Doctorow Suggests That Trump’s Political Theater Was a Successful Strategy, by Paul Craig Roberts
The Unz Review - Jun 24th 2025 12:00am EDTWashington has wasted the first quarter of the 21st century fighting wars for Israel, the consequence being the destruction of the Arab world.

Zionist Israel as the Assassination Nation, by Ron Unz
The Unz Review - Jun 23rd 2025 12:00am EDTTen days ago a sudden surprise Israeli attack inflicted a terrible, decapitating blow upon the leadership of the Islamic Republic of Iran, successfully assassinating the country’s top military commanders, its chief nuclear weapons negotiator, and nearly all of its most prominent nuclear scientists.

Bullseye On Israel, by Mike Whitney
The Unz Review - Jun 22nd 2025 12:10am EDTFirst, let’s state the obvious: Trump’s pinprick attacks on Iran inflicted “no substantial damage” to their nuclear facilities. The bunker busting bombs did apparently strike near the entry of two of the facilities, but those sites were already locked down (evacuated?) in preparation for the bombing. The government announced on Sunday that all the enriched…
The Horsemen of the Apocalypse, by Paul Craig Roberts
The Unz Review - Jun 22nd 2025 12:10am EDTI awoke this morning to find that America Again Crawls on Its Belly for Israel and adds another war crime to its impressive 21st century list.

The Unz Review - Jun 22nd 2025 12:00am EDTWe Should Give Matt Gaetz a Chance, by Andrew Anglin
The Unz Review - Jun 21st 2025 12:00am EDTMatt Gaetz hosted a Zero Hedge backed debate between libertarian Dave Smith and (allegedly non-Jewish) neocon global domininationist Robert Spencer this week. Overall, the debate is mundane and not worth watching. Probably, everyone is familiar with all of the content here, and these debates are sort of just repetitive and tiresome at this point, particularly…
Russia Wants to Have Its Cake and Eat It Too, by Paul Craig Roberts
The Unz Review - Jun 20th 2025 12:00am EDTThe Kremlin’s spokesman said the countries in the Middle East are “now plunging into the abyss of instability and war.” The Kremlin should have thought about that before Putin green-lighted the instability and war by standing aside from Russia’s Iranian ally, just as Putin stood aside from Russia’s Syrian ally, thus leading to the destruction…

Putin Aligns with Israel and Finds a New Way to Deny Reality, by John Helmer
The Unz Review - Jun 19th 2025 12:05am EDTJohn Helmer reports that Putin said he supports the “unconditional security of Israel” and that the Russian-Iranian treaty “did not envisage military cooperation.” Is this Putin’s green light for a US/Israeli strike on Iran? Why does Putin support the security of Israel but not of Iran? Israel is the aggressor, not Iran. Iran is a…

I’ll also share a detailed and nuanced analysis of…
Why You Should Hate the Rich Even More (w/ Rob Larson), by Chris Hedges
The Unz Review - Jun 18th 2025 12:00am EDTThe ultra-wealthy hover above the realities of the world around them like extraterrestrial aliens. Their material reality physically separates them from the rest of society with gated communities and private jets but paradoxically, their very wealth also severs them psychologically, unable to understand the reality of the 99%.

Intelligence Has Departed Every Government, by Paul Craig Roberts
The Unz Review - Jun 18th 2025 12:00am EDTIran had the strategic advantage over Israel and could have wiped Israel out. Instead, the hapless Iranians sat passively on their butts, gave a gratuitous demonstration of their capability, thus putting Israel on guard without doing any damage to Israel. Next the Iranian government failed to see the many indications that it was about to…
The Definition of Insanity – Reading a Neocon Think Tank Report on Russia, by Ian Proud
The Unz Review - Jun 18th 2025 12:00am EDTLet’s do what we’ve been doing for a decade and hope for a different result Apparently, there is no evidence that Albert Einstein ever said ‘the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results’.

What China’s Position Should be with the Iran Israel War, by Hua Bin
The Unz Review - Jun 18th 2025 12:00am EDTThere are many comments on my last piece on the Iran Israel war – Iran’s predicament is largely a result of its follies.

The Unz Review - Jun 17th 2025 12:07am EDTI received many thoughtful reader comments for the essay Revolution is not a dinner party.

Stop Netanyahu Before He Gets Us All Killed, by Jeffrey D. Sachs and Sybil Fares
The Unz Review - Jun 17th 2025 12:05am EDTFor nearly 30 years, Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has driven the Middle East into war and destruction. The man is a powder keg of violence. Throughout all the wars that he has championed, Netanyahu has always dreamed of the big one: to defeat and overthrow the Iranian Government. His long-sought war, just launched, might…

Fragility of MAGA Idealism, Terminological Perversion of ‘Anti-Semitism’, and the Self-Fulfilling Prophecy of Iranian Fatalism on the Nuclear Debate, by Jung-Freud
The Unz Review - Jun 16th 2025 5:23am EDTMAGA rots. In any movement, there’s elitism and populism, and then there is a sliver of idealism. Idealists are always in the minority but lend the luster of integrity and principles. Elitists mainly care about position, status, and privilege. Populists mainly crave red-meat, a sense that the Great Man is watching out for them and…

The Unz Review - Jun 16th 2025 12:00am EDTMuch like individuals, countries may often become victims of their own great success. This risk certainly applies to criminals, including criminal regimes. Even if they effectively conceal their direct involvement in particular incidents, over time their method of operation—their “M.O.”—may become obvious. This allows the ready identification of their handiwork, whether by law enforcement agencies…
How to Say in Russian Happy Birthday Donald, Happy Us Army and Flag Day, by John Helmer
The Unz Review - Jun 15th 2025 12:00am EDTThere are no flies on President Vladimir Putin. That’s an expression which originated in the fly-blown goldrush mines of Australia in 1840 and then moved with the flies to the goldrush mines of California a few years later. Literally, it means a man who is too quick for a fly to settle on him. Metaphorically,…
TACO Trump’s Harsh Optics While Selling Out On Immigration Will End In Disaster, by Robert Stark
The Unz Review - Jun 14th 2025 12:15am EDTsource: @DonMiami3 on X Trump’s ICE raids feel performative as the actual number of illegal immigrants deported is not that much.

Iran-the-Unready, by Paul Craig Roberts
The Unz Review - Jun 14th 2025 12:00am EDTLike all opponents of Washington and Israel, Iran proved itself unready. Muslims never seize the initiative. They sit on their butts until they are decapitated. Instead of taking Israel out, Iran suffered a serious attack and then feebly retaliated. Wars are not won by retaliation. The mystery is why was Iran unready? Iran has had…
Morgan Stanley Predicts China Will Lead the $5 Trillion Humanoid Market, by Hua Bin
The Unz Review - Jun 14th 2025 12:00am EDTAn investor friend sent me a Morgan Stanley report published in April titled Humanoids: A $5 Trillion Market. The report validates my hypothesis that embodied AI (i.e. humanoids) is the next frontier beyond foundational LLMs. The opening of the report is certainly attention-catching: While Nvidia’s Jensen Huang and Elon Musk remain the biggest celebrity promoters…
