Kerry’s Syria gaffe takes wings By Melkulangara BHADRAKUMAR
Launching a war in slow motion against a faraway country is never a smart thing to do, but it can have its advantages, too, in case the need arises to rein in the war on reflection before it gets under way. That seems to be happening in the case of the United States’ planned strike… Continue reading

Preparations for regional war By Thierry Meyssan
Both the United States and France are busy with preparations for the bombing of Syria, although such action corresponds to no strategic objective for either state.

The Art of Collaborating with the Nazi’s: Hollywood & America Reek of Nazi Influence
Ben Urwand’s The Collaboration: Hollywood’s Pact with Hitler (The Belknap Press of Harvard University Press, 2013) is a disturbing, unsettling and must-read.

Troodos: UK’s Spy Centre in the Middle East By Craig Murray
Troodos is highly effective – the jewel in the crown of British intelligence. Its capacity and efficiency, as well as its reach, is staggering.

I don’t blame Bradley Manning for apologizing for his actions and effectively begging for the court’s mercy. He’s on trial in a system rigged against him. The commander in chief declared him guilty long ago. He’s been convicted. The judge has been offered a promotion. The prosecution has been given a playing field slanted steeply… Continue reading
