The New World Order is not turning out as planned. Instead of all power emanating from London and Washington, new power centres are emerging to the South and East: a new global equilibrium raises the possibility of a new post-imperial age of peace and equality between nations.

As anticipated by LEAP/E2020 since November 2010, and often repeated up to June 2011, the second half of 2011 has started with a sudden and major relapse of the crisis. Nearly USD 10 trillion of the USD 15 trillion in ghost assets announced in GEAB N°56 have already gone up in smoke. The rest (and probably much more) will vanish in the fourth quarter of 2011, which will be marked by what our team calls “the implosive fusion of global financial assets”. It’s the two major global financial centers, Wall Street in New York and the City of London, which will be the “preferred reactors” of this fusion. And, as predicted by LEAP/E2020 for several months, it’s the solution to the public debt problems in some Euroland countries which will enable this reaction to reach critical mass, after which nothing is controllable; but the bulk of the fuel that will drive the reaction and turn it into a real global shock (1) is found in the United States. Since July 2011 we have only started on the process that led to this situation: the worst is ahead of us and very close!

The assault on Libya marks a new imperialist offensive led by NATO which threatens grave consequences for humanity if unchecked. A resurgent, French, British and even Turkish imperialism provide a distinctly 19th century air to proceedings. In contrast to 2003 and the Iraq War there has been no opposition worth talking about from the left who have now rallied around the left-liberal paradigm as being worthy of universal enforcement. The left are onboard for the new imperialism and they provide its ideological backbone. To paraphrase one of their old songs ” the Internationale unites the white race’.

If Russian prime minister Putin’s recent description of America as “a parasite on the world” were reported by the US media, little doubt that most Americans would be infuriated. We are the virtuous people. Without us good guys to police the world there would be mayhem and wars everywhere, not merely the ones we started in the Middle East, Asia, and North Africa. Without the American white hats people everywhere would be starving and dying from natural disasters. It is us chosen ones who provide the rescue operations and good deeds. How dare the former KGB monster to slander our country!

Although everyday life seems to go on as normal, looting and burning notwithstanding, the worlds events are hurtling towards their denouement. Never has one flashpoint succeeded another with such breakneck speed and the prevailing feeling can only be one of bewilderment. This year has seen, so far, the Arab Spring, a new war against an Arab nation which has gone disastrously wrong for “the scourge of the world”, the new Tamberlaine, Anders Fogh Rasmussen, a new stock market collapse, unpredented post-modern rioting ,the Norwegian terror attacks and the implosion of the Murdoch empire, amongst other prodigies. The question is: how are these events connected?

Indian Punchline
9th August, 2011
In a high-profile month of August, occupying the presidency of the United Nations Security Council could have embellished India’s claim to permanent membership of the club. But it is not going to happen that way, but instead it may turn out to be a test of the resilience of India’s ‘non-alignment’ in a multi-polar world. India’s tight-rope walk on Syria moves on to a delicate trapeze act this week when the United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon presents his report on Syria and the 15 members begin to deliberate what to do with it.

A recurring feature of the Russian-Iranian relationship is that it mostly languishes on the horizon but can be trusted to move to the center stage whenever there is a criticality in the Middle East situation. Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi made a point recently in an interview with the Russian media when he described Iran as the “most significant neighbor” of Russia, which stands in the way of the Western strategy to encircle Russia.

Interview with former Russian Foreign Minister
Spiegel

SPIEGEL: Mr. Primakov, which Arab country currently worries you the most?
Primakov: Libya. The Western coalition’s attempt to bomb the Gadhafi regime away isn’t backed by UN Resolution 1973 — and it’s not well thought-out in strategic terms. It’s high time for us to find a political solution to the Libyan crisis .

The participation by Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari in the two-day conference on terrorism held at Tehran on June 25 was invested with political symbolism as a mark of displeasure towards the United States. But Zardari’s return to Tehran within three weeks on a second visit on Saturday unmistakably carried the stamp of Pakistan’s “strategic defiance” of the US.
