Report: Munk Debate on Humanitarian Intervention
admin @ December 17, 2008 # One Comment
Christiane Amanpour’s CNN special tonight “Scream Bloody Murder” on genocide was quite timely after this week’s Munk Debate on Humanitarian Intervention. Both events posed the question of whether the international community has an obligation to intervene in situations of genocide and other man-made crises when a country is unable to protect itself? The most obvious example that comes to mind is that of Rwanda in the early 1990s…

Preview: Segment of 8 Part Interview w. Robert Young Pelton
admin @ July 18, 2008 # No Comment Yet
The following interview w/ Robert Young Pelton was conducted for a radio program and for 2 European print magazines, both now defunct. However the information and clarity that Pelton offers during the course of the interview clarifies his position and reasons for writing Licensed to Kill:Hired Guns In The War On Terror.
Speaking candidly about Blackwater, Eric Prince, Sandline, Tim Spicer, media manipulation, marketing, and a wide array of subjects, we see why Pelton’s writing is often misinterpreted despite his own clarity. Many come to his work with their own preconcieved notions and try to superimpose their politics on his frank and honest reportage.
As once written in a brief for a 2002 interview with Salon.com,”Robert Young Pelton, author of “The World’s Most Dangerous Places,” says the U.S. military has killed “thousands and thousands” of people in Afghanistan, al-Qaida is a myth and the WTC was brought down by a “Mickey Mouse” outfit.”
Pelton would know however. He has been there.
