Zelensky Fundraises at WEF + The Death of Gonzalo Lira w/ Mark Sleboda
Zelensky is back on the fundraising trail at the World Economic Forum, as he tries to convince the U.S. and the EU to make progress on passing tens of billions of Dollars in new aid packages for Ukraine. But while the Biden Admin assures Zelensky that he has Washington’s support, they ignore the American citizen who just died in Kiev’s custody.
International Relations and Security Analyst Mark Sleboda noted that the detainment, torture and ultimately the death of Gonzalo Lira was not only something the Biden Admin allowed to happen by refusing to intervene—it was a warning to anyone in the region who openly criticizes Zelensky, no matter their nationality.

Zelensky Meets with World Leaders at WEF in Davos to Talk 'Peace Plan' ...Without Russia
The World Economic Forum is back in Davos this week, and it wouldn’t be complete without a meeting of world leaders to talk about peace in Ukraine. The main problem? Russia wasn’t included.
The other glaring problem that is being ignored as Switzerland agrees to Zelensky’s request to host a summit to talk about his so-called “peace plan” is that the plan in question requires Russia’s complete surrender and the return of Ukraine’s borders to the days before Kiev became a puppet of the West in a U.S.-backed coup.
In other words, Zelensky is just planning his next lethal aid fundraiser in the name of “peace” in Ukraine.

The U.S. is Starting Another War to Distract from Landmark Case Against Israel
Biden has approved a second round of strikes in Yemen, which his administration claims is in retaliation for Ansar Allah's targeting of Israel-linked ships in the Red Sea.
But while the U.S. is defending Israel publicly, politically and militarily, it's also trying to distract from the historic genocide case South Africa has brought against Israel in the International Court of Justice.
South Africa's team has laid out a thorough case, pointing to Israel's genocidal rhetoric (Defense Minister Gallant saying there would be "no electricity, no food, no fuel") and genocidal actions (23,000+ Palestinians killed, 70% of whom are women and children, 7,000+ buried under rubble, 60,000+ injured), while Israel continues to say "but Hamas..." as if the Oct. 7 attack they were warned about and ignored is justification for committing genocide.

Israel on Trial for Genocide + U.S./Iran Tensions Rise w/ George Galloway
The landmark genocide case against Israel began at the International Court of Justice today, with South Africa presenting evidence of both genocidal rhetoric and actions committed by Israel against the Palestinian people in their massacre of the Gaza Strip.
Former UK MP and Host of the Mother of All Talk Shows, George Galloway, noted that while the U.S. and the UK may defend Israel and call the case "politically motivated" in public, they could also see the potential of the UN's top court ordering an immediate halt to Israel's bombardment as a sort of "off ramp" preventing a regional collision that could lead us to WW3.

Blinken Tells Israel to Stop Harming Civilians—Won't Stop Giving Them Weapons w/ Robert Inlakesh
The Biden Amin sent Blinken on his latest tour of the Middle East, and today he stopped in Tel Aviv, where he delivered the same spiel about how Israel needs to kill less civilians—while ignoring the fact that the U.S. supplies the weapons that enable Israel to continue committing genocide in Palestine.
Journalist Robert Inlakesh noted that Netanyahu is now increasing tensions with Hezbollah because his campaign to "defeat Hamas" has failed massively and he knows that any kind of peace will mean the end of his career.

Israel Bombs Beirut, Tensions Rise in Red Sea + 100 Killed by Blast in Iran w/ Elijah J. Magnier
Tensions continue to rise surrounding Iran, as nearly 100 people were killed in an attack targeting a memorial near the grave site of Iranian General Qassem Soleimani, four years after he was assassinated by the U.S.
Veteran Journalist Elijah J. Magnier noted that we are seeing an increase in high-profile attacks, as this week Israel bombed Beirut, killing a Hamas senior official. This, as tensions also continue to rise in the Red Sea, where Iran has sent a warship, and the U.S. is rallying its allies to target Yemen...

Biden Admin Planning to Steal $300 BILLION in Russian Assets for Ukraine w/ Alex Christoforou
Biden, Blinken, Nuland and Co. are reportedly pushing G7 allies to come up with a plan to illegally seize around $300 BILLION in Russian assets for Ukraine, as the U.S. and the EU struggle to pass more aid for Kiev.
Alex Christoforou of The Duran noted that it doesn't matter how many experts have said that this plan is illegal and will have massive ramifications for the U.S. and the EU—Biden is desperate, and the warnings of logic and precedent aren't stopping him from moving forward with his latest cash grab for Ukraine.

