President Trump has often blamed the “deep state” for his political troubles. Trump supporters have created big conspiracies involving the “deep state” to explain why the president places neocons in key positions or fails to fulfill his campaign promises.

*The Trump Doctrine* President Trump characterizes modern great nation-states as rivals more than enemies. Ford, Toyota, Mercedes and Chevrolet are rivals. Chevron, Exxon, Shell and British Petroleum are rivals. That bothers some in the US who would rather attach other labels. I tend to support President Trump's view of things, particularly as it applies to China, Russia, Japan, the EU, etc. Companies can form alliances and so can nations. For far too long, America has not looked after its own affairs in a responsible way. That is changing and America will by default become more pr... more »

Less Than Honourable Men

Owen Gray at Northern Reflections - 16 hours ago
Four British Foreign Secretaries have resigned since Margaret Thatcher became Prime Minister. Three of them, William Keegan writes, were honourable men: [Lord] Carrington resigned over the way the Foreign Office had mishandled the prelude to the invasion of the Falklands by Argentina in 1982 by sending misleading signals about our attitude towards retention of those remote islands in the south Atlantic. Sir Geoffrey Howe resigned in 1989 on the not unreasonable grounds that Thatcher’s attitude to – guess what – Europe had rendered his job impossible. Entering into negotiations wa... more »

With Russophobia reaching new levels in the United States, particularly with the New York Magazine's piece on Donald Trump and his position as an alleged agent of Vladimir Putin's, a look back in time gives us a bit of a sense of why Russia would have had every right to interfere in America's political theatre, if indeed they did.

Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates Have a Disastrous Yemen Strategy

Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates’s deepening intervention in Yemen is the triumph of hope over experience. Riyadh’s latest campaign in Yemen began in 2015 to topple the then-triumphant Houthi rebels, whom Saudi leaders considered too close to Iran. Rather than dissuading their good buddies in Riyadh from this dangerous course, the UAE too has plunged into the morass, also hoping to set back Iran. Unlike in Egypt, where the two *helped bring about a coup* that put President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi in power, the result has been a disaster. This is true not only for Yemen, whose... more »

DownWithTyranny at DownWithTyranny! - 1 day ago
We all live in the same country but we have different news sources-- and it's increasingly divided by party. Here's a good example.

Today, on Australia's NSW Central Coast, some Ourimbah residents had their water pipes frozen due to sub zero (ºC) temperatures. I guess we were saved from freezing because we are a few metres above the valley. In fact, at our gate, on next door's property, there is a 30 metre communications tower. Our residence is above that. However, it was so cold that I fired up our wood-burning fire. Around midday, I went out and sat on a garden bench which was in full sun and felt the warmth warming my body. Beautif... more »
