PLUTOCRACY BLOSSOMS AROUND THE WORLD

THE RICH GET RICHER, THE POOR GET POORER, THE MIDDLE CLASS SHRINKS This week, the global "elite" are meeting again in Davos, a posh Swiss ski resort, for their annual shindig about global economy. And about how to get richer yet. In their honor, the anti-poverty charity Oxfam issued a new report which showed that over the past two years, the richest 1% have amassed close to two-thirds of all new wealth created in the world. So Covid and the Ukrainian and other wars have been super-good for the super-wealthy. And the US plutocracy about which this writer has been commenting for nearly 30 years has evolved into a global hegemony of the super fat cats.

PUTIN IS A COCK IN A BARN FULL OF HENS AND CHICKENS 

US PRESIDENTS: FROM FIGHTERS TO ARMCHAIR WARRIORS Once upon a time, great leaders were the best among the fighters. Alexander the Great, Constantine the Great, Peter the Great etc… did not earn that epithets in history by sitting in their palaces and reading speeches which someone else had written. Their command to the troops was: …

“World Peace Through World Trade” – CANCELED! 

Even the Wall Street Journal now concedes defeat - admits globalism is dead Yesterday’s edition of the Wall Street Journal read like an epitaph to the New World Order. Since this was done through charts with just some footnotes, it was a short and effective way to pronounce that a 32-year global experiment is finally DEAD. Alas, the Truth in Media had written such an epitaph 23 years ago when this writer stitched together his proposed flag of the New World Order. Here’s are the lead paragraphs of that article.

SEXISM AND DUPLICITY THE BRITISH WAY

SEXISM AND DUPLICITY THE BRITISH WAY BRAINWASHING AND DUMBING DOWN THE NATION THE AMERICAN WAY DICTATORSHIP OF MINORITIES REVISITED A true democracy means MAJORITY rule. What we have in today’s perverted world of sexism is a dictatorship of minorities. I first wrote about that over 25 years ago in my 1997 Washington Times column  “Dancing ‘Round Golden Calves." Every comment is still valid today, some even more magnified. Here are the opening paragraphs: HOLLYWOOD'S BRAINWASHING The latter - the entertainment industry - deserve a particularly big credit. For their movies, TV programs and series help brainwash hundreds of millions of young people into grown up morons or "mutts," as I predicted in 1997. And this is how that's done... NEW LANGUAGE IN MEDIA: WOKE AND CANCEL "CULTURES" Ever since the 2016 election, you might have noticed increased use of terms "woke" and "cancel" in the mainstream media. As a result, there has been a growing polarization of the American society. The 'woke' crowd (aggressive liberals, reverse racists), egged on by the likes of George Soros and Joe Biden, are have been wreaking havoc on American streets. BLACK SLANG ENTERS MAINSTREAM AMERICA: "WOKE" HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH CULTURE; "CANCEL" HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH CULTURE, EITHER

BANALITY OF DEATH: WHAT’S A FEW THOUSAND LIVES HERE, A FEW THOUSAND THERE…

BANALITY OF DEATH: WHAT’S A FEW THOUSAND LIVES HERE, A FEW THOUSAND THERE… The preceding was an excerpt from daily news for Sep 24. It boggles one’s mind how casually the leaders of Ukraine and Russia talk about the losses of their soldiers. Like they are counting sacks of potatoes. Yet each one of those deaths leaves a grieving family somewhere in those two countries. And inspires thousands more to be against this war. No wonder there is currently an exodus of military service-age people from Russia. Here in Belgrade, for example, one hears now Russian in the streets more than any other foreign language. That has never happened before despite the traditionally friendly relations between the two countries.

BIDEN’S RUSSIA SANCTIONS STARTING TO BITE BACK AT HOME, TOO

COVID BOOSTED BUSINESS OF MAJOR DELIVERY COMPANIES, RUSSIA SANCTIONS HURT THEM From the standpoint of Joe Biden and his bosses, the purpose of Russia sanctions was to hurt Russia first, Europe second - so that the American companies could gain share in the EU markets. Well, sanctions are a two-edged sword, especially in globally integrated economies. The Europeans proved that by going along with Biden and agreeing to commit an economic Hara-kari. The depth of their self-inflicted wounds is yet to be felt and the winter approaches.

