German Foreign Policy – Der große Krieg
Newsletter – Der große Krieg
(Eigener Bericht) – Vor dem Beginn der Asien-Pazifik-Fahrt der deutschen Fregatte Bayern schwillt unter hochrangigen US-Militärs die Debatte über Form und Zeitpunkt eines möglichen großen Krieges gegen China an. Admiral a.D. James G. Stavridis, Ex-NATO-Oberbefehlshaber und Autor eines aktuellen Romans über einen solchen Krieg, hielt bis vor kurzem den Beginn von Kämpfen im kommenden Jahrzehnt für denkbar. Als mögliche Auslöser gelten die Auseinandersetzungen um Taiwan oder um Inseln im Süd- und im Ostchinesischen Meer. Allerdings verschiebt sich Stavridis zufolge das militärische Kräfteverhältnis zwischen den USA und China rasant, und zwar zugunsten der Volksrepublik, die in Teilbereichen – etwa bei der Anzahl ihrer Kriegsschiffe oder in der Cyberkriegführung – bereits aufgeholt habe. Stavridis warnt mittlerweile, “die Schlacht” zwischen Washington und Beijing könne “viel früher kommen”. Dabei spielten US-Verbündete eine zentrale Rolle; die USA bänden sie gezielt in immer “aggressivere” Operationen etwa im Südchinesischen Meer ein. Zu den erwähnten Verbündeten gehört auch Deutschland.

NATO – SUMMIT MEETING JUNE 2021
by Rae Street The Morning Star, UK based daily paper, published the article today, 10th June Recently, in reporting on the diversion of the Belorussian aircraft, an ITV commentator said of NATO, ‘seen as the world’s policeman’. So let us unpick that phrase. Firstly, ‘the world’s’ and therefore global.

Dangerous US/NATO Expansion in Norway (May 2021 video)
In recent years, the US and NATO have been militarizing the Arctic through Norway as a means to confront Russia. This militarization is increasing tensions between nuclear-armed nations. As the Arctic melts away, these powerful nations are competing for dominance in the region as new routes are established, building new military bases, constructing new radars, and less efforts are placed in diplomacy.

When police officers themselves are responsible for so many cases of gender-based violence and when so many cases are never addressed by the judicial system, what does that say about both the institution of the police, the state and their coercive apparatus?

The state’s role in security has been progressively privatised, from the military to the prison system. The result is a shadowy corporate world in which violence is facilitated, accountability is diminished and human rights violations and impunity abounds.
No business without enemies: War and the arms trade

STATE OF POWER 2021 May 2021
The arms trade is one of the world’s most successful corporate enterprises. Not only has it created an economic system that grows regardless, it has normalised war and security responses to every social crisis.

Europe is a war-games ground for the US / NATO strategy
by Manlio Dinucci In 2020, people’ land mobility in the European Union was paralyzed by lockdowns, mainly following the tourism blockade. The same happened in air mobility: according to a study by the European Parliament (March 2021), it suffered a net loss of 56 billion Euros and 191,000 direct jobs, plus over a million in related industries. In 2021, the recovery is promising to be very problematic. Only one sector has greatly increased its mobility against the ongoing trend: … Continue reading →
