Alex Krainer explains to Nima in the first 7:30 minutes that Europe is an ancient debt cycle of Class Warfare, since Greek Antiquity, where debts grow, the rich get richer, the poor get poorer and young men have little hope within the system, so their thoughts turn to revolution against the Debt-Oligarchs and the bankers.
The Oligarchic "Leaders" announces an external threat; the barbarians, Huns, Nazis or Russians, perhaps, and turn the economy to a war footing, send the young men off to fight an external enemy, and make war-excuses to the hungry people at home. "We all have to make sacrifices for our brave young men at the front."

All they constantly do is insult and threaten war. NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte said: “If anyone were to miscalculate and think they can get away with an attack on Poland or on any other ally, they will be met with the full force of this fierce alliance. Our reaction will be devastating,” he declared in Warsaw. “This has to be very clear to Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin and anyone else who wants to attack us.”
They know nothing about military strategy, nor are they interested in peace. Instead, they want war and will create a false flag to achieve that goal. Europe is in very dire condition. Cyclical Storm Clouds are gathering. The Eurozone has reached a dramatic inflection point, and the refusal to address the debt consolidation from the outset has put Europe at risk for a severe sovereign debt crisis. But the stakes today are incredibly high. If one member fails, this will disrupt everything, weakening the Eurozone beyond repair. https://www.
Ukraine and Russia accused one another on Wednesday of flouting a truce on energy strikes brokered by the United States, and the European Union said it would not meet conditions set by Russia for a planned ceasefire in the Black Sea.
The United States announced separate agreements with Ukraine and Russia on Tuesday to pause their strikes in the Black Sea and against each other's energy targets, but the rhetoric from Moscow and Kyiv suggested they remained far apart.
Ukraine's president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, said the US side told Kyiv the deals were effective as soon as they were announced. But the Kremlin said the Black Sea agreement would not enter force until a sanctioned Russian state bank was reconnected to the international payment system. Europe said that would not happen until a Russian withdrawal from Ukraine. https://english.aawsat.com/

European countries are looking for alternatives to sending troops to ensure Ukraine's security if a peace deal is reached, Reuters reports , citing diplomatic sources.

US Government is a Big Money Laundering Operation – John Rubino
Moody’s issues warning on US finances: American fiscal strength is on course for continued multi-year decline, the rating agency has said https://swentr.site/business/
The U.S. Air Force has deployed at least seven B-2 strategic bombers to the Indian Ocean island of Diego Garcia, with satellite imagery showing that at least three C-17 cargo planes and 10 aerial refuelling tankers arrived.... The remote British-controlled island in the Indian Ocean positions the aircraft to generate sorties at higher rates against targets in either Yemen or Iran... B-2s were previously used to strike Yemeni targets on October 17, when the aircraft were used to launch large scale strikes against five targets using bunker-buster bombs. Then U.S. Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin referred to the attack as "a unique demonstration of the United States' ability to target facilities that our adversaries seek to keep out of reach, no matter how deeply buried underground, hardened or fortified.” https://
The Strategic Logic: Start in Yemen, End in Tehran
The logic is chillingly linear. U.S. and Israeli planners appear to be working through Iran’s allies one by one, strategically neutralising their capacities to retaliate before taking direct aim at Tehran. Yemen, with its missile and drone capabilities, represents a significant node in the so-called “Axis of Resistance” led by Iran. By degrading Houthi capabilities now, the U.S. and Israel believe they could remove a key threat to Red Sea navigation and, more importantly, secure their southern flank in anticipation of a potential wider conflict. https://ejmagnier.com/2025/

