Venezuela Intervention Part 2

Venezuela: Who Profits, Who Plans, Who Pays? To understand Venezuela, you have to follow the money.
Part 2 exposes the actors driving the escalation: defense contractors, energy giants, think tanks, exile networks, and political donors – complete with names, numbers, and documented influence mechanisms. This chapter dismantles the architecture of a system where interventions are not driven by security concerns but by profit, geopolitical leverage, and long-term strategic positioning. It reveals how Venezuela has become the convergence point of global power interests – and why the forces pushing for escalation are far stronger than any warnings against it.

Venezuela Intervention Part 1

The Operational Preparation - a Libya 2.0
While Washington sells its Caribbean military buildup as “counter-narcotics,” the strategic reality tells a different story: F-35 deployments, the 4th Fleet in striking distance, a step-by-step escalation ladder designed by the Atlantic Council, and a blueprint eerily reminiscent of Libya in 2011. Beneath the surface, this operation is not about Maduro – it is about China’s energy lifeline, the Petrodollar, and the geopolitical calculus of American power. Part I dissects the commanders, the hardware, and the doctrine that could push Venezuela into the center of a global confrontation within weeks.

The EU Backdoor to War

The EU Backdoor to War: How Ukraine's Membership Could Trigger NATO-Russia Conflict.
An EU accession of Ukraine is framed as an act of solidarity – yet it quietly embeds a legal mechanism that could pull Europe into a direct military confrontation with Russia.

This analysis examines how Ukraine’s EU membership could redefine Europe’s security architecture, trigger massive economic shifts, and reshape the balance of power on the continent.

Venezuela, China, and the Defense of the Petrodollar: Libya 2.0?

Venezuela, China, and the Defense of the Petrodollar: Libya 2.0? * The escalating U.S.–Venezuela confrontation is not about drug trafficking – it’s about oil, China and the survival of the petrodollar.

Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and the Idea of an “Arab NATO Light”

EDIP: How the EU is Converting Europe into a War Economy

EDIP: How the EU is Converting Europe into a War Economy * While civilian industries collapse and social budgets are slashed, Europe is undergoing a massive military transformation. The EU's €150 billion European Defence Industry Programme (EDIP) isn't just about defense—it's the blueprint for converting Europe's economy from peacetime production to permanent war footing.

Afghanistan: Trump’s Bagram Move and the New Great Game

Afghanistan: The Dangerous Comeback of the Great Game
Donald Trump wants Bagram Air Base back – the Taliban categorically refuse. What sounds like another chapter in the endless Afghanistan conflict could be the prelude to a new geopolitical escalation. Because Afghanistan was never just Afghanistan: It's China's resource reservoir, Russia's security zone, Pakistan's strategic depth, and Iran's gateway to Central Asia.
While the great powers pursue their interests, the country threatens to become a pawn once again – with fatal consequences for 40 million people. China is buying its way in economically, Russia provides the Taliban with diplomatic backing, Pakistan plays a dangerous double game, and the West still believes in military solutions.

Trump, Russia, Anchorage and €197 Billion: A Brilliant Geopolitical Gambit

€197 billion in frozen Russian assets are sitting in Europe — officially reserved for Ukraine, potentially the key to a far bigger geopolitical deal.

This scenario sounds speculative — but it follows the historical logic of U.S. power politics with eerie precision.
