From Srebrenica and Racak to Benghazi and Homs
31 March 2012 | Humanitarian wars are a modern form of imperialism. The standard pattern that the United States and its allies use to execute them is one where genocide and ethnic cleansing are alleged by a coalition of governments, media organizations, and non-governmental front organizations which are preceded by sanctions, isolation, and military intervention. This is the post-Cold War modus operandi of the United States and NATO.

Pakistan: The NATO aggression
6 December 2011 | Why are we deluding ourselves? This lethal NATO helicopters’ attack on two Pakistani border posts couldn’t be an “accident”, as the command of coalition forces in Afghanistan would have it believed. This was a naked aggression, plain and simple, deliberate and planned.

NATO is an outlaw, the International Criminal Court is its accomplice
3 July 2011 | The International Criminal Court at The Hague (ICC) is a pariah in the world of Justice and International Law; those who work for it are traitors to their cause, the Institution itself is an insult to every fibre of civilisation and a knife in the back of the notion that the law prevails and is applied without bias.

Moscow moves to counter NATO
13 December 2010 | Many people wouldn’t know that former United States president Ronald Reagan’s signature phrase "trust, but verify" is actually the translation of a Russian proverb - doveryai, no proveryai. Two decades into the post-Cold War era, Moscow wants to reclaim the self-contradictory phrase from the American repertoire and apply it to Russia’s "reset" of ties with the United States.

Israeli Murders, NATO and Afghanistan
7 June 2010 | The Israeli attack on the high seas against a vessel flying a Turkish flag has ignited a crisis within NATO: the Alliance failed in its mission by not coming to the rescue of Turkey. From there, Craig Murray observes, it is legitimate to ask whether NATO is really a defensive alliance and if its costly commitment in Afghanistan is justifiable.

When Israel joins NATO

EU, NATO, US: 21st Century Alliance For Global Domination
4 April 2009 | The 60th anniversary summit of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization was held in France and Germany on April 3 and 4. Eighteen years after the end of the Cold War, NATO has increased its membership to 26 countries, mostly European including numerous former Soviet republics. In Afghanistan NATO is waging its first armed conflict outside of Europe and its first ground war with the participation of armed units from all 26 NATO member states under US commandment. Rizoff debunks the myth that the EU was to act as a counterweight to the US in Europe, and examines the role of NATO-EU-US military integration basically as an instrument for attaining imperial geopolitical objectives involving the encirclement of Russia.

Diana Johnstone: NATO’s Global Mission Creep
13 March 2009 | NATO, the main overseas arm of the U.S. military-industrial complex, just keeps expanding. Its original raison d’être, the supposedly menacing Soviet bloc, has been dead for twenty years. But like the military-industrial complex itself, NATO is kept alive and growing by entrenched economic interests, institutional inertia and an official mindset resembling paranoia, with think tanks looking around desperately for “threats”.
