Topical current events; Multipolar Pain!
There are two erstwhile ‘summits’ going on.

A few short comments on Empire
For those that spend their weekends having fun learning, instead of having fun in the sun.
We have no reason to misunderstand the empire. Michael Parenti had a very clear description of what empire is, 10 years ago already.

Non-US Dollar trade is now a marketing term
I believe today (December 9th, 2022) we saw somewhat of a coup d’état, a major step towards leaving the US Dollar behind, in a blistering scenario.
1. Xi Jinping’s visit to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) encompassed three separate summits, the first being China’s state visit to Saudi. Two other summits, a China-Gulf summit, and… Continue reading

Oligopoly Unchecked: Michael Hudson interview

Century of Humiliation – Carl Za
Carl is an excellent historian on Chinese History and how it fits into the global sphere. He is interviewed here by Brian Berletic, who was wise enough to let Carl Za speak. This is classical history that even a teenager (I hate history type) would be interested in. It is not your boring history lesson.

Mongolia
Where is this place? I must admit that when I read Pepe’s update from Slavyangrad I could not picture in my mind on a map where we find Mongolia. Here is a map and the borders are distinct – destabilize Mongolia, and that has effect on both Russia and China as it is a landlocked… Continue reading
