Many articles, reports and essays published in the past month have warned of the coming collapse of the global economy, the unsustainability of democratic nations' debt burdens and the destructive effects of policies like Net Zero and mass migration, in ways that suggest the 'capitalist economies' of democratic nations are in a terminal crisis.
Although capitalism is usually described as a system of free markets and voluntary exchange, in reality, it frequently relies on collusion, corruption and state-corporate coercion and violence. Given the extent of government and NGO intervention and manipulation of markets by global banks and corporate business there is little free or voluantary about it.
While it is debatable whether “free markets” ever existed this notion obscures rather than reveals what really happening. In the history of capitalism (300-400 years ago) it has undergone many changes. Most important for this discussion is that what is described as “free market capitalism” is really what is was known as capitalist free-competition. This form of capitalism indeed does look like what (US) Libertarians sing hosannas to (innovative, responding to demand efficiently etc).
However, while this form of capitalism still exists, it is vastly subordinated to monopoly capitalism, which is also known as finance capitalism and imperialism. This transformation to the dominance of finance capital was in place by 1900. Ukraine, Iran – these are imperial project by the West. Imperialism requires total domination. Sovereign independence is not acceptable to the imperial countries (US, Britain, Europe). Besides a much greater level of control over the populations of the imperial core, another objective of the Covid policies was to transfer the crisis of finance capital’s need for superprofits to exploit its own population – a massive transfer of wealth to oligarchs of finance capital.
If you command $10 thousand dollars of capital, you can have a nice vacation for your family. If you command $10 Trillion dollars of capital, you can buy countries, wars, the future of humanity itself. It is the degree of concentrated wealth that really determines imperialism. If you want you can call the “globalists” imperialists. They are. The problem is that monopoly capitalism grew out of the capitalism of free-competition, it interpenetrates everything.

Do We Have A Winter Of Civil Disobedience Ahead?
As many people in Britain slap on the apres sun gloop in the wake of what passes for a heatwave in these cool cloudy climes, our inept politicians caught with their pants down by unusual weather as usual have heard that that winter is coming and are making plans for a coldwave.
We are in the grip of an energy crisis at the height of summer. Last week, it was reported that the UK government is laying down plans for a “reasonable worst-case scenario” including blackouts for industry and even households. And this is as energy prices spiral out of control to new records every day.

Our current crop of politicians have discarded the resources that brought the country out of the post war decline ... In spite of being rich in energy resources Britain is now in an energy crisis, our leaders have sacrificed prosperity on the altar of Net Zero, committing the nation to our reducing our 1% contribution to harmful emissions still further ...
The UK government is putting plans together for days of organised blackouts this winter, in what they call a "reasonable worst-case scenario" for energy shortages, according to reports in manstream media. Naturally they are blaming this on the embargo on importing gas from Russia but in reality Britain has never imported any more than a small amout of its gas from Russia. The real reason politicians and energy company CEOs are panicking is entirely due to their obession with obtaining all our energy from intermittent sources like wind and sunshine ...

Is Russia Selling Its Oil To The World Through An Obscure Egyptian Port?
As this blog predicted when NATO and EU member states shot themselves in the foot by reacting to Russia's invasion of Ukraine with sanctions that prevented Russia from selling oil, gas and vital raw materials to the countries that needed them most, the NATO and EU member states, the Russians have had no problems finding alternative customers for their gas and oil and no problem getting oil into the world's commodity markets through the back door.Has Putin Has Pushed Europe Into Economic Depression, Hyperrinflation and Currency Collapse?

As the war in Ukraine grinds on and Russia steps up its economic war against the west and in particular The European Union, claims made recently by the idiotically 'woke' leaders of Europe's main economic and military powers that the West has a once-in-a–generation chance to severely weaken Russia’s capabilities, both militarily and geopolitically, look increasingly hollow. Putin's critics have cited 'Western unity' as one of the main reasons why Russia will be economically destroyed and politically humiliated when the Ukraine's military finally claim victory.European Union Is Again Close To A Meltdown As Eurozone Economy Collapses

The British government on Saturday accused Russia of organizing a plot to install a pro-Moscow government in Ukraine, as the Kremlin masses troops near the Ukrainian border.

