Jan Oberg Talks About World Peace with Lena Petrova.

Reposted by Jerry Alatalo | May 26, 2026

[Editor’s note: Like virtually all peace activists, Jan Oberg’s voice has been suppressed or censored in the USA/West. It becomes apparent while listening to his outstanding discussion with Lena Petrova, host of World Affairs in Context channel on YouTube (600,000 subscribers), why his important and sincere voice has become throttled.

Here is my brief comment in response:

Jan Oberg coined the term/acronym MIMAC (Military-Industrial-Media-Academic-Complex).

Ray McGovern uses the MICIMATT (Military-Industrial-Congressional-Intelligence-MEDIA-Academia-Think-Tank) acronym because it’s easy to understand and remember.

A one-on-one discussion between Mr. Oberg and Mr. McGovern may be necessary to resolve the immense controversy 🙂 over whose acronym comes nearer to describing the reality, plus … who knows, perhaps the gentlemen will manage to reveal or share or articulate or agree on a foolproof solution to ending stupid, unnecessary war forever.

Call it “The Great MIMAC vs. MICIMATT Debate” … Or, as Mr. McGovern is a few years older than Mr. Oberg, the title may convey the Native American philosophy which honors elders – “The Great MICIMATT vs. MIMAC Debate”… 🙂

Best regards.

Peace.

1069 – On peace rather than military geopolitics – with Lena Petrova

I am very happy and honoured to have been interviewed by Lena Petrova and her amazing YouTube Channel – World Affairs In Context that has almost 600 000 subscribers.

She wanted to focus more on peace and peace thinking than on geopolitics which is omnipresent nowadays, does not address solution and, mostly, contributes day-to-day commentarism on military-related affairs.

So, here is why peace thinking is so different from the mainstream geopolitics…

And it must be a good perspective, ’cause in two weeks 60 000 have watched and over 500 written very appreciative comments.

Why on earth should one bother about national television, radio or mainstream dailies and their more or less fake pro-NATO/S militarism coverage/cover-up?? It is people like Lena who are changing the world now…

Please write your comment on YouTube and SHARE this conversation as widely as you can – if you like it.
