Global Research Referral Drive: Our Readers Are Our Lifeline

TFF is your independent go-to think tank for fundamentally critical NATO analyses. On our present homepage alone, you’ll find more than 600 such articles and videos – and equally many on our archive sites.
NATO’s 75th Anniversary on April 4, 2024, is a golden opportunity to discuss its tragic peace-making failure and why it should have been closed down thirty years ago when its raison d’etre—the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact—fell apart.
Its out-of-area operations – beginning with the bombings in Yugoslavia 25 years ago – is one long, painful violation of its own Treaty from 1949. That treaty is clearly defensive, a copy of the UN Charter with Article 5 for mutual defence among its members added.
Any organisation that consistently does the opposite of its own statutes should be investigated.
NATO’s de facto rhetoric, psychopolitical projections, concepts, threat inventions and doctrine – including nuclear first-use, deterrence, forward defence, etc. – as well as its reckless expansion in violation of all Western promises given to Russia’s Gorbachev about not expanding “one inch” – make it indisputably offensive, provocative, and war risk-increasing. Militaristic. Anti-peace.
In today’s anti-intellectual foreign and security policy world, liking and adhering to NATO is a matter of emotionalism, populism, and pure faith. NATO is a church-like institution run by religious phrases and mantras. It has nothing to do with rational analysis of pros and cons. Whatever NATO has done and does, it is for ‘stability, security and peace’ but, as everybody knows, Europe is now closer to major war than at any point since 1945.
Trillions upon trillions of dollars of taxpayers’ money have been wasted on NATO’s Military-Industrial-Media-Academic Complex, MIMAC, which is making every citizen in its member states less and less secure.
For years, NATO has developed into a militarist emperor, and somebody has to say: But – look – he wears no clothes!
TFF is competent and happy to do so – and will continue to do so. Why? Because it is one of Western civilisation’s biggest and most well-documented lies that NATO is theroad to peace and that peace could not be created by means of completely different thinking and policies at a much lower price. We just have to begin to think – and think differently.
Since TFF is completely independent of state and corporate funding and relies only on citizens’ donations we continue to speak truth to power as we have since 1986.
Here is what we could have done thirty years ago: “Leaving the Cold War Behind. How the West Can Create Cooperation and Build Peace With the Soviets” written in 1989.
Here is why Russia as a huge threat to NATO is humbug. Here is a unique analysis with 30 arguments for closing down the peace-eroding, offensive, warmongering NATO. And here is a concrete future vision of how to make global peace and common security.
And here are the other 600+ TFF articles that critically contrast—with concepts, facts, and alternative thinking—the undignified propaganda mainstream research, politics, and the media use to make you believe in militarism, fake threat analyses, and our own infallibility and innocence.
Use this until NATO is abolished #NOTONATO.
