  • Renewed Farmer Agitation in India Amid Brutal Crackdown on Press Freedom

    Renewed Farmer Agitation in India Amid Brutal Crackdown on Press Freedom

    The BJP-led government in India is seeking to extract revenge for the humiliating defeat it suffered at the hands of farmers whose one-year agitation led to the repeal of three farm laws in late 2021. This claim was made during a recent press conference in Delhi held by the Samyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM) (United Farmers Front). […]

  • A Lawless Land for the Few

    Where? Everywhere the few live! But there is one land that is the most lawless ever in favor of the few from the beginning of time and evermore, the United States of America (US)! The few, of course, are the few thousand, the power elite of America’s corpocracy, its industry chieftains and subordinate poohbahs in […]

  • Behind France’s Ban on Abaya

    France’s new Education Minister, Gabriel Attal, launched the 2023 school year with a thunderous announcement: “I decided it will no longer be possible to wear an abaya at school,” he said, in the name of a preposterous conception of secularism (or laïcité) adopted by President Emmanuel Macron. This “abaya ban” is a serious violation of […]

  • A Cinematic Portrait of Graeme MacQueen, A Warrior for Peace

    A Cinematic Portrait of Graeme MacQueen, A Warrior for Peace

    It is one thing to read a review of this important and compelling film – a tour de force – and another to watch it.  The former fades into insignificance when one takes an hour-and-a-half to immerse oneself in its tragic yet revelatory story.  For in it we see and hear a dying man speak […]

  • Fruitless Gestures: Victoria Bans the Nazi Salute

    It took place with hardly any debate, though it interested some parliamentary members at the committee stage.  The Australian state of Victoria now faces laws that will lock a person up for 12 months or punish individuals with fines of A$23,000 or above if they dare enact a gesture.  That gesture is giving, with intent, […]

  • Postcards from a Police State: 22 Years of Blowback from the USA Patriot Act

    Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country. — Hermann Goering, German military commander […]

    Edwin Montagu, the Only Jew in the UK Cabinet, Opposed the Balfour Declaration and Called Zionism “a mischievous political creed”

    … while Lord Sydenham warned: “What we have done, by concessions not to the Jewish people but to a Zionist extreme section, is to start a running sore in the East, and no-one can tell how far that sore will extend.” It extends all the way to this horror-show 106 years later. What the latest […]

  • The Achilles’ Heel Of Propaganda: Julian Assange, Nick Cohen And Russell Brand

    The Achilles’ Heel Of Propaganda: Julian Assange, Nick Cohen And Russell Brand

    In the second decade of the 21st century, after much empty talk of ‘government of the people, by the people, for the people’, it was discovered that people weren’t even capable of governing their own media consumption. Huge, artificially intelligent computers revealed that while 49.5% of the population was drowning in a ‘post-truth’ sea of […]

  • Who are the Real Terrorists in the Palestine Story?

    Who are the Real Terrorists in the Palestine Story?

    I don’t think I’ve ever heard a more sickening speech from a world leader than Biden’s following Hamas’s attack on Israel, the tormentor of the Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank. His crass ignorance, prejudice and subservience to a criminal, apartheid regime, while utterly indifferent to the suffering of the Palestinian people, sets a […]
