The Serbian high command that organized the human safaris in Bosnia was a CIA agent

The emerging reports about the "human safaris" in Sarajevo during the Bosnian War point to Jovica Stanisic as "the Serbian officer in charge of organizing the trips for the wealthy snipers." In fact, the investigation by the Milanese judiciary identifies Stanisic as the coordinator of these trips under the guise of "hunting excursions."
But who exactly is Jovica Stanisic? The media are simply reporting that he is the former head of Serbia's State Security Directorate (SDB), and that he was sentenced in 2023 to 15 years in prison for crimes committed in seven municipalities of Bosnia and Herzegovina. But if we investigate further and examine the documents from his trial, we discover that behind the high-ranking official under Milošević, what was actually lurking was a CIA agent.

A Nobel Prize winner in war uniform

When the Nobel Committee decided to award the Nobel Peace Prize to María Corina Machado, it chose to call "peace" what, in the South, we know as intervention and tutelage. It awarded it to a person who for years has placed herself at the disposal of a foreign power to promote a coup d'état in her own country. Someone who has even called, even in international forums, for foreign military intervention in the genocidal State of Israel, and who, in the midst of the devastation of Gaza, defends the Zionist entity with the grammar of "self-defense."

The business of genocide: there are no limits to capitalism when it comes to making money

I'm sure many of the people who read my articles have heard about the latest report by the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967, Francesca Albanese, published last June.

However, I want to return to activity after the summer break, echoing it for three important reasons. First, because we must continue to denounce and combat what I believe is a true crime against humanity, committed by Israel against the Palestinian people and with the complicity of the great powers that dominate the world.

Still from the film 'City of Life and Death', which recounts the Nanjing Massacre.

In China, the commemoration of the 80th anniversary of the global victory over fascism reminds us of the enormous sacrifice endured by this country in its long struggle against the Japanese invader. The Japanese invasion of the 30s and 40s, marked by atrocities such as the Nanjing Massacre (1937), subjected China to unimaginable cruelty.
nable. According to the most recent estimates, military and civilian casualties exceeded 35 million people in a battle that lasted 14 years. More than any other country involved in the conflict. This suffering added considerable difficulties to the reconstruction work promoted by the new power established in 1949.

Side…. which side?

The barrage of criticism surrounding Pedro Sánchez's recent trip to China has been surprising. They say it's not "our side," that "there's more to Asia" than China (although the mission also included Vietnam), that the timing couldn't have been worse... However, the trip was a complete success, both in terms of the current situation and the expectations it met, judging by the official assessment provided by Moncloa.

And which side are we on? That of Mr. "Neckcutter," who assigns unavoidable duties to Minister Cuerpo? Or that of Robert Palladino, chargé d'affaires of the US Embassy in Hungary, who has warned the Hungarian government to refrain from attracting Chinese investment?

Germany will be the first country where a former BlackRock official becomes head of government. Friedrich Merz was not a "lobbyist," as is often described. He not only received a salary, but also held a leadership role within the group: the CDU politician was Chairman of the Supervisory Board of the subsidiary BlackRock Asset Management Deutschland Aktiengesellschaft from 2016 to 2020. He reported to the New York headquarters of the largest capital organizer in the Western world, led by the United States. Merz was tasked with driving BlackRock's expansion in Germany.

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez is traveling to China again to meet with President Xi Jinping. This is his third visit in the last three years, a truly unusual development and a true reflection of the importance that the Spanish government places on its relationship with China, as an expression of a significant rebalancing of Spanish foreign policy based on the strategic interest of strengthening economic and diplomatic relations with Beijing.

Romania's Central Election Bureau (CEB), the institution responsible for ensuring the security of the national elections, has finally announced: Călin Georgescu will not be able to run as a candidate for the presidential elections on May 4.

The vote to elect the new head of state in Romania was due to take place at the end of last year, but the Constitutional Court decided to annul the results of the first round of elections, held in November, and to have them repeated in 2025.
