OK, here's another from me. This is the heavy metal band Pantera covering Black Sabbath's "Planet Caravan". Don't worry, though, it's really chilled out and not a metal song - it's great to listen to if you're a bit stoned or drunk, especially the amazing guitar solo at the end.

That's interesting, thank you face

I just recently re-watched the World at War and all I can say is thank fuck that the same crazyness that propelled him to the top ultimately defeated him.

As far as I can tell he's something along the lines of Pim Fortuyn, a sort of populist social system mixed with US style Libertarian crazyness.

Is it just me that thinks he looks like a children's birthday clown without the make-up?

Sorry

Welcome to...errr...the medieval age Saudi Arabia

Leaving aside the Buddhism stuff which isn't my thing, the tibetans have the right to self-determination and I hope that it takes as little death and suffering as possible to achieve it.

i think maybe what salim means is there no point in some of the arguments in this thread, and i think mandy just feels this kinda unwittingly adds to the war drums against iran - it could seem to some that it goes along nicely with the majority of the media in portraying them badly, although of ...

Remember we've got that meeting with Cheney tomorrow Kate. He's going to tell us the action plan against Iran.....oh wait....oops I've said too much.....

By showing the discrimination against gays is world-wide and isn't restricted to one country (Iran) which seems to be uniquely targeted at the moment. Isn't this hypocrisy and double-standards which we have seen and discussed so much on in regards to Palestine / Israel. Indeed, before criticising ...

the essay doesn't attack Iran at all - the culmination of Kate's research was that there is no clear evidence either way.

I felt the article still came out against Iran, especially the view that the huge number of sex changes "is actually symptomatic of the inherent homophobia". To me, it is a ...

It's a pity this thread has died, so I thought I'd bring it back

From Sad Songs for Dirty Lovers, just a really fantastic band, who write some deeply beautiful songs.

That's exactly how I view the world. The Left's main obstacle is its honesty. Right-wingers prosper because they don't care about lying and bending truths to suit them. The Left, or at least MY Left, is obsessed with the truth no matter how harmful to our own cause. That's why I never try and "spin ...
