G’day Michael, A most illuminating post my friend. That invitation BTW is still open for chat on Zoom at some point. We have much to discuss.

I find your letters very enlightening and you give in each letter references to books. As someone quite new in learning about geopolitics which I must say I am finding quite fascinating as well as frightening, I'd love to have a recommended reading list so that I learn things chronologically. From my reading since lockdown, starting with the PCR test, I learned about western medicine and of course banking and how we are, where we are now.

As things seem to be speeding up and out it exposes a great deal on all kinds of players, journalists, groups, politicians much more quickly. No easy and simple dismissals but we're all taking notes indeed.
