Released in conjunction with Peter Dale Scott's "lost" article (read "stolen by the CIA in 1970") originally intended for Ramparts, we present a 2011 debate between the two top experts on the Postwar Southeast Asian heroin traffic: Professors Peter Dale Scott and Alfred McCoy.

I add some context at the beginning which will hopefully be of interest to everybody!

Peter Dale Scott is the prolific poet, historian, and political theorist who gave us parapolitics as well as the deep politics approach.

Alfred McCoy is History Professor Emeritus at the University of Wisconsin and the author of The Politics of Heroin—now in its third edition.

Apologies for the weird noises during the debate. We have no idea exactly what was making that intermittent whirring and clicking noise.

Special thanks to Casey Moore for the episode art and Dana Chavarria for the sound engineering!

Dr. Vladimir Kozin discusses the Ukraine conflict and explains that Kiev and NATO are the aggressors against the Russian Federation. The U.S. is threatening the use of nuclear weapons on NATO's eastern flank and has abrogated all arms control agreements. There is little no communication between either side. The Pentagon has stated this war of attrition will continue for at least five years. The western and eastern blocs are fast approaching a Third World War. He comments on Western "state terrorism" (e.g. Nord Stream), Color Revolutions, and believes COVID-19 was a U.S. biological weapon. The West seeks a strategic Russian defeat but Dr. Kozin believes Moscow will win.

The Post World War II System Of Hidden Finance - Joseph P. Farrell, #306

Après nous avoir éclairés de manière tout à fait impressionnante sur la menace terroriste, en février 2015, peu après les attentats de Charlie Hebdo et au supermarché Hyper Casher, Alain Chouet revient nous parler de la violence terroriste. Face à la masse d’informations, d’analyses et d’opinions, comment l’ancien chef de renseignement de sécurité voit-il la situation ? Quelles explications peut-on donner à la violence terroriste ? Quelles en sont les véritables racines ?
