Police Problems? Embrace Liberty!, by Ron Paul
The Unz Review - Apr 26th 2021 1:02pm EDTMany Americans saw former policeman Derek Chauvin’s conviction on all counts last week as affirming the principle that no one is above the law.

Richard Strauss and the Survival of Western Culture, by Boyd D. Cathey
The Unz Review - Apr 26th 2021 1:02pm EDTFor a number of years I’ve greatly admired and enjoyed the music of the German composer Richard Strauss (1864-1949). In his early years prior to the First World War, he was considered forward-looking, even musically avant-garde. Indeed, the aged defender of the German classical tradition—and another favorite—Max Bruch (d. 1920), found Strauss’ compositions too advanced… […]

Uncharted Waters, by Israel Shamir
The Unz Review - Apr 25th 2021 4:02pm EDTThe US has been fighting two wars: with Ukraine against Russia, and with Russia against Climate. Both are very costly, both bring no profit to Americans, both are entirely unnecessary, but both are essential for the Biden regime at this time, as the Covid pandemic runs out of steam. How will matters proceed? The Ukrainian… […]

Fake CVs, Fake Results?, by James Thompson
The Unz Review - Apr 24th 2021 11:13am EDTI recently commented on the UK report “Commission on Race and Ethnic Disparities”, which dared to suggest that systemic racism was not the major cause of race differences in Britain.

The Unz Review - Apr 24th 2021 9:32am EDTIn the visual arts, there’s Egon Schiele who died at 28, Seurat at 31, and the photographer Francesca Woodman, who leapt from a window of a Lower East Side building at just 22 years of age.

The Unz Review - Apr 23rd 2021 10:32pm EDT[Excerpted from the latest Radio Derb, now available exclusively through VDARE.com] It’s St. George’s Day, April 23. This has actually been St. George’s week; not the chap who slew the dragon, but St. George Floyd of Minneapolis, who was slain himself last year by something much more fearsome than any dragon—by systemic racism! So the… […]
Putin Rewrites the Law of the Geopolitical Jungle, by Pepe Escobar
The Unz Review - Apr 23rd 2021 1:32pm EDTPutin’s address to the Russian Federal Assembly – a de facto State of the Nation – was a judo move that left Atlanticist sphere hawks particularly stunned. The “West” was not even mentioned by name. Only indirectly, or via a delightful metaphor, Kipling’s Jungle Book. Foreign policy was addressed only at the end, almost as… […]
The Secession of French Elites, by Guillaume Durocher
The Unz Review - Apr 23rd 2021 7:17am EDTIn previous articles, we have seen how French pollster Jérôme Fourquet in his The French Archipelago has statistically documented the rise of social liberalism, the growing presence and character of Muslims, and the general decline of shared identity in France. Another crucial phenomenon is what Fourquet calls “the cultural, geographical, and ideological secession of the… […]
Is America Led Today By Anti-Americans?, by Pat Buchanan
The Unz Review - Apr 23rd 2021 12:00am EDTHow can America unite again to do great things if we are led by people who believe America suffers from a great sickness of the soul, an original sin that dates back to her birth as a nation? Consider. After his long night of prayer for “the right verdict” to be pronounced — Derek Chauvin… […]

Despite being… […]
Latest Skirmish with Syria Shows Israel Is Much Weaker Than It Looks, by Eric Striker
The Unz Review - Apr 22nd 2021 9:43am EDTFor years Israel’s Arab neighbors have grown accustomed to routine unprovoked attacks on their infrastructure, soldiers and civilians by the Jewish state. While Syria’s air defense has been increasing its success rate in quashing Israeli raids, the latest exchange between the two countries has opened up the possibility to strike back. Yesterday, a missile bypassed… […]
We Can’t Police These People, by Gregory Hood
The Unz Review - Apr 21st 2021 12:35pm EDT“Nothing is more certainly written in the book of fate than that these people are to be free. Nor is it less certain that the two races, equally free, cannot live in the same government. Nature, habit, opinion has drawn indelible lines of distinction between them.” – Thomas Jefferson The trial was pointless. We knew… […]

The Lynch Mob Howled, by Jared Taylor
The Unz Review - Apr 20th 2021 9:17pm EDTThe jury has found Derek Chauvin guilty on all three counts. It took fewer than 24 hours to reach a unanimous decision. I have argued all along that an acquittal was impossible, no matter what the evidence showed. No jury, anywhere in the United States, could have found Mr. Chauvin innocent after nearly a year… […]
Lance Welton on Jewish Ethnocentrism, by Kevin MacDonald
The Unz Review - Apr 20th 2021 5:17pm EDTLance Welton’s article on VDARE is a nice summary of research on Jewish ethnocentrism and its consequences: “Did the ADL Think It Could Get Away Hypocrisy on Replacement in U.S. vs. Israel? Answer: It Probably Didn’t Think At All.” As noted below, some of his presentation touches on my Individualism and the Western Liberal Tradition… […]

Who Will be the Next ‘America First’ President?, by Pat Buchanan
The Unz Review - Apr 20th 2021 12:00am EDTWhen President Joe Biden announced he would withdraw all U.S. troops from Afghanistan by the 20th anniversary of 9/11, GOP hawks like Sens. Mitch McConnell and Lindsey Graham responded predictably. “Grave mistake,” muttered McConnell. “Insane,” said Graham, “dumber than dirt and… dangerous.” Of more interest were the responses of conservative Republicans who commended the president….

Tucker Carlson Exposes Zionist Hypocrisy on Immigration, by Philip Giraldi
The Unz Review - Apr 20th 2021 12:00am EDTWell, the cat is finally well and truly out of the bag when it comes to Israeli and organized Jewry’s hypocrisy.

It was from a familiar playbook that groups… […]

The Unz Review - Apr 19th 2021 4:47pm EDTI was hopeful that Russian-based news sources such as RT and Sputnik would do a better job than the American presstitutes.
