USA und EU: Die Rosenkrieger
Trotz der warmen Worte von Kanzler Merz und Außenminister Rubio bleibt die Lage nach Handelsstreit und Grönland-Krach brisant: Washington fordert eine Partnerschaft zu US-Bedingungen, während Europa um mehr Autonomie ringt. Wenig überraschend herrscht unter den Europäern Uneinigkeit über den künftigen Kurs. VON MARC SAXER am 16. Februar 2026

Eisbrecher ausgefallen, Füllstände der Gasspeicher unter 24 Prozent
Von Peter Winnemöller • Während die Füllstände weiter sinken, ist ein Terminal für LNG faktisch ausgefallen, weil vor Rügen Packeis liegt. Der Eisbrecher fällt wegen Defekts einstweilen aus. Der Wirtschaftsausschuss im Deutschen Bundestag soll sich in einer Sondersitzung mit dem Mangel befassen.

Münchner Sicherheitskonferenz? Es war ein verbissener Anti-Trump-Gipfel
Von Martina Binnig • Europa hat den Ukraine-Krieg vor der Tür, den es weder beenden noch gewinnen kann. Gleichzeitig nutzen führende Vertreter Deutschlands und Europas die Münchner-Sicherheitskonferenz für einen ideologisch geprägten Generalangriff auf die USA und die Regierung von Donald Trump. Das ist das Gegenteil von kluger Diplomatie.

Von Anna Diouf Di, 17. Februar 2026
In diesem Jahr fällt der Beginn des Ramadan mit Aschermittwoch zusammen. Während die christliche Fastenzeit kaum Beachtung findet, gewinnt der Islam spürbar an Sichtbarkeit. Kulturelle Verschiebung – oder Verdrängung?

Trump Kabuki Theatre in Ukraine: Nothing of Substance Gets Resolved
By Alastair Crooke Strategic Culture February 17, 2026
The Witkoff negotiation enterprise is distancing Russia from its security imperatives.
It is not a glitch (that nothing gets resolved). It’s a feature. For it opens rather, a path for ‘Business’ to be done – for ‘stakeholder’ deals to be cut, and for billions to be shared out in payoffs. This is Trump’s geo-……………………

Media Freedom…if We Can Keep it!
By Ron Paul, MD The Ron Paul Institute February 17, 2026
Last week I had the pleasure to again appear on Tucker Carlson’s popular broadcast. Although the program appears on several different platforms, on X alone the episode has been seen by more than two and a half million people. That does not include the various clips and shorts that people made and posted themselves. It is incredible how the reach and influence of the independent media has grown over the past …………………….

Anti-American Textbooks
By Llewellyn H. Rockwell, Jr. February 16, 2026
Murray Rothbard hated the State, but he loved America. Unfortunately, many of the “educators” in our so-called “public” schools have just the reverse values. They love the State but hate America. As I pointed out in an earlier column, the only permanent cure for this is to end public education: we must separate …………………….
