…by Gordon Duff, VT Senior Editor [ Note: … Jim W. Dean ] ______________ I hate writing this. I just finished explaining Kevin’s piece on Korea and just finished talking with Jimmie.

There is a fight over “Zionism”, over the meaning of the word “Zionism”. Words are important because social opinion and attitude mobbing has a strong influence on domestic and foreign politics.

Editor’s note: You are going to see police shoot an unarmed man without warning, point blank for no reason, and then cuff the shooting victim. And some say a record number of Americans are giving up their citizenship for “tax reasons.” Give me a break. Here in Toledo, police shot and killed an Iraqi war […]

Illustration by Robert G Fresson Jonathan Freedland Who’s the villain here? Naturally our rage focuses on Donald Trump, a pantomime baddie drawn, as he would put it, from central casting. But behind him stand many others, and it’s about time they shared in the opprobrium. Start with the unfolding scandal over Trumpworld’s links with Vladimir Putin’s Russia, and […]
