THE UNZ REVIEW - An Alternative Media Selection

​​If you’ve ever wondered why American ideas travel farther and faster than American armies, the answer isn’t just Hollywood or Harvard. You can thank Melvin Lasky for that. From Berlin’s lecture halls to London’s literary circles, he perfected the art of wrapping geopolitics in glossy prose, making soft power feel like common sense while keeping...

PCR discusses with Nima the path to nuclear war. PCR comes on at the 1:01 mark. During the first hour Larry Johnson discusses with Nima the coming war with Iran. You will learn far more from these discussions that you ever could from CNN, NPR, Fox News, NY Times and the rest of the whore...

Everything before October 7 explains why October 7 happened, and so does everything that’s happened since. Look at what happened before October 7 and you’ll see year after year of murder, oppression and abuse. Look at everything that’s happened since October 7 and you’ll understand the kind of sadistic, psychopathic regime the Palestinians have been...

President Trump’s 20-point plan offers some constructive proposals on hostages, humanitarian aid, and reconstruction. Yet it is marred by an unmistakable colonial framework: Gaza is to be overseen by Trump himself, with Tony Blair and other outsiders cast as trustees for Palestinian governance—while Palestinian statehood is deferred indefinitely. This logic is not new. It reprises...

By the end of 2019, I encountered a written exchange between Nathan Cofnas and Kevin MacDonald. I was eager to follow this discussion, as I had grown increasingly frustrated with figures such as Steven Pinker and others who made little attempt to engage with the metaphysical framework underlying MacDonald’s views. Rather than addressing his approach...

I know---another Charlie Kirk article. Try not to puke. However, I think his story can provide insight into Mossad-Deep State psychological operations as well as the trajectory of Western Civilization, and perhaps we can even have a bit of fun along the way. Charlie Kirk was a psyop, in both life and death. At first...

Last week I published an article on the release of Tucker Carlson's new 9/11 series, suggesting that it had the potential to resurrect the now dormant 9/11 Truth movement. Each year, those momentous events of 2001 had received less and less discussion. On the recent twenty-fourth anniversary, they passed almost totally unnoticed, completely swept aside...

The Israeli Minister of National Security says he is proud that the members of the Greta Thunberg flotilla that was bringing food and medicines to Palestinians, who are being deliberately starved and denied medical assistance by Israel, are being punished as terrorists and subject to harsh treatment. The minister, Itamar Ben Gvir, demonstrates by his...

The current government in Georgia, a former province of the Soviet and Russian empires, is not anti-Russian as was the Georgian government in 2008 that Washington used to invade the Russian protectorate of South Ossetia, resulting in Georgia’s rapid defeat by the Russian Army. The present government is pro-Georgian and resists being drawn from either...

Two years passed since this memorable morning raid, when the Hamas fighters realised the wildest fantasy of our lifetime, and escaped on the eagle wings from the prison of Gaza. They flew over the barbed wire and mine fields where their cruel prison guards kept them jailed for fifteen long years, and attacked the jailers....

Black Man Who Murdered 6-Year-Old Boy During Break-In Freed for ‘Good Behavior’ after 7 Years Here is the liberal-left’s ideal American: Compare the lenient treatment black criminal Ronald Exantus received from the white liberals with the treatment white policeman Derek Chauvin received from the white liberals. George Floyd died from an overdose of fentanyl as...

Social media influencers continued to mourn the death of Iryna Zarutska, a 23-year-old Ukrainian refugee brutally killed on a Charlotte, N.C., light rail. While Iryna’s memory deserves to be honored, the steady toll of young white women losing their lives in America to black aggressors should not be overlooked. In just the past few weeks,...

My last piece focused on the world’s fastest car and humanoid made in China by BYD and Robotera. However, breakthrough innovations are happening not only in future industries like EV or robotics. Those of us who follow technology are often blindsided by progress in the “new and shining objects” like AI, humanoid, or space exploration....

For all the media hand-wringing over the government shutdown the fact is only approximately 750,000 of the over two million non-military federal workers are being furloughed. Most federal programs will continue operating, including the major entitlement and welfare programs. The national parks will remain open, if understaffed and with closed visitor centers. Unfortunately, the shutdown...

Politicians, the police and the media want millions of us to imagine we are alone in grieving the slaughter of Gaza’s children – and that our grief is shameful. They need us to succumb to their lies Members of the Jewish community have been grieving for three days now over the killing of two innocent...

Carlson says some good things here. His main blind spot is castigating the American political class f0r their support of Israel (toward the beginning), but very little on how Jewish activism, Jewish media and Jewish money shape the attitudes of political elites. He notes well into his comments that AIPAC should register under the FARA...

Rumble link Bitchute link The Truth Action Project (TAP) is “a grassroots network of truth-seekers, united in the mission to expose deception, end secrecy, and resist tyranny.” They recently interviewed me and Captain Dan Hanley, the former commercial airline pilot, Muslim convert, and now Pakistan-based expat who cites evidence that an uninterruptible autopilot system allowing...

90 Percent of Americans have no valid foreign policy information. Valid information is not what the Western media serves. Even foreign reporting of Western news events repeats the official Western narratives. Few Americans desire good information sufficiently to make the effort to acquire it. The four interviews below by people who do make the effort...

It’s cute how the Zionists think they’ll be able to manipulate and propagandize the world into liking Israel again. Yeah, saturate all online platforms with weird-faced influencers telling us Israel is awesome. That’ll make us forget those years of genocidal atrocities. Sure, buy up the social media platforms that young people are using so you...

Gilbert Doctorow is a thoughtful and well-informed commentator on the challenges with which the West confronts Putin. In his most recent postings, he asks and answers the questions, “What do the Russians think of Putin? Does his war of attrition strategy today enjoy support? Or do Russians want to end the War as quickly as...
