North Korea has now demonstrated the ability to strike nearly every major city in the United States with either a nuclear warhead or a high-altitude EMP weapon. At risk are hundreds of millions of Americans who would find themselves at very high risk of being killed in the aftermath of an EMP attack due to mass starvation, social unrest and the spread of disease. In this video lecture, I cover the facts about North Korea’s current  nuclear capability , explaining how the regime is now able to deliver large, weaponized payloads over very long distances. Because of this shocking advancement in North Korea’s technology — combined with Kim Jong-Un’s repeated threats to nuke specific U.S. cities — all Americans are now in the crosshairs of a nuclear-capable madman who leads a national cult of delusional followers. Even worse, we’re running out of options. Diplomacy has never worked with North Korea, and economic sanctions aren’t halting nuclear weapons development. The only rem...

On November 30, the Yemeni Missile Forces loyal to the Houthis announced that it has tasted a new medium range ballistic missile. According to the statement a Saudi Army military base was successfully targeted with the missile as part of the test. However, Colonel Turki al-Maliki spokesman for the Saudi-led coalition in Yemen announced that the Royal Saudi Air Defense (RSADF) had successfully intersepted the ballistic missile over the city of Khamis Mushait in southern Saudi Arabia, only 110km away from the border with Yemen. A video published by Saudi activists showed the RSADF firing at least one MIM-104 Patriot air defense missile from a position in Khamis Mushait to intercept the Houthis ballistic missile.

The Houthis had launched dozens of ballistic missiles against Saudi Arabia since the beginning of ...

Written by  The Saker  for  The Unz Review I am often asked if the US and Russia will go to war with each other. I always reply that they are already at war. Not a war like WWII, but a war nonetheless. This war is, at least for the time being, roughly 80% informational, 15% economic and 5% kinetic. But in political terms the outcome for the loser of this war will be no less dramatic than the outcome of WWII was for Germany: the losing country will not survive it, at least not in its present shape: either Russia will become a US colony again or the AngloZionist Empire will collapse. In my very first column for the Unz review entitled “ A Tale of Two World Orders ” I described the kind of multipolar international system regulated by the rule of law Russia, China and their allies and friends (whether overt or covert) worldwide are trying to build and how dramatically different it was from the single World Hegemony and AngloZionist attempted to establish worldwide (and a...
