Global Humanity Warns the Pharaohs of War for Consequences
Mahboob A. Khawaja: Discarding the creed of optimism, We, the People realize there is much evil and much good in our encompassing imagination of the world. Our expectations turned sour that responsible leaders such as the UNO, Western world and other global institutions of peace and security would flout their role-play with distressed timidness and ignorance of prevalent reality in global humanitarian affairs. There is no fair role model of truthful characteristics of these leaders in doing their jobs to safeguard the entrenched humanity and future generations “from the scourge of war.” They utter hollow speeches and fake claims of serving peace and humanity.

Palestine Holocaust

Trump’s “1984”-Like Vision for a New World Order
ALFRED W. MCCOY: Amid a torrent of confusing, often contradictory foreign policy pronouncements pouring forth almost daily from the Trump White House, the overall design of his de facto geopolitical strategy has taken shape with surprising speed. Instead of maintaining mutual-security alliances like NATO, President Trump seems to prefer a globe divided into three major regional blocs, each headed by an empowered leader like himself — with Russia dominating its European periphery, China paramount in Asia, and the United States controlling, in a version of fortress America, all of North America (including, of course, the Panama Canal). Reflecting what his defense secretary called a “loathing of European freeloading” and his administration’s visceral disdain for the European Union, Trump is pursuing that tricontinental strategy at the expense of the traditional trans-Atlantic alliance, embodied by NATO, that has been the foundation for American foreign policy since the start of the Cold War.
