Blair’s Sister-in-Law with a Message from Iran
Sep/100
‘Dear Tony,
Congratulations on your political memoir becoming an instant bestseller. I’m in Iran and have the only copy in the country. I can tell you, it’s so fiercely fought over, it’s worth its weight in WMD’s. Note to Random House; have ‘A Journey’ translated into Farsi and Arabic ASAP, it’ll fly off the shelves in this part of the world.
Tony, yesterday I went to Al Quds day protest in Tehran. You may have heard of it? It’s the rally where Iranians gather to protest against Israel’s illegal occupation of Palestine, including the Holy city of Jerusalem (al-Quds).
I’m being sarcastic by asking if you’ve heard of Al Quds day, because I know you have. It is your very worst nightmare right? After all Tehran is the place where politics and Islam intertwine.’

Iraq: End of Combat Yields Surge of Contractors
Sep/100
‘Even as President Obama claimed this week that the end of combat operations in Iraq “completes’’ a transition in which Iraqis have taken responsibility for their own security, he knows that the US pullout is not as thorough as he let on. The American presence takes the form not just of uniformed personnel — tens of thousands of whom will remain — but also of largely unaccountable private security contractors, whose numbers are likely to grow.
The number of US troops in Iraq peaked at 169,000 in 2007, and by following through on a planned withdrawal Obama has at least signficantly lowered America’s official exposure. This is no small step in a war that President Bush began under false pretenses and that has cost the lives of more than 4,400 American soldiers, 10,000 members of Iraq’s security forces, and at least 100,000 Iraqi civilians.
But while Obama talked about the 50,000 troops that will stay in “advising and assisting’’ roles, he made no mention of our shadow private military. With our troops leaving, the State Department confirmed (after it was brought to light by the New York Times) that it will increase its private security contractors to protect diplomats from its current 2,700 to between 6,000 and 7,000 people. In keeping mum about private security contractors, Obama is following in Bush’s murky tradition.’

Credo Mutwa – Before my Eyes Close in Death
I went recently to the Kalahari region of South Africa to spend time with my great, great friend and soul-mate, the Zulu sanusi (high shaman), Vusamazulu Credo Mutwa.
The hours and hours of my interviews with Credo, and so many off-the-cuff moments, were shot by another great friend, Bill Ryan of Project Avalon. Here Bill asks Credo to say a few words at the start of the day to check the microphone levels and what followed was not ‘one-two, one-two’, but a passionate defence and advocacy of Africa, the continent he loves so, so much.
At nearly 90 years of age, he puts to shame all those who sit on their arse and do nothing, and worse, those who seek to undermine and feed off those who are trying to do something.
He doesn’t believe himself to be a colossus, like all extraordinary people he doesn’t appreciate his own magnificence. But a colossus he is …
