Guest: Ben Aris, editor BNE IntelliNews

Originally recorded: July 13, 2022

We're reposting our interview with Ben Aris on the economic war side of the Ukraine war, plus our discussion on the Ethiopia wars — made possible by the mighty War Nerd Legion.

First, we update the latest from Ethiopia's insurgencies in Tigray and Oromia...then we discuss some of the latest grim war news out of Ukraine & consider the not-so-deeper meaning of NPR's attempt at historical war analogy + the Kagan Industrial Complex's strange flirtation with truth bombs...

At 43:27 - we talk with Ben Aris (ep #320, #316) about the G-7's economic war on Russia, and all the unintended consequences and boomerang effects it's having on the home countries & the world.

I enjoyed this episode very much. Then I clicked on the BNE website and noted the all too familiar sulfurous aroma of MI6. Speaking of Intelligence pretending to be Media, would love to see an episode focusing on the Church Committee hearings in the US rather than just a passing reference here and there. And an episode about COINTELPRO. Ward Churchill's books from the 80's were a thorough indictment of COINTELPRO and I suspect the real reason he was unceremoniously ejected from the Academy. But I've only been a subscriber from Day 1. Don't listen to me.

There are some interesting insights, but you guys have to understand that this guy is by no means qualified to be doing this kind of sprawling analysis.
