Zionist Israel is the most heavily-armed garrison state in the Middle East yet its survival is not guaranteed. This is the prognosis of not its enemies but some of its leading lights among them Ehud Barak, a former army chief and prime minister.

America’s “help” to Ukraine is not so much aid as it is loans that have to be repaid. More critically, the US has used the conflict in Ukraine to crush Europe’s attempt to gain freedom from Uncle Sam’s deathly embrace. So much for US friendship.

June marks another anniversary of Imam Khomeini’s departure from this temporary abode to join heavenly company. In bringing about the Islamic revolution, he challenged the global order imposed by the victors of the Second World War. It has revolutionized people’s thinking worldwide.

Its latest example was witnessed in the high-powered US delegation sent to Abu Dhabi ostensibly to offer condolences on the death of its president but in reality, to reset relations.
