“The machiavelian threefold game of the neoconservatives”, by Laurent Guyénot. Who are the neoconservatives?
The neoconservative movement, which is generally perceived as a radical (rather than “conservative”) Republican right, is, in reality, an intellectual movement born in the late 1960s in the pages of the monthly magazine Commentary, a media arm of the American Jewish Committee, which had replaced the Contemporary Jewish Record in 1945. The Forward, the oldest American Jewish weekly, wrote in a January 6th, 2006 article signed Gal Beckerman: “If there is an intellectual movement in America to whose invention Jews can lay sole claim, neoconservatism is it.

Turkey crosses into Syria: Unipolar Conspiracy or Multipolar Coordination? - Fort Russ. August 24, 2016 - It’s very fashionable nowadays for people to criticize the Kremlin for incompetency, and its recent history of controversial decisions coupled with the suspected liberal fifth-and-six-column infiltration of key national institutions gives plenty of ground for this, but sometimes people jump the gun, such as when accusing Russia of being ‘duped’ by Turkey.
It’s interesting that no such criticisms are publicly leveled against Iran despite Tehran bending over backwards to Ankara during and after the failed pro-US coup attempt against Erdogan, but double standards are the norm when people engage in diatribes, and it’s always been the case that Russia has caught much more flak than anyone else whenever multipolar commentators critique their own camp.

Such a place is Lycia, an ancient territory part of the vast continuum of Anatolia civilization that stretches from the most distant recorded past through to the modern era.
I have enjoyed time spent wandering in the part of the Taurus Mtn range here it mets both Caria and Phrygia, places of antiquity where the ruins of cities and temples abound, and close by to where renowned names such as Anaximander & Diogenes speculated upon our universe and its origins.

Yet, having given myself the task of following up on the last story with one titled "The Myth of Capital," I've spent the intervening time circling around it, like a matador testing the reflexes, gauging the strength of an angry and dangerous bull ... maintaining an appropriate distance.
And I'll admit to feeling some trepidation about the task. The Devious Dervishes of Turkish Banking: part two (with images) · SuaveBel. While I could earn around 10% with my paper savings in a lira time deposit, to me it was important to be gradually switching all my fiat assets into some form of hard asset.
By buying the Meskuk and Ziynet coins produced by the State Mint I had a widely recognizable and easily convertible store of asset, with little premium over the cost of minting since the Turkish mint produces the largest number of gold coins in the world. The Ziynet has a more decorative function, often sold with an brass hook soldered on for threading onto a chain to make a bracelet. The ¼ Ziynet is a common gift for weddings and other occasions. The Meskuk, derived from an Arabic word for coin, comes in four different sizes, from 1.8 to 36 grams, is issued with a year date that is based upon the year of the Republics’ founding, 1923. Both Meskuk and Ziynet are legal tender, though the face value is not recorded on the coin, and both have a purity of 91.66 or 22 karat.
