The US presidential election now has its main characters in place as Mitt Romney has vanquished each of his foes. Now the never ending Media speculation takes place; every utterance of candidates is analyzed. President Obama drew first blood when he came out on side of gay marriages at the same time (an amazing coincidence!) that it was learned that Romney had bullied gays when he was at school...

...There are times when India needs to stand up and speak out that the US' regional policies -- toward the Middle East and Central Asia – seriously endanger India's long-term interests. To meekly behave, instead, like a poodle, as the Indian government has done on the Iran sanctions, may not even be the best opportunistic course available.

There is a great deal of truth in the proverb saying “As you sow so you shall reap”. At the moment, we witness the U.S. fall victim to this inescapable law, which, in the realm of history, typically materializes within the cycle of 70 years. In a remotely congenial example, Russia’s Bolsheviks degenerated over the seven decades of their undivided rule into a corrupt elite which ultimately betrayed the Soviet Union in the late 1980ies. The present-day America's patriots, a group planted by the U.S. Administration as a grassroots anticommunist movement, in the long run has morphed into a threat to the elite which authored the project...

...The report contains an important admission that Washington's tactic of propping up overseas opposition groups, inciting unrest, and organizing revolts in other countries is beginning to backfire. The approach is being adopted by the US right who increasingly rely on social media to enlist supporters and deliberately maintain an evasive and loosely structured opposition movement.

The probability is rather high the geopolitical battles around the North Stream will intensify in the near future. The USA acts as the leading instigator. One can expect the Scandinavian and Baltic states, as well as Poland to renew the previous attacks against the project. It’s not excluded the project will join the agenda of the impending top-level meetings: the G8 summit on May 18-19 in the US President’s Camp David country retreat and the NATO summit on May 20-21 in Chicago...

The legal proceedings against Seif al-Islam, the son of Muammar Gaddafi, have developed into an unusual situation, that has had no precedents in the International Criminal Court’s (ICC) history. The matter is that the Court itself is exerting efforts to destroy the case so that the accused would never have to face it...There is ground to believe that some kind of clash between two opposing forces took place inside the Court. One of the forces had never made itself known before…

The recent developments - from the seizure of Iraq and Afghanistan to the rape of Libya and the spill of the Arab Spring - leave no doubt that the world system periphery faces a new round of colonial conquests...NATO is an existing and successfully tested instrument of the new colonization...By all means, Iran's nuclear program is nothing more than a casus belli - even with no trace of interest in nuclear technologies, the country would still be in big trouble. Moscow should, in the meantime, keep in mind that it is destined to be the next target after Tehran...Russia will have to endure plenty of arm-twisting at the upcoming G8 forum in Camp David supposed to coerce it into giving up the support for Syria and Iran and the Eurasian initiatives, as well as to make Moscow subject its tactic nuclear weapons stockpile to deep cuts.

The US Council on Foreign Relations authoritatively projects that in the XXI century the rivalry over Arctic mineral riches will escalate into a new type of a Cold War, which promises to be a conflict profoundly different from the one that marked the XX century's bipolarity epoch. Indeed, it is impossible to overlook the fact that calls for the internationalization of Russia's Northern maritime route emerged as a recurrent foreign-policy theme both in the West and in the East since the dawn of the XXI century.

The United States, which sought to capitalize politically, militarily, and financially from the break-up of the Soviet Union, Yugoslavia, Sudan, and Czechoslovakia and now seeks to reap the benefits from the similar potential fracturing of the Russian Federation, China, Libya, and Iraq, may receive a taste of its own medicine.Across the United States, there are increasing calls for secession from a federal government that is not providing for the common welfare of the people.

On May 6 Greece is to hold snap parliamentary elections against the background of unparalleled social-economic and political crisis... The Greece’s destiny is sad... If people could draw the lessons, the Hellas of today would be a good experience to take into consideration by the countries that today strive to join the European Union and “become rich”. The Brussels bureaucracy sees the EU member countries as corporations to be made bankrupt, split up, swallowed up… Not long ago Greece marked the anniversary of liberation from the yoke of the Ottoman empire and becoming independent in 1821. Is it on the way of losing independence again – this time to nationless Eurocorporation?
