Vaclav Klaus, the free world's last honest politician: the West’s lies about Russia are monstrous.


There are few people in politics who will say in public the things that really think, thanks to the hypersensitivity of the American political establishment and their enthusiasm for bombing the crap out of anyone who upsets members of their anointed minorities. Its refreshing then to learn of comments made by veteran Czech Republic leader, putting the boot into the cowardly mealy mouthed sum who pass for conservative and libertarian politicians in the English Speaking countries.

Why Do Government Information Technology Projects always Screw Up?

While scientists burble excitedly about the internet of things, computer-brain interfaces that will enable the government to control us from data centres, creating human / computers hybrids and other science fantasy rubbish as if any of it stands a chance of becoming reality, government Information Technology managers, with almost unlimited resources at their disposal, can't even manage to cobble together a simple database and search routine. The failure of the e borders project is the latest in a long line of screw ups.

The Third Gulf War Has Started - Should Britain Get Involved

For the third time in twenty five years a British Prime ~Minister has led the nation into a war in Iraq. It's understandable that Iraqis might be a bit pissed off with us. This time the threat is not a brutal dictator like Saddam Hussein or Muammar Gadaffi, the Libyan leader we helped depose, but Islamic State, a concept, an idea, but also a rabble of bloodthirsty maniacs funded by European and American money, armed with European and American weapons and trained by European and American 'military advisers.

Reintervention: Algeria considering US, France request to ‘facilitate’ Libya military strikes

Even as their heads are still reeling after the earbashing they got from Britain and Gemany when they held out the begging bowl looking  for support in a new war against ISIS Islamic State In Syria and Levant or something (a terrorist group many pundits was say was created by the FUKUS axis - France, the UK and USA) as they armed and trained various Islamists for the overthrow of Assad in Syria) America's Dumb and Dumber team, Barack Obama and John (Herman Munster) Kerry are trying to reignite another war that ended in abject failure.

 This time they are looking to involve Algeria as their proxy now that somebody in The Pentagon has decided it would be a good idea to finish the job they started with their 'humanitarian' bombing campaign that deposed Gaddafi (and killed thousands of innocent  Libyans in the process.

The consensus opinion of these pundits is that the west is currently not winning in the war of political manoeuvreing because of the failure of American leadership. This is untrue, most of the problems exist because America has been  leading the world towards war for some time now.

 G77 Nations vow to destroy America’s New World Order

 By leading the G7, G8 and G20 economic groups for the past few decades the US government has managed to exploit its status as holder of the global reserve currency until it appeared on the brink og global economic hegemony. The Americans overplayed their hand however, became too blatant in their bullying of smaller nations and helping corporate interests override national laws. Now the world is closing ranks against the USA. Can't say we're sorry.
