While I'm here, I may as well mention my disappointment with Sleboda's analysis of the fall of Syria.
Sleboda blamed Assad for the overthrow of the Syrian government, spurning the advances of Russia and approaching the GCC for funds to rebuild Syria instead.
Sleboda made a throw away remark that Russia had vetoed the involvement of Iran in training and arming the Syrian military b/c Russia feared it would lead to sectarianism. Had he known and met Syrians of various faiths and none (as I have), he would have known that they regard themselves as Syrians first, with ethnicities and religions second (apart from some Kurds, it appears).
No wonder Iran had doubts about Russian largesse, given the pre-conditions involved!
Vanessa Beeley has exposed Russia's role in the Syrian travesty, which flat out exposes Sleboda's analysis as being the "hollowed out shell" he likes to throw around.