All of this history and theory came into sharp focus in the past two weeks when the feds arrested a Syrian graduate student in his student housing at Columbia University in New York City and shipped him to an immigration jail in Louisiana. He is married to a native-born American, they are expecting a child in April, and he is a permanent resident alien.
Last week, the federal government arrested a Lebanese physician at Logan Airport in Boston. She is a professor of medicine at Brown University, and she, too, is a permanent resident alien.
The student was charged with immigration violations. The physician was summarily deported to Paris and then to her native Lebanon.
The charging documents filed against the student allege no crime or personal misbehavior, point to no statutory violations, and offer no evidence of the student’s danger to persons or property or the government. The papers claim that Secretary of State Marco Rubio believes that this student’s presence on the Columbia campus -- given his outspoken support for a Palestinian state, the existence of which has been the public policy of the U.S. for generations -- is a material impediment to the execution of American foreign policy.
There are no charging papers filed against the physician, but the government leaked that when federal agents seized her mobile phone, they determined that she had been at the funeral of Hassan Nasrallah, the recently murdered head of Hezbollah. She was there along with more than one million others. When asked about this, according to the government leakers, she stated that she followed Nasrallah’s religious teachings but not his political ones.
While the physician was confined at Logan, her attorneys obtained an order from a federal judge prohibiting her deportation until a hearing could be held before him. The government ignored the order.
These two arrests implicate numerous constitutionally guaranteed rights, which are generally taken for granted here.
The first is the freedom of speech. We know from the writings of James Madison -- who authored the Bill of Rights -- that the Founders regarded the freedom of speech as a personal individual natural right. It is also, of course, expressly protected from government interference and reprisal in the First Amendment. The courts have ruled that it protects all persons -- no matter their immigration status -- who may think as they wish, say what they think, publish what they say, worship or not and associate with whomever they choose.
If the government can punish the speech it or its friends and benefactors hate and fear, then the First Amendment is useless and democracy is a sham.
Also implicated in these arrests is freedom of religion and assembly. Just as the student can make any public political statement he wishes -- no matter how offensive or provocative it may be to his immediate or a distant audience -- the physician can attend any funeral she wishes, can associate with any mourners of her choosing, can embrace any religion and can follow any preacher.
The whole purpose of the First Amendment is to keep the government out of the business of speech, religion and assembly. Without government fidelity to it, America is no longer a democracy but rather some form of conformist secular theocracy that rejects the basic values protected by the Constitution -- and changes with every election.
Also implicated by these arrests is due process, guaranteed to all persons by the Fifth Amendment. At its rudimentary base, due process requires a fair hearing before a neutral arbiter before the government may interfere with life, liberty or property -- and at which the government must prove personal fault.
In the case of the physician, the feds shipped her to Paris before the hearing could be held. In the case of the Columbia student, the feds shipped him to Louisiana, in defiance of the constitutional requirement that all persons be tried in the judicial district -- in this case, New York City -- in which the facts in their case took place.
What’s going on here?
In the government’s zealous enforcement of the nation’s immigration laws, it has become lawless. Every person who works for the government has taken an oath of fidelity to the Constitution. It is obvious that the feds do not take their oaths seriously. It is also obvious that the feds are breaking the laws we have hired them to enforce.
When government becomes the lawbreaker, it becomes a law unto itself -- and human freedom is trampled by brute force. https://judgenap.substack.

Gilbert Doctorow, NATO is doomed. Will the EU Institutions implode soon afterwards?
For her part, von der Leyen was foisted onto the European Commission as president where during Covid her proclivity for concluding unauthorized and deeply flawed procurement deals raised a scandal there which it took all of her political savvy to contain.
Seeing around her the utter cowardice of officials in the Commission and in the Parliament, von der Leyen gradually seized power that has exceeded by far what the European constitution allows. And she has been using that power to turn the European Union from a peace project into a war project. In recent months that has expressed itself in plans to consolidate all European military procurement in Brussels under her control and in giving utmost support to the wildly unrealistic plans of the Zelensky regime to defeat Russia militarily and to recover its 1992 borders as well as compensation for war damages... ..In the coming showdown between the United States and the European Union over the partial lifting of sanctions NOW to enable implementation of the agreement on peaceful navigation in the Black Sea as a 30-day partial cease-fire, the USA holds all the cards and the EU holds none. The only outcome if Brussels persists will be the de facto withdrawal of the USA from NATO, leaving a disarmed Europe to pursue the conflict with Russia that it is provoking entirely on its own. https://gilbertdoctorow.com/

