Trump’s Deplorable 9/11 Address by Stephen Lendman (stephenlendman.org – Home – Stephen Lendman) 9/11 was state-sponsored terrorism. The official account of what happened suppressed truth-telling.

Russia Intends Responding in Kind to Further US Provocations by Stephen Lendman (stephenlendman.org – Home – Stephen Lendman) Washington bears full responsibility for dismal bilateral relations.

Former Georgian Despot a Man Without a Country by Stephen Lendman (stephenlendman.org – Home – Stephen Lendman) In 2003, Washington’s color revolution elevated him to power illegitimately.

Security Council Adopts Revised Sanctions on North Korea by Stephen Lendman (stephenlendman.org – Home – Stephen Lendman) Sanctions don’t solve problems. They create greater ones.

Geoengineered Environmental Disasters? by Stephen Lendman (stephenlendman.org – Home – Stephen Lendman) Were Hurricanes Harvey and Irma natural or engineered? It’s unclear.
