Vladimir Putin Is No Humanitarian | Steve Schmidt

Oct 21, 2026 | Steve Witkoff called dictator Vladimir Putin a humanitarian. With 13 days before the midterms, Steve Schmidt breaks down how Donald Trump is Putin’s puppet and why America must reclaim its moral clarity.

Trump is an evil, know-nothing clown! He belongs in the circus, not the White House! Kick him OUT of OFFICE ASAP, before World War III will surely begin. Because as sure as night follows day, if things go on like this much longer, World War III will be inevitable. And forget all that crap about a hybrid war. World War III will be a hot, kinetic war, just as all world wars have been in history. Even though I am no military man, if I am not greatly mistaken, we are on the brink of DISASTER! It’s time to pull back. — © Mark Alexander

Top UK General Warns of World War III

Oct 18, 2024 | MeidasTouch host Ben Meiselas discusses British Army chief General Sir Roly Walker's stark warning that Britain must prepare for war and the sacrifices that could require. Meiselas examines the implications for a potential World War III, how the UK and Europe are preparing for a wider conflict, and how Donald Trump is dismantling the international security architecture as global threats intensify.

Britons Must Prepare for Sacrifices: 'The Reality Is We Are At War Today' | Major General Tim Cross

Oct 17, 2026 | “The reality is that we are at war today with Russia and others in what’s called the hybrid space.”

The Conditions of a Third World War Have Already Been Met | Volodymyr Yelchenko

Oct 16, 2026 | “I'm trying to put it correctly, we are already living, under conditions of the Third World War. It is simply very different from the second and the first.”

Donald Trump doesn’t realise the “full extent” of the damage he could cause if he continues with his current stance on Ukraine, says former Ukrainian ambassador to the US and Russia Volodymyr Yelchenko.

'USA Has Lost Its Moral Compass': Trump-Putin Deal Could Lead to a Third World War | Tobias Ellwood

Oct 11, 2026 | “This is what uncontrolled escalation looks like.”

Trump’s diesel deal with Putin is a move sought "out of desperation" and the "USA has lost its moral compass" by trading long-term security for "short-term gains", says former Conservative defence minister, Tobias Ellwood.


Trump must surely be one of Vladimir Putin’s assets. The Kremlin and Putin must surely have kompromat on him. Add to this Trump’s insatiable greed—he and his unsavoury family want to profit from any number of possible deals with Russia—deals as yet unknown, and add into the mix Putin’s ruthlessness, and the West has what must surely be described as a treasonous scenario on its hands. Trump is betraying America’s allies and the West. Clearly, Putin is the puppeteer; Trump, the puppet. Put another way, Putin is the marionettist; Trump, the marionette. It’s all now becoming as clear as the noses on our faces. — © Mark Alexander

Jeffrey Sachs: US and Israel Underestimated Iran

March 14, 2026

“Heading to World War 3!” Israel & US 'Armageddon' in Iran | Feat. Jeffrey Sachs

Mar 10, 2026 | The new Ayatollah shares not only a name and a bloodline with his assassinated father - but also the hard line views that America and Israel are sworn enemies and weakness and chaos in the region makes its neighbours easier to control.

It’s therefore no surprise, under current circumstances, that Israel says it will kill the new Ayatollah - and the one after that.

But many people are still struggling to answer the two prerequisite questions: Why is the US at war? And why does it have to be now?

Professor Jeffrey Sachs, a senior advisor to the United Nations, was recently caught on film confronting ambassador Danny Danon about Israel’s ‘suicide’ mission - and they both join Piers Morgan to give their view on the escalating situation.

Piers also speaks to former IDF international spokesman Doron Spielman, former Israeli negotiator and president of the US/Middle East Peace Project, Daniel Levy, ‘Provoked’ author Scott Horton and Tehran University’s Dr Foad Izadi.

