(14 April 2025) In 2005, the French and Dutch rejected the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe in referendums. But in 2007, the French and Dutch parliamentary assemblies adopted the same text, barely amended, under the name of the Lisbon Treaty. For the first time since the end of World War II, the French and Dutch ruling classes showed their sovereign contempt for their peoples.
(14 April 2025) (CH-S) The ISPS criticises strong social and legal trends in many countries around the world towards the legalisation of euthanasia and assisted suicide. So-called “useless lives” should not be allowed to be extinguished prematurely at the “request” of the person concerned.

(14 April 2025) The appearance of the new US administration in Munich and Brussels, the scandal between US President Donald Trump and Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House, and the spectacular offensive of the Russian army in the Kursk area have sent shockwaves through Europe and caused almost panicky reactions.

(4 April 2025) The destruction of the economic basis of our society, the restriction of our fundamental rights and freedoms, and even the instigation and support of wars that could affect and destroy us all – why do people go along with so much of this almost without contradiction? Much has already been said about this, and analyses of propaganda and its effects are available. But what about the individual? Why do people not object, but submit – obediently or enthusiastically – to the looming destruction of their economic and even physical existence and that of their loved ones? Why do many demonstrate against the far right – as is the case in Germany – rather than for peace?
