No Wonder China is Nervous as Obama Pivots

By F. William Engdahl
Publish date: 22 November, 2012

The looming confrontation will be even harsher that the previous ones. U.S. forces have been withdrawing from Europe and disengaging from the Middle East. They are currently clustering around China and developing a ballistic missile shield which - should it actually prove effective some day - would enable Washington to strike Beijing without fear of reprisal...

Syria, Turkey, Israel and a Greater Middle East Energy War

By F. William Engdahl
Publish date: 12 October, 2012

Despite the miscarriage of NATO's secret military operation against Syria, withdrawal by the West stumbles on two issues. Can Washington and its allies refrain from grabbing the Syrian gas reserves? And can they leave Syria in the position of being the only state in the region which escapes the control of the Muslim Brotherhood?... Click here to continue reading

Salafism+CIA: The winning formula to destabilize Russia, the Middle East

By F. William Engdahl
Publish date: 13 September, 2012

The assassination of the most respected Sufi religious leader in Dagestan, Russia's volatile Caucasus, comes as Salafist jihadists in Libya murder a US Ambassador who was actually a key player in ousting Gaddafi and bringing the Salafist Muslim Brotherhood and Jihadists into power. Throughout the entire Islamic world today, a wave of hate is being unleashed in the name of Islamic fundamentalism that could bring a new world war. This is the consequence of the Greater Middle East Project put in play in 2010 and earlier by the Washington-London-Tel Aviv axis. Manipulating religious fervor is an explosive cocktail as F. William Engdahl shows here... Click here to continue reading

Obama's Geopolitical China Pivot

Obama's Geopolitical China 'Pivot'

By F. William Engdahl
Publish date: 23 August, 2012

With little fanfare Barack Obama late last year announced a "strategic pivot" in US defense policy to focus on the Pacific, bolstered by "Coalition of the willing" Australia. It is all about emerging China as an economic colossus with a mind all its own. The US military has been steadily positioning itself along the strategic sea lanes surrounding China to deal potentially deadly blows to the mainland as well as cutting off its oil corridors to the Middle East and Africa. This author breaks down a situation where the noose tightening around China could generate a major new conflict zone in the not too distant future. ..... Click here to continue reading

Putin's Geopolitical Chess Game with Washington in Syria and Eurasia

Putin's Geopolitical Chess Game with Washington in Syria and Eurasia

By F. William Engdahl
Publish date: 23 July, 2012

For blocking a UN resolution that could have led to military intervention in Syria, Russia has been accused by the Orwellian West of putting its national interests ahead of the lives of millions of Syrians. By scrutinizing Vladimir Putin's actions since his reelection, William Engdahl shows that Russia is indeed pursuing her national interests which are best served by fostering a just and peaceful world environment and by thwarting the US-Israeli agenda for a Greater Middle East....

Death of the Birds and the Bees Across America

Death of the Birds and the Bees Across America

By F. William Engdahl
Publish date: 5 July, 2012

Birds and bees are something most of us take for granted as part of nature. The expression "teaching about the birds and the bees" to explain the process of human reproduction to young people is not an accidental expression. Bees and birds contribute to the essence of life on our planet. A study by the US Department of Agriculture estimated that "…perhaps one-third of our total diet is dependent, directly or indirectly, upon insect-pollinated plants."1...

Shale gas: Halliburton's weapon of mass devastation

Shale gas: Halliburton's weapon of mass devastation

By F. William Engdahl
Publish date: 17 May, 2012

Across the United States the exploitation of gas and oil from shale rocks using Halliburton's hydraulic fracturing technology continues amid rising disasters. Unregulated drilling practices, rendered legal by the "Halliburton Loophole" engineered in 2005 by Vice President Dick Cheney, have had staggering health and environmental effects. Lured by the prospect of reducing oil dependence, President Obama has adopted an ambivalent approach, which ultimately yields ground to industry. With the same expectancy, countries all around the world have joined the shale-gas craze, arguing that if the U.S. has been "fracking" it must be safe. Energy independence would undoubtedly represent a game changing opportunity for many countries, but at what cost?.. Click here to continue reading

China's Land Bridge to Turkey creates new Eurasian Geopolitical Potentials

China's Land Bridge to Turkey creates new Eurasian Geopolitical Potentials

By F. William Engdahl
Publish date: 23 April, 2012

The prospect of an unparalleled Eurasian economic boom has been further solidified following recent talks between Turkish and Chinese leaders. The first steps are being constructed with a number of little-publicized rail links envisioned to connect China and parts of Western Europe. It is increasingly clear to all nations concerned, especially China and Russia, that their natural tendency to develop these markets faces only one major hurdle: NATO and the US Pentagon's Full Spectrum Dominance obsession. According to Engdahl, rail infrastructure is a major geopolitical tool for obviating that obstacle... Click here to continue reading

