I have found the founding document of all the evils foisted on the world by Tony Bliar and Bill Cliton! The author, Robert Cooper was Bliar's adviser and amongst numerous jaw-dropping statements is this:

"The challenge to the postmodern world is to get used to the idea of double standards. Among ourselves, we operate on the basis of laws and open cooperative security. But when dealing with more old-fashioned kinds of states outside the postmodern continent of Europe, we need to revert to the rougher methods of an earlier era - force, pre-emptive attack, deception, whatever is necessary to deal with those who still live in the nineteenth century world of every state for itself. Among ourselves, we keep the law but when we are operating in the jungle, we must also use the laws of the jungle."

Since Mr Cooper is a citizen of the UK where people are locked up for thought crime presumably he is liable to a lengthy spell behind bars!

My fellow Duranians
I apologize for taking so long to get this done, last week Thursday we had a live, as you know with Daniel McAdams and therefore I didn´t get around to completing my work.

ALEX CHRISTOFOROU: The Ukraine war will have a military outcome | The Weight of Chains Podcast 003
Join Alexander Mercouris Live Stream Today 26th November 2025 at 14:00 EST, 19:00 London time

We are looking at the most chaotic negotiation I have ever seen as part of the Trump administration races to cobble together a 'peace plan' which Moscow will accept, staving off Ukraine's impending collapse, even as the neocons, the US Deep State, the Unholy Trinity of Macron-Starmer-Merz, the EU Commission, and the Zelensky regime, pull out all the stops to block them.

So we are back to the old game of leaks, insinuations, intrigues and threats, those of us who covered Russiagate remember very well.

It is no help that the key people who are trying to cobble together the 'peace plan' - Witkoff, Kushner and by the way Trump himself - are amateurs with no professional training or background in diplomacy. So the result is that we have multiple different versions of the 'peace plan' floating around, each of them apparently saying different things on important points.

Meanwhile the Russians watch and wait, with the circus apparently due to come to Moscow next week, even as their army ...

WASHINGTON, Nov. 26 (Xinhua) -- Two U.S. National Guard members died after they were shot near the White House on Wednesday, and a suspect is in custody, according to local authorities.

West Virginia Governor Patrick Morrisey said in a post on X that both members of the West Virginia National Guard have passed away from their injuries. "We are in ongoing contact with federal officials as the investigation continues," he added.

"West Virginia will never forget their service or their sacrifice, and we will demand full accountability for this horrific act," Morrisey said.

A quick commentary on the "Piss Summit"
I might not be able to upload much more or do lives for a while

My Fellow Duranianss.

Yes, it's happened again. I have been assaulted by a vicious Malware Bot Virus or whatever 911 Socks is and this thing is bad ! 

However I wanted to give you a "peace" of my mind concerning the "Piece" or piss, as Elensky calls it, as this thing fell to pieces before it even happened.

Coincidentally on the very SAME DAY  this crap happened Saudi Arabia DROPPED the US Petrodollar as a buying currency and NO ONE absolutely NO ONE is talking about this fact anywhere !!!

 

Hope to see you all asap.
