The siege of Venezuela

I taught Greek for 45 years, and never realized that the siege of Troy was for the benefit of the Trojan people. But Bolton tells us that we’re throttling Venezuela “for the benefit of the Venezuelan people.” It is a de facto siege. Equating sanctions to siege warfare has long since been done. The Nation published Joy Gordon’s essay Sanctions as Siege Warfare in 1999. For many years I taught a course on the Greek historians in English.

Mar 25, 2019 @ 15:46 – I had the opportunity to share my analysis on a sensational episode of Sputnik radio’s popular podcast ‘Trendstorm’, hosted by Andrew Korybko, on the events now underway in Serbia. The podcast can be heard in the bar right below: What you hear are two sides of a story, the first, my own, explaining the Western plot to remove Vucic. The other, you hear, are the talking points being used by the US backed ultra-nationalist opposition. I explain my points succinctly enough in the podcast, what comes here is a deeper discussion… Continue ->

Members of parliament can support the agreement if they are confident that May will not be in power at the next stage of negotiations with the European Union.
