The Chainsaw Revolution - Javier Milei’s Rothbardian Assault on Argentine Collectivism
Over the past few decades, mankind has watched helplessly as political power has expanded without limits. The aggrandisement of the executive branch, centralised planning, and governments’ habitual resort to purported “emergency” measures have constricted liberty, undermined voluntary cooperation, and brought about a sharp decline in economic prosperity. This trend leads citizens toward ever-greater subjugation to the State’s coercive apparatus

Double Standards – Why Jews and Arabs Are Treated Differently in the Middle East
Since the creation of the State of Israel in 1948, shortly after the Second World War, and during the broader wave of decolonisation that followed the retreat of European powers, many new states have emerged around the world. This process was often accompanied by major population movements. srael, as a Jewish state, has an Arab minority of about 20%, consisting of both Muslims and Christians. By contrast, in the surrounding Arab countries, almost all Jews have disappeared, ha

Hebrew rediscovered – From sacred language to popular language
Some languages accompany the birth of a civilisation. Others come to embody its destiny. Hebrew belongs to the latter category. At Rome’s Il Pitigliani Cultural Center, the second event in the series Lechaim – To Life! A Journey into Jewish Identity, devoted to the rebirth of Hebrew, had the great merit of moving beyond formulaic explanations and restoring to the subject its full historical, spiritual, and intellectual depth.

There Is Nothing New About Trump’s Economic Populism
The Supreme Court’s 6–3 decision invalidating Donald Trump’s emergency tariffs, followed almost immediately by the President’s response reinstating and increasing them, reminds us once again how rapidly American politics evolves. Yet, in some cases, it pays to recognise that certain underlying threads in government policy remain constant, regardless of the period or the leaders in charge. Too often, so-called “experts” weigh in on current events without any real command of ec

UAntwerpen, UGent, and VUB award Francesca Albanese an honorary doctorate — Belgian universities are getting it completely wrong
On April 2, Francesca Albanese received an honorary doctorate from no fewer than three Flemish universities (UAntwerpen, UGent, VUB) at the Queen Elisabeth Hall in Antwerp.
This was the first time these three universities had jointly awarded an honorary doctorate.
The fact that Albanese was granted this honour by Flemish universities is troubling

Keyvan Shahbazi – Speech Amsterdam, April 11, 2026
I want to speak to you about war.
A war that consumes human lives every day. A merciless war. Not a war of maps and analyses. A war with many, many dead. A war in which tens of thousands have been taken prisoner. A war in which tens of thousands have been tortured, mutilated, broken. Where bodies are destroyed and souls are crushed.

Reporting on global politics in Belgium – neutrality and independence or activism?
The Belgian media landscape, aside from the public broadcaster VRT, is in the hands of two major family-owned companies. Reporting on global politics in Belgium therefore comes from a very limited number of organisations. It should also be noted that DPG and the public broadcaster hold such a large market share that the remaining news supply pales in comparison. The question arises: is there neutrality and independence, or activism?

Sodom and Gomorrah: Open letter to the artistic director of Opera Ballet Flanders
For a woman like me, with a sharp awareness of the society in which we live, it is not surprising, but for a Christian sustained by sincere devotion, all the more shocking: the latest production by Opera Ballet Flanders, titled Sancta - a work unworthy of that name and one that perverts it into its very opposite. For what unfolds here may well be the most sickening figment our artistic circles have produced in a long time. So hereby I send you an open letter as artistic direc

The accomplices are now frighteningly silent
War is frightening. No one knows that better than Iranians. But for us, every explosion means something different. For us, every explosion that strikes the Revolutionary Guard of the Islamic Republic is an echo of justice. For every life that was stolen. For every name that will never be spoken again. For every execution. For every dream that was crushed by this regime. For the girls who were humiliated, raped, broken. For the political prisoners in dark dungeons.

Attack synagogue Liège
In de nacht van 8 op 9 maart heeft er een aanslag plaatsgevonden op de synagoge van Luik aan de Léon Frédéricq. Volgens de Rabbijn van de synagoge, Joshua Nejman we moeten niet meteen conclusies trekken aangezien het motief nog niet bekend is. De bisschop van Luik heeft de explosie bij de synagoge (Joodse religieuze instelling) direct veroordeeld en zei dat de situatie in het Midden-Oosten geen enkele rechtvaardiging is om hier in Europa tussen de verschillende religies span

Pax Americana as the new world order – Belgium and Europe on the sideline
Na twee jaar oorlog tegen de terreur van de Iraanse Ayatollah en zijn proxy’s, met Israël als frontlinie voor het vrije westen, zijn de Verenigde Staten begin deze maand begonnen om samen met Israël het Iraanse regime voorgoed uit te schakelen door middel van zware bombardementen. Pax Americana als nieuwe wereldorde is helemaal terug. België en Europa staan aan de zijlijn van de gebeurtenissen.
