The city of Krakow in Poland has christened a strip of sidewalk near the Russian consulate ‘Free Ukraine Square’. The gesture comes after several other Polish cities renamed plazas for Ukraine, but Russia has indulged in some creative renaming of its own.

Krakow Mayor Jacek Majchrowski officially named the square – which consists of a small area of tiles and trees beside a parking lot – in a ceremony on Monday. 

“By opening this square, we want to show that we are with you … as you fight for your freedom and ours,” said Majchrowski....

 Biden’s Mideast Tour de Farce… Bankrupt U.S. Foreign Policy on Display
Strategic Culture Foundation (RSS)

Biden’s top and only priority is to shore up a failing U.S. policy of aggression toward Russia, China and Iran.

In a desperate attempt to align Middle Eastern states against Russia, China and Iran, President Joe Biden this week demonstrated with a tour de force – more accurately “tour de farce” – the humongous scale of U.S. hypocrisy and political bankruptcy.

The stench of Washington’s hypocrisy and duplicity was at once stomach-churning while also farcical.

Biden made his first presidential visit to the Middle East during a four-day itinerary that began in Israel and ended in Saudi Arabia. It was obvious from even U.S. media reporting that the overriding top priority for Biden was to get the Gulf Arab states to pump more oil in order to reduce the repercussions from the U.S.-led NATO proxy war with Russia in Ukraine.

American economic sanctions against Russia, dutifully supported by the servile European Union and other NATO allies, have unleashed a global crisis of inflation. That, in turn, is resulting in all sorts of political tensions and perils for Western governments.

Make no mistake, the conflict in Ukraine has been engineered over the past eight years since the U.S.-backed coup d’état in Kiev in 2014. Biden was then vice president and the point man in the Obama administration for the NATO weaponizing of a Nazi-infested Kiev regime to act as a cat’s paw antagonizing Russia.

Now that the U.S.-led proxy war with Russia has fully manifested, the economic consequences have rebounded with immense pain. With inflation skyrocketing in the United States and Europe, the political impact is undermining incumbent governments. This week saw Italy’s coalition rulers falling down. Last week, Britain’s Boris Johnson became a victim of his corruption and his nation’s economic turmoil. In the U.S., Biden’s Democratic Party is heading for a voter bashing in the midterm elections. Americans, like Europeans, are outraged by the soaring price of fuel, food and other basic commodities.

For Biden, and the U.S. political establishment, getting the spiraling cost inflation of fuel and energy under control is of vital urgency. The social crisis being engendered is threatening to collapse the governing structures. It is no wonder this week that a new poll found that the majority of American voters think that their political system is failing. In short, we are talking about unprecedented civil unrest that is posing an existential threat to the political class in the United States and indeed Europe.

Hence, Biden’s visit to the Middle East was in effect an appeal to Saudi Arabia and other regional countries to pump up the exports of oil as a way to reduce record market prices and crippling consumer inflation. It’s unlikely that that tenuous tactic will succeed in obtaining the desired relief. The genie is out of the bottle and there’s hardly any way to put it back.

The unseemly show of pleading by Biden illustrates the rank hypocrisy of U.S. policy. Washington has no genuine, principled interest in promoting a peace process in Israel with Palestinians, nor a normalization between Arab states and Israel. Biden’s top and only priority is to shore up a failing U.S. policy of aggression toward Russia, China and Iran.

This American president...