Gilbert Doctorow, ‘Judging Freedom’ edition of 27 March: Kremlin’s View of Trump Administration Foibles
Judge Napolitano was very keen to explore how the Europeans have reacted to the scandal in Washington over the leak of sensitive chat texts about the bombing of the Houthis in Yemen to the editor of The Atlantic magazine. As I remarked, the European media are entirely aligned with the Democratic-leaning media in the USA, using this incident to attack the Trump administration for amateurism that has compromised U.S. security. The most they will say is that this puts in question the wisdom of sharing intelligence with Washington.
As for the Russians, their first reaction was to consider the leak an act of sabotage by lower-level officials in the intelligence agencies. Looked at more broadly, the Kremlin now has trust in the sincerity of Donald Trump’s efforts to end the war in Ukraine essentially on Russian terms. They worry whether Trump will be able to overcome his domestic and European opponents and succeed in bringing peace. https://gilbertdoctorow.com/Doctorow:

We have created this class of people who are effectively grifters . . . because they don’t do anything worthwhile at all. Do you think that think-tanks produce anything of value, or lobbyists or Washington law firms or regulators? The regulator is basically on a long job interview for the company you are regulating.

..“We have hit the death spiral point for the dollar and the other big fiat currencies, which means the cost to maintain this debt starts to spiral out of control and people lose faith in the currency or the currency collapses or you have a currency reset.

Rubino says, “Everybody who runs the numbers says gold has to be $10,000 per ounce at a minimum and maybe much higher.

MK Bhadrakumar lives safely in India, so he can be confident: Talk of US-Iran war is all a load of baloney
..There are no takers among the regional states for a military conflagration in the Gulf region. The old US-led anti-Iran front has unravelled following the shift in the Iranian and Saudi policies towards reconciliation and amity and the display of strategic autonomy by even those countries who still remain close allies of the US (in particular, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar.)... Qatar’s Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani drew an apocalyptic scenario that his country and the Persian Gulf Arab states will run out of water within three days if Iran’s nuclear facilities are targeted by the US or Israel! Does that occur to anyone?
The big question is, what are the intentions of the Trump administration. An underlying assumption here is that President Donald Trump is under obligation to the Jewish-Israeli lobby who funded his election campaign to be supportive of Netanyahu all the way through thick and thin. This assumption is untested yet and may never be, perhaps, given Trump’s complex personality as a deal maker.....In an interview with Tucker Carlson last week, Trump’s Middle East special envoy Steve Witkoff underscored that regional stabilisation in West Asia demands addressing Iran. In his words, “I would say the goal begins with how do we deal with Iran? That’s the biggie. So the first is nuclear… If they were to have a bomb that would create North Korea in the GCC, we cannot have that… we can never allow someone to have a nuclear weapon and have outsized influence. That doesn’t work. So if we can solve for that, which I’m hopeful that we can."
“The next thing we need to deal with Iran is they’re being a benefactor of these proxy armies because we’ve proven that … they’re not really an existential risk… But if we can get these terrorist organisations eliminated as risks. Not existential, but still risks. They’re destabilising risks. Then we’ll normalise everywhere. I think Lebanon could normalise with Israel, literally normalise, meaning a peace treaty with the two countries. That’s really possible"...
..“Imagine if Lebanon normalises, Syria normalises, and the Saudis sign a normalisation treaty with Israel because there’s a peace in Gaza. They must have that as a — without question — as a prerequisite. That’s a condition precedent to Saudi normalising. But now you’d begin to have a GCC that all work together. I mean, that would be, it would be epic.”“The next thing we need to deal with Iran is they’re being a benefactor of these proxy armies because we’ve proven that … they’re not really an existential risk… But if we can get these terrorist organisations eliminated as risks. Not existential, but still risks. They’re destabilising risks. Then we’ll normalise everywhere.