Jeffrey Sachs: We Are Now in the Early Days of World War III

Mar 7, 2026 | Prof. Jeffrey Sachs argues that the world may already be entering the early stages of World War III, as the rapidly escalating conflict involving Iran begins to draw in additional countries and regional actors. The initial strikes and retaliations risk triggering a wider chain reaction across the Middle East and beyond, particularly as allied militias, regional powers, and global powers become increasingly involved. The traditional mechanisms of escalation control—diplomatic restraint, clear red lines, and international mediation—appear to be breaking down, raising the danger that what began as a regional confrontation could evolve into a far broader global conflict.

Will Trump Trigger a New World War? | Max Hastings

Jan 30, 2026 | The legendary historian Max Hastings on NATO, China, democracy — and whether today’s world resembles 1914.

In this episode of Switzerland, Tom Switzer is joined by Sir Max Hastings — one of Britain’s most distinguished military historians, journalists, and former newspaper editors — for a wide-ranging conversation about war, power, and the fate of the Western order. They explore whether today’s fractured international system bears dangerous similarities to 1914, the impact of Donald Trump on U.S. foreign policy, Europe’s strategic vulnerability, NATO’s future, the rise of authoritarianism, and the challenges posed by Russia and China. Drawing on decades of scholarship and reportage, Hastings reflects on nationalism, Brexit, technology’s growing political power, and the enduring strengths — and vulnerabilities — of democratic societies in an age of renewed great-power rivalry.

Can America Really Envision World War III?

OPINION : GUEST ESSAY
THE NEW YORK TIMES: In March, as President Biden was facing pressure to intensify U.S. involvement in Ukraine, he responded by invoking the specter of World War III four times in one day.

“Direct conflict between NATO and Russia is World War III,” he said, “something we must strive to prevent.” He underscored the point hours later: “The idea that we’re going to send in offensive equipment and have planes and tanks and trains going in with American pilots and American crews — just understand, and don’t kid yourself, no matter what you all say, that’s called World War III, OK?”

More than any other presidential statement since Sept. 11, 2001, Mr. Biden’s warning signaled the start of a new era in American foreign policy. Throughout my adult life and that of most Americans today, the United States bestrode the world, essentially unchallenged and unchecked. A few years ago, it was still possible to expect a benign geopolitical future. Although “great power competition” became the watchword of Pentagonese, the phrase could as easily imply sporting rivalry as explosive conflict. Washington, Moscow and Beijing would stiffly compete but could surely coexist.

How quaint. The United States now faces the real and regular prospect of fighting adversaries strong enough to do Americans immense harm. The post-Sept. 11 forever wars have been costly, but a true great power war — the kind that used to afflict Europe — would be something else, pitting the United States against Russia or even China, whose economic strength rivals America’s and whose military could soon as well.

This grim reality has arrived with startling rapidity. Since February, the war in Ukraine has created an acute risk of U.S.-Russia conflict. It has also vaulted a Chinese invasion of Taiwan to the forefront of American fears and increased Washington’s willingness to respond with military force. “That’s called World War III,” indeed. » | Stephen Wertheim * | Friday, December 2, 2022

Ukraine Invasion May Be Start of ‘Third World War’, Says George Soros

THE GUARDIAN: Veteran philanthropist tells World Economic Forum civilisation ‘may not survive’ what is coming

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine threatens to be the “beginning of the third world war” that could spell the end of civilisation, the veteran philanthropist and former financier George Soros has warned.

In a ferocious attack on Vladimir Putin and China’s Xi Jinping at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Soros warned that autocratic regimes were in the ascendant and the global economy was heading for a depression.

Soros, who has become a hate figure for the hard right in the US, also heavily criticised the former German chancellor Angela Merkel for cosying up to Moscow and Beijing.

With the mood in Davos already downbeat due to the war in Ukraine, Soros ramped up the gloomy rhetoric to new heights.

“The invasion may have been the beginning of the third world war and our civilisation may not survive it,” he said. » | Larry Elliott, Economics editor | Tuesday, May 24, 2022
