While the mainstream media is focused on censoring real news, and increasing polarization around hot-button issues, there are significant strategic developments occurring: 

---Meetings of Afghanistan's neighbors to help build an economy, to prevent a dissolution into civil war, starvation and drug production;

---China's development of a hypersonic, low-orbit glide vehicle, which caught western intelligence by surprise;

---a new report on how wild liquidity pumping by central banks is behind accelerating inflation, and how it benefits 1.1% of the population;

---Putin blaming Europe's leaders for causing energy shortages and soaring prices, on the eve of the next climate "summit", COP26.