Does this ‘big picture’ envisage the destruction of Iran as a prerequisite? Not even remotely. And if anyone should know what he is talking about, it is Witkoff.
Later, towards the end of the interview, Carlson drew out Witkoff specifically with regard to Trump’s recent communication addressed to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei...
..“The Iranians have reached back out, and I’m not at liberty to talk about specifics, but clearly, through back channels, through multiple countries and multiple conduits, they’ve reached back out."
“I think that it has a real possibility of being solved diplomatically, not because I’ve talked to anybody in Iran, but just because I think logically it makes sense that it ought to be solved diplomatically. It should be."
“I think the President has acknowledged that he’s open to an opportunity to clean it all up with Iran, where they come back to the world and be a great nation once again and not have to be sanctioned and being able to grow their economy." ...
..“And I’m certainly hopeful for it. I think anything can be solved with dialogue by clearing up misconception and miscommunication and disconnects between people… And the president is a president who doesn’t want to go to war, and he’ll use military action to stop a war … In this particular case, hopefully it won’t be necessary. Hopefully, we can do it at the negotiating table…”..“The Iranians have reached back out, and I’m not at liberty to talk about specifics, but clearly, through back channels, through multiple countries and multiple conduits, they’ve reached back out."

A report by the United Nations has found that Israel uses rape and torture against against men, women and children as weapons of war; the intent being not just to humiliate and torment the victims, but to instil fear in the wider civilian population and drive them from their land. In other words, these are not just individual crimes against humanity but part of a psychological warfare effort against every Palestinian person.

As Palestinian prisoners at Sde Teiman prison experienced constant Israeli abuse, they were transferred to Ofer and Anatot prisons, which turned out to be worse.
Under pressure from Israel’s top court to improve conditions at a facility notorious for mistreating Palestinians seized in Gaza, the military transferred hundreds of detainees to newly opened camps.
But abuses at these camps were just as bad, according to Israeli human rights organisations that interviewed dozens of current and former detainees and are now asking the same court to force the military to fix the problem once and for all.
What the detainees’ testimonies show, rights groups say, is that instead of correcting abuses against Palestinians held without charge or trial—including beatings, excessive handcuffing, and poor diet and health care—Israel’s military just shifted where they take place. https://trt.global/world/

Judge Andrew Napolitano, Perilous Times for Personal Liberty
Thomas Jefferson argued that in the long march of history, personal liberty shrinks and state power grows. He famously believed that only a revolution can bring about a proper reset.All of this history and theory came into sharp focus in the past two weeks when the feds arrested a Syrian graduate student in his student housing at Columbia University in New York City and shipped him to an immigration jail in Louisiana.

The courts have ruled that it protects all persons -- no matter their immigration status -- who may think as they wish, say what they think, publish what they say, worship or not and associate with whomever they choose.
If the government can punish the speech it or its friends and benefactors hate and fear, then the First Amendment is useless and democracy is a sham.
Also implicated in these arrests is freedom of religion and assembly. Just as the student can make any public political statement he wishes -- no matter how offensive or provocative it may be to his immediate or a distant audience -- the physician can attend any funeral she wishes, can associate with any mourners of her choosing, can embrace any religion and can follow any preacher.
The whole purpose of the First Amendment is to keep the government out of the business of speech, religion and assembly. Without government fidelity to it, America is no longer a democracy but rather some form of conformist secular theocracy that rejects the basic values protected by the Constitution -- and changes with every election.
Also implicated by these arrests is due process, guaranteed to all persons by the Fifth Amendment. At its rudimentary base, due process requires a fair hearing before a neutral arbiter before the government may interfere with life, liberty or property -- and at which the government must prove personal fault.
In the case of the physician, the feds shipped her to Paris before the hearing could be held. In the case of the Columbia student, the feds shipped him to Louisiana, in defiance of the constitutional requirement that all persons be tried in the judicial district -- in this case, New York City -- in which the facts in their case took place.
What’s going on here?
In the government’s zealous enforcement of the nation’s immigration laws, it has become lawless. Every person who works for the government has taken an oath of fidelity to the Constitution. It is obvious that the feds do not take their oaths seriously. It is also obvious that the feds are breaking the laws we have hired them to enforce.
When government becomes the lawbreaker, it becomes a law unto itself -- and human freedom is trampled by brute force. https://judgenap.substack.

