How does a "ragtag" opposition manage to smuggle 50,000 Starlink terminals into a heavily sanctioned fortress? The recent chaos in Tehran was not a genuine uprising but a US-Israeli orchestrated regime change operation. Its failure means a whole lot for US hegemony in the region.To deconstruct this fog of war, I sat down with investigative journalist and award-winning author Hugh Miles. As the founder of ArabDigest.org, Hugh has been tracking the pulse of the Middle East for decades, and his latest analysis offers a piercing look at how Tehran survived the onslaught and what this historic failure signals for the collapsing Zionist project.Links:Article without paywall: https://arabdigest.org/sample-newslet...ArabDigest article: https://arabdigest.org/arab-digest-ne...Neutrality Studies Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@neutralitystudies

35 years ago, Francis Fukuyama declared in „the end of history“ that the contest of ideologies was over. Liberal-capitalist democratic systems had won and would be the global standard for the next Millennia. But is this really working out? Here to help with this question is Dr. William I. Robinson, Professor of Sociology at the University of California-Santa Barbara, and the author of „Epochal Crisis: The Exhaustion of Global Capitalism“.

This one is wild. Trump is (ab)using a UN Security Council Resolution that was meant to structure some form of post-Genozide Gaza to form his very own extraterritorial international organisation with which he will most likely do investments around the globe. Peace-Building without peace. Trumpian to the core.Neutrality Studies Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@neutralitystudies

Many of you may know that the EU has begun persecuting its own citizens and legal residents with foreign policy measures in the form of putting them on the Russia-Sanctions list, like my compatriots, Jacques Baud and Nathalie Yamb. This extra-legal way of cracking down on people is what I’ll discuss today with one of Germany’s most outspoken legal experts. I’ve got with me Dr. Hans-Georg Maassen, a German lawyer and former top intelligence official, who served as President of Germany's domestic intelligence agency (BfV) from 2012 to 2018.Dr. Maassen's Homepage: https://hgmaassen.com

The chaos of the West is not random. It's the outcome of decades of planning and the emergence of a new class of rulers, the securitocrats, the people who subsume all of society under the idea of "security". Nel Bonilla is a researcher and substack author, analysing the structure of the social forces that the new elites in Europe and the USA have unleashed.
