Common Abbreviations & Terms

This publication is not beholden to any outside influences. Opinions expressed are based on the author's independent interpretation. Herein lie veridical figures.

Postings are written by the listed author. They are based on factual analysis. Facts and figures are provided by independent media sources. Posts may change after the date posted for grammatical reasons, but remain conceptually inert unless otherwise noted. I strongly recommend reading links within any article's body; they are relevant. Readers can keyword search any term at the top of the page.

This publication demands a keen understanding of current events. All postings are temporal and thorough discernment requires a comprehensive following of events throughout the world. Postings are written with the assumption readers will be able to keep abreast, though requests for clarifications will be honored if possible. Many postings build on similar themes or continue the subject of a previous post.

This publication regards all political matters as subjective and thus open to argument and interpretation. To oversimplify, the editorial slant is fiscally conservative & socially moderate with a hint of libertarianism. These terms are restrictive and far from all encompassing. The views expressed here have been described by outsiders as 'neo-conservative' and 'neo-liberal'; proving the ineptitude of such labels (a necessary evil, I suppose). Readers are encouraged to formulate their own opinions and challenge assertions made within this publication.

Remarks made in italics (or parenthesis) are usually meant as a sort of soliloquy, with a touch of acerbity. If in italics and parenthesis, it's almost certainly a foolhardy statement.
