RON UNZ—One year ago tomorrow a series of massive underwater explosions destroyed most of the $30 billion Russian-German Nord Stream Pipelines, probably Europe’s most important civilian energy infrastructure. All observers soon agreed that the blasts had been deliberate, likely constituting the greatest case of industrial terrorism in world history and an obvious act of war against Germany, NATO’s leading European member. And then in lock-step, nearly all Western media outlets declared that the Russians had destroyed their own pipelines, an action further demonstrating the dangerous insanity of President Vladimir Putin, our diabolical Moscow adversary. Only a handful of voices on the dissident fringe suggested otherwise.

S.L. KANTHAN—By the way, the word “allies” is just a euphemism for vassals. Modern wars are hybrid in nature — they include hot wars, economic wars, tech wars, trade wars, propaganda wars, spy wars, political wars and so on. The US wages hybrid wars on its vassals to make sure that the vassals don’t collude or start making independent decisions. Thus, the US spies on its European allies, stages soft coups in allied countries, wrecks their economies when they get too strong [vide Germany, currently in economic implosion due to Nordstream sabotage by the US], and even forces them into proxy wars. This is standard procedure, and India is now getting a taste of it.

RON UNZ—This is shocking information that perhaps only a handful of Americans know anything about. The recent dust-up with Elon Musk has put the ADL’s methods under a microscope particularly their alleged role in censoring people on the Internet. So, my question to you is this: What is the ADL? Is it really a civil rights organization that “combats extremism and antisemitism” or is it something else altogether?

Sabby Sabs focuses on the decadence of American culture, as measured by the decline of anti-establishment comedians. All mainstream comedians are now sellouts, affirm Sabby, Chris Hedges, and Lee Camp. The days of George Carlin are gone. Corporate criticism is now rarely if ever seen on the MSM, and even on social media, few voices speak against the liberal fascist regime.
