    A leader of jihadist militia Jaysh-al-Islam has been arrested in France on war-crime charges. Yet Turkey now openly funds and controls Jaysh-al-Islam - and has transplanted the militia to NE Syria to participate in forcible demographic change.

    It's remarkable what NATO allies get away with when it comes to suspicious commercial airline crashes. Never admit a thing, and classify evidence relating to the mysterious crash under "national security".

    We put together an episode on the forgotten Dhofar Rebellion in Oman. "Forgotten" should be an active verb, the way "disappeared" has become.

    As a footnote to the recent episode on the Dhofar insurgency, (  )  I thought I'd post a quick thread touching on the interesting story of the (Shah's) Iranian participation in that counterinsurgency campaign.  1/

    We discussed little-known 1983 Beirut embassy bombing that killed 8 CIA officers, worst CIA defeat since Vietnam & how this story was buried by docile US media. Thanks to for finding (only?) contemporary article on it, in , archived in CIA online.

    Especially good: the "Revolutionary Portraits" part of Chapter 5 in Monsoon Revolution. The two central figures, Laila Fakhro and Abdel Muni'm al Shirawi, are just magnificent. And totally forgotten. Read the account of Abdel Muni'm's capture and you'll be awed...

    Purge the universities of Kremlin sympathizers! Scholars who say anything in the classroom that converges with the Russian view of history or politicas are enemies of the state and must not be allowed to corrupt our precious western children. Parrot US/UK perspectives!!!

    We both refer to this book Monsoon Revolution in the episode. We tried our best to get the author as a guest, but no luck. It's an excellent book.

    UK propaganda system functions because it is a reward system. And where the rewards lie is clear. On left: what happens if u investigate crimes of official enemies of your state. On right: what happens if u investigate the much bigger crimes of ur own state and its allies.

    Dhofar rebels wanted egalitarianism & end to colonial feudalism. Britain wanted Oman’s oil & strategic airbases. So the Brits exterminated leftist Dhofar rebels & propped up medieval dictatorships under Sultan Taimur, then his son Qaboos, who recently died.

    This will probably become an infamous "last post before intensive care" but this Coronavirus thing—I don't quite get it. We're in a mostly—Chinese highrise in Bangkok. Plenty of face masks, and they've put hand sanitizer by the elevators, but it doesn't feel like a big panic...
