Trump Real Estate Geopolitics Trump Real Estate Geopolitics is the core component of how he conducts diplomacy. https://ericarnow.substack.com/p/real-estate-geopolitics-and-the-ukraine?r=1iig8   My central argument is that American foreign policy, particularly regarding critical negotiations like those between the United States and Russia, is increasingly being conducted not by seasoned diplomats, but by real estate speculators. This isn’t just a recent phenomenon; it’s a thread that runs through American history. The Curious Case of Real Estate Diplomacy It’s astonishing to consider that negotiations between two global powers like the United States and Russia have been spearheaded by individuals primarily known for their real estate …

This essay explores how historical ambitions, economic missteps, and a refusal to acknowledge self-inflicted wounds have driven the crisis, aligning with Oswald Spengler’s 1921 prophecy in The Decline of the West, where he foresaw the West’s decline despite its apparent power.

This blog post from November 2013 largely predicted the tragedy of Ukraine. The author shut down the website, due to pressure from ‘somebody’.   Agency: Who’s Responsible? It’s kind of humorous how everybody familiar with the Ukraine conflict is asking who is responsible for an attack on Russia’s nuclear capable aircraft, an act that could easily precipitate a nuclear war.

  It looks like the American version of The Grand Chessboard is not going as planned. Rather than Russia being defeated and dismembered, it’s winning, to the chagrin of the West. And they don’t know what to do.   The Grand Chessboard and The Real Objective of the Ukraine War   The whole objective of the Ukraine war has been to weaken Russia, sow division within Russian society, and eventually create regime change. The West’s whole history and its strength has been its ability to infiltrate and invade countries, to steal their resources and enslave their people, if not in …

How the West Seduced, Used, Abused and Abandoned Ukraine The situation in Ukraine first came to my attention in late 2013.
