For starters, the editorial ‘Mr. Putin goes to Pyongyang and we don’t like that show‘ is filled with hyperbolic anti Putin rhetoric. Instead of relying on an esteemed political scientist to analyze Putin’s psyche, the Trib quotes the dramatist of ‘The Crown’ who sees Putin as “an obscure deputy mayor of St. Petersburg who rose up to be an unreconstructed thug.” That adds no value to understanding one of the most influential world leaders who is currently running diplomatic rings around President Biden. His leadership in both the non-aligned Shanghai Cooperation Organization and BRICS, together containing many nonaligned nations comprising over half the world’s population, spells the approaching end to US unipolar world dominance.

A Family’s Torment, A Dying Empire’s Rage

Ukrainian Anti-War Activist Jailed on Dubious Charges
Zelenskyy’s Ukraine has had a long and egregious history of jailing political dissenters, particularly those opposed to the current “forever war”. From banning opposing political parties to censoring media critical of Zelenskyy’s leadership, it seems indisputable that Ukraine has increasingly resorted to despotic measures to control public opinion.
