2025 – A Year of Lies & War.

Tübingen, Germany, Dec. 31, 2025. By S.G. Kazolias.

2025 was a very bad year. 2026 doesn’t promise to be much better. There are signs of hope, but it may be too little, too late.

How Europeans see the USA’s march to Authoritarianism

Every now and then I have to put my rage on paper, or in this case on my blog. I know it doesn’t make a difference. Those who want to see have already looked up. There is nothing you can do about stupid, except stop him.

It is always like walking on eggs to express opinions which go against the Lobbies and powers-that-be in the EU. The march to repress freedom of speech and of thought, especially in denouncing genocide and war-mongering, has gone much further and much faster than I thought possible.

France Deports Gaza Student for Alleged Antisemitism

Socrates George Kazolias, August 6, 2025

A Gaza Palestinian student has been deported from France to Qatar for allegedly sharing online antisemitic, even pro-Hitler, posts. Her treatment underlines the double standards in France when it comes to dealing with hate speech, racism and ‘terrorism.’

Zionists Kill not only Palestinians.

By S.G. Kazolias, Paris.

Zionism is the greatest threat to our freedom of speech and assembly in the West today. Zionism is also the number one vector and promoter of antisemitism on which it thrives.

Zionism is not only threatening world peace and social cohesion. It is also tearing families and friends apart. It has overwhelming control and influence over the media. Its promoters, as mainstream pundits, have confused many well-meaning people, leading to ruptures in family and friendship relations.

Don’t Just Stand By & Watch.

A journalist who exposes Israel’s Apartheid regime is labeled an anti-semite. When he calls Israel’s intent “Genocide,” the reporter might as well change professions if he ever wants to work again. They will make sure your reputation is ruined.

I have not been creative since Biden lied to the world by saying he saw the photos of an event which never happened: the beheading of 40 Israeli babies in the daring and successful Palestinian military operation on October 7. This was the first of many Israeli lies to come to justify the unbearable.

30-Years of Bad Journalism– the Un-credible Press

By Socrates George Kazolias–Paris, March 14, 2023:

The New York Times has used anonymous sources to discredit Seymour Hersh for using anonymous sources when he blamed the US for blowing up the Nord Stream pipelines. The question is who has a better track record: Hersh or the Gray Lady of WMD fame? (1) I have come under criticism for my previous article insisting that the press fulfill its role of filtering the spin, or even worse, I am accused of encouraging the censorship of those in power.

Separating fact from fiction and sifting through the fluff to bring out the important, is the very definition of journalism. That journalists have lost their honor and professionalism may be true, but it is none-the-less their job. They are not paid to just hold an open microphone for spin-doctors.

Ukraine-media lies, disinformation & war mongering

I must protest at the dishonestly and openly propagandistic nature of an October 30, 2022, Associated Press article on Bucha and alleged Russian massacres (click here). I am not denying war crimes have been committed, on both sides. I am denying there is proof of them being ordered by the Russian high command and that there were crimes to the extent alleged, especially in Bucha.  This article by AP lies through omission and implying things that may not be so.  Hear-say is not fact?

Syria : Further proof US is aiding Islamic killers

Was Ambassador Christopher Stevens running guns to Syria for the CIA when he was killed in September 2012 in Benghazi?  New evidence points in that direction. The United States has been repeatedly accused of arming Syrian Islamists, in part with Libyan weapons shipped through Nato to Turkey and then over the border. An interview in Aleppo by a German reporter (1), released this week and given wide coverage in Germany and Russia but little elsewhere , brings further proof to the allegations.  But US complicity with the Islamists goes much deeper.

Gabon’s media landscape is a mess

The state TV in Port Gentil where five high ranking civil servants work has not broadcast since 2007.

Libreville, Gabon: When President Ali Bongo celebrated Press Freedom Day on May 3, the vast majority of Gabon’s press boycotted the event and held their own meeting elsewhere in Libreville, the capital.  Speaking before a handful of pro-government media, Bongo complained that the opposition press demand subsidies but spend their time insulting him, once again demonstrating a 50 year Bongo family tradition of confusing state finances with private assets. “The press is against me,” he lamented. Bongo’s statement underlined the extent to which Gabon’s media landscape is polarized as we head to presidential elections in August.
