How NATO Recklessly Poked the Bear

I have rather a soft spot for Caitlin Johnstone, one of the few sane voices, it too often seems, left on the left. Johnstone has resolutely defended free speech. Vainly, it too often seems, she has tried to remind leftists that, having enabled censorship of the right, they will be

Remember the Battles of Grozny 1994-5 and 1999-2000

This was not unmerited — but the one-eyed hyper-focus of the media left the bigger picture entirely obscured. There is no doubt