Israel Warns of War with Hezbollah amid Lebanon Border Clashes w/ Dr. Ramzy Baroud
Israeli officials are warning that time is running out for a diplomatic solution with Hezbollah, as clashes continue to increase along the border with Lebanon. But given that Israel's bombardment of the Gaza Strip has killed mainly children and women—and not the Hamas fighters they claim to be targeting—it raises the question of how much more Israel can handle...
Palestinian-American Journalist Dr. Ramzy Baroud noted that while Washington's focus on the Middle East has died down in recent years, Israel is trying to force the U.S. to return, in order to support a regional war that could include both Hezbollah and Iran.

Zelensky: From 'Person of the Year' to 'Emperor with No Clothes' w/ Mark Sleboda
Ukraine's Zelensky went from being TIME Magazine's "Person of the Year," showered with praise and funding by the West—to begging for more lethal aid as TIME describes him as "delusional."
International Relations and Security Analyst Mark Sleboda noted that while the West may be waking up to the reality that Ukraine isn't winning, as they struggle to pass more funding for Kiev, Zelensky continues to be the "Emperor with No Clothes," with an inner circle that is scared to question him.

The U.S. Fights Wars For Profit—Not Victory w/ Kevork Almassian
The Pentagon is struggling to keep up with the cost as it uses $2 Million missiles to take down the $2,000 drones coming from Yemen, as the Biden Admin tries to justify support for Israel and the U.S. Military’s presence in the Red Sea.
Political commentator and Founder of Syriana Analysis, Kevork Almassian, noted that instead of serving the national security interests of the American people, the U.S. Military continues to serve the financial interests of the private sector defense contractors who profit from fueling wars around the world.

The Decline of the U.S. Empire and the Emerging Multipolar World w/ Prof. Richard Wolff
Americans are struggling to pay their bills, going into debt and working multiple jobs just to survive, while the U.S. Government focuses on a reckless foreign policy focused on fighting nation-building and proxy wars against Russia and China.
Prof. Richard Wolff, an Economist and founder of Democracy at Work, noted that the Biden Admin is insulting the American people when it tries to convince them that the economy is great and so-called 'Bidenomics' is working, when they see the reality of the crumbling 'U.S. Empire' all around them...

Pentagon Panics as Yemen's Houthis Disrupt Red Sea Traffic w/ Esteban Carrillo
The U.S. may be picking fights around the world with support for Israel, Ukraine and Taiwan, but the Pentagon is now scrambling to respond to the one threat it apparently didn't see coming: Yemen's Houthis interrupting traffic in the Red Sea, in order to push for a ceasefire in Gaza.
Ecuadorian Journalist and Editor of The Cradle, Esteban Carrillo, noted that while several Arab nations say they support a ceasefire, they're showing that support in name only, refusing to take any tangible steps to push Israel to stop committing genocide. But Yemen is actually doing something about it.

What Israel Has Really Accomplished in Gaza w/ Ghadi Francis
Israel's ethnic cleansing of the Gaza Strip continued with "unwavering" support from the U.S., despite the soaring civilian death toll. But more than 10 weeks in, it begs the question—what has Israel accomplished in Gaza, aside from the slaughter of thousands of Palestinian civilians?
Lebanese Journalist and War Correspondent Ghadi Francis noted that the Palestinian resistance is becoming stronger than ever, as Israel exposes its military and strategic weaknesses, along with its hunger for genocide to the world.

Israel's Unprecedented Artificial Intelligence Warfare in Gaza w/ Vanessa Beeley
Israel is relying heavily on artificial intelligence in its bombardment of the Gaza Strip, with the IDF using a system they call "The Gospel" to choose targets at an unprecedented rate. That's as a recent report says nearly half of the nearly 30,000 bombs Israel has launched in the last 10 weeks have been "unguided" munitions.
Independent Journalist Vanessa Beeley says that anyone wondering why the U.S., the UK and the EU would support Israel—as it kills 20,000 Palestinians, mainly women and children—needs to keep in mind that they are using Gaza as a testing ground for the latest weapons and technology.

