  • Why on Earth
    Why on Earth would a guy like Trump welcome an endorsement from persons who have so much on tape that contradicts exactly what he has beensaying? RFK had a worm in his brain! Tulsi Gabbard would have told Winston Churchill to negotiate with Hitler. Meanwhile, where was… Read more: Why on Earth
  • If one is an Atheist
    The Atheist view of the world would have to disapprove on principle every regime that has a religious basis behind its “right” to rule. Such rule would by definition be discriminatory. That would leave out all the “Islamic” republics such as Iran as well as the Taliban… Read more: If one is an Atheist
  • amazing
    Moscow Margery. Its amazing how gullible people can be.
  • heads in the sand
    As usual, everyone in the Middle East has buried their heads in the sand – talks past each other and only thinks from their sole point of view. As an American – the principle of the US government Constitution starts with “We the people”. It does not… Read more: heads in the sand
  • John Bolton’s view
    The Iran regime is not a regime that should be supported in any way BUT at the same time lets get the facts straight. John Bolton has always had hawkish views but he also is a selective student of history. The point is simple. Whether we like… Read more: John Bolton’s view
  • Iran-Israel
    Interesting to hear Senator Marco Rubio on CNN discuss the Iran-Israel news of yesterday. He refers to Israel as the “Jewish State”. By definition he calls it a state based on one ethnic group/religion. Very different from how the US Constitution defines the US. Very different from… Read more: Iran-Israel
  • Iran vs Israel and Trump
    It is amazing and a great lesson in marketing that if one is prepared to outright lie it is a great advantage and nearly impossible to counter. In politics we have no restrictions like we do in product advertising. You cant say a bottle of sugar water… Read more: Iran vs Israel and Trump
  • Surprise!
    Israelis must be scratching their heads in disbelief these days. Most governments and Westerners generally have been too afraid to criticize Israeli for fear of being branded “anti semitic”, Israel has become used to getting away with anything. The IDF in Gaza and Netanyahoohoo have changed all… Read more: Surprise!
  • Inconvenient truths and learning from history.
    The US Constitution was written before the realities of today were known. Checks and balances is a great idea BUT there are no checks and balances when it comes to Lobbies and lets face it, lobbies and interest groups are rarely evenly matched with opposing ones. The… Read more: Inconvenient truths and learning from history.
  • Israel & Hamas
    Sat April 6 What is the difference between Hamas and Israel? Each side points fingers at the other and both miss the point, 1. Israel is a state built as a “homeland for the Jews” . Zionism is all about creating a place for Jews – and… Read more: Israel & Hamas

Biography

Miles Axe Copeland III is an articulate and charismatic businessman, entrepreneur and influencer, with a track record of being at the forefront of innovation in the music and entertainment industries. His constant focus on evolution and revolution is dominant throughout his varied and successful career, which spans five decades and is littered with household names.

From being at the centre of the British ‘progressive rock’ and ‘punk rock’ scenes in the late sixties and seventies, to launching record labels and managing hugely successful bands and musicians such as The Police, Sting, Squeeze, REM and The Bangles, Miles spent over thirty years working with artists who dominated the charts in the US, the UK and across the world.

His inspiring ability to manage and grow talent, identify and influence changes in the market, and develop highly creative and innovative promotional strategies has resulted in countless hit singles and albums, Grammy Awards, and Gold and Platinum records, as well as some surprising but hugely successful collaborations. Meanwhile, his latest series of live touring projects has focused on creating a brand that can operate successfully with whatever artists might be available at any given time, creating both ownership and longevity for each concept.

Miles’ entrepreneurial approach has enabled him to find solutions when routes to market were closed, or evolve his business model when the internet fundamentally changed the industry. His experience and vision have led to numerous speaking engagements for companies including Motorola, HSBC Bank, Vanderbilt University, The University of California, The Grammy Organization and a host of music associated media.

Miles spent his childhood and adolescence moving between the US, Syria, Egypt and Lebanon. His mother worked for British intelligence and his father was in US Army counter intelligence as well as being a founder member of the CIA. Miles’ cultural awareness and global outlook have been a common theme throughout his career, which has included boosting the popularity of Arab music and dance in the US, as well as advising the Pentagon on how to ‘win hearts and minds’ following the invasion of Iraq.
