Some time ago I banished the Kunstler blog from the tiny part of the world which I control - my personal blogosphere - to the cold, barren wastes of 'Wherever'. I now welcome him back - for this week at least. He is the only man whom I know has a keen eye for the... Continue Reading →
Navigating the Bullshit Battle Minefield
Whenever something significant happens it tends to polarise people, and, trust me, something significant is happening right now. We are all part of it whether we yet recognise that or not. It is the beginning of a new era in global affairs. Perhaps I shouldn't use the term 'global' because that smacks of the old... Continue Reading →
Is An Outbreak of ‘Honesty’ Developing?
Honesty, it seems, is the theme of the day today. Check out my previous post on Gonzalo Lira. And now there is this... Both a guest and the presenters on 'The Hill' have suddenly discovered the need for honesty in reporting. I wonder how long that will last? The Hill is not on my daily... Continue Reading →
No More Lies, No More BS: Gonzalo Lira
As a person of conscience and heart I am duty bound to post this follow-up from Gonzalo Lira to a video of his which I featured yesterday. This man is growing in my estimation each time I hear him speak (which is only through his published videos). He has been criticised by others for naming... Continue Reading →
Ukraine – Proving Ground for Latest Russian Weapons, and Invaluable Tactical Training Arena in Their Most Advantageous Use
The west has inadvertantly (a euphemism for 'clumsily' [I'm being polite here]) provided for Russia the very best opportunity for their military to receive practical, on-the-job training with weapons they could have only dreamed of (and the west still does) in the past. Many of these weapons are unheard of before. Such is the difference... Continue Reading →
So Long ScoMo, Lying Bastard
'Labor Leader Albanese Wins Australian Federal Election' - TeleSUR And so, just like that, in a single day there is a changing of the guard in Australian politics ...or is there really any change? I am not so sure. One thing will emerge, the number of women representing Australian people's interests (at least nominally) will... Continue Reading →
Gonzalo Is Right!
This is going to hopefully be a short post, because I should really be asleep. Gonzalo Lira, the brave reporter (I wouldn't call him a journalist although to be honest I don't know what his personal circumstances are) who lives for the time being in Kharkov (yes, that Kharkov, in the middle of an artillery...

Stop Monkeying Around with Diseases
OK, before I go any further let me say that this is pure speculation - a dangerous pursuit at the best of times, and one which I try not to engage in too much - but... Do you remember some time ago - it was actually late 2021 - around about the first anniversary of... Continue Reading →
Who Is America?
I am as guilty as anyone of slipping into the lazy language of referring to only part of the American landmass as 'America', but I do recognise that is what it is - a habitual response to an undeserved naming right. America is a two (joined ) continent agglomeration of independent nation states stretching from... Continue Reading →
