   I’m writing on behalf of Christina here. She says: “Thank you dear friend. Reagan and Bush did the worst damage to our image abroad and committed war crimes. We all need to realise these elements and steer away from them. I know this will happen slowly but gradually. Good luck to you as well.”

   Excellent article Moign. It is heartening to find examples of real journalism out there in contrast to the complete lack of rigour and moral ambiguity evident in our MSM, especially the BBC and major newspapers. It is so important that you continue this work so that the truth is published for all to access. I am becoming more and more convinced that a gradual, stealthy but all consuming ‘consensus’ (as opposed to an organised conspiracy) is pervading the mainstream in the west in order to escape labelling, sensure and, ultimately, ruin at the hands of the MSM/JDL/The Elite. We must be able to contrast the deceit, lies and violence inherent in the treatment of the Latin American nations with the, so-called, ‘liberation and democratisation’ of nations such as Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Palestine and, ultimately, Iran. The patterns and policies you point to in your article, evident in the US Elite’s approach to their ‘backyard’, are paralled almost exactly in the way in which the US has gone about things in the Middle-East and Caucasus. Respect and admiration to you and Christina – and all others who use their lives to counter oppression and tyranny.

     Thanx a lot Martin for words of praise and encouragement. I agree 100% with your assessment of the MSM and its affiliates. People are sick and tired of coverup stories and are looking for the ground realities of conflicts. MSM feeds the masses with ongoing stuff but seldom bothers to trace the roots of the problem and speak to the people affected by it.

     As a journalist, I believe people not only need to know the facts but also need to understand the historical context. The role of journalists in preventing wars and conflicts can certainly overweight the influences of military generals and their corporate allies…

   I assumed Hurricane Earl isn’t that devistating. Did I hear wrong?
