Was Saudi Arabia’s Assassination inspired by N. Korea, Israel, Russia or US?

John Feffer

(Foreign Policy in Focus) – Saudi Arabia’s apparent assassination of Jamal Khashoggi might have taken inspiration from Russia and North Korea — or Israel and the United States. Russia, North Korea, and Saudi Arabia are the latest members of a select international club. Assassins Without Borders has roots that go back, in the modern era […]

Complicit, Sidelined, Compromised: The American Elite is not Going to Save You From Trump

John Feffer

(Tomdispatch.com) – During a lifetime of make-believe, Donald Trump has never pretended to be a conventional politician. When he finally decided to make a serious bid for office, he built his presidential aspirations on the flimsiest of foundations: a wild conspiracy theory about Barack Obama’s birthplace.

John Feffer

Washington, DC (Foreign Policy in Focus) – Russian money saved Trump when his projects were on the verge of collapse. Will it now be the cause of his political demise? Marty Byrde has a problem. His partner at the financial services firm has been skimming off the top of the money-laundering service they’re providing a […]

Is Trump finishing the Job that Bin Laden Began?

John Feffer

Washington, D.C. (Tomdispatch.com) – As presidencies approach their midpoints, pundits begin the inevitable search for that elusive creature: the doctrine. It’s often a quixotic quest, since presidents rarely boil down their foreign-policy visions — if they even have them — to some pithy essence. Then there’s Donald Trump. Conjuring up the current president’s foreign-policy doctrine […]

World to 22 mn Refugees: Only 200K of You can be Helped

John Feffer

Donald Trump is at the forefront of this scandalously cruel approach to refugees. But he’s not alone.
