Paul Craig Roberts wrote in a recent article for the Press TV website that the world "prepares its own demise" by tolerating "endless slaughters and endless lies" of the United States and Israel.

"The only hope for life and truth is that the world unite against these two criminal governments, isolate them diplomatically and economically, and make it impossible for their?officials to travel abroad without being arrested and placed on trial," he said, adding, "Why does the world need Washington and Israel? Unless the world has a death wish, the world does not need Washington and Israel."

Elsewhere in his comments, Roberts slammed the United States and its European NATO allies for escalating pressure against Russia, which could ultimately lead to a potential world war.
