Paul Craig Roberts: why did democracy fail in the United States?
Written By Paul Craig Roberts
Throughout my life, what I have noticed is that Republicans define patriotism mainly in terms of opposing foreign enemies. This was most pronounced during the long cold war with the Soviet Union. It is certainly true that we should be on guard against foreign enemies, but we must not be so on guard to create enemies where there are none or refuse to defuse tensions and replace hostile relations with cooperative ones as President John F. Kennedy once did. Kennedy said he intended to do so before he was assassinated and as President Trump intended to do so before the Russia accusation prevented him.

Paul Craig Roberts: the possibility of nuclear war is awfully high
The Biden regime's Secretary of state, Blinken, has blocked talks between Russia and Ukraine, saying the goal of US policy is to drive Russia out of its reclaimed territories, including Crimea.
Biden's statement that the U.S. will use nuclear weapons against non-nuclear threats, as well as the knowledge that U.S. nuclear weapons are deployed near Russia, force Putin to drop his promise not to use nuclear weapons first.
In other words, unlike the Cold War at 20. for centuries, today there is a trigger for nuclear war. People who say nuclear war is impossible because there would be no winner don't know what they're talking about. Wars are the product of people, and people are emotional and stupid. They're making too many mistakes. That's how people work.
Dragana Trifkovic: Republicans are likely to take control of Congress and Senate after November elections
In the USA 8. in November, elections are held for the House of Representatives and a third of the Senate. Most American voters consider this election extremely important for the future of the country. The elections are held halfway through President Biden's term, whose popularity is very low. In large part, by voting in the upcoming elections, voters will assess President Biden's previous work, which represents the politics of the Democratic Party. Society in America is polarized, and the atmosphere is quite tense due to Great Discontent. According to Reuters and Ipsos surveys in August this year, as many as 69% of Americans think the state is going in the wrong direction. First of all, Americans are unhappy with the economic situation, which is problematic in terms of high inflation, which continues to grow, resulting in high prices of energy and food. On the other hand, the US central bank (Federal Reserve) is constantly raising interest rates, making it difficult to buy homes, cars and other goods. President Biden failed to improve the economic situation after the pandemic, which was one of the election promises. This factor may play a decisive role in how voters will vote.

Reborn Russia
After the dissolution of the USSR in 1991, Russia and Russian studies including Russian language, culture and history became for a long time not very popular fields of study as well as occupations in the West compared to the Cold War (1949).−1989.
