Ken, I arrived at your website and this post largely by accident. A bit of background. I was going back over some of my past material--some previously published--but much of it yet to see the light of day. In one of those articles I'd name checked (and linked) a report you wrote on the situation in Venezuela in 2019. When I tried to access it it seems your old website is now unavailable. If that article is still available I'd like to get a copy of it. If you could stop a link in your reply, I'd appreciate it.

On another note, I appreciated the candour you brought to talking about your personal situation. I did wonder what had happened to you, so now I know. All I will say is that I understood your story perhaps better than most. Glad to hear you're back on top of things. I hope we can stay in touch. Take care mon ami.

Here's my latest FYI. This explains why I was keen to seek out that article, and any other material you've written relevant to the topic at hand.

Synopsis: For those diligent students of history au fait with America’s perennial fondness for orchestrating coups and colour revolutions and the like, ousting democratically elected leaders, and generally meddling in the affairs of other nations—to all intents the mainstay of U.S. foreign policy and the wrecking ball in its diplomatic toolbox—the recent events in Venezuela will come as little surprise. Venezuela is but one of many well-documented examples of this deja vu-infused track record.

Given the supreme ironies inherent in the political imbroglio in the U.S. that attended Russia’s alleged meddling in the 2016 presidential elections, along with America’s implacable resolve to continue seeking regime change in Russia’s close ally Iran (to say little of the events in Ukraine, themselves representing hard-core blowback from a Washington engineered coup there in 2014, the ultimate aim of which was and remains to relieve its long-serving, much reviled president Vladimir Putin of the burdens of power), it’s timely we revisit some of this history.

As I’m fond of saying: There’s nothing like a deep dive into the memory hole in order to sharpen our perspective on the present geopolitical milieu and the hegemonic forces which have fashioned it. Doing so presents us an opportunity to view the situations in both Ukraine and Venezuela, the compulsive Iran regime change ‘addiction’, along with the never ending turmoil in and across the Middle East and elsewhere on the geopolitical landscape within a broader, more nuanced historical context.

Such a perspective then should come with sure signs of the existential dangers for global peace and stability and humanity at large of allowing our leaders in the West to continue, like the proverbial bull in the China shop, traipsing down this pathway unchallenged, one that is as well-worn as it’s fraught with ever greater peril.

This is the first episode in a series that explores the history and impact of the West’s interference in the affairs of other countries. Along with reminding those who may have memory holed it or not fully comprehended the implications therein, this series aims to bring this narrative to the forefront of the minds of people who are just beginning to grapple with the reality that all is not right with the world. And in doing do, then expose the role of the Anglo-American-Zionist establishment in creating that uncertainty and instability. — GM

Hey, Greg, thanks for the note and sorry for slow reply, this entire week is a complete, utter shitshow, so I probably can't reply properly until next week. But which article from 2019, I wrote a few? I'll try to find it.
