Washington Is Destroying American Power Paul Craig Roberts Readers at home and around the world want to know what to make of the announcement that China henceforth will conduct oil purchases and sales in gold-backed Chinese currency.

Correction: I attributed this statement--“Russia will never again fight a war on its own territory”--made by Putin's adviser Sergey Karaganov to Putin. Perhaps I confused it with Putin's statement that "If a fight's inevitable, you must strike first." The Unraveling of American/Russian Relations Paul Craig Roberts Dear Readers: I agree that the official Las Vegas story seems to be unraveling. A public mass shooting should...
