International relations, world affairs, news briefs, analysis, foreign policy, links to relevant sites, pundit reviews, and some comedy to keep it light. A silly funny often scarcastic take on power, empire, ecomimic, social, humanitarian, human rights, force projection, state interests, rogue nations, sea lanes, pipe lines, natural resources, precious metals, gold, silver, value, states, finances, idividuality, torture, coersion, inflence, politics, political establishment, and other matters.
