The food crisis in the poor world and the problems of overconsumption and waste in the richer world cannot be resolved without addressing the global corporate food system. This is the real root cause, says Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed

When it comes to the debate on the “new imperialism”, writes Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed, the historical realities of Western involvement in Iraq are carefully ignored. What we have perpetrated, and continue to perpetrate, is no less than a protracted 90-year Holocaust.

Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed examines the background to the latest attempted terror attacks in Britain, asking how precisely involved the British government is in a self-defeating strategy that consciously compromises civilian life.

Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed considers the root of “violent extremism” closer to home, and the impact Blair’s resignation is likely to have on it.

MI5’s increasing defensiveness, oversensitivity to criticism, and ritual denials of evidence from its own officers bear witness to the validity of the questions that 7/7 survivors and families, journalists, investigators, opposition MPs and the public at large are asking. But we will never have the answers, writes Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed, without an independent public inquiry.
