Not content with turning their own urban landscapes into a series of ramshackle outhouses, the Americans have found a way to shit on Russia, turning a pristine city of art and culture into a 'dumping' ground. Don't worry muscovites, I'm sure you will soon find a way to 'flush' this 'exhibit'. A small victory over... Continue Reading →
After the Victory, comes…
Learning to run a country. The next big task for the Taliban. The easy part - getting rid of the Americans - now being over (although the door is not yet closed behind them, and it was only opened as a result of the dire condition of that nation's circumstances of slow, self-induced, self-inflicted death),...

The Unmaking of Australia

What Australia has become, is an insult to all who were involved in forming this once great nation. Great in size, great in character, and also great in... Continue Reading →

Peace Breaks Out In Afghanistan
Following the unseemly (and that is me being polite) exit of the armed forces of the one time global hegemon (now deceased) from Afghan soil, leaving as they always do from wherever they are eventually driven out, an unholy mess once again, and in spite of the lies of Western media as to what has...

A New Era Has Begun
I couldn't stop lolling (overcome by 'lols') when I read this. So, it is all over red-rover. Afghanistan is free again after 20 years of invasion and rape of the country by the dogs of war from across the Atlantic and their fawning puppies from whatever holes in the ground they were dragged out of. Game... Continue Reading →
Making What Sense Is Possible From A Bugger’s Muddle
I am developing a level of trust in Pepe Escobar's assessments of geopolitical movements in today's world. This current appraisal is no exception... 'A Saigon moment looms in Kabul' - Pepe Escobar for Asia Times The opaque mists of recent events will eventually settle down to some prescribed reality, of sorts. Of course nothing is...
