Francis, Karekin II and the Armenian genocide
Approaching the centennial of the first genocide of the Twentieth Century (which set the path for the subsequent ones) Turkey still refuses to acknowledge its responsibility, and for good reasons: there’s a claim for reparations by the victim’s relatives. If the Western nations were reluctant to press Turkey for geopolitical reasons while there was a […]

Spy vs Spy
November 14, 2013
The Snowden case picked up last month around the “outrageous” scandal of NSA’s wiretapping of friends and allies. As Nancy Becar of AP points out, there’s not a sacred ground to the intelligence business. Not even between best friends, as Niccolo Machiavelli made it clear many centuries ago. True, moral outrage and public hypocrisy is […]
The Castro vs USA soap-opera
November 1, 2013
The ritual repeat itself every year: the United Nations condemn the American blockade on Cuba (only USA and Israel disagree). The USA government invoke the lack of democracy in Cuba while goes to feed the starving people of the “democratic” North Korea regime and buy tons of electronics from the “democratic” Chinese regime.

This is what I thought of the brief Andres Oppenheimer’s piece I had to illustrate for […]

This is his final show in my blog. I did this caricature some years ago and always felt some kind of attachment to it. By that time the official propaganda presented him as a peaceful yet resolute man. So, I thought of those traditional chinese image of a serene, fatty Buddha (in fact a syncretic […]
Obama heads on to the Pacific exit door
November 25, 2011
As the events in the East side of the Atlantic show no sign of recovery from the crisis in the short-term, Obama recalls his Hawaiian roots and a rediscovered Pacific vocation. So, he gathered some of the countries with shores in the great ocean for a conference in his natal island, and then started the usual “good […]
China’s “Subtle Power”
September 20, 2011
Joseph Nye’s notion of “soft power” as a complement to military “hard power” has brought confidence to American strategists in their ability to attract and influence the best intelligences of the world. Now, after a decade of focusing in the “war on terror” and its disastrous economic and social showing, it’s time to take notice […]
