Editor’s Note: The 25 of April 2022 is ANZAC Day, the 107th Anniversary of the Gallipoli debacle of the even greater debacle that was the Great War 1914-1918. This was a defining moment in the history of my country Australia, though as readers will have already seen in the earlier essay, not in the way that many might interpret such a statement.

All Fire and Fury in Ukraine
The still decidedly volatile situation in Ukraine – resulting from another in that long line of US inspired regime changes that have done so much to destabilize the geopolitical landscape over the past few decades – is worth revisiting for a number of reasons. With the fourth anniversary of the coup just gone, the sudden, shock passing of veteran investigative journalist Robert Parry and Consortium News founder/editor also affords even greater impetus for doing so.
From Great Wars, Come Great Consequences
‘…[In] such trying games of conquest, results might never be expected to take shape quickly…Imperial stratagems are protracted affairs. The captains of world aggression measure their achievements…on a timescale whose unit is the generation.

Of Treachery, Treason, Terror, Truth, and Liberty Forsaken (An American Tale) - Part Two
PART TWO Many folks of a certain age will recall to this day the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962, with even those younger people given to nodding off in their high school history classes remembering at least one thing: That this was the closest the two world superpowers of the era – the Soviet Union and the United States – came to a nuclear showdown, and the world to potential annihilation.

Hillary Clinton’s House of Cards
‘My accomplishments as Secretary of State? Well, I’m glad you asked. My proudest accomplishment in which I take the most pride, mostly because of the opposition it faced early on, you know.