The mounting crisis was sparked by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's dismissing Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar. "It’s true that there are many security challenges from abroad, but Israel’s security is at risk because of the internal division," Gantz said at the start of the week.
There are moves to also dismiss Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara by Netanyahu after a 'no confidence' vote by the cabinet. This has outraged opposition parties and much of the population.

Escalating an Unwinnable War
President Donald Trump appears set to repeat one of the worst mistakes of his first administration: fighting an unwinnable war in Yemen. This time, it could be far worse as Trump has sent two aircraft carrier strike groups to the Red Sea, meaning Americans will be doing the fighting, not the Saudis.
While the Yemeni people will bear most of the suffering from Trump’s escalation, the needless war will further bleed the American treasury and deplete our arms depots.
If there is one thing that Americans should have learned about Yemen over the past decade is that there are no easy solutions. In 2015, Saudi Arabia announced it was going to conduct a swift regime change in Sanaa to remove the Houthis – Ansar Allah – from power.
As Scott Horton explains in the following excerpt from his book Enough Already: Time to End the War on Terrorism, the war in Yemen was an utter disaster that was completely avoidable. Once again, Washington is dragging the American empire into another entirely avoidable war in the Middle East. https://original.antiwar.com/scott/2025/03/25/escalating-an-unwinnable-war/

Houthi media said late Wednesday that new US strikes had hit the militia-held capital Sanaa, after earlier reporting 19 American raids elsewhere in Yemen.
“A series of strikes by the US aggression have hit the south and north of the capital,” the Al-Masirah channel said, without providing further details.
The station had earlier reported 17 raids by the United States “on the Saada governorate,” on top of two more on Amran.
The Houthi news agency, Saba, said “the American aggression targeted the Oncology Hospital building in Saada.”
The hospital, which Houthi media said was under construction, was also hit last week. https://www.arabnews.com/node/2594871/middle-east

Appeals Court Halts Judge's Order Requiring Musk To Hand Over DOGE Records
A federal appeals court has temporarily blocked a discovery order from U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan that would have required Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to turn over documents and respond to written questions about their role in advising cuts in certain parts of the federal government... The appeals court ruled that Musk and DOGE had “satisfied the stringent requirements for a stay” and showed that they are likely to prevail in their claim that the lower court must resolve their motion to dismiss before allowing discovery to proceed. https://www.zerohedge.com/political/appeals-court-halts-judges-order-requiring-musk-hand-over-doge-records

..In the interview, he draws on this background to voice deep concern over rising cancer cases, especially among younger people – something he describes as a “non-infectious pandemic” of cancer. He tells Carlson that in 50 years of medical practice, it was extraordinarily rare to see cancers like pancreatic tumors in children or young adults, yet recently such cases are appearing. For instance, Soon-Shiong was alarmed by seeing a 13-year-old with metastatic pancreatic cancer, a scenario virtually unheard of in his prior experience.
"I never saw pancreatic cancer in children... the greatest surprise to me was a 13-year-old with metastatic pancreatic cancer," Soon-Shiong told Carlson, adding that he's seen examples of very young patients (even children under 11 with colon cancer) and unusual surges in aggressive diseases like ovarian cancer in women in their 30s. These personal observations of more frequent, aggressive cancers in youth led him to probe what might have changed in recent years...According Soon-Shiong, the COVID era is the obvious change - and suggests that both the SARS-CoV-2 virus infection and the widespread vaccination campaigns could be key drivers behind this cancer spike. He emphasizes the massive scale of human exposure to the virus and its spike protein (via infection or vaccination).
"I don't know how to say that without saying it. It scares the pants off me because I think what we may be, I don' think it's virus versus man now, this is existential. I think when I talk about the largest non-infectious pandemic that we're afraid of, this is it." https://www.zerohedge.com/medical/existential-billionaire-cancer-researcher-says-covid-vaccine-likely-causing-surge
