Europeans are storming the streets in unprecedented numbers to protest NATO’s proxy war in Ukraine and their own declining living standards. The Grayzone has covered demonstrations and interviewed protest leaders in several countries since the war erupted.   by Stavroula Pabst and Max Blumenthal   Part 5 - The view from Greece: “Americans are the killers of the people”   As the conservative Mitsotakis government bends over backwards to please Washington, average Greek citizens struggle with impossibly high living expenses and energy bills. Protesters I spoke with in Athens on February reflexively linked their government’s support for NATO’s proxy war with their own eroding living conditions. Their anger is widespread throughout a country where anti-NATO and anti-EU sentiment remains relatively high. Banners at the February 21 protest denounced US Secretary of State Blinken, while slogans like “Solidarity is the peoples’ gun!”, and “They killed Lambrakis and Beloyiannis — Americans are

The Grayzone   The Grayzone 's Max Blumenthal and Aaron Mate discuss the recent trip to Saudi Arabia by CIA director William Burns amid Chinese-brokered peace talks between the Saudis and Iran, and the waning influence of the US over the global economy.

The Jimmy Dore Show   Florida GOP Senator Marco Rubio took note of the announcement that a number of nations around the globe, including some very powerful ones, are planning to go off the petrodollar and use other currencies as international mediums of exchange. If that happens, Rubio observes, the United States will lose virtually all its ability to threaten and otherwise terrorize “rogue” states with economic sanctions. 

Classified Pentagon documents containing information about US and NATO plans for a Ukrainian offensive and key details of the ongoing war have leaked. And the Biden administration is reportedly demanding they be scrubbed from the internet. Is there a hidden agenda behind the leak?  by Alexander Rubinstein Part 1 The New York Times has reported “ a significant breach of American intelligence in the effort to aid Ukraine ” through the leak of classified documents which have been shared on social media. It correspondents cited “ senior Biden administration officials ” who apparently tipped the outlet off to the story. Documents circulating on Telegram which closely resemble those referred to by the Times are reproduced at the end of this article. The Times writes, “ Military analysts said the documents appear to have been modified in certain parts from their original format, overstating American estimates of Ukrainian war dead and understating estimates of Russian troops killed. The mo

Report by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the People’s Republic of China   Part 5 - Technological Hegemony / Monopoly and Suppression   The United States seeks to deter other countries' scientific, technological and economic development by wielding monopoly power, suppression measures and technology restrictions in high-tech fields. ◆ The United States monopolizes intellectual property in the name of protection. Taking advantage of the weak position of other countries, especially developing ones, on intellectual property rights and the institutional vacancy in relevant fields, the United States reaps excessive profits through monopoly. In 1994, the United States pushed forward the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS), forcing the Americanized process and standards in intellectual property protection in an attempt to solidify its monopoly on technology. In the 1980s, to contain the development of Japan's semiconductor industry, the United

failed evolution   On 11 April 2019, the Ecuadorian government of traitor Lenin Moreno, invited the Metropolitan Police into the Ecuadorian embassy in London, and they arrested Julian Assange . Since then, Assange is kept in Belmarsh high security prison in London, without actual charges.   The real reason world's number one political prisoner is still kept in this high security prison, is because he exposed horrendous war crimes carried out by the US imperialists and their allies.   The ruthless Western imperialist regime wants to punish the No1 real journalist in the world and make him an example for any Whistleblower or real journalist who will attempt to expose its big crimes in the future.   And the Anglo-American axis has now become officially a fascist coalition , framed by the rest of its Western pets. UK's Home Secretary Priti Patel, one of the most ruthless ever, decided to extradite Julian Assange to US. No surprise of course. The only question we had in mind is

Comment of the day   Finland has just made the biggest mistake in its history by joining world's biggest criminal organization: NATO.   By siding with the US imperialists, Finland blows up the benefits of the neutrality status that helped the country become one of the most prosperous and advanced in the European continent.    The country enters now a dark uncertain path, leading to an unstable future as it will have to spend way more money on its military. This will force Finland to cut spending on sectors that helped the country build one of the most advanced social states for the benefit of its citizens. Being member of NATO next to the Russian borders, Finland's key infrastructure will become instantly the number one target for Russian missiles.   The political system of Finland put in great danger the entire future of the country by obeying to the US imperialists, sacrificing the country for their own interests.  

Some of the most incendiary accusations made against Iran’s government by corporate media, celebrity influencers and Western leaders in the past months are little more than fabrications. And most remain uncorrected.   by Setareh Sadeqi and Christopher Weaver   Part 10 - A NATO think tanker’s “rent-a-crowds”   Barbara Slavin, the former director of the “Future of Iran Initiative” at the NATO and Saudi-sponsored Atlantic Council, claimed the massive rallies held across Iran in support of the government represented “ rent-a-crowds ” filled with desperate people “ promised free lunch to chant these tired slogans ”.  The notion that the ranks of pro-government rallies are inflated due to the enticement of free, government-distributed drinks or snacks is an ongoing trope repeated in legacy media since Iran’s revolution in 1979. What is never mentioned, however, is that at large public gatherings, it is common for individuals to offer drinks and food as a way of showing hospitality and religi
