ARUNDHATI ROY, perhaps the most important writer in the English language today.....
MSI,
Re: Remarkable series of interviews ---
Amy Goodman is having a heck of a week at Democracy Now!
democracynow.org
Today's second hour interviewee was Gore Vidal. Among other topics, he discussed his relationship with Timothy McVeigh at great length and has me now re-considering what I thought to be true about the terrorist incident at the Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City. As with the events of 9/11, we have an official cover-up, apparently a patsy used as a decoy to distract the American public and a very murky and sordid story unfolding about FBI malfeasance in the matter.
Never more than ever we must ask:
Quis custodes ipsos custodes?

Vidal is in fine form today.

Re: Thanks for the Arandati Roy interview link. A kind and gentle individual with common sense cutting the legs out from under the royal globalists.
I'm a huge fan of Ms. Roy. She epitomizes the ideals of a true democrat. For lurkers, here's a few links that may be of interest:
