Geopolitics, oil, and the ultimate inevitable celebration of the oil sands

Last century, the west scrambled to secure access to cheap energy, meaning hydrocarbons. This century, an excess of familiarity and contempt has us turning our back on that fuel source, and trying to obliterate our energy pillars (ask Shell or ExxonMobil about that). But 4 billion people in China, India, Africa and elsewhere are embarking… Continue reading → read more

The Aimless Empire

Bitter and frightening realities face us four months into Joe Biden’s presidency. On the domestic side it is a Potemkin village, behind the façades of which lies a slum of unfulfilled promises that are no longer even part of the Washington discourse. That is the bitter part. The frightening part is this: Biden and the amateurs he has named as statesmen and stateswomen do not have an inconsistent foreign policy, or a miscalculated foreign policy, or a confused foreign policy. Such shortcomings and weaknesses might be repaired. This flummoxed bunch does not have a foreign policy. An... read more

At the 1972 United Nations Conference on the Human Environment, the delegates decided to hold an annual World Environment Day.

The Ottoman-Safavid Wars

In the sixteenth century, the foremost commitment of the Ottoman sultans was not the wars with their European enemies but their religious wars with Safavid Iran. The Ottomans and the Safavids had an apocalyptic view of the conflict between them—each power was convinced that the religious truth was on its side and that the other side was indulging in heresy and had to be annihilated. Both sides wanted to claim the religious leadership of the Islamic world. Safavid Iran arose in the early sixteenth century after the fall of the Timurid Empire, which was founded by Tamerlane.

While the IRS... read more
