"In recent years, it has become fashionable among some historians to excuse the excesses of men like these as motivated by therapeutic zeal. I don’t agree." Andrew Scull on the real horror behind Jon Stock's "The Sleep Room": lareviewofbooks.org/article/…

Hey White House, please remove the Tropic Thunder clip. We never gave you permission and have no interest in being a part of your propaganda machine. War is not a movie.

Yesterday was the anniversary of the Balfour Declaration, a series of decisions made in London by people who had never been to Palestine. The Balfour Declaration would lay the foundations for Israel, a triumph for the Jewish people, but a catastrophe for the indigenous Palestinians: 85% of Palestinians in the territory that became Israel were displaced in 1948, with about 700,000 to 750,000 people fleeing or being expelled from their homes, and many ending up on the sand dunes of Gaza where they remain under Israeli fire. Listen to our @EmpirePodUK episode on the Origins of the Arab Israeli conflict with Tom Segev share.google/848yj9clLgTFMzJ…
Tomorrow's episode is... The Origins of the Israel-Palestine Conflict @tweeter_anita @DalrympleWill are joined by Tom Segev to discuss the Balfour Declaration.

Couldn't agree more - she's a survivor
My money's on Celia for The Traitors. Anyone who survived The House of Whipcord on screen and William Sargant's sleep room in real life has got to be a front-runner. radiotimes.com/tv/entertainm…

A chilling book on psychiatrist Dr William Sargant, who used insulin induced comas and lobotomies to wipe peoples’ memories. He also advised the British Army, Mi5 and MKULTRA on the use of psychedelics to induce confessions. Having read Foucault, the Dr as priest motif is clear.

The true story of Dr William Sargant and his damaging psychiatric practices during the 1960s, this is a devasting exposé of one man’s approach to treating those with emotional and mental health needs. Can't wait to hear the author talk @MarlbLitFest bookaholicbex.wordpress.com/…
