	BBC NEWS \| World \| Middle East \| Colonel Gaddafi's Libya
		The main thrust was to remove all traces of imported ideologies like capitalism and communism, and all signs of foreign influence, before building a new society based on the basic principles of Islam and home-grown socialism.
		The signs are, too, that another member of the Gaddafi family - the colonel's second son, Seif al-Islam - is a growing power in the land.
		Col Gaddafi is intent, perhaps, to ensure that his idiosyncratic years as leader are left as a stamp on the country by the rise to power and possible succession of one of his sons.

	Amazon.com: Colonel Redl: DVD: István Szabó,Klaus Maria Brandauer,Hans Christian Blech,Armin Mueller-Stahl,Gudrun ... (Site not responding. Last check: )
		"Colonel Redl" could almost be called a 'chamber Lawrence': in the film, Redl gains no experience in the field; his exploits are mainly political, something he hates, yet is quite adept at manipulating.
		"Colonel Redl" is the middle film of Istvan Szabo's "trilogy of betrayal and political murder" that he made with the actor Klaus Maria Brandauer in the 1980's.
		This film was made in Hungary in 1985 while it was still a Communist state, so if I'm not mistaken "Colonel Redl" is a veiled critique of the way the Communists used and abused their secret policemen in order to spy on citizens and crush dissenters.

	The Mavens' Word of the Day

		This pronunciation, derived from coronel, is the one that has persisted, while the spelling colonel has become the written standard.

	Le Colonel Chabert: Hydra (Site not responding. Last check: )
		In fact the vast mechanism that is capitalism is not a self-propelling automaton, but of course a system operated and reproduced by people, largely against their will, requiring active performance from a significant minority, passive consent of a larger minorty and the deliberate, violent, and predemeditated repression of the incessantly resisting majority.
		Colonel, it's an odd charge to call me paternalist.
		But much more fundamentally, before you can declare so simply that "people in Venezuela" are doing or deciding this, that, or the other, you have to consider the ways in which that popular subject is first produced.
