I thoroughly enjoyed that. An insightful read for any soul. I found myself feeling quite inspired by ol' Bucky too!

For those still struggling with the idea that US (and Canadian, and British, etc.) intervention in Afghanistan was not actually moral, based on CIA concocted slogans like "Girls in school" - here's a whole lot of the story which never made it into the western press at all, including why the Taleban had any support at all (because what they displaced really was a western created nightmare).

Truly superb article from Alan Macleod and MintPress - also disturbing as hell.

I’ve mentioned the uniquely impactful and insightful economist Michael Hudson in a few of my recent pieces – here is an especially fine and up to date interview with him, about the specific subject of that fast-approaching brick wall, and all of our foreheads at once.

When I say Sean Foo is amazingly clear about usually complex and murky financial issues, I'm not kidding - here he is hitting it out of the park, on the new trade deal between Canada and China
