OF THE
TIMES
on that basis decided it wasn't worth listening to?"Colonel Douglas MacGregor."
the title could of had a positive spin, instead of negative, in which case I might have given it a listen.Well, at times a positive spin doesn't tell the story - and in this case, that's definitely true. I look for information that seems to be grounded in a clear and well-founded perspective, and don't worry much about whether it is "positive" (i.e., telling me what I prefer to hear), or "negative" (challenging to my current thinking). Neil Oliver says at the end that he always considers himself educated by Colonel MacGregor. I concur. The man is a careful observer and thinker, and has developed a clarity of perspective on international politics that is very impressive, whether you agree with his conclusions or not. I very much appreciate his generosity with sharing his thoughts.
I often wonder how much is scripted bs.
