"What is notable about the latest tranche of Epstein files is how suggestive they are of a worldview associated with conspiracy theorists. Epstein was at the centre of a global network of powerful figures from both sides of a supposed but in reality largely performative political divide between the left and right. The glue that appears to have bound many of these figures together was their abusive treatment of vulnerable young women and girls. Similarly the photos of rich men with young women suggest that Epstein accumulated either formally or informally kompromat incriminating evidence that"

"When Russia invaded Ukraine the western media did not weigh the justifications for Moscows invasion or offer context as they are now doing over the lawless attack on Venezuela. They responded with shock and outrage. They were not calm judicious and analytical. They were indignant. They warned of Russian expansionism. They warned of Putins megalomania. They warned of the threat to international law. They emphasised the right of Ukraine to resist Russia. In many cases they led the politicians in demanding a stronger response. None of that is visible in the coverage of Maduros abduction or"

For decades Europe has been simply hanging on to the coat-tails of a US military behemoth in the hope that it would protect us. But in a world of diminishing resources the US is showing quite how ready it is to turn on anyone including its supposed allies for a bigger share of global wealth. Just ask Greenland and Denmark.

I'd add a further point: Israel's acknowledged use of agents in subverting Iran fomenting opposition targeting strikes militates against any effort to liberalise Iran for obvious reasons. Greater political freedoms would greatly increase Israel's ability to carry out enemy operations from within. If liberals really want a more liberal Iran as they claim they should be campaigning against Israeli infiltration of Iran."
