This week saw a state wide campaign launched in Italy to stop anorexia nervosa the psychological eating condition which overwhelmingly but not exclusively is suffered by women. There have been many campaigns to stop anorexia since the condition first gained prominence just around post-war period when Europeans generally had enough to eat again. But the campaign launched by Oliviero Toscani of Benetton notoriety could just as easily be accused of body fascism & means something more. ... read full story / add a comment

In his column in the Irish Times, the Washington Post's opinionator Charles Krauthammer has said that General Petraeus can defeat Al-Qaeda in Iraq. I disagree! Far from defeating Al-Qaeda, the US occupation provides Islamist fighters with ideal terrain on which to recruit and train to overthrow Mr Bush’s friends in the house of Al-Saud, and does nothing to prevent Al-Qaeda cells elsewhere from planning attacks elsewhere. Krauthammer’s comments bear no resemblance to the realities of fighting Al-Qaeda, and every resemblance to a propagandum formulated by the White House to justify a military strategy whose chances of success are next to nil. Krauthammer tells us nothing about Iraq, and everything about Washington. Whte House staff are sure to go on vigorously propagating this implausible "We can defeat Al-Qaeda in Iraq" message in the media in coming months. My counter-analysis provides a copyright-free debunker for reuse as needs arise. ... read full story / add a comment

The preamble to 'V':- "My Father still reads the dictionary every day. He says your life depends on your power to Master words" Arthur Scargill, Sunday Times, 10th January 1982. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_Scargill 'V', by Tony Harrison is no means his definite statement on or deconstruction of the systems of power that mitigate against people, that would involve a look at his entire work, which include his use of the Leeds vernacular in 'The Mysteries', his Translations of Seneca, which informed the 'Theatre Works', his defence of ordinary people in Bosnia, Bradford, northern ireland and his television collaborations which are collected in 'The Shadow of Hiroshima and other film poems' But in the last week the bogeys of the Thatcherite era have been re-surfacing in photo and press and contemporarising for the neo-cons..
