  • Trifkovic, Fleming, & Chronicles on Trial at The Hague(15)

    Last week I testified, for the third time in a decade, before the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia at The Hague.

  • Götterdämmerung, Eight Decades Later(9)

    Eighty years ago today, President Paul von Hindenburg appointed Adolf Hitler Germany’s Chancellor. The old Marshal, a Junker through and through, did so unwillingly.

  • The Lessons of In Amenas(4)

    Last week’s attack on the Algerian gas facility at In Amenas was the most elaborate jihadist assault ever conducted on African soil. It was also the most spectacular action of its kind since November 2008, when Islamic terrorists carried out a series of coordinated shooting and bombing attacks in Bombay (aka “Mumbai”), India’s largest city.

  • Is Algeria Next?(13)

    The raid on In Amenas is the most significant military event in North Africa since the end of operations in Libya in October 2011. It was more sophisticated than the attack that killed Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans in Benghazi last September 11. Its implications are more momentous than the escalating insurgency in Mali, to Algeria’s south.

  • An Albanian Travelogue(5)

    Unlike their political bosses, and unlike their relatives in the self-proclaimed Kosovo to the northeast, most ordinary Albanians in Albania are on the whole law-abiding lot, willing to live by the rules of a well-ordered society.

  • The Islamic Republic of Egypt(8)

    The most important foreign event in the final days of 2012 was the ramming through of Egypt’s new, Sharia-based constitution by President Mohamed Morsi and his Muslim Brotherhood allies.

  • The Plight of Christians in Egypt(10)

    The fundamental issue is that in the Muslim world “democratization” means one man-one vote, once, on a one-way street to sharia, and the declining rights for everybody else.

  • Hillary Clinton’s Arrogant Posturing(8)

    Clinton has abused her position in pursuit of a radical ideological outlook formed in the late 1960’s. Her disregard for long-established international norms and mechanisms is as revolutionary on the global scene as Obama’s presidency is domestically.

  • Israeli Settlements: Trifkovic Interview(5)

    Read the transcript from Srdja Trifkovic’s RT Interview, from December 3.

  • Democracy: Reflections on the 2012 JRC Meeting(46)

    The notion of democracy is founded upon the lie that government is not ultimately personal, that there is no Person to whom “We the People” must answer, and that therefore “We the People” can do whatever they please.
