With The New Atlas - Angelo Giuliano with Brian Berletic - the latest geo-politics ... Bonus film - Daniel Dumbrill in conversation with Danny Haiphong ... Western media is merely propaganda - with The Grayzone ... A rationale for subjugation - of those abroad, and you at home.

On how the transition to multi-polarity is as dangerous as it is welcome (and inevitable) ...
