CHRISTOPHER NOLAN'S THE ODYSSEY CAUGHT IN THE CROSSFIRE OF THE BATTLE OF THE BOOKS Homer's The Odyssey is a foundational book to European culture, especially for Mediterranean Europe. I would argue it is a much more influential book than the Old Testament…
This is how The Odyssey was cast in 1968. This is the version I grew up watching. The casting is spot on here, don't you think? I loved this version. It looked so authentic, so mythical. It was directed by Franco Rossi, assisted by Piero Schivazappa and Mario Bava; the cast includes Bekim Fehmiu as Odysseus and Irene Papas as Penelope, Samson Burke as the Cyclops, as well as Barbara Bach as Nausicaa, and Gérard Herter. I would rather watch this version again than watch the obviously miscast Christopher Nolan version, and you?

It's surreal you hear Gen Z graduates boo AI at their commencement speeches, then turn on Fox News and see some paid off boomer insist "AI is the future."

Turns out you can only manufacture so much consent.

✡️ Another Zionist caught desecrating Christian shrine

A video has surfaced online showing a Zionist man spitting at the Shrine of the Virgin Mary across from the Church of the Shepherds of the Savior in Jerusalem's Old City, ostensibly recorded during Israel's Flag March.

This display fits a broader pattern of Zionists showing intolerance and utter disrespect for faiths other than Judaism — with two IDF "heroes" captured mocking a statue of the Virgin Mary in Lebanon just this month.

🚨 Prof. Richard Sakwa: 'MILITARISM and remilitarisation now DOMINATE Western political culture’

'There is a closing of the West European mind, and it is very frightening. It is centered on permanent war, militarism, remilitarisation, and a profound Russophobia. 

Quite the opposite of strengthening international law, the actions of the US and West European powers are increasingly treated with contempt across great swathes of the Global South.

This irresponsible bullying and the attempt to impose endless sanctions, including secondary sanctions, are viewed as illegal because only the United Nations Security Council has the authority to impose multilateral sanctions.

These governments claim they are defending international law, but in doing so they are undermining and repudiating it. It is a classic case of double standards defeating the very norms they claim to uphold.

—Prof. Richard Sakwa, Emeritus Professor of Politics at the University of Kent and author of The Putin Paradox on the latest episode of New Order.

Civilization at the Crossroads with Alastair Crooke (Full Interview)

"Civilization at the Crossroads with Alastair Crooke"

Former British diplomat and intelligence officer Alastair Crooke is an independent commentator whose perceptive Middle East and global geopolitical analysis diverges sharply from the boilerplate Anglo-American policy consensus. Since founding the Beirut-based Conflicts Forum think tank in 2004, Crooke has addressed such important themes as the structural decline of U.S. and European power (and Western elites’ lost capacity for strategic realism), the emergence of a multipolar order (led by what he calls the “civilizational states” of Eurasia), and the ideological roots of Israeli policy.

John Titus and I have had frequent recourse to Crooke’s insights on Money & Markets, and this week I am delighted to have Crooke join me for his first interview on the Solari Report. And none too soon, given the fast-moving developments in Iran and the wider Middle East!

One of the most pressing questions we discuss is how to view the current conflict’s multiple fronts—military, trade, financial—on an integrated basis. We also discuss the escalating war on energy and U.S. efforts to control or bottleneck trade routes all over the world. The methodical shutting down of pipeline, production, and refining capacity suggests two possible (and not necessarily mutually exclusive) agendas: (1) an unacknowledged war between China and the U.S. to engineer the lowest cost of capital and energy (by curtailing access to essential resources) or (2) a radical and forced reduction in the general population’s energy usage.

I was also interested in getting Crooke’s assessment of developments related to the dollar as reserve currency and the U.S. competitive position compared to China. Though the unproductive financialization model, weighed down by corruption and grift, clearly seems to be coming to an end, its oligarchic instigators want to keep it going. The challenge for the rest of us is to avoid the financial repression and chaos where we can and stay focused on rebuilding civilization and a human future.

Crooke’s fascinating experience—Ireland-born, Rhodesia-raised, Scotland-educated, and with a stint in London banking before a three-decade career with Britain’s MI6 and twenty-plus years in direct contact with the movements that the intelligence apparatus was built to counter—make for penetrating analysis that can help you understand the deeper stories and the complex cultural dynamics behind propagandistic headlines.

The word Crooke chooses to describe the road ahead is “catharsis”—we are heading into a difficult time. His insights inspire our pathway forward and the possibility of the human future that makes it so worthwhile.

REVIEW FROM CANNNES:

FJORD, by Cristian Mungiu:

Fjord shows is a masterpiece of a film which portrays the vindictiveness of "Progressive" society against Orthodox Christians, and Christians in general.

It shows the normative approach to eliminating any vestige of religiosity via legal and coercive means, using parenting as a tool of Progressive evangelisation.

The film intelligently leaves open the possibility that although heavy handedness may at times be a part of religious upbringing, the Progressive heavy handedness is a lot more damaging to the Christian minority group.

A very intelligent film very suited to our troubled times.

REVIEW FROM CANNNES:

I SEE BUILDINGS FALL LIKE LIGHTNING by Clio Barnard

An instant classic about the broken contract on housing between the capitalist "stakeholders" and the working class in Birmingham.

