Interview: How Israel hijacked Trump & lost the Middle East
"We're seeing here the decline, the fall & collapse of the American Empire."
"This idea that they're a superpower that can act at will is clearly wrong. This is an absolute strategic disaster for the US".

"It is easy to cast Trump in the role of the humiliated & hurt German count Ulrich von Brockdorff-Rantzau."
