«За время моего путешествия длиной более 20 000 километров я увидел испуганную, разделенную планету».
Santiago (21st Century Wire) -- Imagine that you are in Hong Kong, in a city where “you are actually not supposed to be”, in the first place. You are ready to go home, to South America. But just two days before your departure, via Seoul and Amsterdam, your first Sky Team carrier, Korean Air, unceremoniously decides to cancel all flights from the
Мухаммед Мурси пытался угодить всем в ужасно разделенном египетском обществе. Но в итоге никто не остался доволен.
Former President of Egypt, Mohamed Morsi, had finished his 15-minute discourse in a courtroom, while being locked inside a sound-proofed cage. He read a poem about his love for Egypt, and then collapsed, and died. His demise sent shock-waves all over Egypt, the region and the Muslim world. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan refused to
Как всегда, я был впечатлен инфраструктурой Израиля, но не тем, кому он служит. Во время апартеида в Южной Африке были построены одни из величайших автомагистралей в мире. Для белых. Другие были вынуждены жить в канаве. Израиль делает то же самое.
In the past, whenever I went to (or more precisely, ‘through’) Israel, it was for some antagonistic purpose: to write about the brutal suppression of the intifada in Gaza or Hebron, to comment on the insanity of the land grab around Bethlehem, or to report from the eerie and de-populated Golan Heights, which Israel occupies against all
Мозговые центры, такие как Центр новой американской безопасности, вступают в наступление, когда Китай начинает свой форум «Пояс и дорога» в Пекине, надеясь предложить миру альтернативу многолетней неоколониалистской политике Запада.
The second Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation is about to open in Beijing. It will take place from 25th to 27th April, 2019. The Chinese President Xi Jinping is expected to deliver the keynote address. It is expected to be an event of tremendous proportions and importance: leaders from 37 countries will participate, including
Если Запад так обеспокоен тем, что китайские и российские граждане хотят водить приличные автомобили и носить элегантную одежду, почему бы им не настаивать на прекращении производства этих предметов в своих целях: во Франции, Италии, Соединенных Штатах ?
I hear this again and again, whenever I speak in the West: What kind of Communism is that, in China? In all big cities, they have Prada and Gucci in every major department store.” Western leftists are obsessed with this topic. They do not even realize how ridiculous, how racist their arguments actually are! China, with some 6,000 years long
Администрация Трампа повторно развертывает старых и роковых воинов времен холодной войны, поднимая их на высокие посты. Те же люди, которые убивали, замышляли и подбадривали убийц. Список читается как каталог «Требуются для геноцида»: Эллиот Абрамс, Майкл Помпео и да: Джон Болтон.
What is the ‘Monroe Doctrine’? In brief, it is a document which defines the entire Western Hemisphere as a ‘backyard’ of the United States. It ‘philosophically’ justifies Washington’s neo-colonialism, and the most barbaric coups it has been triggering, as well as covered and open interventions in the Caribbean, and in Central and South
Что делает ливийские, сирийские и венесуэльские сценарии такими похожими? Почему Запад так хотел атаковать, а затем уничтожить эти три, на первый взгляд, совершенно разные страны? Ответ прост, хотя на Западе его не часто произносят; по крайней мере, не публично.
Yes, the latest research confirms that Venezuela is so rich in natural resources, that it could single-handedly satisfy all global demand for oil, for over 30 years. And it has much more than oil to offer, in its Orinoco basin and in other areas of the country. But it is not all ‘about oil’; actually, far from it. Those who believe that what
