Dear friend,
A warm welcome to our many new subscribers. If you have not yet subscribed, please do so now. Then new articles, videos and TFF PressInfo will come winging directly into your e-mail inbox.
NATO’s Summit is over, and here is my summary of this catastrophe from a peace point of view: “Can organisations such as NATO at 75 suffer from dementia?” - I mean, Biden’s isn’t the worst…
Step by step, NATO countries demonstrate a frighteningly poor understanding of the wider world and their own role in it. Furthermore, they seem to believe that they can safely continue to provoke, threaten, sanction, cancel and choose weapons over diplomacy and still be seen as legitimate and as leaders of our world.
Sorry to say it, but the Occident now looks like an Accident.

Fundraising in honour of Johan Galtung and his daughter Irene
Johan Galtung’s last and very moving video from 2022. Read also how he was mistreated by Norwegian health authorities - and others - at the end of his life: Peace researcher Johan Galtung’s human rights violated as he approached death. See here, too!
Over seven decades thousands upon thousands benefitted from Galtung’s 150+ books and countless lectures on all continents. When he died thousands also expressed their grief.
But it seems that very few of them meant it deeply enough to make just a small donation to this fundraising to redress his honour after the injustice and to help his loving daughter. Please do a good deed now!
