Globetrotting Asia Times journalist Pepe Escobar discusses the US’s complicated relationship with Hugo Chavez; South America’s independent economic and political union; the push to end the supply-side war on drugs; why NATO won’t be able to bomb their way to regime change in Syria; instability in Jordan; why sanctions aren’t winning any hearts and minds in Iran; oil pipeline politics in the Middle East and Central Asia; and why the big Western energy corporations are losing the Great Game.
