In many parts of the county it is not clear who is actually in control. The situation is certainly very dangerous for civilians. http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article30365.htm

PM Cameron’s call for a “moral capitalism” would be laughable if it weren’t so tragic and hypocritical. After all, hasn’t it been capitalism’s alleged occupation of the ‘moral high ground’, what they now choose to call ‘humanitarian intervention’ that has been used as a justification for mass murder and genocide? But plainly the millions killed and the countries decimated don’t fall under Cameron’s definition of what is and isn’t ‘moral’. Clearly, it’s for ‘local consumption’ only.
Dear Charles,
Thank for the compliment. I’m not sure what you mean by ‘pure capitalism’ (did I use the phrase?). And yes, state intervention into the capitalist market surely alters it but as I stated, state intervention has come about because the working class intervened. Isn’t this what the reformist model is all about?

William- I love your writing. It is dynamic in its emotion and ferocious in style. However, I question whether or not you can distinguish between “pure” capitalism and “state-sponsored” capitalism. We are economically where we are at, currently, because of the entanglements between the public and private sector elites, not because of capitalism in its pure form.
