Gilad Atzmon: London Riots and the Big Picture

Great piece. My one caveat though is that he says "Until now, I have failed to see even a single worthy analytical attempt to understand the full meaning or significance of the current violent events taking place on the streets of cities all over the UK." While the British and world press have done their usual abominable best to miscast these events, it is gross hyperbole to say there has no honest, worthwhile analysis.