Biden Calls Israel’s Bombing ‘Indiscriminate,’ Vows to Support It w/ Robert Inlakesh
Biden recently called Israel’s bombardment of the Gaza Strip “indiscriminate,” as the overwhelming majority of the around 20,000 Palestinians killed by Israel are women and children.
Journalist Robert Inlakesh noted that everything from Israel’s carpet bombing tactics, to its mess of a ground invasion, to the IDF’s own reports that several of its soldiers have been killed by friendly fire, show that Israel doesn’t seem to have any clear objective in this war.
But of course, Biden vowed to continue supplying Israel with money and weapons, knowing that they will be used to kill more civilians.

Zelensky Facing 'Perfect Storm' After Failed U.S. Fundraiser w/ Mark Sleboda

The U.S. is Abandoning American Citizens in Gaza w/ Dr. Ramzy Baroud
While the Biden Admin has made it abundantly clear that it doesn't care about Palestinian civilians, as it continues to fully support Israel's ethnic cleansing of the Gaza Strip, it is also showing the world that it doesn't care about American citizens—as hundreds remain trapped with the State Dept. doing little to try to secure their safety.
Palestinian-American Journalist Dr. Ramzy Baroud, who has lost at least 24 family members and counting in Israel's latest bombardment, noted that for Americans trying to escape Israel's wrath, the U.S. passport has become meaningless.

Biden Admin Begs for Ukraine Aid, Defends Israel’s Crimes
The Biden Admin has resorted to begging in order to try to get Congress to approve billions more in military aid for Ukraine, with the president insisting, "We can't let Putin win" the conflict that the U.S. started with Russia a decade ago.
When they aren't talking about Ukraine, the Biden Admin is continuing to try to defend Israel's war crimes, even as the death toll in Gaza from Israel's bombardment nears 18,000 Palestinians killed—70% women and children—with thousands more buried under rubble, and nearly 50,000 injured.
But State Dept. Spokesman Matthew Miller wouldn't dare call any of it a "war crime," and the U.S. is still using its veto power to strike down any UN Security Council resolution that mentions the need for a "humanitarian ceasefire."

Putin Meets with Leaders of Saudi Arabia, UAE Ahead of BRICS Expansion w/ Elijah J. Magnier

Americans Turning Against ’Blank Check’ for Ukraine, Israel w/ Scott Horton
The U.S. Senate just voted to block Biden’s requested $100 BILLION+ package that includes funding for Israel and Ukraine—at least for now.
Scott Horton, Director of the Libertarian Institute, noted that the pressure on Congress is increasing, as Americans finally wake up to the propaganda that fuels the U.S. War Machine, and when faced with the truth of what their tax dollars are funding with support for Ukraine and Israel, they are calling for an end to the endless wars.

'This Genocide is Televised' w/ Ghadi Francis
Israel killed 700 Palestinians in just 24 hours this week, as it ramps up its bombardment of the Gaza Strip, vowing to hit the southern half with the same strength as the northern half, which has been described as "Hell on Earth."
Lebanese Journalist and War Correspondent Ghadi Francis noted that not only is nowhere in Gaza safe, but Israel is targeting the same areas it told civilians to flee to, and the world is watching as genocide is being committed before our eyes.

The Biden Admin's Cover for Israel's War Crimes w/ Said Arikat
The State Dept. says the U.S. does not believe Israel is intentionally killing civilians in Gaza—even as the overwhelming majority of the Palestinians killed by Israel's intentional bombardment are women and children.
Veteran Palestinian Journalist Said Arikat discussed the questions he posed to Matthew Miller about what the Biden Admin is doing to stop Israel from killing civilians, and why the U.S. isn't doing more, when it claims to care about international law.

Zelensky's Days as 'Darling of The West' are Numbered w/ Mark Sleboda
NATO's Chief is warning the alliance needs to be “prepared for bad news” on Ukraine, as he becomes the latest in the West to admit that Kiev isn't winning the war against Russia, despite unprecedented support from the U.S. and its allies.
International Relations and Security Analyst Mark Sleboda noted that the West's sudden change in rhetoric on Ukraine is no surprise, and while Zelensky is doing everything he can to stay in power and eliminate his competition, the Biden Admin continues to eye his top general, Valery Zaluzhny as his replacement.

Media Ignores Humanitarian Crisis Israel Created in Gaza w/ Dr. Ramzy Baroud
While Western media focus on the truce and hostage-transfer deal, the humanitarian crisis in Gaza created by Israel continues, with more than 15,000 Palestinians dead—nearly 70% of whom are women and children—and more than 7,000 missing, buried under rubble.
Dr. Ramzy Baroud explained why, in the eyes of the West, "Palestinians murder" but "Israelis kill," or "Palestinians die in clashes" with apparently no one to blame.