A “HIT AND RUN” THE BELGRADE WAY

SERBIAN POLICEMAN: "IT'S MADNESS OVER HERE. THIS IS A CRAZY COUNTRY, THESE ARE CRAZY PEOPLE, THEY DO CRAZY THINGS." AND IT'S ALL CONSIDERED "NORMAL", INCLUDING DOUBLE-PARKING AND BLOCKING OTHER PEOPLE'S CARS Last Thursday, I parked our car on "our" street. Milutina Bojica is "a quiet dead end," as people would describe the 100m-cul de sac. It sticks out like an appendix perpendicular to Palmoticeva St, a well known tree-lined residential street in the heart of Belgrade which runs straight down from the Serbian Parliament. Parking in this congested area is always at a premium but especially now when the vacations are over and the kids are back in school. So we were lucky to find a spot so close to our apartment. We call this "carsko mesto" (an imperial spot). 🙂 Well, three days later it turned into a pauper's spot.

BEAUTIFUL BELGRADE: A CITY ON TWO MIGHTY RIVERS SPARKLES AT NIGHT FROM KALEMEGDAN FORTRESS

It has been years since I walked along the walls of the Kalemegdan fortress. This Turkish structure built on the walls of the Roman city (Singidunum) has always symbolized the indestructibility and resilience of the Serbian nation. After a 500-year darkness under the Turkish sultans and pashas, the Serbs threw off the Ottoman yoke in early 19th century and created their own kingdom. Kalemegdan became a symbol of Serbian victories over three mighty empires – the Ottoman, the Austrian and the German. In 1928, on the 10th anniversary of that victory, a huge monument was unveiled. Dubbed the Victor, the Serbian warrior is holding a hawk in his left hand, symbolizing vigilance and watchful eye pointed toward the former Austrian empire, and a sword in the right hand, ready to defend again his country if necessary.

UTTER DISREGARD FOR BICYCLE RIDERS AND CIVILIANS

UTTER DISREGARD FOR BIKE RIDERS AND PEDESTRIANS Let's sum it up. In Belgrade, bike riders and pedestrians are like dirt. Free game for builders and drivers. The communist mindset which puts machines ahead of the individuals and nature is still present. Twenty years ago, a Serbian politician (Djindjic) tried to be different. His government built this beautiful bike path and opened the river to the citizens of Belgrade. Alas, it was all for naught. Because the current authorities are again allowing the construction companies to put machine ahead of man. And they are still allowing reckless drivers to get away with endangering the riders on bike paths. There are never any police in sight there while plenty of them are seen handing out parking tickets or wasting time on other petty offenses. Bottom line: BIKERS BEWARE! Belgrade does not want you.

THE “EU” WAS HITLER’S IDEA SHOVED DOWN THE THROATS OF EUROPEANS AS A PANACEA BY THE US AND ITS EURO-VASSALS

THE "EU" WAS HITLER'S IDEA SHOVED DOWN THE THROATS OF EUROPEANS AS A PANACEA BY THE US AND ITS EURO-VASSALS SUCH A CENTRALIZATION OF POWER IS REGRESSIVE BY DEFINITION AND CANNOT BE SUSTAINED IN THE INFORMATION ERA The creation of the European Union has been the biggest marketing coup and the worst PR fraud ever perpetrated in the history of business and mankind. This writer hinted at that his articles in 1995 and 1998 (see below). But recent stunning revelations cast a new light on this mega-deception. The whole thing was Hitler's idea which the US and European post-WW II bankers sold to the naive and unsuspecting people of Europe as an economic panacea. Instead of the golden noose that the EU really is. So any nation which is a part of the EU, or aspires to become one, should know that they are walking in Hitler's footsteps with a global bankers' noose around its neck.

RIO TINTO “DEPORTED” FROM SERBIA

RARE VICTORY OF PEOPLE OVER GOVERNMENT? BUT BEWARE OF THE DEVIL YOU DON’T KNOW Every once in a while there is some good news that warms the cockles of one's heart. It is very rare these days anywhere in the world to see that democracy actually words in fact and nor just in word. But this morning's headline news was an apparent victory of the Serbian people over their government. In short, the Serbian people must be mindful of that old saw - "the devil you know is better than the devil you don't." By forging a tight relationship with China, Serbia may once again find itself in a crossfire of an economic, if not a shooting, war between the West and China.

