Andre Vltchek, globetrotting scourge of the Western power elite, mysteriously dropped dead while riding in a chauffeured car between Samsun and Istanbul. ABC Newsreports: Turkish authorities are investigating the death of an American author and journalist who died while traveling overnight from the Turkish Black Sea coastal city of Samsun to Istanbul, Turkey’s state-run news agency reported Tuesday.

Philosopher-Theologian John Cobb: Our Institutions Have Failed Us
Listen HERE At age 95 John Cobb continues to be one of the world’s most important thinkers. The leading light in process philosophy/theology, he has authored over 40 books and edited 16 more (including 9/11 and American Empire v.2, which I co-edited). In this interview John Cobb argues that our civilization is failing because it accepted the wrong set of ideas—among them Cartesian/Kantian dualism and materialism—a few centuries ago. Some quotes from this interview: “The (coronavirus) plague has a possibility of waking people up and moving them in the direction that might make future crises less destructive then they otherwise would…

FULL ARTICLEThe 9/11 truth case stands, peer-reviewed and unrefuted
In a comment on my recent critique of Chomsky I pointed out: There is actually a substantial peer-reviewed body of literature supporting 9/11 truth, including many books as well as dozens of articles. It isn’t “just a couple of articles by architects and engineers” (as Chomsky is still saying). By contrast, there is virtually no peer-reviewed literature at all defending the claim that the 9/11 Commission’s version is correct, or putting forth any evidence in support of this conclusion. Some anonymous coward – a troll named Omni-Putz who spends his life stalking and harassing 9/11 truth-tellers – responded: “Barrett’s facebook…
