The Naked Face of Capitalism: Goldman Prizewinner Shoots Up Foreign Mining Firms in Mongolia

by Keith Harmon Snow from Conscious Being

Your ruling class media won't report the capitalist crimes of mining companies supported by Western government agencies and corrupted NGOs. The article is comprehensive and lengthy, but it tells the complete, tragic story of how neoliberalism functions all over the world on behalf of private interests while causing so much devastation to local societies, culture, and the environment. All the weapons of neoliberal mass destruction are illustrated in this article.

In my opinion the author is one of the finest independent investigative reporters in the world.
Keith Harmon snow is a war correspondent, photographer and independent investigator, and a four time (2003, 2006, 2007, 2010) Project Censored award winner. He is also the 2009 Regent's Lecturer in Law & Society at the University of California Santa Barbara, recognized for over a decade of work, outside of academia, contesting official narratives on war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide while also working as a genocide investigator for the United Nations and other bodies.
Keith Harmon snow traveled by mountain bicycle across central and northern Mongolia,east to west, and then back across southern Mongolia, west to east, September to October 2008. He stayed with nomads in traditional gers, or slept in a tent in remote areas, all along the way.
