War and Globalisation of Poverty

For people who are interested in looking at the relationship between world poverty and the export of war to countries supplying the West its energy requirements this 4 year old recording of Michel Chossudovsky giving a lecture on the topic maybe insightful.
I recommend this video to the casual visitor and hope that it will spark in you a thirst to know more about international affairs that are kept out of the mainstream news wire.

Professor Michels book The Globalisation of War is worth reading, in spite of its textbook style, as it is packed with detail, revealing an underworld of political intrigue and criminality on a scale that will make your blood boil.