Washington's bizarre Kosovo strategy could destroy NATO

Washington's bizarre Kosovo strategy could destroy NATO

By F. William Engdahl
Publish date: 12 April, 2012

Not satisfied with having sponsored the artificial creation of Kosovo, the United States has now decided to ram the mafia state through NATO and the European Union. A new member with such characteristics is the last thing that Europe needs right now. However, it should work wonders for the consolidation of U.S. political and military agenda in the region, not to speak of the flourishing heroin trade from Afghanistan...both of which, as Engdahl points out in this sharp analysis, pose a threat to Russia and may backfire in the end...

Uganda: the hidden agenda behind "Kony 2012" video

By F. William Engdahl
Publish date: 26 March, 2012

While few would criticize putting indicted Ugandan war criminal Joseph Kony in prison, the motives and timing of the viral video campaign launched by an NGO with an angelic sounding name are less clear. Invisible Children has blurred the line between charity and politics, advocating direct military action. What is clear to this author is that "Kony2012" is 'manipulative propaganda being used to advance an AFRICOM military presence in the richest mineral region in the world' before China stakes a claim to it. The battle for Africa has only just begun. ..... Click here to continue reading

Behind Oil Price Rise: Peak Oil or Wall Street Speculation?

Behind Oil Price Rise: Peak Oil or Wall Street Speculation?

By F. William Engdahl
Publish date: 18 March, 2012

While the drop in oil demand and enhaced production should be pulling prices down, fuel has never been more expensive. Engdahl dismisses explanations linked to saber-rattling and the peak oil theory. He points instead an accusing finger at oil price speculation and manipulation by Wall Street banks, with the collusion of the Government Agency which should be regulating their activities but whose chairman - a "former" Goldman Sachs asset - has conveniently been asleep at the wheel...

Rising energy tensions in the Aegean Sea

By F. William Engdahl
Publish date: 6 March, 2012

After the Eastern Mediterranean, this author focuses on the gas and oil windfall in the Aegean sea, which promises to fiercely shake up the geopolitical landscape. In the case of Greece, while new-found reserves could potentially blot out her entire debt, and possibly have even averted it, the foreign patrons of this de-sovereignized state have very different plans. Hillary Clinton, for one, was quick to turn up in Athens to dictate her terms on behalf of U.S. (and Bill's) energy interests in the region, not least that of antagonizing Russia....

According to Major General Luo Yuan, member of the Academy of Military Sciences of the People's Republic of China, the US ultimatum to Syria has backfired on Washington.

Israel's Levant Basin—a new geopolitical curse?

Israel's Levant Basin—a new geopolitical curse?

By F. William Engdahl
Publish date: 20 February, 2012

A recent major oil and gas find is bound to change dramatically the geopolitical equation in the Eastern Mediterranean region and beyond. To start with, it has sent Israel from rags to riches in terms of energy independence and security. However, Lebanon contends that part of the gas field lies within its territorial waters, and Washington happens to agree. Engdahl explores the implications of this key development, which have already rippled into the U.S. electoral scene, with Netanyahu betting on Republican race horses against Obama...

The Geopolitical Stakes in Nigeria: The Curious Role of the IMF

By F. William Engdahl
Publish date: 28 January, 2012

The United States is continuing its penetration and stranglehold of Africa one country after another, while attempting to keep China at bay. As Nigeria spirals into instability, historian and geopolitical analyst F. William Engdahl argues that a recent government decision to lift subsidies on imported fuel in the oil-rich nation bears the hallmarks of Washington Consensus shock therapy, packaged and personally delivered by IMF's new managing director...

Putin a thorn in Washingtons Flesh

Putin, a thorn in Washington's flesh

By F. William Engdahl
Publish date: 9 January, 2012

Vladimir Putin is one of the few world leaders capable of rattling the foundations of U.S. hegemony: military dominance and the dollar's supremacy as reserve currency. Engdahl shows that the recent election protests in Russia were orchestrated by Washington-sponsored NGOs and their domestic agents in an unsuccessful attempt to destabilize the country. With the rapid erosion of U.S. global dominance, Engdahl warns that the neutralization of Russia and other recalcitrant states will again be on the agenda of the next White House occupant....
