David Gosselin discusses Aldous Huxley's 'Brave New World' and 'The Island,' visions of a system of psycho-spiritual manipulation. For elites the real problem has become the Promethean and Judeo-Christian image of man itself, the Classical and religious Western heritage, where the Renaissance idea of man as endowed with a divine creative spark allows him to master knowledge of “fire.” They seek to move from a post-Renaissance Western paradigm towards a new more sustainable Gaia-centric “ecological ethic” and a more efficient system of control.

John Bosnitch gives a wide-ranging discussion on the last days of the empire and new world order. Tyranny is rising in the West as the Military-Industrial-Complex continues to exert its power. He dives into deep politics and tells stories of his history of fighting the oligarchy, his personal interactions with Henry Kissinger and Zbigniew Brzezinski, and who he thinks the controllers are. He is optimistic WW3 can be averted, but the defense industry uses the constant threat of war to keep the money flowing. Russia has bounced back from the brink.

About John Bosnitch
John Bosnitch is the Director of GroundZero D.O.O. a general services company in Belgrade, Serbia, that is developing tourism-related projects in the region. He also heads The InterMedia Center news agency, specializing in reporting on conflict and development in the region of the former Yugoslavia.

Bosnitch is a founding director of the Jasenovac Memorial Center in Belgrade and a board member of the Jasenovac Research Institute in New York City, two organizations specializing in documenting the WWII Croatian Catholico-fascist genocide against Serbs, Jews and Roma (gypsies) that took place within the broader context of the Holocaust.

John Bosnitch spent almost 20 years in Tokyo working for Japanese public radio-television broadcaster NHK World, the English-language versions of the Yomiuri Shimbun newspaper and the Nikkei Weekly business newspaper, as well as The Journal of the American Chamber of Commerce in Japan (ACCJ). He also served as editor of the No. 1 Shimbun, the official publication of the Foreign Correspondents Club of Japan.

After winning the battle to free World Chess Champion Bobby Fischer from a Japanese jail in 2005 and defeating the effort of the George W. Bush Administration to extradite Fischer to the United States, Bosnitch agreed to serve as management consultant to the Serbian Unity Congress in Washington D.C. and also acted as a spokesman of Americans and Canadians of Serbian descent against the unlawful NATO amputation of the Serbian heartland of Kosovo from Serbia.

While studying economics and political science in university, Bosnitch was the longest serving elected student union president in North American university history, and placed 7th in the world debating and oratorical championships. In 1981, while studying surveying engineering, he won the top international prize for cartography.

Nik Stankovic: U.S. Empire Losing Its Grip, China Will Prevail in Tech, War Almost Unavoidable

Nick Corbishley discusses the most important issue of our day: the deployment of digital identity programs which by their own admission can "open up" or "close off" the digital and analog world to individuals. The EU is at the forefront of introducing Digital ID and helping other regions around the world do the same. Brussels insists they will be voluntary yet countries like Greece are already making them mandatory. We're talking about a new social contract in which the public has ever decreasing influence over their own lives. The EU is actively anti-democratic in its very essence, which is how it was designed. Multipolarity is a nice idea, but these governments are much further along the road toward killing cash and launching CBDCs. The U.S. and NATO are positioning in Latin America via countries like Argentina to keep regional powerhouses like Brazil in check. Location will be important for surviving the Digital Dictatorship, however, there is some hope because of the hubris and incompetence of the elite.

Nick Corbishley: Digital Identity Can Close Life Off For Individuals

Hügo Krüger discusses how South Africa and the ANC have stepped on the toes of Washington and the Israeli lobby and may see intervention in the next elections. Allegations have been made that South Africa is receiving financing from Iran and there are indications that Western actors are interested in certain South African resources. He also comments on the wider brewing war in the Middle East, BRICS, energy, and whether technocracy will succeed.

Hügo Krüger: Washington Regime Change in South Africa?

Jobst Landgrebe explains why Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) will NEVER be possible and why Skynet won't become self-aware! We have used up most of the great inventions in the application of physics and there is a limit to progress, we are faced with a slowdown in technological advancement. The human mind is a complex system and CANNOT be mathematically modeled. The singularity is a neo-pagan pseudo-religious concept. Technology has become the god or metaphysics or new religion of today. He discusses the realistic potential of artificial intelligence and automation.
