By Johannes Stern

http://www.countercurrents.org/stern010914.htm

The European Union summit held in Brussels over the weekend represents a major escalation of the aggression by the Western powers against Russia, raising the specter of full-blown war in Europe and even a nuclear war between NATO and Russia

Who Owns The Nukes If Wall Street Owns The Government?
Maybe it’s Time To Take Back The Government
By Nicholas C. Arguimbau

Paul Craig Roberts is not a fool. He cannot be dismissed lightly when he says the United States and Russia are already at war over the Ukraine, and the US is planning nuclear war, based upon a transparent pretense. He is not alone. Now there are almost daily expressions of concern that the US is positioning itself to take the first strike in a nuclear war with Russia

Anything less would constitute yet more contemptible criminal complicity


Cancellation of Foreign Secretary Level Talks: What Next?
By Z.G. Muhammad

If the stalemate in the relations between India and Pakistan persists will it follow a tradition pattern of ending into intensified ceasefire violations, skirmishes and armed stand off between the two countries along the LOC? And if it could explode into full-fledged war in 2015. Narendra Modi believes Pakistan has lost capacity to fight the conventional wars as India was far more superior in armoury and arsenals- rightly so India is five times bigger than India in size and strength. But in terms of possession of nukes the two countries are evenly placed. This strengthens the belief that South Asia is a most “dangerous place” in the world and Kashmir is a nuclear flash point that cries for a resolution
