Patrick Lawrence, the long-time journalist, who has been permanently censored on X, wrote a thoughtful commentary on Sept. 18 for his site on ScheerPost on the latest efforts to promote the “imperium’s business … the wars, the provocations, the illegal sanctions and other collective punishments, the terrorist clients in Israel, the neo–Nazis in Kiev.” Lawrence quotes the late Russian scholar Stephen Cohen that in Washington there is only one party, the War Party.
The article, headlined, “The ‘War Party’ Makes Its Plans,” stresses the warning given Sept. 12 by Russian President Putin that if the Anglo-Americans approve Ukraine’s use of their long-range weapons against Russia, NATO will be at war with Russia.
According to Lawrence, the Kamala Harris campaign has fully adopted that agenda and has never even questioned the miscalculations, violations of international law, the aggression, and other illegalities. Lawrence writes that the Harris campaign document, A New Way Forward is “dedicated to Russophobia, Sinophobia, NATOphilia and ‘the most lethal fighting force in the world,’ which seems to be Harris’s idea of a diplomatic corps.”
