Integrity Has Vanished From The West
Paul Craig Roberts
Among Western political leaders there is not an ounce of integrity or morality. The Western print and TV media is dishonest and corrupt beyond repair. Yet the Russian government persists in its fantasy of “working with Russia’s Western partners.” The only way Russia can work with crooks is to become a crook. Is that what the Russian government wants?
Lies Can Lead To War
Paul Craig Roberts
Notice that the governments of the US, UK, France, and Germany did not require any evidence to decide that the Russian government used military-grade nerve gas to attack two people on an English park bench and a UK policeman. It makes no sense. There is no Russian motive. http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/48963.htm
Will Russia Wake Up?
Paul Craig Roberts
Russians are having a difficult time comprehending their Western enemy or even understanding that Russia has an enemy that seeks the destruction of Russia.
Ahead of tomorrow's much-anticipated testimony, former FBI Director James Comey has released his prepared remarks.
Comey make no accusations but he does outline how he had concerns with some of President Trump's behavior - although he makes it clear that Trump never ordered him to do anything - specifically the president's intent with requests for "loyalty" and repeated direct outreach to Comey. Speaking through Sessions, Comey asked that Trump's outreach stop as it made him "uncomfortable."
For the past two weeks, Donald Trump has been on a tear, raging at how rigged the US presidential nominating system is. This is not a surprise to our readers: just two weeks ago we posted an article "The Year Americans Found Out Their Elections Are Rigged" which promptly went viral. And, judging by the Reuters/Ipsos poll, more than half of America agrees with Trump that the system U.S. political parties use to pick their candidates for the White House is "rigged" while more than two-thirds want to see the process changed.
