Asia Times Online :: the best of Pepe Escobar
An extreme traveler, Pepe’s nose for news has taken him to all parts of the Pepe Escobar globe. He was in Afghanistan and interviewed the military leader of the anti-Taliban Northern Alliance, Ahmad Shah Masoud, a couple of weeks before his assassination (Masoud: From warrior to statesman , Sep 11, 2001). Two weeks before September 11, 2001, while Pepe was in the tribal areas of Pakistan, ATol published his prophetic piece, Get Osama! Now! Or else … (Aug 30, 2001). Pepe was one of the first journalists to reach Kabul after the Taliban’s retreat, and more recently he has explored and reported from Iraq, Iran, Central Asia, US and China.
Pepe Escobar will be writing GLOBALISTAN: A GAZETTEER TO THE REMIXED WORLD OF THE 21ST CENTURY for Nimble Books. We’re shooting for publication in November 2006.
