to fly with regard to the war in Ukraine. After demanding that Ukrainian acting president Volodymyr Zelensky halt strikes on Russian oil infrastructure or “leave office,” reports are now circulating that the U.S. has threatened to cut off intelligence sharing or weapons purchases. Then on Sunday, Trump announced an “energy ceasefire,” which neither side seems to have known about.
Of course, none of these harebrained schemes will resolve the underlying situation—they are merely an expression of the desperation facing the U.S. and the West as their policies hit a brick wall. A similar phenomenon is occurring in Europe today as protesters flood onto the streets, deeply frustrated about the lack of opportunity and the hypocritical stances of their governments.
It would be naïve to think that this phenomenon is merely in response to a single “issue” or location. After all, the arrogant veil of bliss that was erected in the West following the assassinations of John F. Kennedy and other leaders in the 1960s, as epitomized by Francis Fukuyama’s The End of History, Thomas Friedman’s The World is Flat, and EU High Representative Josep Borrell’s depiction of Europe as a “garden” and the rest of the world as a “jungle,” is rapidly coming down. At the same time, the Global Majority, which had been denied access to modern industrial economies for much of the recent decades, is now asserting its right to a new, post-colonial existence.
Therefore, initiatives to give bold leadership in this period of ferment are more urgent than ever. Not to simply put a bandage on it, but to introduce a new security and development architecture that puts humanity on a course to live up to its true potential.
