Seyed Mohammad Marandi puts forward his view of his home nation's treatment by western media.

Well, it makes a change from being invited on everyone else's talk shows to talk about the perpetual war with Israel.

"In the first episode of Demystifying Iran, we break apart the dominant myths that shape the world’s understanding of the Islamic Republic"

Part one of several then ...  let's hope that in future episodes he will centre on providing an overview of the reality of life in Iran in all its variety, both because of, and in spite of, external "influences".

Nick Hudson - follower of the money - interviewed by Neil Oliver.

Our modern world is gradually being revealed, partly through the communicative power of the internet, and partly through the growing realisation that the world is not what we thought it was, and the many who have decided that they want to know how the world really works is now growing exponentially. AI or no AI.

Those who do know should be getting increasingly worried - but who exactly are they anyway?

As money (of whatever nature) is "what makes the world go round", those who understand the operation of the various monetary systems (lawful or otherwise) should be well placed to understand how our world operates.

We were introduced in the '80s to the ways and wiles of the Civil Service, with Jim Hacker as the hapless minister corralled into compliance by the genial Sir Humphrey Appleby (GCB KBE MBO) whose "Yes Minister" invariably meant "No Minister".

But of course time and tide wait for no man and things have evidently advanced considerably today, quite beyond the simple subterfuges that oiled (or crunched) the wheels in those heady times. Today, it seems that the bureaucrat would get the uncompliant minister sacked, whereas most reasonable voters would rightly expect the minister to sack the uncompliant bureaucrat.

Still, I'm sure that this story is simply for entertainment purposes (as was the "Yes Minister" sitcom of those innocent days) - after all, could a government really be effective if it actually worked like this in reality?

America is doing it again. And this time the gloves are really off.

If you want to hit them hard, hit them in the pocket.