THERE’S CHINA AND THERE’S THE REST OF THE WORLD

The economies of Spain, Canada, Britain, France, Russia, Mexico and Italy should be in the toilet by now, according to the 1994 World Bank "Weltanschauung". On the other hand, China, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Indonesia and India should have grown by 100% to 250% in the last three decades. No argument with the latter postulate. But we took issue with the former and offered our own 25-year forecast in a short editorial "End of Western Dominance?" A major flaw in World Bank's logic is the assumption that the leading economies of the 21st century will be industrial.  They will not. The industrialists of the 21st century will be the farmers of the 20th century!  (i.e., low on the food chain). The economies of the 21st century will be an information-driven mixture of arts and sciences. And smaller economies will outperform the largest ones. As can be seen from these New Year's light and laser shows, the computer technology and the internet have not only "empowered the individuals and small companies to compete with giant enterprises on a level playing field," as we predicted earlier, they have also enabled small countries to compete globally on a fairer basis.

SERBIA: GETTING IN BED WITH A DEVIL FOR A SONG

Rio Tinto has been waging war on nature for a century and a half If one were to describe succinctly what kind of business Rio Tinto is in, it would be DESTRUCTION OF NATURE. War on people, war on animals, war on trees and shrubs. Why? So Rio Tinto would turn a profit off the minerals they dig up – copper, silver, gold, diamonds, uranium… and now the almighty LITHIUM. Nature be damned. And now, Serbia is offering its Jadar region as the next rape victim.

AN AMERICAN FROM SERBIA: “THOSE WHO DO NOT LEARN FROM HISTORY ARE DOOMED TO REPEAT IT”

AN AMERICAN FROM SERBIA: "THOSE WHO DO NOT LEARN FROM HISTORY ARE DOOMED TO REPEAT IT" WILL NOTHING EVER CHANGE IN SERBIA? (for the better) So the Serbian cauldron is boiling again. People are in the streets protesting against the regime, and the police and government goons are beating them again. Just as happened in 1968 when the Belgrade students rose up against the communist dictator #1 (Tito). And again in 1996 when the Belgrade students and others marched against the communist dictator #2 (Milosevic). Only this time, the young and the old are united in their protests against the Vučić regime and his Serbian Progressive Party.

NEW YORK TIMES’ “LIBERAL” BIAS RECONFIRMED

HOW DID THE POOR HAITIAN MIGRANTS GET TO DEL RIO, TEXAS? WHO ORGANIZED AND PAID FOR THEIR TREACHEROUS 2,000-3,000-MILE JOURNEY? The New York Times once proudly displayed a tagline “all the truth that’s fit to print.” That went by the wayside a long time ago. Now the appropriate tagline should be “all the truth that fits our opinions.” This story is just the latest example.

AN AMERICAN IN SERBIA: WHAT LIVING IN BELGRADE IS LIKE AFTER 50+ YEARS IN AMERICA

Three years ago, I arrived in Serbia. The idea was to see what living in my native city for about six months would be like after spending half a century in America. Well, the best laid plans of mice and men… Three months after my arrival, a temporary living arrangement became a permanent wedlock. I married my landlady. I grew a beard. I still wear it. I lost some weight. Healthier food and lifestyle, I suppose. Those were some of the good things. The rest… well, it was a culture shock. So much rudeness. So much senseless bureaucracy. So much unnecessary regulation. So much intolerance. Now we have been back in Belgrade for a fourth summer/fall in a row. I’ve already shared with you a number of stories which document the progression of Serbia into a police state and an economy driven by washed up drug and human trafficking money. And slowed down by nonsensical regulation. Now I want to share with you some of the good sides of the Serbian capital – Belgrade. Such as its beautiful location at the confluence of two big European rivers – the Danube and Sava.

SERBIA: THE MOST RECKLESS COUNTRY

of the highest vaccinated countries in the world. Now Covid is raging in Serbia while vaccinations seem to have slowed. As a result, Serbia is now the worst country in terms of the anti-vaxxer index. What makes Serbia the worst country? First and foremost, recklessness and ignorance of the anti-vaxxers. But there's also a possibility that the Chinese vaccines, which are the most prevalent in Serbia, may not be as effective as the American Pfizer or Moderna ISRAEL PUZZLE: A HIGHLY VACCINATED COUNTRY WITH HIGH COVID INFECTIONS
