William Henry - 21st Century Palimpsests


I'm almost sure that William Henry knows more than anyone apart from the Pentagon about how much voodoo was involved in the American invasion of Iraq. But he never quiet comes out and says US defence is run by men who follow tales of Nebuchadnezzar and chase potions and fragments of manuscript with deadly killing machines to fulfil their role in the current cycle. 

He is however an excellent researcher though I would love to hear him say a swear word now and again. His altar boy enthusiasm is too saccharine for me and when he gets together with Whitley Strieber they're like two faux curiosity game show participants scratching each other's balls while dancing out their roles to Kabuki theatre lines of co-promotion. Good researcher though. Knows his stuff.