It is deeply troubling to observe the extent of military aggression currently being carried out by the Israeli state, and perhaps more disturbing is the apparent popular support within Israel itself—where polls suggest that over 80% of the population endorse these actions. That said, recent developments hint at a shift: a growing number of Israelis are beginning to question not only the dominant narrative but also the long-term consequences of these policies.
A widespread belief persists, especially outside the United States, that Israel exerts a disproportionate influence over U.S. foreign policy particularly relations with Iran. This perception—whether accurate or exaggerated—has often served a dual purpose: on one hand, it deflects accountability from U.S. institutions by externalizing blame onto the so-called “Israel Lobby,” and on the other, it helps maintain a domestic self-image of American benevolence. According to this narrative, Israel is the rogue actor, while the United States is cast as the reluctant patron, constantly trying to rein in its unruly ally.
However, this interpretation may obscure a deeper and more systemic reality. Rather than viewing Israel as the puppeteer, it may be more accurate to see it as a key instrument—among many—in the service of a transnational financial and political elite. This elite, which is not subject to democratic oversight, is composed of powerful financial institutions such as Vanguard, BlackRock, and State Street. These entities, along with their global network of military, political, and media assets, effectively shape and execute an international agenda oriented around perpetual war, resource extraction, and economic control.
In this broader context, Israel functions as a strategically located forward operating base—or to borrow a metaphor, an “aircraft carrier”—for Western geopolitical interests in the Middle East. Its citizenry, like those of many modern states, are socialized from birth to serve in various roles—soldiers, professionals, workers—within a larger ideological and institutional apparatus. The ideological foundation of Israeli society reinforces a sense of existential threat, encouraging a militarized posture that conveniently aligns with the long-term goals of Western financial power.
To maintain this system, extensive propaganda is required. Media in the West plays a crucial role in manufacturing consent, shaping public perception through a mixture of omission, distraction, and simplification. Critical voices are marginalized, while dissent—both domestic and international—is often criminalized or delegitimized. When Western populations protest the policies of Israel or their own governments’ complicity, they are often met with surveillance, suppression, or accusations of disloyalty or extremism.
The so-called “Israel Lobby” must be understood not merely as a group of ideologically motivated Zionists, but as a tool of influence embedded within a much larger structure of control. This mechanism is fueled not only by private wealth but by vast public funds—especially from inflated and unaccountable defense budgets—which are used to influence legislators, universities, think tanks, and media outlets. While the lobby is visibly staffed by individuals of Jewish background, its true function is not religious or even nationalistic in nature; rather, it is instrumental, designed to shape political outcomes that serve the strategic interests of global capital.
What is at stake is not simply Israeli policy or American foreign policy, but the integrity of democratic institutions globally. The Israeli state serves as a cover—an operational front—for deeper structural forces. So too do other global hotspots: Ukraine, certain European governments, and a host of NGOs and “freedom-promoting” entities. These are not independent actors but functionaries within a larger system that perpetuates conflict and concentrates wealth.
The question then becomes: who is really calling the shots?
The evidence suggests it is not elected governments, but the largest banking institutions and their asset management arms. These entities exert influence over political parties, media ecosystems, and global markets. They control not only the narrative but the very machinery of governance. Political figures who appear powerful—such as former U.S. President Donald Trump—are, in this view, often compromised and manipulated into compliance through covert leverage, including personal scandals and intelligence operations.
In this analysis, almost everything becomes a tool of this unaccountable power: Israel, the lobby, the U.S. military, taxpayers, media conglomerates, even citizens themselves. Belief in the dominant narratives—without question or critique—renders individuals passive participants in a global system that undermines their own autonomy.
If there is to be any meaningful resistance to this state of affairs, it must begin with public awareness, critical thought, and courageous dissent. The mythology of democratic values and humanitarian intervention must be confronted with empirical scrutiny and moral clarity. Only by dismantling the mechanisms of narrative control and exposing the financial structures behind endless conflict can any hope for peace and justice emerge.
