There are a number of opinions concerning the definition of geopolitics. It is regarded by some as a science embracing geography, history, political science and international relations. To that definition I would add cognisance of cultural, economic, ethnic and religious factors. Thus, this Blog will include and deal with a wide range of issues and how geopolitics relate to the Global Power contest.

Wikileaks, a Movement
Rumoured attempts by Australia to withdraw Assange's passport will not deter Wikileaks. It is more than a website, and more than Julian Assange. It is now a Movement, one for transparence in foreign policy and for putting an end to hypocritical public utterances by governments. Crowley's statement that US diplomats are only diplomats is nonsense, a blatant lie. Every US embassy employs in its staff a "political officer" whose job is to gather intelligence. Yet the spineless US media never questions such assertions.
