Remember the Scythians

ScythiansIran as a SCO protagonist and at the center of the New Silk Roads restores it to a rightful historic role. By the middle of the first millennium B.C., Northern Iranians ruled the core of the steppes in Central Eurasia. By that time the Scythians had migrated into the Western steppe, while other steppe Iranians made inroads as far away as China.

Scythians – a Northern (or “East”) Iranian people – were not necessarily just fierce warriors. That’s a crude stereotype. Very few in the West know that the Scythians developed a sophisticated trade system, as described by Herodotus among others, linking Greece, Persia and China. Continue reading

Iran Conflict or More Tariffs, Russia Hoaxsters Prosecuted, Fed Lost Control [Video]

tariffsGreg Hunter – Is America going to have a conflict with Iran? It looks like it is not. Trump is going to increase the already stiff tariffs on that Persian Gulf nation. One sure sign that is true is former National Security Advisor John Bolton is reportedly upset the U.S. will not be bombing Iran over the drone attack on Saudi Arabia oil installations.

Will the Russian collusion hoaxsters, such as James Comey and Andrew McCabe, ever be prosecuted in the seditious acts they committed on President Trump? More reports are coming out from DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz that are making it increasingly hard to ignore the malfeasance of many top government officials in making up a totally fake story to try to remove President Trump from office. It did not work. Continue reading

Those “Superweapons” And What I’m Not Talking About

super weaponsJoseph P Farrell – There’s something in the news that I’m not going to talk about, because quite frankly, I’m sick of politics. And that’s the attack on the oilfield in the (out)House of Saud. I’m not going to talk about it because while driving around yesterday morning and listening to the news, most of the consensus emerging was pointing the finger to Iran.

Now, I’m not surprised, but I’m not going to talk about the nut cases running that country, nor about how I wouldn’t put it past them. Nor am I going to talk about my profound distrust of the American creep state, which would do just about anything to create false flags to get us into another war, nor am I going to talk about the problems of such a strike raising the price of oil, and therefore not only putting the West in a crimp, but also Tehran’s close ally China.

I’m not going to talk about that being a reason to question the “logic” behind the attack. As I say, I put nothing past the nutcases in Tehran, nor in Swampington, D.C. Yosemite Sam Bolton (and thanks to K.M. for that comparision!) may be gone, but there’s plenty more cartoon characters to draw from in the neocon stable of cartoon characters.

Iran Should NEVER Have Signed Obama Nuclear Deal

IranSean Adl-Tabatabai – A top Iranian official says the country should never have signed the Obama-era nuclear deal that has now been renounced by President Trump.

In a rare interview with Lester Holt, Ali Shamkhani, a close adviser to Iran’s supreme leader, said there were people in Iran who felt that signing the 2015 nuclear pact, known as the JCPOA, was a big mistake.

Asked by the NBC News presenter if he was one of those people, Shamkhani declared,Yes. … I’m just following the viewpoints of my nation, the people of Iran.” Continue reading

The Role of Iran [Video]

IranAlexandra Bruce – Daniel Estulin, author of In the Shadows of a Presidency joins The Power Hour host, Daniel Brigman to discuss what’s really going on behind the scenes in the world. Estulin spent 24 years in Russian military counterintelligence and he’s not a conspiracy theorist.

I’ve transcribed the first part of this interview, which begins with a discussion of Iran, with a very different telling of 20th century Iranian history than is ever told in the West. An Iranian friend actually brought this clip to my attention, saying that this version was accurate from his point of view.

Daniel Estulin: To untangle the truth about who and what this Iran situation is, we need to look behind me closed doors of the world’s most powerful and prestigious banks, oil companies, industrial corporations and also into the high-rise boardrooms of the elite clubs, such as New York Council on Foreign Relations (the brother organization to the Bilderbergers) [and the] Royal Institute of International Affairs in London… Continue reading