Cinematically stunning, powerful music and editing, and a highly poignant message about putting community above exploitation more relevant than ever today.

This is a film to watch and treasure, why was it not in the main competition? Could easily be a winner!

Brilliant article by Mark Collett on the Filton6 and why it is important that British nationalists understand the subversion of English law that will inevitably be used against them.

'it reveals that an English judge chose to circumvent English law and disregard centuries-old legal tradition, whilst at the same time gagging the press, in order to unduly punish British Citizens, not because of their transgressions against the British state, or because of the severity of their actual crimes, but because the actions of those stood in the dock may have impacted the state of "israel".'

The jewish Marks, Sieff and Sacher Families (Marks & Spencer Dynasty) were the primary architects of the economic and institutional pro-'israel' network in the UK.

After they ousted the son of English co-founder Thomas Spencer from the company, they used their wealth to fund 'israel's' development and the IOF.

They were tightly interwoven through marriage: Israel Sieff and Harry Sacher married the sisters of Simon Marks—son of M&S co-founder and Polish immigrant Michael Marks—Rebecca and Miriam, respectively. Together, they formed the core of the 'Manchester School of Zionism' and:

- Acted as the primary handlers and aides to Chaim Weizmann, the Russian jew who went on to become 'israel's' first president.

- Built the political machinery that lobbied the British War Cabinet, directly resulting in the 1917 Balfour Declaration.

- Created a London headquarters at Great Russell Street, noted by historians as the physical 'heart of the UK's pro-'israel' lobby'.

After the Nakba in 1948, they systematically worked to repair the diplomatic damage left by the jewish terror on Britain during the Palestine Mandate by leveraging the immense economic clout of Marks & Spencer.

Michael Sacher became the primary financial force behind the creation of early political briefing groups. He bankrolled the British 'israel' Public Affairs Committee (BIPAC), which directly laid the logistical and structural foundation for what would become the Conservative Friends of 'israel' (CFI) in 1974.

M&S built 'israel's' modern textile and agricultural industries through exclusive massive supply contracts with 'israeli' firms like Delta Galil. This injected hundreds of millions of vital foreign currency effectively making the British high street a major financial pillar of early 'israeli' entity survival.

Former M&S corporate spokespersons have said 'We have a history and a background with "israel" that we are very proud of'.

M&S executives direct personal connections to 'israel':

- In 1948, 'israel's' first Prime Minister, David Ben-Gurion, personally requested Lord Marcus Sieff (the future chairman of M&S) to help defend the new entity. Sieff temporarily joined the IOF, advising the 'israeli' Ministry of Defence on logistics, transportation, and supplies. He openly coordinated M&S goods and corporate finances to bolster the colony during its early aggressions on Palestinians and surrounding countries.

- In his 1990 book, Management: The Marks and Spencer Way, Sieff explicitly wrote that one of the fundamental corporate objectives of M&S was to 'aid the economic development of "israel".'

They used their wealth to build the settler colony and to influence British politicians to forget the massacres of the British troops and civilians by jewish terrorist groups and become pro-'israel'.

Boycott M&S.

🎬At the Cannes Film Festival at the Cinéma de la Plage, filmmaker Ken Loach once again used his platform to speak out with clarity and conviction.

He spoke clearly against the genocide in Gaza committed by Israel, breaking the usual festival silence to insist on the moral responsibility to name injustice and refuse indifference.

His intervention stood out as a reminder that cinema is never separate from the world it reflects.

Across a career spanning decades, Loach has been one of the most consistent voices in European cinema in defence of working-class lives and against social and political injustice.

His filmmaking has repeatedly focused on those most affected by inequality and state violence, always grounded in a deeply humanistic perspective.

His reference to Martin Luther King Jr. echoed a lifelong theme in his work: that silence in the face of injustice is never neutral.

“The worst thing is not the violence of the bad. It is the silence of the good.”

At Cannes, that conviction was once again made audible.

Jack Cohen (Jacob Edward Kohen), the son of Jewish immigrants from Poland, built the Tesco empire from a single market stall.

His daughter 'Dame' Shirley Porter led the biggest local government corruption scandal in modern British history.

Porter and her sister Sybil Irene Kreitman inherited half of their father's fortune each.

In the 1980s, Porter became the Conservative leader of Westminster City Council.

She orchestrated the 'Homes for Votes' scandal, unlawfully rigging local housing policies and selling off council homes in key marginal voting areas— to pack them with affluent voters likely to vote Conservative.

Timeline for Porter:

- Resigned from Westminster City Council in 1993 as public exposure of the scandal peaked.

- Ran away to 'israel' with her husband in 1994 to live in a luxury seaside penthouse in 'Herzliya Pituach' (Al-Haram and Ijlil villages, Jaffa, occupied Palestine).

REVIEW FROM CANNES:

DEATH HAS NO MASTER by Jorge Thielen Armand

Armand's Venezuela set film, starring Asia Argento, is a set piece which reflects our wider geopolitical conflicts.

Argento plays the daughter of an Italian colonial settler returning to sell the recently dead father's home, only to find that the colonialist power structure is no longer accepted by the father's Venezuelan house keeper.

This leads to an inevitable confrontation much akin the Global South standing up to the Global North, or the West, represented by Argento's claims to property & land.

The parallels between fiction and wider reality are very powerful, as well as Armand's haunting directing and cinematography.
