Tensions between the two superpowers reached Cold War heights during the Ukraine conflict, the director has said
There was a point during the last three years of the Ukraine conflict where Russia and the US were teetering on the edge of nuclear war, according to acclaimed filmmaker Oliver Stone.
Speaking to Russian students at the ‘Knowledge.First’ event in Moscow on Tuesday, Stone spoke out against the US role in the Ukraine conflict, as well as its biased coverage in Western media.
from 21st Century Wire:
This week, it appears that Moscow has rejected a Ukraine “peace deal” – proposed by Donald Trump. Russian negotiators have made it clear to Washington that it is completely inappropriate for the Trump Administration to act as a proxy for Kiev in any serious negotiations.
Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov warned the U.S. that, among other problems, that Trump’s proxy plan did not satisfy the Kremlin’s condition that Ukraine’s current President Volodymyr Zelensky must allow for democratic elections in the country if any such agreement is to have any legitimacy and sustainability going forward.

At 12:35pm this week, major parts of Europe came to a standstill.
Power gone. Trains frozen. Payments offline. Communications… silent.
Spain, Portugal, parts of France—suddenly and without warning—were reminded of something we too often forget: the modern world depends entirely on systems that can fail.
This wasn’t just a blackout. It was a stress test.
And many failed it.
We rely on screens, networks, and digital infrastructure for nearly everything—especially our money. But what happens when those systems stop working? What would you still own?
That’s the question Jan Skoyles unpacks in this week’s GoldCore TV episode.
It’s not about panic—it’s about preparation.

The future of the “Antisemitism Awareness Act” was thrown into jeopardy on Wednesday after Bernie Sanders and Ed Markey together with Rand Paul’s backing introduced a series of amendments to undermine the bill’s aim of outlawing criticism of Jews and Israel.
From Jewish Insider, “Antisemitism Awareness Act’s future in question after committee postpones vote”:
Senators on the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee postponed a final vote on advancing the Antisemitism Awareness Act after approving four amendments that could jeopardize GOP support for the bill and leave its future passage once again in question.

Routh’s defense attorneys are fighting to keep the documents out of his trial
Recently unsealed court documents have revealed that Ryan Routh, the guy who tried to assassinate President Trump at his own golf course, was trying to smuggle Afghans into the US over the southern border.
The documents contain texts sent by Routh to a human smuggler known as “Ramiro” in Mexico, with the Department of Justice alleging that the communications reveal Routh’s involvement in efforts to transport an Afghan family from Amecameca, a city south of Mexico City, to Eagle Pass, Texas.

Dear Readers, as you know my interpretation of the Ukrainian “peace negotiations” is substantially different from that of the official narrative. I decided to ask experts in Russia for an explanation of what the Russian view of the “peace negotiations’ is. Ivan Andrianov, the director of a strategic consulting firm, has obliged me with an answer. Here it is:

Dr. Vernon Coleman takes us on a trip down memory lane. He has republished the transcript for a video released on 2 July 2020. It demonstrates that what has happened from 2020 is not happenstance but according to an orchestrated plan.
Why? Because Dr. Coleman predicted with accuracy what would happen next – he is not a clairvoyant; he simply recognised and understood what was happening.

If you are old enough to remember the Vietnam War or to have studied it in school, this will sound familiar.
The Fake Narrative
The political leadership of the United States, President Lyndon Johnson and Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara, wanted to prosecute the Vietnam War with as limited a force as possible. The “military,” knowing that a large force would be necessary, attempted to build the force through incremental, ever increasing troop requests. Ultimately, the never-ending requests and the growing quagmire disillusioned McNamara.
