Hey, why is there a swastika on the wall over Ali's left shoulder? Kinda in quotes with little dots in each of the four square-spaces. That's odd, though I'm sure consistent with pre-Nazi uses (and not surprising to see at SOAS for that reason), it'll fuel Glenn Beck's conspiracy theorizing for a decade. :)
+Doug Tarnopol The swastika is on a wall beside a door in the photograph that is used on the banner behind Tariq Ali. The swastika is a symbol used in Hindu, Buddhist and Jain iconography - the door in the photo was in India.
thank you. exactly. has nothing to do with Nazi Swastika which i believe in counter clockwise to the millenas old symbol. if memory serves me the symbol from ancient sub continent has to do with the wheel of life. in any event it was never used for any fascist eras of India(all cultures unfortunately have fascist eras to lesser or greater degrees. the US post ww2 has been growing more towards fascism, and at the government and military level) af male american
come down further into the rabbithole after many scurrilous treaties the robbers became elderstatesmen and strutted and thieved and set themselves up to rule the tomorrow which to my chagrin happens to be today led by a bunch of comelatelies who rabidly destroy achievements fashioned over periods beyond the conception, of this sorry shower
Is he actually saying in 2016 that the healthcare system in Venezuela is worthy of anything other than contempt and frustration for the thousands who routinely die of medicine shortage or doctors shortage? Now that's what I would call a dinosaur.
Of course! here you go: I couldn't load the Amnesty International report: it's called "Venezuela in Intensive care" check it out as well.

Dinosaurs are alive and flying, you know. We call them "birds". Venezuela (and other so-called Bolivarian governments) are trying to implement North Europe-style social-democracy, this could have also been the case of Cuba except that they had no choice but to embrace the Soviet system. You can't compare Venezuela with Sweden but you can compare to Spain or Colombia, and in almost every statistic Venezuela is clearly ahead, Spain is closer to Colombia even if Spain is in Europe.

First talk I've heard of his. Very impressed with how much information he packs into one talk.
Thanks for uploading! Ali's always worth listening to; Ali's lecture starts at 5:55; the Q&A starts at 45:34.
thanks
as much as i enjoy Tariqs' talks-but this is preaching to the choir!all of his talks is to like minded people.
real freedom fighter

SOAS, University of London Thanks! I know it's an old symbol...but that's red meat to the Glenn Becks of the world. :) Thanks for a great talk.

thankyou
come down further into the rabbithole
after many scurrilous treaties
the robbers became elderstatesmen and strutted and thieved
and set themselves up to rule the tomorrow
which to my chagrin
happens to be today
led by a bunch of comelatelies who rabidly destroy achievements
fashioned over periods beyond the conception, of this sorry shower
