The West?s Cold War-era doctrine of mutually assured destruction relied on rational actors. Iran is not rational, says Clive Pinder. It is eschatological. Islamism is not a deterrable enemy. It is a theological death cult.

Sceptics lose all their scepticism when faced with claims the Government could block out the Sun, says Ben Pile. But this is no less a delusion of grandeur than the idea human CO2 emissions are controlling the temperature.

We can only hope and pray that the beast eats it's own tail in the next 5 -10 years and Bradley manning , Leonard Peltier etc can literally walk out of the jails that hold them and into a completely changed world. Because if the present paradigm continues as it is then god help us all , barring a complete sea change in politics , law and modern civilisation people like Bradley are very unlikely to see justice.
