Whose Grain Is Being Shipped from Ukraine?

America’s GMO Agribusiness Giants to Take Control of Ukraine Farmland

by F. William Engdahl*

(19 September 2022) A great humanitarian uproar in recent weeks demanding the safe shipping of Ukrainian grain to ease a hunger crisis in Africa and elsewhere is deceptive on many levels.

Not the least is who owns the land on which the grain is grown and whether that grain is actually illegal GMO patented corn and other grains.

The West’s False Narrative about Russia and China

by Jeffrey D. Sachs,* USA

(21 September 2022) The world is on the edge of nuclear catastrophe in no small part because of the failure of Western political leaders to be forthright about the causes of the escalating global conflicts.

The relentless Western narrative that the West is noble while Russia and China are evil is simple-minded and extraordinarily dangerous. It is an attempt to manipulate public opinion, not to deal with very real and pressing diplomacy.

For the implementation of a new multipolar world order without war

by Stefan Hofer,* Basel

(19 September 2022) After the collapse of the Soviet Union and the European socialist states, after the dissolution of the Warsaw Pact and the Council for Mutual Economic Assistance (CMEA),1 the power elites in the West triumphed that the capitalist market economy and the Western system of states controlling it, dominated by the USA, had finally prevailed in the system competition with the socialist world, thereby defeating socialism. The end of history had already been proclaimed.

Is Karl May’s Winnetou a “cultural appropriation”?

by Marita Brune-Koch

(19 September 2022) The “Ravensburger Verlag” has removed books by Karl May from its program. The reason: Karl May was accused of “cultural appropriation” as well as of trivialising the suffering of the indigenous American population, of trivialising the colonisation of America and the oppression and extermination of the native peoples there. The “Karl May Publishing House” contradicts the accusations and keeps the books in its program.
