Last week I made the observation "The wheels of Justice grind exceeding slow" with regard to the Russiagate affair which has long dragged on, wailing plaintively for some of that justice to be served. Well, I'm happy to report that those wheels are now rolling smoothly along the track and justice will soon be seen... Continue Reading →
A Brief COVID-19 Update.
Today, as I forecast up to 2 weeks ago, the global case level has reached 4 million and I can now confidently claim there will be 400,000 deaths reported by May 22 as I also said some days ago. First we have to pass the 300,000 mark on or around May 11. The global trajectory... Continue Reading →
Whose Got The Wuhan Willies?
Whoa! What's going on? Australia going against official US opinion? How so? Well, it's quite simple really. The US administration and their intelligence (that always brings a smile to my face) community (neither of which has any 'believability' credits left in their public accounts) have a line to push. No, it's not 'Russiagate'. That one has... Continue Reading →

Some capitalists may... Continue Reading →

COVID-19 Update, May 4, 2020
Well then, as dispassionately as I can, remembering that these are people's lives being discussed, I'm going to say that it is almost exactly a week since the global total number of COVID-19 cases reached 3 million and, looking ahead, I said 4 million cases would have been counted in a little over 2 weeks...

What’s Happening In Syria?
While Syria is never far from my thoughts, nothing of any real consequence that may radically alter the situation for the better has been happening there (at least on the surface) since the so-called ceasefire in Idlib province began almost 2 months ago. Although there are fresh reports that remaining civilians trapped north of the...
